Core Viewpoint - The popularity of derivative content from films on short video platforms has raised concerns about the quality and depth of storytelling, despite contributing significantly to platform traffic [1][2]. Group 1: Types of Derivative Content - Derivative short videos are primarily categorized into two types: summary videos that condense the main plot and character arcs, and analysis videos that explore themes, styles, and historical context [1]. - Summary videos cater to the fast-paced lifestyle of viewers, allowing them to grasp the essence of a film in a few minutes, which aligns with the trend of fragmented viewing habits [1]. Group 2: Quality Concerns - Summary videos often rely on fixed story templates and oversimplified character labels, which can lead to a distorted understanding of the original content [2]. - The artistic and aesthetic value of films, which is achieved through various audiovisual techniques, cannot be replicated by summary videos, as they lack the depth of narrative and performance [2]. Group 3: Viewer Preferences - As audiences seek quality films, the interest in analysis and documentary-style videos about films, including behind-the-scenes content and creator interviews, is increasing, while summary videos are becoming less popular [3]. - This trend indicates that the unique cinematic experience offered by theaters remains valuable and irreplaceable in the age of short video content [3].
