During the team's formation, Ah Yu, Zhong Hua, and Su Yao, as core members, consistently maintained an open and inclusive mindset, actively guiding members to understand and learn from each other. They deeply understood that only by allowing each member to fully utilize their strengths and respecting and integrating their differences could this seemingly loose team be united into a powerful force, working together towards the goal of creating internationally influential film and television works.
IV. Team Formation, Integration, and Growth Prospects
(a) Challenges of the initial integration
Although the team has been formed, the primary challenge now is ensuring smooth integration among its members. Members from different countries have different work styles and thinking habits, often leading to arguments during project discussions due to differing opinions. For example, when discussing initial creative ideas, Western members tend to directly state their thoughts and engage in heated debates, while Eastern members are more reserved, focusing on listening attentively and then expressing their views tactfully. This difference in communication styles stemming from cultural backgrounds can sometimes significantly reduce the efficiency of discussions and even cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Furthermore, coordination issues may arise in the allocation and execution of specific tasks due to insufficient understanding of each other's professional fields. The advertising and marketing team may not understand the art design team's insistence on the visual presentation of a particular scene, believing that they are overly pursuing artistic effects while neglecting marketing selling points; while the art design team may feel that some promotional elements proposed by the advertising and marketing team undermine the overall artistic aesthetic. These problems during the adjustment process require the core team members to patiently coordinate and resolve them, guiding everyone to gradually find a working model of mutual understanding and cooperation.
(II) Opportunities and Values of Cultural Integration
Despite the challenges of the integration process, the cultural fusion among team members also presented tremendous opportunities and value. By organizing cultural exchange and sharing sessions, each member introduced their country's film and television culture, customs, and so on, gradually gaining an understanding of the characteristics and advantages of film and television creation from different cultural backgrounds. For example, after learning about the unique song and dance elements in Indian films and the profound cultural connotations behind them, the art design team began to consider how to cleverly integrate these vibrant and infectious elements into certain scene designs of the project, adding a unique charm to the work.
Furthermore, once the business investment team becomes familiar with the cultural consumption habits of different countries, they can more accurately assess the potential returns of projects in various markets, providing a basis for the advertising and marketing team to develop more targeted marketing strategies. This process of cultural integration not only enriches the content and expression of film and television works but also enables teams to continuously innovate through cross-cultural communication and collaboration, creating film and television works with unique international competitiveness that stand out in the global film and television market.
(III) Expectations for Future Growth and Development
As the team continues to gel and integrate culturally, they are filled with anticipation for the future growth and development of this cross-disciplinary film and television project team. They hope that the success of this project will set a benchmark for cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary cooperation in the film and television industry, attracting more outstanding talents to participate in similar transnational film and television projects.
Upon completion of the project, team members will have established strong camaraderie and professional connections, enabling them to continue collaborating on more innovative and impactful film and television projects in the future. They also hope that this team can become a cradle for cultivating cross-cultural film and television talent, allowing more practitioners to learn about film and television industry knowledge and collaborative experiences from different countries on this platform, thereby enhancing the internationalization of the entire film and television industry and bringing more spectacular and multicultural film and television works to global audiences.
In conclusion, while assembling a cross-disciplinary film and television project team was fraught with difficulties, it was precisely in overcoming these challenges that the core members demonstrated their resilience and wisdom, as well as the immense potential of the team. It is believed that with their collective efforts, this challenging project will undoubtedly yield fruitful results and leave a significant mark on the international film and television stage.
