In this thesis I focus on the artistry and essential work, behind the scenes that storyboard artists have contributed to, since the early days of film history. The works I will focus on are the important phases of pre-planning of feature films and animated films. I theorize on the aspect of what makes a good story and how it is brought to life on the screen, as well as how the story is actually conveyed with this drawings. The hypothesis maintains the importance of storyboards, as well as defining their main purpose. Using a formalistic point of view and historical argumentation, I examine and compare five different directors´ use of storyboards and how their respective collaborative teams (i.e director of photography, production designer and story artists, editors etc) create each film´s particular nuances and cinematic expressions. The source materials used are works by Bill Krohn, Giuseppe Cristiano, Steven D. Katz and Robert Kapsis, amongst others. The films/DVDs for my research have consisted of numerous behind-the-scenes materials and storyboards that have been featured with these filmic references. My conclusion is that the subsequent cinematic expression in each work is already apparent in the early process. This is revealed sometimes in the sketchbook of the director, but most often in the important collaborative work of the whole production team. In this we discover aspects as to what makes an elaborate, filmic masterpiece, facts most often unknown to a normal cinema audience.

The thesis project the Descendants of Ancestors explores the eccentric and strangely figurative qualities of Claude Nicolas Ledoux’s (1736-1806) architectural oeuvre.  The project focuses on Ledoux’s engravings and through careful reading (and deliberate mis-reading), transforms them into architectural characters. I regard these characters as Descendants of Ledoux, belonging to the same bloodline but unmistakably shaped by their conception in contemporary times. / Examensprojektet “the Descendants of Ancestors” undersöker de excentriska och figurala kvaliteterna i arkitekten Claude Nicolas Ledoux (1736-1806) verk. Projektet fokuserar på Ledoux gravyrer och översätter dem genom en noggrann läsning till arkitektoniska karaktärer. Jag ser dessa karaktärer som ättlingar till Ledoux, tillhörande samma släktträd men otvetydigt formade av deras tillkomst i samtiden

A tendência mundial de se buscar a sustentabilidade econômica tem causado uma crescente demanda por novas técnicas e novos materiais que gerem: aumento da produtividade, maior velocidade de operação, aumento da vida útil de ferramentas e matrizes, e que reduzam o custo ambiental atual. Nesta busca a modificação de superfícies metálicas é um campo promissor e o bombardeamento com íons de Xe+ tem sido utilizada para texturizar a superfície do substrato, seja para o aumento da aderência de revestimentos com grande dureza ou para melhorar a difusão de N. Neste estudo são relatados os resultados obtidos de ensaios de dureza, desgaste, DRX (fases e tensão residual) e microscopias MEV, AFM e MET, efetuadas em amostras de aço 100Cr6 (globulizada) modificadas superficialmente por meio de bombardeamento com íons de Xe+ e revestimento duplex. Para esse fim, foram preparadas amostras combinando: bombardeamento com íons de Xe+ com energia de 400 e 1000 eV; implantação de N por feixe de íons e plasma pulsado; e deposição do revestimento de TiN por sputtering com diferentes temperaturas em um sistema reativo com N2-IBSD. Uma análise desses resultados permitiu constatar que o bombardeamento de íons de Xe+ gera refinamento de grãos, texturização, e aumenta a densidade de defeitos na estrutura cristalina na superfície tratada em função da energia utilizada. O bombardeamento de Xe+ com energia de 1000 eV melhorou o aprisionamento de nitrogênio e a difusão a 380°C (via feixe de íons) o que levou a formação dos nitretos γ\'-Fe4N e ε-Fe2-3N. Enquanto que com energia de 400 eV levou a formação apenas do nitreto γ\'-Fe4N. As propriedades adquiridas na combinação dos pré-tratamentos de bombardeamento de Xe+ com energia de 400 eV, nitretação a plasma pulsado (520°C) e a deposição do filme de TiN (500°C/240 min) levaram ao melhor desempenho no ensaio de desgaste. / The global trend of seeking economic sustainability has caused a growing demand for new materials that generate: increased productivity, higher operating speed, increased service life of tools and dies, and to reduce the current environmental cost. In this search, the modification of metallic surfaces is a promising field and bombardment Xe+ ions has been used to texture the surface of the substrate, is to increase the tack coatings with high hardness or to improve the N diffusion. In this study are reported the results obtained from testing the hardness, wear, XRD (phase and residual stress) and microscopy SEM, AFM and TEM, made in 100Cr6 steel samples (globulized) surface modified by bombardment with Xe+ and duplex coating. To this end, samples were prepared by combining: bombardment Xe+ ions with energy of 400 and 1000 eV; N implantation by ion beam and pulsed plasma; and deposition of the TiN coating by sputtering at different temperatures in a N2 reaction system-IBSD. An analysis of these results helped to confirm that the bombardment of Xe+ ions produces grain refinement, texturing, and increases the defect density in the crystalline structure of the surface treated according to the energy used. Bombardment of Xe+ ions with energy 1000 eV improved nitrogen trapping and diffusion to 380°C (via ion beam) which led to the formation of γ\'-Fe4N and ε-Fe2-3N nitrides. Whereas with energy 400 eV led to the formation of only γ\'-nitride Fe4N. The properties acquired in the combination of the pre-treatments of Xe+ ions bombardment at 400 eV, pulsed plasma nitriding (520°C) and the deposition of TiN coating (500°C/240 min) leads to a superior performance in wear test.

Sein besonderes Verdienst besteht als Historiker, Chronist mit der ersten Autorenschaft der „Radeberger Chronik Thieme - Knobloch“, die er ins Leben rief und mit der er alle in Radeberg und seiner Umgebung auftretende Besonderheiten und Vorkommnisse festschrieb, eine Primärchronik von unschätzbarem Wert. Thiemes Credo als Bürgermeister: „Ums Wohl der Stadt muss man sich treu bemühen. Sein Wunsch war: Möge Radeberg stets blühen“
