There is some confusions nowadays between the functions of the art director and the production designer in feature films. Originally the production designer was someone whose scope and talents were much wider than those of the art director-his task was not only to give sketched ideas of film sets but to concern himself with every artistic aspect of the film from each individual camera set-up through to the design of the costumes and credit titles. Today the credit Production Designer is often used to cover the functions and responsibilities undertaken by the art director. 5, record 9, English, - art%20director

Thick film screen printing is the art of depositing conductive, resistive, and insulating materials on a dielectric base. This deposition is made through selected open areas in screens with inks or pastes forced through the open areas of the screen by squeegee motion onto the substrate base. In some cases, masks instead of conventional mesh screens may be used.... Thick film screen printing is commonly used for producing discrete components, hybrid circuits, large scale integration(LSI) arrays, liquid crystal displays, and dual-in-line packages(DIP). 1, record 20, English, - thick%20film%20screen%20printing
