Entertainment Industry Sailing towards the Future in a Sea of Changes

Media Entertainment Tech Outlook | Friday, July 19, 2019

Technologies and introduction of big players are the major drivers of change in the entertainment industry landscape.

Fremont CA: The changes in the entertainment industry are pretty apparent. Moving forward, one can expect to see the traditional concepts that ruled media gradually withdraw into non-relevance. Numerous reasons have triggered this rapid change. Advancing technology and digitalization have an undeniable role in it. Till a few years ago, the popularity of televisions was on the wane due to the explosion of mobile devices and enhanced internet connectivity. Now televisions shows seem to have made a strong come-back, all thanks to VoD and digital platforms.

The digital platforms aren't just dictating the content creation aspect but are also diversifying into production and licensing of content. The entertainment industry is becoming very dynamic, with stakeholders exploring a continually evolving market. For the consumers, it is an advantageous situation as they are getting to take advantage of competitive pricing and attractive content. The flexible access to these platforms with the help of mobile devices also suits the current lifestyle of consumers who are in a constant look-out for convenience and uninterrupted services.

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are a boon for the streaming services as these are increasingly depending on automated recommendations to help users find shows and movies they might prefer. The personalized recommendations make a good way to keep a viewer in the loop. Customer experience is turning out to be of prime importance as entertainment space gets overcrowded with companies from the video game industry, multiplex industry and other industries offering popular modes of recreation.

Virtual and augmented reality technologies are yet to make an impact, but the scope of deploying the technology to better entertainment are numerous. Interactive content, which allows the audience to decide the storyline, is also an upcoming trend. Niche content, personalization, and right strategies towards leveraging data are vital apart from the technology aspect in driving changes in the media industry.
