Sha Xiaotong: The opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games reflects love (Figure)

It seems to be a few tubes of dry paint, which can be transformed into a beautiful picture by the hands of the painter; likewise, a few lifeless lighting instruments can create a dreamland under the control of the lighting engineer. Light is the life of space. Sha Xiaotong, the chief lighting designer, took the artistic creed and led the team to create the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games until the opening and closing of the Paralympic Games. Even the distant audience will be sucked into the TV. The bird's nest is in the middle of it. However, the creation of beauty always needs to overcome the shackles of physical equipment, as well as the boring test of hundreds of angles, colors, and light and darkness, Sha Xiaotong said.
Five kinds of blue to create fresh lake water
The total color of the opening ceremony of the Paralympic Games is blue. Whether the sky is turned into a starry sky or the white birds flying on the ground, you need a tranquil blue like the lake to match. Many viewers don't think too much, thinking that this is a normal blue light, but in the midst of it, it seems that the lake is really swaying.
This lake is actually not simple. If there is only one level, the scene will be flat and dull; therefore, we generally have at least dark blue, medium blue, light blue, cool blue and green and warm yellow yellow. These five blue Color interlacing can be achieved. Sha Xiaoxiao smiled and uncovered the secret behind this visual effect, and gave an example of the singing atmosphere of the theme song "Let Me Have You".
In the center of the main stage white jade plate, the image casts a light blue water ripple; the disk body sprays a faint mist of water, so that the image is formed on the water mist and the ground to form a virtual and real effect, creating a dreamlike feeling; white jade plate Surrounded by a dark blue base, the surface is covered with a layer of light blue light. On the one hand, the lake is three-dimensional, while the dancer's face is brightened, without drowning in the depths; the lead singer on the white jade plate also needs With the white chasing light, the blue that has been covered by the upper body is washed away, making it a shining point in the field of view. Sha Xiaotong said that when the image of the water ripples in the center rippled, pushing the three or four levels of light and shadow intertwined, coupled with the flying images on the far side of the bowl, the whole lake would live.
This seamless picture requires all 2600 computer lights in the nest to be completed at the same time. Sha Xiaolan introduced that they distributed the lights in the auditorium of the Bird's Nest and the top of the seven tracks, covering all corners of the venue. In order to let the hand of the brush come, the seven tracks are divided into five or six angles of front, back, left, right, and top to bottom. Sha Xiaotong, who is striving for excellence, said that he would not see any light deviating from the angle, otherwise it would destroy the overall beauty.
A wonderful pen engraving flower
In the summer of the "Four Seasons", the props of the lotus flower, the surface needs a layer of light pink, it will appear more vivid, and the branches under the lotus flower need to be sketched with light yellow light. Light yellow is brighter than pink, which makes the object look more solid and even has a sculptural feel. Sha Xiaotong said that he often reminded himself not to ignore these small details, and it is often a good pen to make flowers.
In a dark blue light, the face of an actor is often blurred, and even a purple color like pig liver appears. In order to restore the actor's skin tone to normal, it is often necessary to wash away the original color with lighter light. A single actor is relatively well handled, but this opening ceremony has a large number of group performances. Later, we found a way to find a suitable angle from the low side to engrave the group image of the character. In order to find this so-called appropriate angle, Sha Xiaolan and his team experimented dozens of times.
In the theme song "Let Me Have You", the male and female singers from the beginning of the deep affection, to the climax part of the joint hand-in-hand, the surrounding colors are also changing with the plot. At the beginning, Bai Yutai was surrounded by the outermost circle of deep blue, and at the moment when the music pushed to the apex, it became a shy rose red, forming a bright aura. This change will undoubtedly promote the direction of inner feelings, and must conform to the rhythm of music. The time of change must be second to none. Sha Xiaolan said that it is not red, too irritating; not yellow, too pale; it is rose red, in order to express the care and love of the Paralympic Games.
