The Zoom
Author: Nick Hall
Publisher: Rutgers University Press
ISBN: 0813587220
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
From the queasy zooms in Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo to the avant-garde mystery of Michael Snow’s Wavelength, from the excitement of televised baseball to the drama of the political convention, the zoom shot is instantly recognizable and highly controversial. In The Zoom, Nick Hall traces the century-spanning history of the zoom lens in American film and television. From late 1920s silent features to the psychedelic experiments of the 1960s and beyond, the book describes how inventors battled to provide film and television studios with practical zoom lenses, and how cinematographers clashed over the right ways to use the new zooms. Hall demonstrates how the zoom brought life and energy to cinema decades before the zoom boom of the 1970s and reveals how the zoom continues to play a vital and often overlooked role in the production of contemporary film and television.

Book Description
A practical guide to sales lead generation for marketing managers, sales leaders, owners & operators of B2B companies. We wrote this book because there’s an epidemic of imposter syndrome in marketing and sales professionals working in business-to-business (B2B). It was there when we started in B2B marketing 20+ years ago and it’s here today. We felt it at the beginning. And the feeling took years to overcome. You know what it’s like: I’m not a chemist. How can I market to our lab customers with any authority? I can’t even assemble my Ikea bookshelf without the instructions. How can I sell the value of these sawmills to the pulp and paper industry? The last time I tried to operate a skid steer, I was 17, and I almost flipped it. Who’s going to buy one from me when all I can tell them is they won’t flip over? I pay someone to change my car’s tires. I’ll never be able to convince Bridgestone our company’s rubber is going to make their molds more durable. After a lot of trial and error. A lot marketing books and B2B sales podcasts. A lot of long nights looking at digital marketing analytics data. A lot of detailed analyses of competing B2B brands we were freed from our own imposter syndromes. And we built a sales lead generation process that seemed logical and thorough for ourselves. We used it (still do). And it worked (still does). And even though your B2B business is unique, your online marketing challenges aren’t entirely. Getting sales leads is a heck of an ongoing challenge every B2B faces. Today, imposters unite! This book will help you overcome your imposter syndrome and teach you how to generate more sales leads with a straightforward evergreen sales-lead-generating-strategy. You’ll come out of this with more valuable, practical knowledge than the people in your B2B industry who look confident, but should actually be frozen solid by their imposter syndrome. With this book in your hands, you’ll be able to generate more inbound sales leads yourself, generate more with in-house resources, or direct and audit your 3rd party digital marketing agencies better. Your power will be increased 100X. The roadmap you used to achieve sales success in the past is in tatters. Your new roadmap has that fresh book smell in your hands. And what good would a map be without a peppering of hidden treasures? A keen eye will read this and learn important lessons about: 1. Overcoming imposter syndrome by overcoming your ideas about uniqueness. 2. Communicating with developers and designers. 3. Using AI to build remarkably deep buyer personas. 4. Selling to and working with Creators, Curators, and Conductors. 5. Doing more marketing with fewer staff. 6. Finding creative, engaging, and unique angles to speak to the humans behind B2B - something more like B2BE (the business to business end user) 7. Training and developing sales staff with less effort, a gentle learning curve, and awesome outcomes. 8. Why evergreen is the key B2B. 9. Focusing your energy on selling more B2B products that are behavior changing. 10. Finding and winning specific windows of opportunity when your sales prospect is in an elevated buying mindset. 11. Leaning on your brand story to motivate GenZ and attract marketing and sales talent. 12. The marketing mistakes brands from budding to behemoth make, and positioning yours smarter. Why listen to us instead of the "influencers"? Everything you’ve read in the last 5 minutes resonates with you. We’re practitioners in the same seat as you, and we generated more than 36,000 sales leads for our B2B manufacturers and distributors in 2023. That’s our 10th straight year doing it. We poured our experience into this book for two additional reasons (other than the imposter syndrome issue). To make money. To help you make money.

Book Description
Rockport Publishing's creative engineering extraordinaire, Lance Akiyama, returns again with The Zoom, Fly, Bolt, Blast STEAM Handbook, featuring 18 STEAM projects to get kids doing, thinking, and building! There is new emphasis in education to introduce STEM and STEAM to children earlier in life, often in elementary school.

The Zoom, Fly, Bolt, Blast STEAM Handbook gives parents and kids ages 6 to 10 a selection of 18 engaging projects to build together. And when they're finished, they'll have personalized creations that fly, race, and blast off! Make an automaton, a pneumatic machine, a suspension bridge, a flexible hand, a crash-test car, a (working) vacuum cleaner, and a dozen more ingenious, kid-tested projects. This project book is the latest title by Rockport's creative-engineering rockstar, Lance Akiyama, (who you may remember from Rubber Band Engineer, Duct Tape Engineer, and Launchers, Lobbers, and Rockets Engineer) and was made in cooperation with Galileo Learning. Galileo Learning operates over 70 innovation camps in Chicagoland and California, where Lance proudly works as a curriculum developer. Galileo's curriculum is rigorously developed by a small team of project-based learning experts, including former classroom teachers, Stanford University grads, entrepreneurs, artists, and makers.
