Everyone was surprised when Disney said its film team members were remaking The fungle Book. Based on Rudyard Kipling's book of the same title, it describes the story of a boy named Mowgli. Mowgli and his animal friends live happily in the jungle until one day Shere Khan the tiger returns and tries to drive him out of the jungle. In 1967, Disney adapted the book into a cartoon film, which is widely regarded as a classic. However, its old age shows. The new film uses much more advanced technology—not only the animals but also the jungle is digitally created. Building the

Many different elements go into making a film. The lecture below was given by a film critic at the school Film Festival. Before you read the lecture transcript, think about the following questions:

Hello, everyone! Let me start by asking you a question: what's the first thing (that) you notice about a film The acting The music Maybe the amazing sets Whatever your answer is, there's always a lot more to it than first meets the eye. Actually, the film you see on the screen is the product of a huge amount of hard work, most of which takes place behind the scenes. Today, Fll give you a brief introduction to some aspects of film-making you might not be familiar with.

To begin with, I'd like to draw your attention to an important factor of a film—sound effects. These are often added after a scene has been shot and might not be made in the way you would expect. For example, in Jurassic Park, the sounds of different animals, including a baby elephant and a tiger, were mixed by a computer to make a dinosaur roar. The sound of the doors opening in the Star Trek films was made simply by pulling a sheet of paper out of an envelope.
Another aspect I attach great importance to is visual special effects. CGI has been frequently used in film-making as

a special effects technology. Generally, scenes requiring CGI are filmed in front of a green screen in the studio. As green doesn't match any natural hair or skin colour, actors can be easily separated from the background. This enables CGI effects to be added later. The Quidditch scenes in the Harry Potter films were made in this way with the actors jumping up and down in front of a green screen. However, the aid of computers isn't always preferred. Peter Jackson, director of The Lord of the Rings films, took a creative approach—he used clever camera angles to make characters seem bigger or smaller than they really were.

Props also contribute to a film's success. To make a film look real, great effort must sometimes be made to research, find and build objects. Director James Cameron spent six months looking at and revising plans of the Titanic in order to build a full-sized model for his 1997 film. He talked to historians to ensure that the details were correct and even went down to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean to see what was left of the ship for himself. It took 500 workers 100 days to build the fine model, not to mention the thousands of props inside.

Hopefully, next time you go to the cinema, you'll spare a thought for all those talented people behind the scenes. They have worked for months and even years so that you can have two hours of enjoyment!

Read the film review of The King's Speech below and try to understand its structure.
The King's Speech
The King's Speech is a 2010 British film directed by Tom Hooper. The film stars Colin Firth as King George VI, Geoffrey Rush as Lionel Logue and Helena Bonham Carter as Queen Elizabeth. At the 83rd Academy Awards (the Oscars), the film won Best Picture and Colin Firth won Best Actor in a Leading Role.
Based on a true story, the film is set in London in the 1930s. Prince Albert, second son of King George V, suffers from a terrible speech problem. The Prince has given

up hope of a cure but his wife, Elizabeth, takes him to see Lionel Logue, an Australian speech doctor living in London. Although the two men have very different backgrounds and do not get along at first, they eventually become friends. After the Prince's elder brother gives up being King, Prince Albert becomes King George VI.
The film looks like a fairly typical historical film without fancy special effects, and it is made enjoyable by the performances of the main actors. Firth is successful in showing us the King's struggles as well as his courage. He has great chemistry with Rush and Bonham Carter, whose characters are both very believable. In the meantime, Hooper skilfully creates uncertainty and tension with narrow indoor sets
