Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The blue screen method was developed in the 1930s at RKO Radio Pictures. ... Before digital chroma keying, bluescreening was accomplished using film. The camera color negative was printed onto high-contrast black and white film, using either a filter or the color sensitivity of the black and white film to limit it to the blue channel. Assuming this film was a negative it produced clear where the bluescreen was [and] black elsewhere ... The end result was a clear background with an opaque shape of the subject in the middle. 5, record 4, English, - blue%20screen

The pigment found by the UNC team is called cryptochrome and absorbs blue light. Sancar said there is evidence from the studies that the pigment is in the skin and brain as well as the eye. Understanding cryptochrome's connection to the body's internal clock could change how doctors treat certain illnesses. Sleep irregularities as temporary as jet lag and as serious as insomnia could eventually be addressed with a better understanding of the circadian rhythm. Sancar said a major benefit of the research could be new treatments for people who suffer from seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a major depression that comes on with the shorter days of fall and winter. 1, record 15, English, - chryptochrome
