When I heard the name of the movie "Luna", I kept thinking about what kind of story it would be. All the imaginations and descriptions of the moon—mysterious, dreamy, romantic, illusory...how to express it in the language of the camera lens. After watching it, I feel that this film really uses its sound, pictures, as well as symbols and meanings to realize people's fantasy about the moon and tell a romantic story about the moon.
In terms of sound, the beginning of the short film is very soothing, romantic, and dreamy music, and it runs through the entire short film, making the emotional tone of the short film very clear and clear. Everyone knows that this is a warm and dreamy story, which is very suitable Story Background - A story that takes place on the moon. The appearance of the characters was elicited by the sound. On the smooth water surface, the sound of the paddle sliding in the water was heard, and the three grandparents and grandchildren on a boat were drawn out. This short film has no character dialogue, which means its focus is on sound and music. In terms of sound, the sound of this short film is very delicate, there are sounds almost everywhere, the sound of water, the sound of stepping on the moon, the crisp sound of sweeping the stars... all add a lot to the film, making the film fresh, The romantic temperament has a lot of power.
In terms of pictures, the shooting angles of this short film are almost all flat, and the camera movement is almost moving the lens, which is convenient for the slow narrative rhythm and the display of the picture. But in terms of composition, when grandfather and grandson coexist, the composition is often vertical thirds, which is very neat in aesthetics, but it is also an intriguing composition. Children are between father and grandfather, and from their actions It can be shown that the father and grandfather's desire to control and control the child, and that the father and grandfather often conflict over the requirements of the child's behavior. Placing the child between two people is convenient to show the conflict and disputes between the two people, and the child's looking around also reflects his lack of ideas and helplessness. When the father took out the ladder and asked the child to climb up, it was a framed composition, framing the child in the middle of the ladder, thinking at the extreme, it was like a prison, and the child had no choice. When the child looks at the father and grandfather, it is always shown with an upward shot in the first half. When the father and grandfather look at the child, they are also looking down. From this angle, it can also reflect the father and grandpa's sense of control over the child at the beginning. The identity is not equal. But when the child was about to stand on the little star, the grandfather and the father turned to look at the child, and the horizontal angle shot, to a certain extent, implying that the child grew up in the hearts of the father and the grandfather, and the three were equal in status.
In terms of symbolism and meaning, the film uses two props to symbolize the growth of the little boy. At the beginning of the short film, the grandfather took out a hat and put it on for the little boy. The little boy put on the hat excitedly. This hat was like a certificate for landing on the moon. The little boy put on the hat, and he also embarked on the road of growth. At the end of the short film, the little boy has his own shovel. Before that, there was a conflict between the grandfather and the father over whose broom should be used for the little boy. The little boy had his own unique props, which reflected his growth once. Props of self that are different from others. If you think about it from this angle, maybe the big star symbolizes a difficulty on the road of growth, and the boy smashing the big star symbolizes a small success for him.
It would be nice if my growth also had unique props, I want an invisibility cloak.
