Love the look of this short film, the massive panorama and blue-gold color scheme evokes extreme comfort.
On the boat, the father is at the helm, the grandfather is sitting, and the children are excited, a typical image of three generations of grandparents.
The grandfather took out a hat, and the child took it after obtaining the consent of his father with his eyes. It can be seen that the relationship between the three is closely linked.
The part of wearing the hat, from the panorama to the close-up, is centered on the child. The child is constantly at the mercy of two adults, from left to right, from right to left, with a blank face. It can be seen that the family relationship is mutually restrictive. The father and grandfather are at odds, and the child is ignorant and does not know which side to stand on.
Children imitate the actions of their fathers and grandfathers, and every move of the elders in the family will have an impact on the younger generation.
The father took out the ladder from the cabin. The narrow space can extend the ladder of such a length, which hints at the magic of the film, and it will not be too surprising when the child floats up later.
The child cautiously climbed the ladder, and when he looked back halfway, he was willing to continue climbing when his grandfather waved to him. The obvious relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is closer, and a little tough and imperative guidance from the father makes the child less confident and less courageous about the unknown.
The 360° flip of the lens after climbing onto the moon should be regarded as the strongest visual impact of the film. The sound is also slightly stronger at this moment. The story enters the main line.
The huge star fell to the ground, ending the quarrel between father and grandfather. The star is located directly above the screen and occupies a larger frame. The three people are directly below it. The three positions are basically the same. Obviously, this means that they must work together. Face and resolve this difficulty.
Father and grandfather kept using various tools, and they couldn't do anything about this star, but the child kept watching. Combined with the analysis just now, if one party does not solve it, the difficulty will definitely not be resolved.
What follows is what I think is the key part of the film. I think "wearing a hat" should be the mother action of this film, but the adults always put it on the child, the adult instructs the child, and the adult decides the child. This is not the key to the child's growth. And when the child has his own opinion and decides to implement it, turning the brim of the hat that has been pressing in front of his eyes to the back, this can be regarded as "growth".
Like "Baby Bao", the characters only open their eyes when they are extremely surprised. The growth of the child surprised the elders, so there is such a picture.
All in all, this film is a bit difficult for me to understand, but I believe its key word is still "love and growth".
