(4) Financial losses: The decline in revenue and delays in production led to financial losses for many studios, production companies, and filmmakers.
(5) Changes in film marketing: To reach audiences while they were spending more time at home, film marketing strategies shifted to focus more on digital and social media advertising.
The pandemic has had a significant impact on the worldwide film industry, but the industry has adapted to the changing circumstances and has continued to produce and distribute content through new channels.
