Jia Zhangke Film Study Of Symbols

As a representative of one of the sixth generation director, Jia Zhangke film not only has the same on behalf of the common characteristics of film, but also has a distinctive personal style. Virtue of his own unique movie experience of life, knowledge, cultivation and understanding of film, as a whole shows a real tendency. Moreover, from his movies, we can see that he has an obsession of art concept: that is, a film with a unique perspective to construct the survival status of the Chinese nation, with his movie camera to record live in the small town of grassroots Living Situation, These vulnerable groups demonstrated the process of modernization in China have shown changes in the physical world and spiritual world. Consummate artistry, dedication of art, unique symbols embody the film of his films with a distinctive artistic characteristics. The thesis expounded the following four perspectives:First of all, Jia Zhangke films on the grassroots level because of the perspective of this special group, and take this show China in political, economic and cultural evolution in many aspects, so the symbol with its characteristics. Jia Zhangke films works from the first beginning to explore how to use national symbols unique description of China to the world, especially in small towns in the living condition of the special groups fascinated him in his joys and sorrows of this group obtained under the lens a special symbolic significance, with obvious signs characteristic roots. As the first Chinese film is symbolic of traditional theater to create movies, such as "Mount Dingjun" This kind of movie.After several generations of filmmakers to explore and efforts, Chinese film bearing the symbol also will change the film. I gradually began to develop into diverse symbols to show the reality of China. And Jia Zhangke film captures small town roots symbol as their own series of films the theme of a consistent extension of this proposition. He not only learn the art of Western film techniques of realism, especially the Italian neo-realism films of the essence, but also inherited the Chinese film in the tradition of realism. So, Jia Zhangke has his own movie show in the field, and persistent efforts.Secondly, Jia Zhangke film through a special system of signs constructed heterogeneous world of film. He used color film director is different from other symbols, sound symbol, music symbols, background symbols, language symbols represent China in the reform process appears to many social problems, especially the fate of the grassroots evolution. Quiet film narration with film director on the grass roots penetrate deep love, almost a real movie scene rarer full display of the status of the grassroots. Jia Zhangke's film narrative is more quiet than other film directors and unassuming, not directly given by the film lens solution, Makes simple judgments of moral reason, but through a distinctive documentary style to expand its exhibition space representation has been closely linked with people's lives, the real world. Therefore, Jia Zhangke's film full and fulfilling, not trick, focus on the historical changes in the details, the cold reality to keep a warm tone, a kind of respect for humanity and care.Again, Jia Zhangke film focus on the records and use of cultural symbols. Because of the special film Jia Zhangke show the world the reality of art maintains a loyal attitude of the small town world of his film background, so the color of his movies, sounds, music, language, setting many common elements into specific cultural symbols in the world. Small towns are a key link in rural areas and link major cities, between cities and countryside and between small towns and thus carries a lot of change in China specific information. On the one hand, compared to small towns and rural areas with cultural, economic, political, many advantages; the other hand, Can not be compared with the highly developed cities, its special position has also created a unique cultural landscape. Jia Zhangke took advantage of the unique advantages of small towns, will view their own movies to stay in this particular area, construction of small towns in the world film culture symbols.Finally, Jia Zhangke film development forecast of China sign the film's international acceptance. Jia Zhangke film has its own development path and direction, even though he basically stick to the fate of grass-roots groups show, however, his film performance in terms of film technique, or from the film structure are maturing and mature. Faded original tender, the diversity of artistic expression to the film, the film industry at home and abroad gradually stopped heel, won universal acclaim, won many awards in the world film industry. Of course, we can see, Jia Zhangke film does not rest on its laurels, while insufficient to improve and develop their own advantages, Open up more new movie art world.
