Eugen Schüfftan
Eugen Schüfftan (21 July 1893, Breslau, Silesia, Germany, now Wroclaw, Poland – 6 September 1977, New York City) was a German cinematographer.
He invented the Schüfftan process, a special effects technique that employed mirrors to insert actors into miniature sets. One of the first uses of the process was for Metropolis (1927), directed by Fritz Lang. The technique was widely used throughout the first half of the 20th century until it was supplanted by the travelling matte and bluescreen techniques.
Schüfftan won the 1962 Academy Award for Best Cinematography, Black-and-White for his work on the film The Hustler.
Selected filmography
gollark: The trouble is that it's hard to have that sort of thing not be easily detectable.
gollark: Anyway, I wrote some examples I think should be useful for the `string.dump` page, so you can look there.
gollark: In some cases, for simple code, you can do some REALLY obfuscated obfuscation, but that's time consuming and hard.
gollark: Or, dump it to bytecode and put the bytecode string in your program (use `textutils.serialise` to make a valid string literal).
gollark: Well, there are lots of ways. First, you can minify it using... a minifier.
