Pixar's classic animated short film "Kidnapping Lesson" _Tencent Video v.qq.com
As we all know, this is the first animated short film shot by Pixar, and the image of the table lamp in the film will become Pixar’s classic logo in the future.
Male: But the most important question now is that I don’t understand this short video, and I don’t know what is so good about the small lamp? The highlights and art are all invisible, in short, there is no feel...
Can't find the answer in online film reviews?
Man: Except for being cute , no one seems to be able to say anything...
Have you ever thought: The small desk lamp as Pixar's logo is definitely not just because it is the first Pixar award-winning work.
Man: Is there still learning here?
Think about it: What size company is Pixar? There are so many talents, and his first animation actually made such a thing, there is no story, no characters, what is the good thing in the end? For so many years, apart from the international judges, the masters of art have been in awe of the film, but few people in the public can understand it. Isn’t it strange...?
Man: Yes, why did Pixar think of investing in such a story, saying it is cute or funny ...? Don't get to the side!
How many animated images in the United States? Talking about funny, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Cat and Mouse, any segment can make you laugh...
Biao "kawaii"? Just find any animal with fur, which one can't compare to this little lamp?
Don’t forget that this film is " the pioneering work ". It will be a blockbuster when it is filmed, and it will take an Oscar and lead Pixar into the top international animation company...
Suppose you are a Pixar decision-maker and someone proposes such a project...Dare you arrogantly reject the crowd to make decisions for the company's future?
Man: Then vote by show of hands? I asked some film critics about his thoughts and suggestions about the film...
Ha, ridiculous! "The layman is watching the excitement, the expert is watching the doorway." Do you listen to the opinions of those film critics...?
Now that the filming is over, it's in front of you... Ask, what do they understand?
In art, do you have a shit when you listen to these "fake experts" and "two knives"? !
Man: That's true! These people practice one thousand people and one thousand Hamlet. What is the difference between my big boss at Pixar and this bunch of "Hamlet"? Too low...
Fortunately, you are a top international animation production company, and you will never have any " banal " or pretenders under your hands...that's easy! In the future, we will all close our doors and engage in art . If this knife is slashed, sparks will be fired... Pixar has done it!
Soon after, one after another, they became Oscar-winning professional... what is it for? Just two words: art !
so, why do small desk lamps have to be logos, here is a lot of knowledge...
Man: I know, you and the layman have always eat popsicles and pull popsicles, nothing...but I'm not an outsider, please tell me, what is this "little lamp" so awesome? How can it be art?
Oye! Then please come up with our four-dimensional integrated pull film analysis method to interpret this 4-minute animated short film...
At the beginning of the film, a table lamp, at this time pay attention: socket and two wires ...
Small ball roll over, lamp mother taking a closer look ...... anthropomorphic , not much to say!
The mother of the desk lamp pushed the little ball over with her head. As soon as she came and went, it can be seen that the mother of the desk lamp maintains a strong interest and curiosity in the little ball !
The next plot can be learned...
When the ball rolled to the other side of the lamp, the lamp mother turned her head and looked around ...
Let me ask a question:
Can the lamp mother dance...? Is the base firmly fixed to the table?
Male: No! The lamp's mother once moved slightly twice. Seeing the small lamp suddenly jumped over, it seemed to be taken aback, and instinctively stomped back...it means that the lamp's mother will move!
good! If we think about it this way, the mother of the desk lamp will move her body because of surprise. !
Key thought: Why doesn't the lamp mother dance...?
Man: Is it because the lamp mother is afraid of breaking the wire ?
Ok, now you have learned to reason, great! Let's continue to watch...
After the little lamp made a move, it jumped onto the ball... As a result, the ball was discouraged!
Man: Yes, but it was just a small ball. Later, there was a big ball , which was bigger than a small lamp... Then the film ended without a head and tail, and it stopped abruptly ... What did I want to show? ?
When the little table lamp squashes the little football, look carefully at it and the movements of the table lamp mother...
The little lamp raised his head and asked for her mother's advice, as if asking: I'm holding it back, what should I do? Is it leaking, is it impossible to play, is the little ball dead...?
Note: Mom nodded, and then the little lamp lowered her head in frustration...
Male: Oh, understand, these are all subtext!
Yes, I don’t know much about art. I understand it naturally. If I don’t understand art, I say it for a long time. He said that I read too much...
Man: Just ignore them, a bunch of laymen! However, what is the connection between this and the theme of the film?
Learning is on this power socket ...
You just said, why didn’t mother jump, because she knew that if the cable was not long enough, the light would go out ...
Man: It's the same as that little ball? I'm suffocated, I'm dead, blow the lamp and pull the wax, burp cold and begonia...
This is the analogy!
Small ball, big ball, small lamp, big lamp...
What do two lamps rely on if they want to shine? Electricity……
Two balls, if you want to roll, what do you rely on? gas……
The little table lamp hummed, jumping around, stepping on the ball. But it forgot the tail (wire) behind it. What is it called? Constraints, rules...
Now that the big ball is coming, you have the ability to jump on its back, you stepped on it... is it possible?
Man: That's true! But I still have to ask, what about the main idea?
Haven't you seen it yet from the analysis? Stupid enough!
Look at the big lamp, no matter the head or waist, it is very flexible, but every movement of its limbs is within a certain range , heading the ball, watching the ball, communicating...
Man: Yes, it never jumps, unlike a small desk lamp...
The end of the little table lamp is that the little ball will leak (power off) sooner or later...
The big ball, no one can hurt it, why?
Your little desk lamp is destined to not jump so high, just because you are a little desk lamp...
Man: What does this mean?
Lack of experience, no rhyme with the world, don’t understand the power of the relationship, don’t see your own weaknesses, disadvantages... can you grow up?
So what thoughts do you want to express in this film?
Male: ...don't know...
Your mind is really bad! Look at these pictures at the end of the film...
Have you seen them, all of them are sample drafts, working drawings... Show the audience their production process, what can you see? Work attitude, meticulous and meticulous!
Is the theme of this film coming out now?
"I know very well what I should do, what I can do, do everything within the scope of my ability, earnestly, and do my animation well..." This is Pixar's declaration to the world!
Man: Wow, now I finally understand! No wonder Pixar made a desk lamp into the company's logo , no wonder Pixar's pioneering work, the first investment was in the small desk lamp project ... This creative idea is really hidden too deep!
To engage in art, the most basic requirement is to understand art , then one by one, steady and steady, focusing on quality but not weight... But now you count, how many international animation awards Pixar has won...?
Male: It's really impossible if you don't understand art. The Oscar can't understand it, and I can't play it ! In addition, I beg you, don’t say I am stupid in the future, it will make people lose confidence!
Ha, the thing "confidence" is anesthetic, hallucinogenic, and forms mental dependence... Its essence is to deceive yourself , the emperor's new outfit...
Male: Yes, just like Chinese football: the result of self-righteousness is to laugh and be generous , crushed, crushed... a must!
Well, be down-to-earth, study these excellent masterpieces carefully, whether you are playing movies or doing art, this is the most basic "craftsman spirit" ...
Male: Yes! Then I will go back and watch it a few times, and I must have figured out this short film...
