Abstract

ABSTRACT In recent years, China has become one of the largest film industries and in order to remain competitive, Chinese blockbusters are attempting to imitate Hollywood post-production qualities. As Australian post-production companies are internationally renowned for their expertise, Chinese filmmakers are seeking opportunities to collaborate with Australians. The Australian government recognises China’s enthusiasm and has begun highlighting the nation’s strength through various programmes targeted towards the Chinese film industry. Though efforts have been placed to promote Australia's post-production industry, there is currently minimal research on Chinese cinema audiences' opinions regarding this transnational collaboration. To examine the effects of transnationality in Chinese cinema, this paper analyses Chinese audiences' opinions, along with exploring how the Australian government and post-production companies are engaging with China, to understand the potential of this partnership. The paper utilises data collected from the Chinese social networking site Douban to understand audiences’ reception on the post-production elements of the Chinese film Hero (2002). Overall, the analysis demonstrates that Chinese audiences are not identifying Australia’s role, however the impact of Australian practitioners are being emphasised through complements on the film’s visual effects, showing great potential between this transnational collaboration.

通过中国观众的观影体验考察中澳后期制作关系
近年来,中国已经成为最大的电影产业之一,为了保持竞争力,中国大片正试图模仿好莱坞的后期制作质量。由于澳大利亚的后期制作公司以其专业知识而享誉国际,中国电影人正在寻求与澳大利亚合作的机会。澳大利亚政府认识到中国的热情,并开始通过各种针对中国电影产业的项目来突出该国的实力。尽管澳大利亚一直在努力推动后期制作产业的发展,但目前关于中国电影观众对这种跨国合作的看法的研究很少。为了考察跨国对中国电影的影响,本文分析了中国观众的看法,并探讨了澳大利亚政府和后期制作公司如何与中国合作,以了解这种合作关系的潜力。本文利用中国社交网站豆瓣收集的数据来了解观众对中国电影《英雄》(2002)后期制作元素的接受程度。总体而言,分析表明,中国观众并没有认同澳大利亚的角色,但澳大利亚从业者的影响正在通过对电影视觉效果的补充而得到强调,显示出这种跨国合作的巨大潜力。
