According to Tim Dirk's AMC Filmsite definition of filmic devices in his Cinematic Terms dictionary, "...a filmic device in which a scene, character, object, and/or action may be associated, identified, or interpreted as an implied representation of something else (that is unrelated).

Essentially, then filmic devices are metaphors used to represent -- visually -- some theme. You can see Dirk's examples at the end of North By Northwest, as the train steams into a dark tunnel, signifying the sex act, or rain pouring out of the skies at the end of Casablanca, signifying tears and sadness.

In sum, writing filmic devices into a script may impinge on a director's vision somewhat, but offering them in a unified style, then, can also inspire the entire project.

Why your Logitech Unifying Receiver wireless keyboard and mouse not working with KVM switch?

For those new Logitech Unifying devices which require to be configured and controlled by Logitech's proprietary protocol, most of the "emulatation class" KVM switches can not pass the protocol correctly which is the true reason why they can not work together with Logitech Unifying Receiver wirelss keyboard and mouse. One new class of KVM technology - DDM class KVM switch is the only KVM technology currently works with most of the Logitech Unifying devices. Please google "Class of KVM switch" to see the advantages of DDM technology. Unless, Logitech release the its communication protocol of the unifying receiver or Logitech make their own KVM switches for notebook computers, I don't think there are solutions in near future.
