General methods of literature analysis

Literature analysis is a common topic in the art examination of choreographer and choreographer, and it is also the weakness of many students. Many students often write documentaries as film reviews. There is a difference between the two. So, what is a documentary, and what are its narrative techniques and characteristics? This paper gives a brief description of the documentary.

Documentary is a film and television work that gives a systematic and complete on-the-spot report on political, economic, military, cultural, natural and historical events by means of photography or video recording, giving people a certain aesthetic enjoyment.

First, the characteristics of the documentary

1, true reproduction

Documentary always reproduces the truth, and authenticity is the life of documentary. The truth he asked for is a kind of truth without assumptions, which is to restore the original appearance of life. It must go to real life to find and find life content with artistic connotation, and express real events, real people, real scenes and real life processes through real records.

2. Transcendence in presentation

Although documentary is a true record, it expresses what the creator wants to express through editing and narration on the basis of the superficial meaning of things. Motive? Where is it? Look at the essence of events through the phenomena of things.

Second, the documentary narrative

1, long lens

The most commonly used narrative technique of documentary is the extensive use of long lens narrative.

The so-called long shot is the kind of continuous action shot that lasts for a long time. The biggest advantage of this kind of lens is that time and space will not be divided, and it is relatively complete and consistent, so it can not only give people a strong sense of reality and intimacy, but also record the original ecological life well.

2. Actual sound

The actual sound is also an important means of documentary. The actual sound means shooting and recording at the same time, rather than dubbing in the studio later. The actual sound actually refers to simultaneous recording. Real sound is a process of film recording, which records the real sound of the scene, which is more natural and true than the later dubbing. It will make the sound effect of the film more vivid. When shooting pictures in different scenes, the sounds made by the characters in various environments are very real.

3. Character interpretation

Most of them appear in the form of voice-over, which can make the picture expression more complete and rich, and also bring people a sense of gain and taste beyond their horizons. A real documentary needs a trinity of long lens, real voice and character explanation to truly restore a true and complete' world'.

Third, the theme of the documentary

Generally speaking, if we summarize the themes of documentaries, there are mainly social themes and natural themes.

1, social theme

The so-called social theme refers to the theme closely related to people's social life and directly related to history or reality.

Features: it has strong characteristics of the times, freshness, complexity and visualization, or it can reflect the style of the times, touch the contradictions of the times, reveal the essence of the times and embody the spirit of the times; Either those unusual events that people are not familiar with but are generally interested in; Or those who have experienced twists and turns, profound ideological content, complete events, and are also suitable for TV image performance.

2. Nature theme

The so-called natural theme refers to the theme with nature as its content, which generally has the characteristics of knowledge, thought and appreciation. The biggest difference between it and those documentaries with social content is that it has high aesthetic value, strong sense of form and gives people beautiful enjoyment with high artistry.
