The film industry has been evolving for decades. When I
think of the future in regards to movie theaters and the evolution of the film
process I can only wonder. There have been many wonderful movies and many great
ideas. We have to ask ourselves what we think the future is. I’m sure we all
wonder at times about the future of the film industry. If you ask me I believe
the industry has come an extremely long way since the beginning of silent
films.
Many screenwriters and producers feel that the future of films
will still be around but perhaps in a different form. The idea of bigger
screens and less theaters with higher prices gets closer every day. The media
industries as a whole if you ask me are all full of surprises.
When you go to the movie theater it just about cost on
average $20.00 per person. Depending on the location and the type of film (IMAX or 3D) the cost can vary. This
does not include drink or food prices. The last time I took my family to a film
it cost close to $100.00.
Take a moment and look at the interesting article of what
the pros think about the future of the film industry in regards to filmmakers
and moviegoers (ClickHere).
Now that you have read the article I encourage you to let me
know what you think. Do you think that these pros are correct about the future?
What do you think the future of the industry will be like? I would hate to
think that our movie experience would be like a ‘Broadway’ play. There are many ideas. What do you think about the
future of 3D films?
Check out this article I found on 3D films (ClickHere). The film industry are coming out with more advanced graphics and
the rise of the digital age is amongst us. Filmmakers play a whole new role in
creation. Do you think this role is harder or easier?
