Abstract

This article investigates how the film production process has been influenced by the DVD format of delivery. It discusses how the digital output is affecting the creative process of feature film production and the affect upon the visualization process during preproduction. It will deploy two case studies - My Little Eye (2002, Dir: Marc Evans) and Final Destination 3 (2006, Dir: James Wong) – utilizing diagrammatical visualizations of their interactive content. Both these films produced additional content during the feature film production phase to offer viewers an alternate and interactive viewing experience on DVD. The article concludes by exploring how a current technological advancement, Blu Ray DVD Production, will act as a further catalyst to develop the interactive film genre beyond the initial phases investigated within the current case studies.
