These are technical personnel such as camera operators audio engineers.
Also used as a budgeting tool - these are fixed costs (non negotiable)

10. Image Formation

11. Basic Image Formation Scanning Process PAL (Phase Alternating Line)
Mostly in Europe and some of South America
NTSC (National Television System Committee)
Interlaced scanning: beam skips every other line (odd then even)
Odd scan = one field
Even scan = one field
Both scans = one frame

12. Basic Image Formation Progressive Scanning
Beam scans each line in sequence, just like reading a book.
One full frame created per scanning cycle

13. Basic Image Formation DTV = Digital Television HDTV
480p system lines that are progressively scanned. While crisp, the picture is technically not HDTV;
720p system lines that are progressively scanned;
1080i system lines that are interlaced scanned;
Superior Picture quality and is officially classified as HDTV
1080p system – 1080 lines progressively scanned.
