Changes in technology have affected the relationship between audiences and producers in the film industry in the following ways: 1) New digital distribution methods like streaming platforms have replaced the old model of driving films to cinemas and DVDs to shops. 2) Audiences now have more variety in where and when they view films - from their bedrooms at night to the cinema to streaming on multiple devices. 3) Young audiences especially consume films in illegal and legal ways, through various locations and times, often with friends but sometimes alone late at night.
