What's the difference between online movies and traditional movies?

I think the main differences between online movies and traditional movies are as follows:

First, the broadcast platform is different.

The broadcast platforms of online movies are mainly major video websites, while the broadcast platforms of traditional movies are mainly offline cinemas. Of course, some traditional movies will be broadcast on various video websites after a long time.

Second, the profit model is different.

Online movies mainly make profits and recover capital through advertisements and paid viewing, while traditional movies mainly make profits by ticket prices. The more people go to the cinema, the higher the box office, the higher the ticket price, and the higher the profitability and gold absorption capacity of traditional movies. Of course, traditional movies also have the phenomenon of advertising implantation, and they will also get some profits through advertising.

Third, the cost input is different.

Generally speaking, the shooting cost of traditional films is relatively high, mainly due to the high cost of personnel, clothing, props and other expenses, especially some big names. Internet movies are generally "little actors", or only one or two well-known actors are invited to perform. However, due to the increasing attention of online movies, the problem of actors in online movies has also been improved. I think with the advent of the era of online movies, its cost will gradually increase and its quality will get better and better.

Although online movies are becoming more and more popular and watched by more and more people, the quality is uneven and the profitability and promotion ability are limited. Traditional films are often promoted through press conferences. At this point, I think online movies are still lacking and need to be improved. But the data of online movies is fair and transparent, which is incomparable to traditional movies. There are too many things about fake box office in traditional movies. For investors, information transparency is a big advantage.

Internet movies have developed rapidly. If only the traditional movies were the same, wouldn't it be better for the two forms of movies to go hand in hand? Expect a qualitative change in China's film industry.
