Seminar on US Film Industry Model at DANAFF IV: Lessons for Vietnam

Within the framework of the Fourth Da Nang Asian Film Festival (DANAFF IV), on the morning of July 3, an important seminar titled "US Film Industry – Successful Model and Lessons for Vietnam" was held at Furama Resort Da Nang. The event attracted a large number of experts, researchers, managers, and filmmakers from both domestic and international backgrounds, with the aim of sharing experiences in developing the film industry in the context of deep integration.

The seminar focused on analyzing the factors that made the US film industry successful, from the production and distribution system to the way film brands are built. The speakers offered practical lessons that Vietnam can apply, especially in leveraging local tourism and cultural potential through cinema. Da Nang, with its advantages in landscape and infrastructure, is seen as an ideal destination to develop a "studio" model similar to what Hollywood has done.

This is one of the highlighted professional activities of DANAFF IV, not only contributing to enhancing understanding of the global film industry but also opening new directions for Vietnamese cinema. The discussions at the seminar promise to provide a foundation for domestic policymakers and businesses to build sustainable development strategies, making cinema a key economic sector in the future.
