1905 movie network news Produced and directed by Shanghai Animation Film Studio, the classic animation of China officially landed in major cinemas across the country on November 5th, and released a word-of-mouth special. Many viewers who had watched the premiere before spontaneously came to Amway after watching the film, saying that they didn’t know why it was one of the best China animations in the eyes of countless people until they watched the film. "The feeling of watching on the big screen is different", "Let the world know that this is the real China animation" and "Many things with China characteristics that we pursue are in this film".
Since the film was self-edited, the film "Tianshu Qitan 4K Commemorative Edition" has caused many hot discussions among netizens for its sincere display of China traditional culture. At the previous premiere, the deeply rooted role images, funny and humorous story contents and the beautiful national style of brush and ink landscapes were unanimously recommended by many peers in the industry and the media. With today’s release, the film, which was hailed as a "landmark", officially met the national audience on the big screen, and the four behind-the-scenes highlights were also announced one by one.
Aspect 1: Meeting with History Witness the significance of China’s animation inheritance after 38 years.
Thirty-eight years ago, the film was born, and the classics that condensed the efforts of countless artists were born. Fantastic ideas, profound China myths and stories, and extremely advanced role images have captured countless audiences. Today, it is still regarded as one of the best China animations by many people.
Thirty-eight years later, the film "Tianshu Qitan 4K Commemorative Edition" was released nationwide on November 5, spanning the long river of time, and this profound China animation once again entered the public’s field of vision. For the audience who have seen it, this restoration is a gift to let them go back to childhood, while for the audience who have not yet experienced it, this work can make them feel refreshed. Since the development of China animation, the inheritance and innovation behind it have always remained unchanged, and "The Wonder Tan in the Book of Heaven" is one of the important works that cannot be ignored in the development process. Today’s restoration and release is not only popular, but also a lesson from history.
Aspect 2: Talk to yourself and focus on the core of China’s animation "fantastic beauty"
As an animated feature film, the drawing process of "Tian Shu Qi Tan" is full of hardships. According to director Yunda Qian’s recollection, painters judged the time required for the characters’ lines by lip-synching with stopwatches, so as to draw the corresponding mouth shapes of the characters. Painters worked overtime day and night, painting for three years, and finally created this classic in the history of China animation with perseverance and talent. Different from the image of "Gao Daquan" created by mainstream literary and artistic works at that time, "Tian Shu Qi Tan" focuses on the unique aesthetics of strangeness, interest and beauty. The unique character modeling and imaginative strangeness, vivid and three-dimensional interest of various characters and beauty of national art and culture in the film fully show the creative core of China animation.
Famous media people and writers once praised the film’s "family fun" characteristics at its premiere. She sincerely recommended all the audience to take their children into the cinema to watch, and said that the best parent-child relationship is to take their children to watch cartoons they watched as children. The famous film and television director also recalled his childhood fun after watching the film. He once put a cake on his head like an egg. Sometimes the pleasure brought by the film is not only the movie itself, but also the memory and emotion it brings. Well-known film and television actors said that they were very honored to see it in the cinema, and they had no regrets in their childhood.
Aspect 3: Coexistence with the Times, Advanced Interest Adapting to the Choice of Watching Movies for All Ages
The simple but not simple storyline and vivid and interesting character images of "The Wonderful Tale of Heaven" show us the unique features of the Chinese nation, so that folk art, ancient myths and national wisdom can be presented and passed down in the form of animation. Audiences of all ages can find childlike innocence and fun in the film, such as the strange-looking fox mother, which left an indelible impression on many people’s hearts after 70 s and 80 s. For the first-time audience, many plots in the film are attractive enough, such as the cornucopia constantly "copying" dad’s famous scenes, etc. In the previous advance viewing, many people said that "it was the first time I saw it, and it was very novel and fun", which proved that its story content is still out of date and timeless, and it can not only enjoy the visual baptism of the beautiful national scenery, but also appreciate many excellent traditional cultures.
Aspect 4: Blending with the nation and carrying forward China’s excellent traditional culture have a long way to go.
Today, with the prevalence of multiculturalism, many excellent works have emerged in the animation market at home and abroad. The restoration and release of "The Wonder of Heaven" has made many people start to think about the significance of China’s animation. China’s 5,000-year-old civilization has provided a good cornerstone for China’s animation creation. With its unique style and perspective, China Animation School has a special place in the world animation stage, which highlights the fine tradition of China culture and has its own unique national characteristics.
As one of the representative works of China School, the film "The Wonder of Heaven" draws lessons from the artistic elements such as paintings, sculptures, toys and operas in China’s traditional culture, and brings together many folk images, such as a large number of folk music used as background music, and the little emperor marveled at the "birds flying at the phoenix", walking on stilts, dancing dragons and lions and other folk activities, which can be described as a "folk grand view garden". The modeling of the three foxes draws lessons from the traditional Chinese opera facial makeup, which makes the audience unforgettable; The gardens, palaces, courtyards and mountains and rivers in the film follow the "wu school" style, drawing the human landscape with meticulous brushwork and heavy colors, and drawing the natural landscape with elegant ink and wash. The revisiting and attaching importance to the "China School" is, on the one hand, to commemorate the forgetfulness, and, on the other hand, to take history as a mirror to arouse the rethinking of nationalization in China’s animation creation.
The 4K Commemorative Edition of Tian Shu Qi Tan officially landed on the national big screen on November 5, and the classic is full of vitality of the times. I believe it will bring an excellent viewing experience that cannot be missed to many audiences!
