Chapter 566: Best Picture - Australasian Dream

The biggest difference between the film structure of 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 flooded with a large number of small film studios.

Actually, this is also very understandable. The film market in Europe and the United States has not experienced much expansion, and coupled with the impact of Australasian films, local film studios have had a hard time.

In such a situation, it is difficult for small-scale film companies to survive, and even a film mistake can make these small-scale film companies lose nothing and go bankrupt.

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

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

Even the three major film studios cannot guarantee that the films they make will be able to be broadcast to the whole country independently.

For film studios, making movies with peace of mind is the best choice, and it can also save money to a greater extent, and avoid the impact of a single film loss on themselves.

In this case, major movie theaters and even large-scale movie chains were born.

After the film is produced by the studio, it is handed over to the cinema for broadcasting, and then dividends are distributed according to their respective proportions.

This will do so as not to bury some well-made films, after all, the public's support for a certain film is the highest measure of the quality of the film.

Not to mention, Australasia's approach to film development has worked, and it has attracted a small number of film studios and small-scale filmmakers from Europe and the United States.

Compared with the monopoly and rigid European and American film market, the Australasian film market is more dynamic and more capable of creating box office myths.

With the addition of these people, it is also a big boost to the development of Australasian films.

After all, a hundred flowers bloom is the real prosperity, and with the addition of foreign films, it can also prove that Australasia is leading in films.

Because of the popularity of Australasian store names, these film studios have additional income, such as advertisements in movies for major attractions and major companies.

How can an enterprise quickly become an internationally renowned enterprise? One way to do this, in addition to scaling yourself up and becoming one of the best companies in the world, is to advertise in front of people around the world.

The reason why Australia's major tourist attractions have been able to quickly become internationally renowned has to admit that the contribution of these films is definitely not small.

Even in addition to advertising, many movies directly use scenic spots as shooting locations, which can not only show scenic spots to foreign people more intuitively, but also save the cost of renting filming locations, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Under the subtle influence of these films, Australasia's tourist attractions and corporate brands have entered the film and are well known by many foreign people.

During this period, an interesting incident happened, a European tourist who had never been to Australasia, after arriving in Australasia, actually clearly understood which restaurant in Australasia was delicious, and also knew where the Gold Coast was most suitable for group photos, and had to sigh the influence of the movie.

This is the beginning of the 20th century without mobile phones and the Internet, and who can understand the situation abroad without going out?

In order to ensure the authority and impartiality of the Sydney Film Festival, the publicity department did not participate in the selection of the festival, but organized a new association, the Australasian National Film Association, which was fully responsible for the opening of this and future film festivals.

The composition of the Film Association is very complex, in addition to the supervision of the Ministry of Publicity, it invites members of well-known Australasian film companies, as well as a number of well-known newspapers and media, as well as some film critics with unique insights.

Yes, film critics have already appeared in Australasia. If there is a movie, there will be evaluation, which is something that a movie can't avoid at all.

This led some to seize the opportunity to quickly become one of the most trusted film critics, invited by major newspapers and media to specialize in evaluating new Australasian films and attracting the public's attention.

Of course, these critics did not dare to comment on the patriotic films that the government was involved in.

While Australasia also believes in freedom of expression, that doesn't mean people aren't held accountable for what they say.

What is freedom? It's that you can say anything, but you also have to be responsible for what you say.

If anything can be said and there is no need to be responsible, it is not a so-called freedom, it is a privilege, a super privilege that is above the whole country and society.

Take the United States as an example, the president of the United States does not dare to say anything, because the image of the president determines the approval rating of the president and also determines the image of the entire US government.

The representatives of the major political parties did not dare to say anything, and it was fine to say that they were right, but it was the fault of the entire party if they said it wrong.

In order to ensure the authority and fairness of the awards, these film studios cannot rate their own films when making evaluations to ensure the accuracy of the ratings.

At the same time, the highest score and the lowest score are removed from all the ratings, and then the average score of the film is calculated as the score of the film in a certain award.

The one with the highest score becomes the winner of the award, and the entire evaluation is open and transparent, and the final score is also publicized to ensure the fairness of the entire evaluation process.

Arthur didn't want the film festival he had worked so hard to set up become the kind of grandstanding joke show in later generations, and whoever gave more money would win an award.

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

Not too grand, but not too austere. The Sydney Film Festival, which is enough to go down in the history of cinema and influence the development of the entire Australasian film, 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, first bowed slightly to everyone present, and then announced loudly: "Gentlemen, ladies! It is a great honour to be the presenter for the first time at the Australasian National Film Society, the Sydney Film Festival Awards.

Knowing which movies you're all looking forward to winning awards, let's find out!

I announce that the film that won the Best Film Award at the first Sydney Film Festival is "The Australasian Dream"! ”

Hearing this, a certain director of the Royal Film Studio stood up as a matter of course, walked up to the stage with a smile and accepted the certificate handed over by President Gary, bowed slightly to everyone, and then delivered his acceptance speech.

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

Hearing the first and most important award, everyone present was slightly surprised, but also quickly relieved.

Although there are many films that can be compared to the Australasian Dream, as the first Australasian sound film, the Australasian Dream has brought great changes to the Australasian film industry, and it is natural to win the award.

The certificate is also very simple, simply describing the awards won by Australasian Dreams, as well as the production unit and production crew.

However, as the first major award of the first film festival, the award for best film attracted a lot of media attention, and the spotlight flashed non-stop, and people were recording the moment.

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

A director at the Sydney Film Studio quickly stood up, smiled and accepted the certificate from Gary's hand, and also released his acceptance speech.

Heroes are Australasian films made during the post-war and flu periods, mainly about the heroes of war and flu.

is such a very patriotic film, but its purpose is not to make a profit, but to better move Australasian people to fight and work hard for the country.

Because there are three short stories, and each story is extremely brilliant and moving, it deserves to win the Best Screenplay Award.

This is not to say that the film association prefers patriotic films shot by the state, but compared with the small-budget films invested by small and medium-sized film studios, the patriotic films invested by the three major film studios with a national background are really high-investment and large-scale productions.

Not to mention anything else, there are many writers, families and writers behind these patriotic films, and such a luxurious lineup is something that other small and medium-sized film studios simply dare not 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, and if it hadn't won the Best Film Award, I'm afraid it would be hard to say who would have won the Best Screenplay Award.

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

Although I know that this may cause a good film to miss out on multiple awards, there is no way, the first Sydney Film Festival has selected hundreds of films, and not doing so will deprive more films of the chance to win awards.

Just like now, if it weren't for the hard and fast rules, I'm afraid that the two films Australasian Dream and Heroes would at least win a few more awards.

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

Among them, the director award and the actor award are for individuals, and the others are for films. Until the final winners of these awards are announced, it is really difficult to determine who will win the honor.

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

A film festival like the one that has already been booked has either a one-sided crushing of the quality of the film, or a one-sided crushing of the backstage of the studio.

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

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