This winter, I want to write a letter to Claus, put it in an envelope, take a penny, and have Mr. Jasper, the postman, deliver it for me. When I was a child, every time I saw the appearance of Santa Claus in cartoons, it quietly brought surprises to children. I will be very happy, and I am looking forward to Santa Claus coming. But I didn't write letters, I didn't have socks hanging by my bed, and I didn't have any of Santa's favorite cookies. That's why I haven't received a Christmas present for so many years! It dawned on me today after learning the Christmas secret. In the animated film "Klaus: The Secret of Christmas", the two families living on the gray island are fighting every day, and children cannot play freely and go to school well. Not a single ray of sunshine. But all this changed with the selfless dedication of the postman Jasper and the woodcutter Claus, and the story is very warm. Everyone wants feedback from others, and Jasper and Klaus do the same, but they want something different. The postman, who was originally a child of a wealthy family, could continue to return to a wealthy and worry-free life after completing the task of 6,000 letters, but he still chose to stay. Said the boatman: Strange, I've never seen anyone sadder to leave than to come. The woodcutter, who used to be indifferent to the world, said he would never make toys again because of his dead wife, but because of a letter that Jasper accidentally brought, he started his "Santa Claus" career. After he completed the gift order for more than ten years, the old man followed Snowflake and said silently to his wife: I am here. On the dark island in the past, the children were playing happily, the classroom songs were bright, like the warm sun outside the window, and the years of hatred between the two families had long since disappeared, and everyone had a party under the lights. The children said: Write to Claus and he will give you the toys you want, remember to put them in an envelope and bring a penny by the way. Otherwise, it wouldn't count as writing a letter, would it? The innocent and happy laughter of children, the harmonious coexistence of neighbors, and all kinds of
Regarding the analysis of the lens language, I have a very impressive clip of this animation. It is a clip of Klausji being excited, happy and re-energized when the children first came to send letters. The first shot is a close-up, the door is fixed with wooden boards, and the back is pressed with wooden sticks, which shows Jasper's fear from the scene.
Finally, about the artistic style of the film. The artistic style of this film is the style of picture book illustrations that I particularly like. In terms of characters, basic geometry is used to transform and then combine, and then greatly exaggerated, enlarged, and reduced to form a In this unique character, in geometry, circles often represent cuteness and softness, just like the images of children in animation, most of them have round faces and round animal bodies, not as angular and angular as adults. . (The file is too big, so I won’t post a picture haha) And the triangle is stable and firm, but the sharp edges and corners may also be regarded as a symbol of evil. In this animation, there are more stable triangles, such as those who have just appeared on the stage. The commander, the whole body forms an obvious inverted triangle, which looks majestic and aura. In animation, the use of trapezoid is also very common, and it is often used on chubby characters, such as the little pumpkins in the two major families. The protagonist Klaus is a rectangle as a whole, with the characteristics of integrity and honesty. These geometric processing features magnify the character's characteristics and have a unique style, which is often deeply influential. In addition to the characteristics of the character modeling, the coloring style of the characters also adopts a special two-color rendering and three-dimensional rendering. The junction of light and dark of the characters is very soft, and the whole picture looks unique, and the background adopts a two-dimensional style, but in terms of overall shape and color It blends well with the characters. In terms of performance, although the characters are very geometric, they are very flexible in performance, making the characters lively and vivid. The magic of animation is that after such exaggerated processing, what we experience is not strange, but makes the soul of the character more interesting and the performance more perfect. This is also the reason why I especially like this movie. The style, characteristics and performance methods of the movie are also worthy of our exploration and study.
