So the movie lovers everywhere are able to get an overview before watching the film itself. And here we provide different things from previous reviews. And we make sure you as the movie lovers will be satisfied with it. High-definition video video higher resolution and quality from standard definition. Although there is no standard meaning for high-definition video images, generally with far more than 480 horizontal lines (North America) or 576 horizontal lines (Europe) are considered high definition. 480 scan lines are generally a minimum although most system greatly exceeded the limit. Standard resolution image captured at a rate much faster than usual (60 frames/second North America, 50 fps Europe), by high speed camera can be considered high-definition in some contexts. Several television series shot in high-definition video that is made to look as if they've been shot on film, a technique that is often known as the filmizing. HDTV broadcast systems associated with three main parameters: Frame size in pixels is defined as the number of pixels horizontal × vertical pixels, for example number of 1280 × 720 or 1920 × 1080. Often times the number of pixels horizontally are implied from context and omitted, as in the case of 720 p and 1080 p. Scanning system is identified with the letter p for progressive scanning or i for interlaced scan. Frame rate is identified as the number of video frames per second. For interlaced systems, the number of frames per second must be specified, but it is not uncommon to see a level playing field which is used instead. Naming of commercial products, frame rate often falls and implied from context (e.g., a television set 1080i). Frame rate can also be specified without a resolution. For example 24 p means 24 progressive scan frames per second, and 50i means 25 interlaced frames per second. There is no standard for HDTV color support. The color is usually broadcast using YUV (10-bit per channel) However, depending on the underlying technology produces an image of the recipient, it is then converted to RGB color spaces that use standard algorithms. When sent directly through the Internet, the colors usually pre-convert to 8-bit RGB channels for additional storage savings with the assumption that it's only viewable only on a computer screen (sRGB). As an added benefit to the original broadcaster, pre-conversion losses are basically making these files is not suitable for professional TV Broadcasting again.


THE LOVECRAFT ANTHOLOGY: Volume 1. A Graphic Collection Of H.P. Lovecraft's Short Stories

If I was to mention H.P. Lovecraft in conversation and ask you to name some stories by him, more then likely the first three would be The Call Of Cthulhu, The Dunwich Horror, and Dagon. This is not a knock on his other works or the man himself as he has a worldwide fan base. There has been countless movies based on his work, some obvious ones are THE DUNWICH HORROR (1970) and RE-ANIMATOR (1985).
His other works also got the movie treatment but these are more loosely based on versions, examples are BANSHEE CHAPTER (2013) and DIE, MONSTER DIE! (1965), to the uninitiated into his work it would be hard to spot the references. This is where SelfMade Hero's graphic novel adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's stories come in. Beautifully illustrated throughout by several artists and adapted by some of the worlds best known writers, The Lovecraft Anthology: Volume 1, is the perfect book to pick up to introduce you to the Lovecraftian world of terror. This volume contains: The Call Of Cthulhu, The Haunter Of the Dark, The Dunwich Horror, The Colour Out Of Space, The Shadow Over Innsmouth, The Rats In The Walls, and Dagon. Do not be fooled by the colourful illustrations of the Great Old Ones in this volume, as they hide a dark mysterious world full of vengeance and grotesque imagery.

It is unfortunate that his work gets more recognition after his death, but he has left an undeniable mark on the horror fiction writing playing field. Once you have read this volume you will find yourself wanting more Lovecraft in your life.

The Lovecraft Anthology: Volume 1 is published by SelfMade Hero and is out now. (120 pages, colour. Available in paperback and kindle edition.).
