Chapter 1182
The beautiful hand-drawn animation at the beginning of the movie, as well as the perfect combination of colors, coupled with an excellent soundtrack, can be said to have set the tone for this excellent work, and also made the audience have more expectations.
In the cinema, everyone is looking forward to the development of the story behind, and they are engrossed in it.
In the picture, Chihiro's family of three passes through a dark tunnel to a strange town, attracted by the food in the restaurant, and her parents start to eat and drink on their own despite the strange atmosphere around them and Chihiro's persuasion, while Chihiro runs alone to the bridge and goes out on an adventure, and meets a teenager who warns her to leave quickly.
The picture is still very beautiful, completely giving people a visual enjoyment, and the immersive feeling of 3D pursuit is different, 2D hand-drawn animation, giving people a pure visual beauty, will not make you feel uncomfortable.
Of course, if an animated film wants to be successful, if it wants to be called an excellent animated film, and if it wants to keep the audience engaged, the key lies in the plot.
Of course, there is no shortage of humorous and funny parts, such as in the characterization of the characters, Chihiro's parents, the greed to eat meat when they see it and Chihiro's awkward emotions that don't want to join them, this plot makes many people want to laugh.
But it highlights the character of Chihiro's parents, laying the groundwork for the subsequent plot.
After all, even if it is an animated movie, many times, some changes, the development of some things, also need to conform to basic logic.
If Chihiro's parents didn't have these shortcomings, then it would be a bit abrupt for her parents to be turned into piglets later, but with the foreshadowing of this plot, it seems that they were turned into piglets after that.
After Chihiro meets the mysterious boy 'White Dragon', as the two talk, the picture begins to change dramatically, and the night suddenly falls, the peace is broken in an instant, and the originally empty streets are suddenly brightly lit and ghostly.
When Chihiro ran back to her parents' place to eat in a panic and found that her parents had turned into two pigs and were still greedily gobbling up the messy cups and plates, Chihiro was terrified and ran back to the steps, only to find that the grassland in front of her had turned into a wide river, and a beautiful and golden flower boat was coming in the night!
"Wow~~!"
The audience was so amazed by this scene that their scalps were numb, goosebumps all over their bodies, and they couldn't help but exclaim, and the screening hall exploded instantly!
It's a feeling that's hard to describe in words, on the one hand, it's tense, mysterious, weird, terrifying, etc., and on the other hand, the picture can be so beautiful that you forget everything in a moment.
It's obviously an animated movie, and it's not a 3D animated movie, but why does it give people such a feeling?
Cinema is an audio-visual art, and only by combining what you see with your eyes and what you hear with your ears can you perfectly feel the charm of cinema.
Therefore, the soundtrack is equally important for a movie, and the appearance of the mysterious boy 'White Dragon' before was a soundtrack with a repetitive rhythm, giving people a mysterious and tense feeling.
And then Chihiro found that his body was gradually becoming transparent and void by the river, and at this moment the mysterious boy White Dragon appeared again, and the music at this moment instantly calmed down, making the audience feel an inexplicable sense of security in him when they saw his appearance.
Through the soundtrack, combined with the picture plot, it brings a different kind of immersive feeling.
Why do some horror films, even though the plot is not so scary, give people a sense of horror? In fact, the soundtrack plays a considerable role in it.
Why do many domestic horror films obviously be bad movies, but when they watch them, they still have a sense of horror? Although they are criticized for using sound to scare people, in fact, sound itself is an indispensable part of the movie.
Of course, when the plot of a movie is dominated by sound, then the film must also be a failure.
Only the perfect fusion of the two is a real audio-visual feast!
The white dragon was to help Chihiro in the past, after calming Chihiro and using pills to stop Chihiro's transparent void, the rhythm of the music changed again, the rhythm was like a heart rate beating, the sound was small but it gave people a feeling of tension, like a silent lurking in the dark waiting for the enemy's attack, and then when he took Chihiro to dodge, the music continued to create a crisis atmosphere, and finally the two arrived at a safe place, and the song was also peaceful again.
In the movie, the prologue of the story begins, Chihiro, who breaks into a mysterious and fantasy world, begins her own adventure in order to save her parents, and the themes of growth, self-discovery and self-redemption are gradually emerging, and then inadvertently touching the heart. Like a line in a movie, I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way.
Animated films have long been considered to be movies for children, and there is still a big market for them.
The fact is also true, although animated movies are not just for children, but in fact, most animated movies, if you want to achieve good results, good box office, your target audience, must not only be adults, there must be a part for children.
Every animated film, or every movie, will have a theme.
So what's the theme of Spirited Away? It's a story about growing up. Of course, it's not just about growth.
The protagonist of "Spirited Away", Xiao Chihiro is a small pot friend, so it naturally has a great attraction to the little pot friends and a great sense of substitution.
On the whole, the plot of "Spirited Away" is actually very simple, you can't make it too complicated, because this is an all-age movie, more precisely, the audience of this movie is definitely the largest group of children.
The plot of the movie, the protagonist Chihiro's family breaks into a fantasy world, after her parents become pigs, Chihiro faces danger alone, faces despair, in the adventure of this fantasy town, she learns to be strong, brave, persistent, in the face of intricate problems and dangerous situations, she learns to work hard to overcome, so that she becomes independent and mature.
These superficial things are for children, why do they turn into piglets, and not other animals?
Adults will say that it's because Chihiro's parents are lazy and lazy, like piglets, but is this really the case? Yes, there are some reasons for this, but more because of the fact that piglets are very cute, even if this thing is terrible for Chihiro, but in the eyes of most of the little pot friends, they will still worry about Chihiro, but they will not be afraid, because they just become piglets!
Another is the shaping of the shape of the piglet, which is a very cute kind, not a very scary kind, which is for the market.
This story is very fairy tale, and very educational, so it's perfect for kids to watch, isn't it?
