Three Wan Li in Chang 'an is a very, very unique animated film. It jumped out of the "mythical adaptation" that most path depends on animation and even the whole screen animation circle, and cut into the category of "historical drama" in one fell swoop, and the history it covers is the "history of Tang Dynasty poetry" that all fans who have attended middle school are very familiar with.
With the narrative strategy of the intersection of reality and reality, multi-dimensional characters and Tang aesthetic style, the film's creative team wrote the epic of the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty with great pen and ink, and expressed the feelings of Chang 'an and Wan Li. This film's sense of intersection between reality and fiction mainly comes from its unique narrative perspective.
The film adopts the narrative mode of "two male masters", traces his life with Li Bai through the words of comfort in his later years, and takes their friendship as an opportunity to explain the history of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline. The third-person narrative perspective gives the film an alienated effect. The audience watched Tang Shi and the Tang people, writing legendary epics and poems for Li Bai.
Behind-the-scenes tidbits of Chang 'an Three Wan Li.
The title of "Chang 'an Three Wan Li" comes from "Dream of Chang 'an Three Wan Li, and the sea breeze blows off the western end" in Chen Zilong's Joining the Army in Ming Dynasty. At the same time, the title also points out the theme of the film. "Chang 'an" represents the "ideal place" in Gao Shi and Li Bai's mind, and "Three Wan Li" is the distance between them and their ideal.
There are 48 Tang poems in this film. How to visualize the artistic conception of Tang poetry is a great challenge. The creative team finally chose Yellow Crane Tower, Lai Jinjiu and Yan Gexing as the main products. The production cycle of the whole project is * * * three years, and the production time of the three-minute "Into the Wine" montage spans nearly two years.
The lines and colors of Xiangyun come from ancient murals. The creator uses special effects software to make it three-dimensional, and then carries out in-depth modification to form a delicate level. Through calculation and simulation, the real gas rotation and flow effects are produced, so that the wonderful fantasy is built into a real and sensible landscape.
