If only I were to say two words to describe the feeling I felt after watching "Tian Di Xuan Huang". That is: shock. The fascination of the undialogued images expressing the power of "silence" is vividly displayed in this documentary. The music and sound of the documentary are matched with the picture, and it is really a pleasure to wear headphones. My favorite is the spectacular view of the waterfall cascading down. A drop of water may have no sound, just a sense of tickling vulnerability. And many water droplets gather together and pour down, the feeling of power will arise spontaneously. The wife was shocked.
Every frame of "Tian Di Xuan Huang" is a very good photographic work. Sometimes I even suspect that I'm looking at dynamic photography exhibitions. But it is so absurd that seemingly unrelated pictures connect the history of human development. There are also some places where cross montages are particularly interesting. Especially in the crowds coming and going on the subway, in the later stage, the exaggerated processing was performed to show the incisively and vividly the people who came and went like a machine, and a group of chickens who were "slaughtered" and selected by people were cross-edited together. It really gives me a feeling that many people have lost the life attitude and soul as pure as the primitive people after the development of human society. Many of them have lost themselves. Manipulated by society, imprisoned by reality. Just like a chick, there is no freedom. Like chicks, they also face the competition of survival of the fittest. Well-grown chicks are left with the possibility of providing a source of interest for people, while chicks with slightly defective growth are eliminated. So whether it's good or bad chicks, they don't have freedom. side reflected. People, too.
In general, the rhythm of the documentary is very slow, and in the video without dialogue, music is particularly important. The music of the documentary achieves a sense of storytelling. The music at the beginning can gradually substitute us into the world of documentaries. It's such a slow pace. Suddenly to the middle part, in order to show the modern sense of people coming and going. The rhythm of the music echoes the rhythm of the picture. The music gradually becomes faster and faster, and the picture also becomes faster. There are also interesting images that echo. Poor people are making tobacco, and people with decent living conditions buy tobacco to satisfy themselves. Therefore, everyone in this world has their own meaning and value, and the key is how they view themselves.
