The Rise of Australia

5th Australasian Dream

The biggest difference between the film structures in Australasia and Europe and the United States is that most of the film studios in Europe and the United States are large-scale studios, while Australasia is also filled with a large number of small film studios.

In fact, this is also easy to understand. The European and American film markets have not experienced much expansion, and coupled with the impact of Australasian films, local film studios are even more difficult to deal with.

Under such circumstances, it is difficult for small-scale film companies to survive. Even a mistake in one movie can make these small-scale film companies lose all their money and go bankrupt.

In order to promote the development of Australasian films, Arthur also formulated a more effective measure, which is the separation of production and broadcasting.

In fact, it is very simple. To sum it up in one sentence, the business of making movies and broadcasting movies belongs to two companies.

Even the three major film studios cannot guarantee that the films they produce can be independently broadcast nationwide.

For film studios, making movies with peace of mind is the best option. It can also save expenses to a greater extent and avoid the excessive impact of a single movie's loss on itself.

Under such circumstances, major movie theaters and even large-scale movie theater chains were born.

After the film studio completes the production of the film, it is handed over to the theaters for playback, and then dividends are distributed according to their respective proportions.

This can avoid burying some well-made movies as much as possible. After all, the public's support for a certain movie is the highest standard for measuring the quality of the movie.

Not to mention, Australasia's approach to film development does work, attracting a small number of film studios and small-scale filmmakers from Europe and the United States.

Compared with the European and American film markets, which tend to be monopolistic and rigid, the Australasian film market is more dynamic and more able to create box office myths.

With the participation of these people, it will be a big boost to the development of Australasian films.

After all, true prosperity is when a hundred flowers bloom, and the addition of foreign films can also prove Australasia's leadership in film.

Precisely because of the popularity of the Australasian store name, these film studios have extra income, such as advertisements from major attractions and major companies in the film.

How can a company quickly become an internationally renowned company? In addition to expanding your scale and making yourself one of the best companies in the world, there is another way, and that is to advertise in front of people all over the world.

The reason why Australia's major tourist attractions can quickly become internationally famous has to be admitted that the contribution of these movies is definitely not small.

Even in addition to advertising, many movies directly use scenic spots as shooting locations. Not only can the scenic spots be more intuitively displayed to foreign people, but it can also save the cost of renting shooting locations. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.

Under the subtle influence of these movies, Australasia's tourist attractions and corporate brands have been included in the movies and are well known to many foreign people.

An interesting thing happened during this period. A European tourist who had never been to Australasia, after arriving in Australasia, actually knew clearly which restaurant in Australasia was delicious and also knew about gold. Where is the best place to take photos on the coast? I have to lament the influence of movies.

This was the early 20th century before mobile phones and the Internet. Who could understand the situation in foreign countries clearly without leaving home? Who could do that under normal circumstances?

In order to ensure the authority and fairness of this Sydney Film Festival, the publicity department did not participate in the selection of this film festival. Instead, it organized a new association, the Australasian National Film Association, to be fully responsible for this and Launch events for future film festivals.

The composition of the Film Association is very complex. In addition to the supervision of the Propaganda Department, it also invites well-known Australasian film manufacturers as members, as well as some well-known newspapers and media, as well as some film critics with unique insights.

Yes, film critics have already appeared in Australasia. When there is a movie, there will be reviews. This is something that a movie cannot avoid at all.

This has also led some people to seize the opportunity and quickly become one of the most trusted film critics. They are invited by major newspapers and media to evaluate newly released films in Australasia and attract the public's attention.

Of course, these critics do not dare to comment too much on patriotic films that the government participates in.

Although Australasia also advocates freedom of speech, this does not mean that people will not be responsible for what they say.

What is the so-called freedom? You can say anything, but you must also be responsible for what you say.

If you can say anything and don't need to be responsible, that's not freedom, it's privilege, a super privilege that is above the entire country and society.

Take the United States as an example. The president of the United States does not dare to say anything, because the president's image determines the president's approval rating and the image of the entire U.S. government.

Representatives of major political parties do not dare to say anything. If they are right, it is fine. If they are wrong, it is the fault of the entire party.

In order to ensure the authority and fairness of each award, these film studios cannot rate their own films during the evaluation to ensure the accuracy of the ratings.

At the same time, all ratings will remove the highest score and the lowest score, and then calculate the average score of the movie as the score of the movie in a certain award.

The person with the highest score becomes the winner of the award. The entire selection is open and transparent, and the final score must be made public to ensure the fairness of the entire selection process.

Arthur didn't want the film festival he worked so hard to establish to turn into a sensational joke show in later generations, where whoever pays more money wins awards.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the first film festival in world history officially began.

Not too grand, but not too simple either. This is how the Sydney Film Festival, which has gone down in the annals of film history and influenced the development of the entire Australasian film industry, began.

Gary Sanderson, the first president of the National Film Association, slowly walked up to the stage, looked at the list he had already prepared in his hand, bowed slightly to everyone present, and then announced loudly: "Gentlemen, Ladies! It is an honor to be the presenter to present awards to the winning films of the Sydney Film Festival, held for the first time by the National Film Society of Australasia.

I know which movies you are all looking forward to winning awards, so let us reveal the answers together!

I announce that the film that won the Best Film Award at the first Sydney Film Festival is - "Australasian Dreams"! "

Hearing this, a director from the Royal Film Studio stood up as a matter of course, walked up to the stage with a smile, took the certificate from President Gary, bowed slightly to everyone, and then gave his acceptance speech.

The acceptance speeches are all the same, nothing more than thanking Arthur, thanking the royal family, etc., and thanking the film studio and the public for their support of the film.

Everyone present was slightly surprised when they heard the first and most important award, but they were quickly relieved.

Although there are many films comparable to Australasian Dream, as the first sound film in Australasia, Australasian Dream has brought huge changes to the Australasian film industry, and the award is also Of course.

The content on this certificate is also very simple, simply describing the awards won by Australasian Dream, as well as the production units and production personnel.

However, as the first important award of the first film festival, the presentation of the Best Film Award attracted a lot of media attention, and the spotlights kept flashing, and people were recording this moment.

"So next, the film that won the Best Screenplay Award at the first Sydney Film Awards is - 'Heroes'!" Gary Sanderson continued to announce with a smile.

A certain director from Sydney Film Studio stood up quickly, took the certificate from Gary with a smile, and also gave his own acceptance speech.

Heroes is a film made in Australasia during the post-war and influenza period. It is mainly about the heroes of war and influenza.

For such a highly patriotic film, its purpose is not to make profit, but to better impress Australasians and strive for their country.

Because there are three short stories, and each story is extremely brilliant and touching, it deservedly won the Best Screenplay Award.

This is not to say that the Film Association prefers patriotic films produced by the country, but that compared to the small-cost films invested by small and medium-sized film studios, the patriotic films invested by the three major film studios with national background are the real ones. High investment, big production.

Among other things, behind these patriotic films are the efforts of many writers, novelists and litterateurs. Such a luxurious lineup is something that other small and medium-sized film studios cannot even imagine.

With these people, it's not too much to win a best screenplay award. Even the previous Australasian Dream was a contender for the Best Screenplay Award. If it hadn't won the Best Film Award, I'm afraid it's hard to say who would win the Best Screenplay Award.

Each film can only win one award, which is also a special rule of this film festival.

Although I know that doing this may cause a good film to miss out on multiple awards, there is no way. There are hundreds of films selected at the first Sydney Film Festival. If you don't do this, more films will lose the chance to win awards.

Just like now, if it were not a hard and fast rule, I am afraid that the two films Australasian Dream and Heroes could at least win a few more awards.

It is worth mentioning that there are not many awards at this film festival. There are only six awards: Best Film Award, Best Screenplay Award, Best Director Award, Best Actor Award, Best Cinematography Award and Best Music Award. indivual.

Among them, the Director Award and Actor Award are for individuals, and the others are for movies. Before the final winners of these awards are announced, it is really difficult to determine who will win the honor.

However, such complicated and confusing competition is the most attractive part of this film award, and it also reflects the fairness and impartiality of film selection to a considerable extent.

For a film festival like that, where the results have already been scheduled, either the quality of the films is unilaterally suppressed, or the backstage of the film studio is unilaterally suppressed.

This situation is not a good thing for the selection of film festivals, nor is it a good thing for the development of movies.

Only by giving more opportunities to small and medium-sized film companies and ensuring a fair and just film selection environment can the film industry go further and develop better.
