FUTURE OF CINEMA SALON Festival de Cannes May 21 2008
INT. JEAN LOUIS BORY PALAIS K
The Panel discussion is introduced by WAYNE CLARKSON,
executive director of Telefilm Canada, co producer of this
year’s opening film titled BLINDNESS
WAYNE CLARKSON
We appear like one of the most
wired agencies in the World ...
WAYNE fiddles with the microphone fashioned to his lapel and
the wires clipped to his belt
... the Federal Agency Of the
Canadian Government for Digital
Media!
ANA SERRANO
ANA suggestively gestures as a puppeteer...
Someone is pulling the strings
behind the curtain! Since we are
here, in a THEATRE, I do not have
control of my laptop!
BRUNO CHATELIN
There, the need for opening eyes
with 26 books on film starts here
with a social media, and the
Audience is catching up!
GAURAV DARTS his eyes from left to right
GAURAV DHILLON
It’s a technique called twitter!
ELLIOT KOTEK removes his spectacles, STROKES beard and
adjusts his collar
BRUNO CHATELIN
It’s no more film, it’s close to a
game!
GIT SCHEYNIUS
We must find ways to SEE the
Audience, create a new kind of
cinema.
ANA and WAYNE exchange seats, BRUNO exits STAGE LEFT to be
seated in the audience
GAURAV DHILLON
Let’s communicate with each other
and BE entertained, the Rise of the
UNMOVIE STAR!...
GAURAV gestures by pressing his palms together and looks
STAGE RIGHT to MARSHAL MARC HALPERIN!
...You have to get theatrical, or
nothing. The words we use will go
away, yes, death of the critics...
there has to be a community
conversation...
Like a shiny toy with GLEAM in the eyes
...There are 300 million on line in
China beating piracy in
advertising.
You have got to have feelings!
Bring on the BLOGGER VOICE
MARSHAL MARC HALPERIN
I got that REAR WINDOW VERTIGO!
You know we are not in the Art
House ghetto. To the audience
theatre offers them the opportunity
to get out of their homes and the
3D experience enhances this!...
Thoughts TURN to the U2 3D show at Cannes in 2007
...It’s about figuring a way out the
Money can get back to the
producers, and it really comes down
to awards, in a Deluxe package!
People want to attend the Festivals
from “The Living Room Set”.
Bring on ELLIOT KOTEK, voice of the Critic, the Community,
and now the Festivals
ELLIOT KOTEK
Making something for Art’s Sake you
do not even expect to make any
money!...
The audience GASPS
...Branding the beginning, having the
wreath on the film, Cannes
Branding.
The audience’s eyes ROLL
MARSHAL MARC HALPERIN
A 170 million dollar Crystal Skull...
PAUSE as ELLIOT turns his head toward MARC
...And a 3.4 million dollar canvas
sells for 15 million dollars.
ELLIOT’s gaze turns to CAMERA
ELLIOT KOTEK
The Studios are looking to the
Audience. We need to build in the
Audience a Studio mind-set, a
reason to leave home, a cheap
event.
GAURAV DHILLON
Yes and the difference is Air
Conditioning!
BRUNO CHATELIN
An Inflatable screen and Soccer!...
BRUNO faces the audience for question
AUDIENCE
Did you know on Bebo you can TALK
to the characters?
BRUNO CHATELIN
And on GOOGLE it’s 300 spoofs for
30 laughs!
