"Shaun the Sheep" is the latest animated film of the lamb series produced by the British Aardman Company. The image of the previous lamb baa has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and more than 130 episodes of wonderful stories have been created. When it comes to clay animation, I have to say Aardman, because it is one of the best companies in the world for clay animation, and it is unsurpassed. The previous "Chicken Run" is a typical clay classic work of our company. It can be said that it is an animated film that has influenced a generation (I clearly remember the scene when the school teachers took everyone to watch this film in elementary school). The point is not that the various techniques of clay production (such as the stunning scene props, the novelty of frame-by-frame shooting, the perfect switching of 2D and 3D, etc.) make the audience laugh and surprise, but the feeling of the little people who dare to fight makes the audience unforgettable and the spiritual world. The positive energy always makes the audience unforgettable.
On a hot summer afternoon, the farmer and the lambs were lazily doing their own thing. The lambs couldn't bear it anymore and started to play. By accident, they pushed the owner's mobile house away. The owner happened to fall asleep, and he was taken to the city with the house and lost his memory. The lambs began to worry about the master's comfort. Unexpectedly, the master started a new life, seemingly silly and happy, but always inexplicably sad. The lambs began to miss their masters strongly and started rescue operations, and finally found their own masters. The plot of the film seems simple and easy to understand, but it actually contains huge philosophy and love.
At first, the life of the farmer and the sheep was repetitive and dull. Later, because of this accident, their relationship was enhanced. Later, when they went back, they lived the original boring life. The owner would still be sleepy, and so would the lambs. Boring, but the essence has changed. Their understanding of living this way has changed, and that's the crux of the matter. No matter what kind of life you live, you will eventually be bored. Therefore, you must find the shadow of happiness in the law and machinery, so that every ordinary day will be different and full of vitality.
The lamb team is also a complete manifestation of team consciousness. Some are responsible for making plans, some responsible for logistics, some responsible for laughing, and some responsible for practical actions. On the whole, this is what a best team should look like. If a team is full of elites, it may not be so good. If a team is full of waste, then it is estimated that this can not be called a team, and It's a dump. The movie teaches the audience some wisdom and positive form about the team.
Love must be a major theme that the film wants to express, not the love between people, but the kind of love between people and animals. In the film, several sheep who dress up as women are still successfully transferred to men. This is also a great irony of reality. People's eyes have been blinded, and what they see is what they want to see, and the truth is completely ignored. The pet collector in the film is an obstacle that prevents people from approaching the truth. It is wrong for him to prevent people from approaching beautiful things. The result must be engulfed by the truth and hated by the world. The owner loves the lambs, otherwise he would not be thinking about the indifferent days when he lived a good life. The lambs also love the master deeply, and the demeanor of worrying about gains and losses after being lost and found is also vividly expressed.
The film has no dialogue, and it is the scenes without dialogue that are strung together to form a film that is not difficult to understand at all. Dialogue is not the only means to understand the film, but the grasp of the details, which is the understanding of life. The premise of a good movie. Designers who make clay figures must have unique understanding and experience of life in order to make such vivid characters. This kind of animation is not only the audience and children, but also adults like to watch it, in order to achieve the effect of family fun, and parents and children also gain something is the correct way to let the audience enter the theater again and turn on the TV.
