Hongfa mermaid photography

The development of the film and television industry cannot be separated from everyone's efforts in all aspects. Among them, only the actors in front of the stage can be known to the public. To some extent, the casting of actors represents the aesthetic feeling and viewing experience that this work can show to the public. The preview of the live-action version of The Little Mermaid, which caused heated discussion, was released. In the film, the role of the little mermaid Ariel is played by a black actress to show her voice. But magically, the public's attention is not the same as usual, but it is discussing the bad influence of the actor's choice on this classic fairy tale image. The classic fairy tale The Little Mermaid, which has lasted for hundreds of years, will also become a challenge that Disney Company has to face.

First, compared with other Disney princesses, Ariel's character image has been solidified by the public's aesthetics from the beginning. In Andersen's fairy tales and many works derived from them, Ai Lier's evaluation is inseparable from a beautiful red hair. This distinctive image feature creates the necessary conditions for the continuation of this classic: impressive beauty. From a practical point of view, it is inevitable for whites, especially Celts and Germans, to produce red hair genes. This kind of biological evidence based on reality has a certain influence on the casting of this film, and it is also the main source of public dissatisfaction with colored actors playing the Little Mermaid.

Secondly, singing is the most important condition for her personal experience, and the actress chosen on this basis must have certain vocal conditions. Still qualified for the requirements put forward by the production company, although Harley? Bailey's voice condition is very good, and her songs have been recognized by the public, but in fact, her skin color and face value are obviously very different from the original, and even have serious differences with the public's personal cognition. This work may go down in history, but it relies on great controversy among colored actors and inappropriate casting.

Finally, the release of the pilot film has represented the ability level of the director and producer to a great extent, but the role selection should always be based on facts. Even if this work can leave a deep impression on the public, in fact, it does not rely on the beauty and charm of the film art itself. Fairy tales are gradually bowing to reality.
