玩過“電影卡拉OK”嗎？

K歌似乎已經(jīng)成為我們生活中最常見的一種娛樂方式，朋友聚會可以K歌，工作壓力大需要發(fā)泄也可以K歌，聚完餐不想回家還可以刷夜K歌。不過，據(jù)說國外曾經(jīng)流行過電影卡拉OK，你們聽說過嗎？

Movieoke is a form of entertainment in which a person acts out scenes from a movie while a silent version of the movie plays in the background.
電影卡拉OK是一種娛樂形式，指電影去掉原聲后播放，參與的人按照影片情節(jié)現(xiàn)場進行表演。

The film is projected onto a screen behind the actor and onto an alternate monitor which provides subtitles and action cues. Movieoke is a popular form of performative and interactive entertainment created by Anastasia Fite in New York City in 2003, and has since spread to other parts of the world.
影片會在參與者身后的屏幕上播放，同時會在另一個顯示器上顯示臺詞和表演提示。電影卡拉OK這種兼具表演和互動的娛樂形式是由安娜斯塔西婭·菲特于2003年在紐約首創(chuàng)的，之后傳遍全球。

This term combines movie with karaoke, that now classic entertainment form in which amateur crooners sing along to vocal-less versions of popular songs. The word karaoke entered the language around 1979 after being imported from Japan, where it means “empty orchestra.”
電影卡拉OK的英文movieoke是movie和karaoke兩詞的合成形式，卡拉OK現(xiàn)在已是經(jīng)典的娛樂方式，業(yè)余歌手們跟著無人聲演唱版本的流行歌曲伴奏引吭高歌。Karaoke一詞于1979年從日語引入英語，原意為“無人伴奏樂隊”。
