What’s your favorite movie? Can you describe it? (Answers vary according to students.) Q2. How can the audience impact a movie? ØBefore a movie comes out, audiences can attend test screenings organized by film studios and give feedback about the movie. Q3. How do film studios collect audience feedback? Test screeningsMethodsContentsTime Traditional methodAsk audience to fill in a questionnaire. What audience liked and didn’t like. After a screening Disney’s high-tech solutionUse special cameras to follow audience’s feelings.Audience’s reactions in real-time. During a screening Q4. What do you think of Disney’s method? List all its advantages and disadvantages, considering both audiences and film companies. Advantages Disadvantages For audience: A novel experience; No need to recall feelings after a screening; …For film companies: Get more detailed and accurate feedback;Saves time; … For audience: May feel weird and distracted in front of the camera; Worries and concerns about privacy; … For film companies:May have to invest a lot in the equipment at the beginning; How accurate is the software in analyzing emotions? … Linking the three questions in class together, please present a well-organized and coherent article. The following is a possible version. Media giant Disney is testing special cameras placed inside cinemas to track the audience’s emotional reactions during a movie. It’s hoped that this new method will help collect more detailed feedback in test screenings, compared to traditional methods such as questionnaires. Test screenings are highly valued in the movie industry, and several well-known movies have been greatly changed following feedback. Take E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial as an example. Audience feedback led to the original version, in which E.T. died instead of going home in spaceship being completely altered. If it weren’t for this, the film may not have been so successful. From my point of view, I am in favor of Disney’s high-tech test screening method. For one thing, it is better for audience members in that it lets them enjoy the movie and leave, instead of having to rack their brains recalling their feelings and filling in questionnaires afterwards. For another, as the cameras can sense even the slightest facial movements, it enables film companies to collect much more detailed and accurate feedback, meaning they can fine tune their movies even better than before. As for privacy, companies should let test audiences know about the cameras in advance, letting them choose whether they still want to take part or not, and have procedures in the place to protect the data. Homework: 参考范文: As is indicated in the graph, the box-office income of Chinese films increased constantly from 2012 to 2015, but its growth, for one reason or another, slowed down in 2016. The increase in the box-office income can be attributed to a number of factors. The quality of life has improved and watching films is regarded as a good means of entertainment. Besides, filming technology has advanced and more quality films are on offer. Moreover, the internet plays an important part. On the internet, people can seek information about their favorite stars and buy tickets at a discount as well, which is both time-saving and economical. However, the film market may witness a slowdown in the near future. Cinemas have gradually given way to the rise of the internet and cellphones, and the ticket price is on the increase. Therefore, the film industry should make greater efforts to attract more viewers. |
