"Baby Bao", directed by Shi Zhiyu and produced by Pixar, won the Best Short Film at the 91st Academy Awards.
The short film begins with a series of long shots that define the background of the story in a Chinese family.
In the cover, the mother is lying in front of a small window, giving a faint depression.
The use of the lens throughout the article is not dazzling, with a large number of fixed camera positions and no-skill editing. There is only one dissolve and one camera shift. (Perhaps to express a habit of being content with the status quo?) Theater spotlights at the end of dreams and blurring after waking up
In multiple punch cards, I found that there are a lot of details in the film. Such as the lines on the breakfast TV:
- You don't even want a home for that vixen - that's my wife, not a vixen - I'm pulling you big with shit and piss
This dialogue is a foreshadowing of the end of the dream. Baozi and his girlfriend left, and the mother was reluctant to bear her son.
In addition, if there is an extra chair in the house, the living room, the pictures on the walls of the son's room and the mother's room
It is possible to set up the scene, decorate the home and the neighborhood. Indicates a gathering place in China. Three times the CN Tower, the Canadian flag. Build a familiar Chinatown.
The music of the short film is well received, a large number of Chinese musical instrument elements are organized in a symphonic way, and it is in line with the mood and plot of the short film. (The last song is an animated short film of Servant らの手にはHE もないけど, the lamb and its mother)
The tonal handling of short clips is also good, such as
This is a short film praising mother's love. The mother takes care of her son in every possible way, and it is difficult to accept the departure when she grows up. At first glance, it feels like saying that the mother spoils her son too much, but after watching it many times, it feels more like saying: let go, but the relationship between mother and son will not change. Will still Chenghuan kneel, eat a barbecued pork bun.
