What is Entertaiment?
Entertaiment is a multifaceted universe that caters to diverse interests, backgrounds, and emotional states. It can range from escapism to education, catharsis to cerebral engagement. From a children’s cartoon to a concert to a mystery novel, a puzzle to a strategy video game, the right form of entertainment can relax and uplift. It can even facilitate social interaction, whether by sharing a book or playing a multiplayer game.
Creative entertainment aims to push the boundaries of what has come before it, innovating in form, content, or presentation. It often evokes complex emotions (awe, sorrow, surprise, contemplation), taking the audience on an emotional journey. It requires artistic skill, high production quality, and an elevated level of intellectual engagement. This type of entertainment can have a lasting impact on the audience.
