I think it that the improved
technology in the film industry has benefitted both audiences and institutions
for example the audiences have been benefitted as now they can enjoy a much
more wide variety of more realistic and gripping special effects, it causes the
movie to be more exciting than if the special effects were awful, it causes the
film for the audience to be more entertaining if the special effects are good
and from this the institutions are benefitted as they are praised for their
good special effects and gain more positive publicity and a better public name
for themselves.
Another way in which
audiences are benefitted is the CGI has dramatically improved, for example
movies such as Lord of the rings and Rise of the planet of the apes obviously
don't have real apes or creatures as hideous as Gollum, however with the
improved CGI effects they become very realistic causing the audience to enjoy
and appreciate the CGI much more than if the CGI was bad which just makes the
movie look a lot worse and just ridiculous sometimes. Again this causes the
institution praise for its ability to produce realistic CGI causing its movie
to be better.
Sound has also been an
improvement in films, in old films dialogue and music can sound rather odd in a
few ways difficult to describe but there is a definite difference between sound
in new films than sound in older films, dialogue, non diegetic and diegetic
sound just sounds much better with in films nowadays. If any movie has bad
sound effects it dramatically affects the movie in a very bad way, it can be
disappointing and highly frustrating trying to actually understand or listen to
the sound of the film. If a movie has quality sound it benefits it greatly by
causing the audience to enjoy it a whole lot more, no audience is happy with a
good film that has awful sound quality.
For films such as Star Wars
the older version arguably being the best trilogy ever had at the time amazing
special effects with the laser shooting, the lightsabers and floating objects.
This managed to amaze audiences and gain more popularity and gain Lucasfilm
loads of praise for its incredible effects. In this however the downside is now
since audiences have seen said effects in the films every single Star Wars film
now has been expected to blow the minds of audiences by giving them more insane
special effects, this can be the down side of films nowadays, due to advances
in the technology they are now generally expected to have much more spectacular
effects to excite the audiences, if a film was made now with the same quality
effects that were first used about 10 years ago it would be very harshly
criticised or thought to have had an extremely low budget.
With that audiences have been benefitted with constantly more incredible effects in movies however have also now generally expected each film that comes out as the years go by and technology improves we expect better effects or we become disappointed with the film.
