In a literary work, film, or other narrative, the plot is the sequence of events in which each event affects the next one through the principle of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-act_structure

    Three-act structure. The three-act structure is a model used in narrative fiction that divides a story into three parts (acts), often called the Setup, the Confrontation, and the Resolution. It was popularized by Syd Field in his 1979 book Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting. Based on his recommendation that a play have a "beginning ...

  4. Optical resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_resolution

    For resolution measurement, film manufacturers typically publish a plot of Response (%) vs. Spatial Frequency (cycles per millimeter). The plot is derived experimentally. Solid state sensor and camera manufacturers normally publish specifications from which the user may derive a theoretical MTF according to the procedure outlined below.

  5. Story structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Story_structure

    Definition. Story is a sequence of events, which can be true or fictitious, that appear in prose, verse or script, designed to amuse or inform an audience. [1] Story structure is a way to organize the story's elements into a recognizable sequence. It has been shown to influence how the brain organizes information. [2]

  6. Optical transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transfer_function

    A definition of resolution that is more in line with the perceived quality would instead use the spatial frequency at which the first zero occurs, 10 μm, or 100 LP/mm. Definitions of resolution, even for perfect imaging systems, vary widely. A more complete, unambiguous picture is provided by the optical transfer function.

  7. Conflict (narrative) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict_(narrative)

    Traditionally, conflict is a major element of narrative or dramatic structure that creates challenges in a story by adding uncertainty as to whether the goal will be achieved. In works of narrative, conflict is the challenge main characters need to solve to achieve their goals. However, narrative is not limited to a single conflict.

  8. Angular resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_resolution

    Angular resolution. A series of images representing the magnification of M87* with an angular size of some microarcseconds, comparable to viewing a tennis ball on the Moon (magnification from top left corner counter−clockwise to the top right corner). Angular resolution describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or ...

  9. Narrative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narrative

    The plot is the sequence of events that occurs in a narrative from the beginning to the middle to the end. It typically occurs through a process of cause and effect , in which characters' actions or other events produce reactions that allow the story to progress.
