Making movies used to be something that only professional teams with lots of money could do. But now， thanks to AI， anyone can create a film and it might even get shown at big events like the Beijing International Film Festival（BJIFF， 北京國(guó)際電影節(jié)）.

This year， for the first time， the 14th BJIFF had a special part， the AIGC Short Film Unit. They got 430 films from all over the world. Surprisingly， independent creators made up 45 percent of the total， with the youngest one being just 11 years old， while professionals only accounting for 10.7 percent.

“AIGC is changing the game by letting anyone make movies，” said Wang Lei， from the Communication University of China， at the forum（論壇） of the unit.

But making movies with AI isn’t perfect yet. Many AI Apps can only produce random video clips based on user prompts（提示詞）. As a result， characters’ faces often appear differently in later scenes. Wang solved this by making his characters’ faces blurry（模糊不清的） on purpose， turning a bug（故障） into a feature. He only started playing with AI two months before making his award-winning film.

AIGC is available for anyone. “There are no barriers（壁壘）， regardless of wealth or technologies， on AIGC filmmaking，” said Song Donghuan， a scriptwriter（編劇） who set up StoryStorm， a major AIGC community in China. “The only thing you need is to have a strong desire to express yourself， and the only limit is your imagination.”

1. What is the purpose of AIGC？

2. Who can take part in AIGC Short Film Unit？

為了豐富同學(xué)們的校園生活，你校“電影社”正在為一年一度的藝術(shù)節(jié)活動(dòng)招募志愿者演員。入選者需要扮演影片中的經(jīng)典人物，對(duì)觀眾展示其經(jīng)典臺(tái)詞和招牌動(dòng)作。假如你是王洋，對(duì)此非常有興趣，請(qǐng)你給負(fù)責(zé)人Susan寫(xiě)一封不少于90詞的自薦郵件。內(nèi)容包括以下幾個(gè)方面：你想表演的意愿和優(yōu)勢(shì)，你觀看的電影類(lèi)型和時(shí)間，介紹你最喜愛(ài)的電影角色。

Dear Susan，

I’m writing to tell you what I want to do for the art festival. I think I am suitable for the job.

信件開(kāi)頭沒(méi)有清晰表明寫(xiě)作目的，適合該任務(wù)的優(yōu)秀品質(zhì)也沒(méi)有具體體現(xiàn)。

First， I am a film lover. I watch many excellent films at weekends or during the holiday. I watch all types of films， such as comedies， romantic films， action films and so on. I also share reviews after watching these films. It will also be a good chance for me to make friends.

中間兩段并不是第一、第二的并列關(guān)系，去掉“First， Second”后邏輯更順。同時(shí)第二段的最后一句提及交友，偏離自薦信的寫(xiě)作目的。再者，文章句式結(jié)構(gòu)單一，可以考慮使用復(fù)合句以增強(qiáng)文章的可讀性。

Second， I like Ne Zha best. Because he is a different character from the traditional one. He has been taken care of and educated with love by his parents.

I’m looking forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely，

Wang Yang

文章最后一段可以再次點(diǎn)明寫(xiě)作目的，并禮貌地表達(dá)迫切的心情。

Dear Susan，

I’d like to be a volunteer actor for the art festival. I think I am suitable for the job because I am a film lover and a born actor. I am also hard-working and outgoing.

I watch many excellent films with my parents and best friends at weekends or during the holiday. We watch all types of films， such as comedies， romantic films， action films and so on. We share reviews after watching these films as well. It will also be a good chance for us to introduce our favourite film stars to others.

Among the characters， I like Ne Zha best. In the film， he is a different character who has been taken care of and educated with love by his parents. He discovers the true meaning of his life and bravely faces the challenges.

I’m looking forward to your reply. I am sure I would appreciate it a lot if you could give me the opportunity.

Yours，

Wang Yang
