Incredible India will engage
Remarkable Indonesia with co-production of films and training of
personnel, giving a boost to tourism and the entertainment business, as
Asia s two large nations come closer on the people front.
The
two countries committed to building on their close historical and
cultural links after talks between Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
and Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono in Jakarta last week.
Recognizing the popularity and impact of films in bringing the two
people closer and promoting tourism, both sides agreed to encourage
cooperation in production and post-production between their film
industries.
Both
countries would explore joint production. Indonesians would also be
trained at the Film and Television Institute of India -Pune and the
Institute of Animation in Hyderabad, Commerce and Industry Minister
Anand Sharma shared.
Phenakistoscope (1831) A phenakistoscope disc by Eadweard Muybridge (1893).The phenakistoscope was an early animation device. It was invented in 1831 simultaneously by the Belgian Joseph Plateau and the Austrian Simon von Stampfer. It consists of a disk with a series of images, drawn on radii evenly spaced around the center of the disk. Slots are cut out of the disk on the same radii as the drawings, but at a different distance from the center. The device would be placed in front of a mirror and spun. As the phenakistoscope is spun, a viewer would look through the slots at the reflection of the drawings which would only become visible when a slot passes by the viewer's eye. This created the illusion of animation.
