Project Description
Design a video that would be projected on a wall of a coutryard. The project should show the style of the film and filmmaker's name. The video will play without sound and on loop during the festival.
Research - Chen Kaige
Chen’s theme, which has to do with the power of belief, is as rooted in Chen’s experience of the Cultural Revolution as its imagery is in Chinese history.
His films have also been characterized by a strong political commitment which has led to objections from censors and has limited their domestic audience to students and intellectuals.
His first film, Yellow Earth, announced the arrival of a director who was capable of turning a bromide like “Chairman Mao wants to give all poor people a chance to eat rice without chafe” into a provocative lyric, resonating against the jaundiced hills.

CONCEPT - The Wave from the Movie
According to Chen’s film, there are a lot of traditional culture element from his theme. To express this feeling with abstract light, the color would be a main character in this project. As a result, orange, yellow and red will be my primary color palette. My intention is to build up a wave from the film and draw viewers to Chen’s movie.
