Spirit : Stallion of the Cimarron Review_DoubleS Jin Lin 2002's "Pony Spirit" was produced and distributed by Dreamworks and universal studio, bringing together producer Jeffrey Katzenberg, director Kelly Ashberry, screenwriter An animated western adventure film created by John Fusco. In terms of plot, the whole film can be summed up in one sentence - describing the history of the American West through the eyes of a horse. One of the eye-catching elements is the selection of horses as the medium to tell the history of the frontiers, which not only contains the western spirit of America's pursuit of freedom and would rather die than surrender, but also the advocacy of the ideal of harmonious coexistence between humans and animals. From the perspective of production methods, this is a rare traditional digital animation that combines 2D and 3D. Producer Keisenberg believes that computers cannot replace the hand-drawn features of traditional animations, and computers are not traditional rivals. Therefore, a product of the combination of the two is born. When you savor the film carefully, you will not feel the abruptness of the two methods at all, for example, Spirit and the horses run together (3D), while Spirit runs from the horses to the hillside (2D), When the virtual camera zooms out, he becomes 3D again. The conversion is vivid. As for the characters, in order to avoid comedy, the director set that the horses in the play can't speak. He is not as humorous and funny as "Zootopia", but he is more real and unpretentious. You will also experience the body language in the charm of animation. Finally, I talked about my favorite aspects of the soundtrack and songs. Due to the lack of dialogue and narration in the story, music has become a sword to express the inner emotions of the characters in the story. The production team invited the songwriter Brian Adams and the soundtrack master Hans. Zimmer. "We're basically creating a musical, expressing the emotions of a horse," Bly said. "I wrote it according to the story, and the lyrics had to be clear, to bring the Spirit to life through the song." This is the charm of music, I firmly believe that music and art are inseparable. This is also my ambition. However, the reality is that it can be said to be the only shortcoming of the film. His fame has always been inferior to the entertainment and popular "Zootopia" and "Madagascar". These two works are funny and humorous, close to the audience's life, and belong to the audience's understanding level. ; Compared with "Spirit", if you have not known the history of the western frontier of the United States before, it is not meaningful to understand this film. Just like when you introduce Liang Zhu to foreign audiences, you have to remark Romeo and Juliet, and you have to give them a little film. Therefore, the audience for this film is limited to a very small audience, and it is generally not well-known in the Asian market, because the audience does not understand or is not popular enough, and the company's post-film industry chain and publicity channels are not in place. If it were me, I would have to promote the history of the Western Frontiers before the film started. We must know that if there is a good work, the business mind must be turned upside down, and a good work must not be buried because of the audience's incomprehension. If you want to sell, you can't leave business and art alone. Therefore, you must know that art is something higher than life. The real art is incomprehensible to normal Muggles. It depends on what you want. If you want economic value, you must understand the market demand and have the art of a businessman's mind. maker. If you are an art seeker, don’t worry about anything, it’s ok, just follow your heart and don’t look back.”
