至關重要

to introduce to them what science and technology can do

電影將介紹在金星計劃的指引下

under the direction of the Venus Project,

在資源導向型經濟中

within a resource-based economy.

I think a motion picture can be played over and over again;

電影可以反覆播放

it can be translated into many different languages

並可被翻譯成各國語言

and it could do far more than my personal lectures

The basic ideas for the film are laid out precisely,

are... technology overcoming and killing people,

dictatorial governments and technology watching your every move.

獨裁政府會利用科技監視人們的一舉一動

This is quite the opposite of the Venus Project

則持完全不同的看法

and this is what we want to get across to the public-

這正是我們想向公眾傳播的想法

that you don't have to be afraid of technology.

即人們無需對科技感到恐慌

We want to show how the methods of science can be used

If we spent the money any other way,

I don't think it would be as effective.

and do it in a entertaining way

so we could bring the public along with it.

讓公眾更好地接受

and what we need perhaps of a writer is putting it in terms

我們或許需要一位寫手用通俗的語句來表述

that might be easily understood or acceptable.

讓大家更容易理解或接受

It will have a lot of CGI in it which is expensive

影片將應用許多製作昂貴的三維動畫

because it does take place in the future.

But it depends on when and what kind of funds we get.

但這取決於資金的來源 以及何時能籌集足夠的資金

That will dictate, say, the type of script;

從而決定劇本類型

the more funding, the more elaboration.

with the definite direction to work towards,

會有明確的努力方向

and knowing the difference between what they have today
