Gaming VS Screen Acting




  • The Gaming Industry and Screen Acting Industry are closely related and share a common link. Nowadays, Most games and their characters are mostly based on movies and real life scenarios.Putting into consideration the game 'Call of Duty' manufactured by Activision; you recognise the closeness in pattern with so many wars dating as far back as 'Vietnam War'.
  •  The diversity and similarity between both fields could be seen as a Win or Lose situation i.e Actors are being used as game characters and Game characters used in movies. e.g the movie 'Avatar' and the game 'Terminator'.The Screen Acting and Gaming are at a rapid speed taking a very futuristic pattern, In the sense that; most 'Oscar winning Movies' like Avatar would have games created based on the original movie and more also, in modern games; they introduce sophisticated and updated weapons that are yet to come in the near future.
  • Presently, the simulation between the Gaming Industry and Screen Acting Industry owe all gratitude to technology because gaming is totally interactive- Online gaming and games like the Nintendo Wii.
  • On the other hand, the Screen Acting Industry; I predict would become more interactive whereby the viewers are given a choice to play their favourite character and dictate the end of a movie. At the longrun, all credit given to media convergence.
