Technical quality of Indonesian films

Technical quality of Indonesian films

From Kompas

As an Indonesian film buff, I'm concerned with the fact that Indonesian films are still poor and simple in terms of technology.

Indonesian film makers must try to make quality films that can demonstrate technological sophistication in film making like we can witness in such films as Independence Day, X-Men, Godzilla, Batman, Jurassic Park or the films from Walt Disney and Columbia Star Films.

If such films can be made in Indonesia, they can be exported to compete with films from the United States and other countries.

A film can become a worldwide box office success because it is of good quality and demonstrate the excellence of sophisticated technology. It is no use spending billions of rupiah on making films which show only simple technology.

Indonesian films can make progress only if the film makers take advantage of the progress in technology. How can our Tutur Tinular and Brama Kumbara compete with Jurassic Park, Batman Returns, Terminator or X-men?
