The role of visual elements in Zhang Yimou's film and television works

Zhang Yimou was born in photography, and he attached great importance to the use of color. In the past, red was the main color to make the finishing touch, but at the beginning of Hero, he used richer colors to express it.

Generally, the colors he chooses are mainly the colors of jumping and comfort, which are used to set off the plot. Some colors express contrast, while others are used to aggravate the protagonist's psychology.

For example, "House of Flying Daggers" is mainly green, which shows the femininity and vitality of the heroine.

Contrast murder with green.

Compare human blood with snow.

The hero propped up Qin's inner activities with colorful cloth strips, and the yellow sand and white sand in the desert set off the present situation of Tony Leung Chiu Wai.

Use more natural colors in movies.

The most successful application of color is the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, which is a perfect opening ceremony suitable for both static and dynamic.

The application of various effects of lighting and electricity is much better than the effect of rapid alternating changes of various single lasers on the general stage, which is suitable for both motion and static. Laser fluorescent lamp has become a static and gradual multi-color fusion, and the selected picture and composition can best explain the artistic conception of the scene at that time. Pay attention to the scene performed in the center of the scroll and the display of the scroll, which is really good. Looms and colorful flying shapes match, movable type printing and the Great Wall, tea and black dancers, as well as ancient scrolls of Tang Dynasty costumes. . . . .
