He is known for his fantasy in movies. Although the pictures are gorgeous, they are eerily dark and damp. Although it is an entertainment film, in fact his film is very literary. The sunshine mood of life is relatively simple, and it takes a process for the people to adapt to it.
The batman series is said to be quite aristocratic, but in fact it is aristocratic in the imagination of the commoners. If he shoots batman, the temperament will be in harmony.
michael bay, Roland Emmerich, etc., the picture is very strong, but it can be seen that they have no artistic talent. They are strong in doing a good job in engineering and have strong overall planning ability. This is rare.
Not only does james cameron do a good job in engineering, but he can naturally add a little bit of truth to ordinary people's feelings in a boring action movie (such as the gradual humanization of robots in T2; the mid-life crisis of ordinary couples in true lies) , this is bullshit.
The director is really good at moving the camera, and the camera language is excellent, it is David Fincher and Spielberg, and it is very comfortable to watch one shot after another. This is equivalent to a good composition and writing, not fancy, but the use of words is accurate, the words are used freely, and the succession and transformation are all kung fu. Among the foreign directors, the bully is the director of Malena, but I personally think it is a bit worse than the previous two.
Zhang Yimou claims to be a visual department, but his vision is actually only the use of large color blocks with strong contrasting colors, which is somewhat like Kurosawa Akira. However, Zhang Yimou's camera lens is relatively dull, and he is much stronger than him in this regard. Zhang Neng has a relatively big reputation in the international film industry, which is actually related to his origin in a big country like China. When conducting film festivals, we must always pay attention to representation. A big country like China with a long history and a huge population and a certain international status must always have a representative.
This is similar to Zhang Mansheng becoming the vice president of the world bank. Of course, he would have a relationship and kept Stephen Sun busy, but based on his resume, in fact, he could not get that position. The key is that the cadres in the CCP financial system at that time were nothing. People have international financial knowledge and language ability, and wb also needs a vice president from China, so he caught up. Just like Lin Yifu's rise to power.

Hollywood films are scolded by everyone, saying that they are too cliché, but in fact they are much better than other countries' films. Just talking about photography, this thing is both a technical and an artistic means, and the photographers who work in Hollywood have a deep foundation. A typical Hollywood commercial entertainment film (we are marshall, 27 dresses, which I have watched in the past few days), although there is no surprise in the way of photography, it is a combination of master shot, medium shot and then close-up immediately. Skilled use, the film is visually pleasing to the eye. Like most directors in China, when they talk about the themes of the film, they talk about these basic skills, and if you look at their films, it won't work.
Of course, when it comes to photography, because the level of Hollywood film sets is also very high, it often looks like the pictures are rich in color and rich in information. Compared with other countries, the images of films are relatively dry, which is not the responsibility of photography.
