投其所好：互动电影根据观众反应定结局

“We were sitting in a very long, very difficult edit and someone said, ‘Man, I wish we could just edit this thing with our minds.’ It was totally off-the-cuff but the idea stuck with me,” Armen Perian recalled about how he came up with the idea for The Angry River.

阿尔缅·佩里安回忆自己是如何想出《愤怒的河流》的创意时说：“当时我们正埋头于一个冗长艰巨的剪辑项目中，这时有人说，‘哎，我真希望可以用脑子来剪辑这个东西。’那只是一句随口说的话，但我却突然想到了这个创意。”

To make this interactive film possible, the filmmaker teamed up with Crossbeat New York, a tech company that developed the eye-tracking technology and the machine learning that controls the storyline. The movie itself was shot in Oregon and then edited into five distinct narrative perspectives, which can be assembled into a custom viewing experience that plays like a regular movie, but is actually tailored to suit the viewer’s interest.

为了做出互动电影，佩里安和科技公司Crossbeat New York合作，后者研发出了眼球追踪技术和控制故事线的计算机算法。这部电影在美国俄勒冈州拍摄完后，被剪辑为五个叙事视角的故事线，这些故事线整合在一起，可以像普通电影一样播放，但能够投用户所好，提供定制观影体验。

图片 The Angry River plays like a normal movie, but in the background, eye-tracking technology collects data on what the viewer is most interested in and feeds it to an algorithm which then decides how the movie changes based on what is being viewed. So instead of directors and editors deciding the outcome of the story, viewers get to do it themselves.
