ANALOG VIDEO SIGNAL SYSTEMS
This course will cover some of the basics of working with analog NTSC and VGA video signal systems. This will be held as a continuosly interactive Lab environment with a wide range of video cameras, video mixers, video processors, and CRT and LCD displays set up for exploring different techniques for using real time video signals for creative purposes.
Topics covered
-Tube, ccd, cmos cameras: what is unique to each?
-What are the mechanics of CRTs and LCDs?
-Fundamentals of working with hardware video mixers (wipes, keying, compositing)
-What is a TBC/frame sync
-What is DSK and how can I use this as a Cellular Automata System?
-Fundamentals of video feedback both with cameras and with the internal feedback of the mixers
