l Putting Movies on Mobiles

Movies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies such as the Oscars.But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm — the first mobile film festival.

The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries.Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length — ideal for viewing and sharing on mobile phones.An independent jury then selected a shortlist of five film-makers.The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.

l        New Platforms

The awards highlight the increasing impact that mobile phones are making in the entertainment industry.Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films.They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work.Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works.  

It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a way to have that expression seen by a wide audience.Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!

l        New Technology Advances

MoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood.The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size.However this could be overcome as technology advances.

In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone.And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.

Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thing that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.

阅读理解

  Where in the world can you take an hour’s train ride, and pass a forest, a London street, a scene from the Wild West(西大荒), and a burning building that never burns down? There’s only one place, and that’s Hollywood, in California.The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets(布景)in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie companies(公司)in the U.S.A.

  A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars.But they are only memories.Hollywood isn’t quite the same as it used to be.Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down.Movie-makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas.Instead, they repeat old ones.

  The film industry is changing fast.Teenagers still go out to the movies.The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home.But older people mostly stay home to watch series, like Dynasty, which have become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies.These“soap opera,”as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes.But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.

  Though it is soap operas the are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in Business, big films are still being made in America.But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood.New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well.Movie-makers have realized that they don’t need Hollywood any more.They can use modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio.Other states, especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California.They are offering better working conditions and lower cost.
