Cinematography blockbuster

The short play Wolf Hunt directed by Cao Dun has received rave reviews since its launch. Among them, the film-level texture is the most praised by everyone. What exactly does the film texture mean? In this issue, we will analyze this well-known drama from the visual effect alone.

The most important thing about film texture is the texture on the screen. There is no sound in early movies (silent movies are also called silent films), so it can be seen that the picture is the main part of the movie, and the texture of the picture directly affects the quality of a movie. The TV series Wolf Hunt can feel the elements of the film from the composition, tone and scene. First of all, it adopts the wide-scale framework of the film, as well as the rich warm tones and magnificent scenes of the film. From the picture alone, it really achieves the film-level texture.

This set of pictures is a big scene silhouette shooting technique, which gives the audience a sense of mystery and tension and is a common shooting technique in movies.

The tone of this group of pictures is a common warm tone in movies, which is rarely used in TV series.

This group of pictures adopts the method of shooting the subject from a long distance, which is generally common on the big screen and can clearly explain the environment.

Of course, in addition to the picture, there are many factors that bring a sense of film, such as lens movement, scenery, scenes, movie rhythm and so on.

Judging from the film's tone and photographic composition, The Wolf Hunt directed by Cao Dun and On the Cliff directed by Zhang Yimou have similar painting styles and composition techniques in several famous shots.

The story setting at the beginning of the film, the same snow scene and the back mirror technique are all displayed through mountains and rivers and natural elements.

The same composition technique, this is the background composition of the long-shot big scene, which shows the feelings of the characters' sense of mission and loneliness very delicately.

Zhang Yimou and Cao Dun have multiple identities, namely director, photographer and screenwriter. Both directors are photographers. They have a stubborn pursuit of the beauty of the picture when creating, and they all like to use the beautiful atmosphere to set off the atmosphere and convey their emotions. The film and television works they directed are not only wonderful in content, but also a visual feast.

This is really a TV series that looks like a movie.
