Title: Snow White

Genre: Fairy Tale

Storyline: The Queen learns from the magic mirror that Snow White is the most beautiful person in the world, and she is jealous and wants to murder Snow White. Seeing the love between Snow White and the prince, the queen began to implement a plan. She called a hunter and wanted him to kill Snow White in the forest and bring her heart back.

The hunter saw Snow White's cute, optimistic and kind-hearted heart, and finally disobeyed the queen's order, telling Snow White the truth and letting her run away.

Snow White encountered a group of small animals in the forest, and they took Snow White to find a place to live. The owner of the house is not at home, and Snow White wants to spend the night in exchange for cleaning the house. When Snow White arrived in the bedroom, she found that there were seven small beds, but she fell asleep too tired to think about it.

While Snow White was sleeping, the owner of the house, the Seven Dwarfs, returned. Seeing the light in the room, they found Snow White in the bedroom. Impressed by Snow White's beauty and cuteness, the dwarves agreed to let Snow White stay. Snow White cooks for the dwarves, sings and dances with them, and gets along very well.

The queen on the other side knew what the hunter had deceived and decided to make her own poison and disguise herself to kill Snow White.

The next day the dwarves went to work as usual, and before they left, they warned the queen to be careful with the work of Snow White. Snow White was making dessert at home, and the queen took the poisoned apple and told Snow White that this was a mouthful of apples that could make a wish. Seeing that Snow White was in danger, the little animals ran to the dwarves. When the dwarves came back to see the poisoned Snow White, they thought she was dead and couldn't bear to bury her, so they made a crystal coffin.

The prince arrived after hearing the news, kissed Snow White, the princess was resurrected, bid farewell to the dwarves and the small animals, and lived happily with the prince.

Color: The pictures are colorful and playful, most of them use warm tones, and some pictures use black and gray when they express fear of darkness. When Snow White fled to the depths of the forest, there was a color separation, creating a sense of illusory, lost fear.

Shots: There are a variety of shots in the picture, including some close-up shots and some metaphorical shots. When the queen decided to harm Snow White, she gave two vulture shots, which meant the ending of the queen's death.

Editing: Post-production takes full advantage of montage editing. When the queen harmed Snow White with a poisonous apple, the other side interspersed and edited the dwarves and small animals trying their best to go home to rescue Snow White, thus capturing the audience's emotions and making the audience nervous about Snow White's fate.

As the first color animation, although some small flaws can still be seen in the smoothness of the picture, and the sound is obviously blurred, the sound and picture are on the same track, the color control, the lens type and the full use of editing are amazing. As a film changed from a fairy tale, the screenwriter also revised the script, making Snow White's story brighter and more optimistic.
