Prezi questions
Lesson
1 questions (from prezi on cinema going)
1. How important is advertising in the film industry?
You now know how much distributors spend, is this justified? Can
you think of any issues/debates this issue causes?
2. How is technology changing the way we learn about
films and change the role of advertising? What has changed and what has
stayed the same (over last 10-15 years?)
3. What do you think about the role of actors in the
film industry? what is their impact on the business?
4. Why do you think Bollywood only accounts for 1.1%
of the UK box office? Why do 'foriegn' films not have more success?
5. Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of 3D
films. Why is it so successful? Is it an inevitable growing part of the film
industry? Why or why not?
6. How has home entertainment changed in the last 5-10
years? How has technology influenced this?
7. Rate the most effective to least effective way
(platform) to watch films and explain why. Consider different target
audiences in your answer.
8. Discuss the issues around the film industry being
dominated by conglomerates.
9. How does ownership, audience consumption and
technology influence mainstream and independent films? What is the impact
on both?
