IPS creates “trip-lines” to sound an alarm when your network is in danger
Think back to one of those spy movies where laser sensors surround a protected area – like where a rare jewel is stored. Even if the crook gets into the building, the alarm still goes off, and they get caught red-handed.

Chandu the Magician is a fantasy-adventure with science fiction elements, done in the style of a high class serial. Though Hollywood made its share of early talkies set in the exotic Middle and Far East, nothing really comes close to matching the look of this unique film, and the lion’s share of the credit squarely falls in the hands of its famed co-director/production designer and its cinematographer, William Cameron Menzies and James Wong Howe, respectively.

Seemingly equal parts of H.

The picture is crammed with impressive visual effects, an inspired collaboration between Menzies and Howe, including numerous miniature lost temples, some impressive tracking shots through (again, miniature) catacombs and corridors, matte paintings and optical effects. Near the end there’s even an audacious attempt to stage an underwater sequence on a dry set that Menzies almost pulls off. Read the rest of this entry
