Visual effects are the biggest highlight of the film. In the processing of props, the red balloon must have a prominent visual effect, bright red, round, smooth and bright big balloon, white, strong rope. The red balloon itself has a visual contrast with the gray Paris, and the visual focus of the red balloon can easily guide the audience, so a distinct visual element can help the rolling understand and integrate into the story.
The appearance design of the red balloon impressed me a lot: first of all, it was a long shot, in which the director completed the arrangement of the little boy going to school—discovering the red balloon—getting the red balloon. The stairs are shot upwards, following the previous shot. The child walks into the stairs. The panoramic view of the child is still focused on the little boy. The little boy discovers the red balloon before the audience. In the scheduling of this long shot, the director always focuses on the On the little boy, the audience discovered that the red balloon was achieved by the little boy climbing up the pole and the camera panning upwards. Shaking down, the little boy left the stairs after reaching the balloon and hurried to school. As an interlude in the story of "Going to School", this long shot completely records this segment, maintains the integrity of the "interlude", and leaves room for "connecting the previous and the next", and the rhythm is complete and coherent.
The second thing that impressed me was the close-up of the boy's face after being denied boarding the bus for the first time. This should be the first close-up of the boy's face in this film. In this close-up, the little boy first looked at the conductor in confusion. , and then look up at the balloon, there are no lines in this paragraph, but through the design of this close-up, we seem to hear the boy wondering: why the balloon can't get on the bus, what did the balloon do wrong. In this close-up, I feel that the little boy's mood is serious and serious, and his doubts reveal simplicity. The realization of this effect comes from the moment when this close-up appears. The previous scenes were all around the panorama. This close-up's The sudden use is an obvious emphasis, allowing the audience who originally identified with the boy's emotions to smoothly accept his serious doubts.
