The Secret of the Ocean-Superb Imagination (1)

"Imagination is more important than knowledge, because knowledge is limited, and imagination summarizes everything in the world." -Einstein

This is a picture book without words, but a picture book without words is more imaginative than a picture book with words, because it doesn't tell you how to tell this story! Want to steal a lazy photo, no. It is precisely because there is no text that everyone can pay attention to the picture.

This picture book tells the story of different time and space between the real world and the surreal world under the sea. There are not many ambushes in this book, and the design of the picture is not difficult to understand. Its Excellence lies in its originality. The underwater world it depicts is amazing, which makes people sigh how the creator came up with and drew it. ! Every underwater picture in it can write a novel!

When I first saw the cover of this picture book, I felt very confused. The little fish next to me got it. What is the red background? The center of the picture looks like a lens. There are two fish and a box in the lens?

Under normal circumstances, when you can't understand the cover, you can open the back cover and have a look. There will be unexpected surprises. This book was particularly shocking after it was unfolded. It turned out to be a fish! The red one looks like a fish head with chopped pepper. The fish next to it is so small. Why is this fish so big? What's in its eyes?

After reading the book and then looking at the cover, you will suddenly understand that what is displayed here is the most shocking inside page, and the camera and fish next to it are reflected in the fish's eyes. The cover reflects the strongest prop of this book-the camera, and this eye is also a pun. On the one hand, it is the fish's eyes, on the other hand, it refers to the lens.

Generally speaking, the ring lining can point out the central idea. What is the ring lining of this book? Is it rough kraft paper? Obviously not, it's the beach! The beach is full of books, followed by the little boy who is "looking for treasure" on the beach. Exquisite design, coherent and reasonable. Is this a story on the beach?

The little boy "treasure hunt" alone away from the busy crowd. What treasure did he find in the bucket?

These three seagulls, bit part, are well used, adding interest and enriching the picture. All three seagulls looked at the little boy as if waiting for a mysterious event.

distant view

Here, the vast sea and beach are represented with a large vision, and the background of the story is explained. Because the little boy is far away from the crowd, seagulls will make their homes on the beach; It is also because I am far away from the crowd that I will encounter unclaimed shots, paving the way for the development of the story.

Many small objects on this page were washed to the beach by the sea: copper coins and compasses. Are these three pieces of wood familiar? There are three pieces of wood in the little boy's bucket! So what is shown here can be understood as what the little boy found on the beach, and the whole logic is relatively smooth.

There are so many strange "treasures" in the sea, such as compasses, copper coins, compasses and small screws. There is a story behind every "treasure". What happened between them and the sea? There is a small piece of kraft paper in the lower left corner. Kraft paper is an ancient "paper". This paper says "list, gold, geoige" and so on. There are too many names. What list is this? Just think, why is this list sinking into the sea? This may be a sad story. There is an octopus's foot exposed on the left. Remember this, you will have to take the exam in the future.

There is also an out-of-place pig here, which seems to imply the story of the creator's other picture book "Three Little Pigs". Or he has no logic, just to add interest to the book. Sometimes there is no logical design, but it will cause more curiosity and reverie. Just like Mona Lisa's smile, there are so many people to explore this smiling The Secret Behind, which leads to various versions, and it is also a kind of "endless painting and endless meaning".

On the left, a piece of kraft paper is used to show the book information, which is the same material as the list in the lower left corner and echoes each other. Kraft paper is used harmoniously here, and the classical nostalgia of kraft paper fits well with these small objects.

The title design on the wood, with crayon strokes, looks reasonable and harmonious.

A big hermit crab occupies the whole picture. This hermit crab is very meticulous, but why is there an eye behind it? Who is this? There is still reflection on the glasses. Why?

On the left is a line octopus, another octopus!

It turns out that the little boy is looking at hermit crabs with a magnifying glass! The reflection on the previous page turned out to be the lens of a magnifying glass, and the big eyes in the magnifying glass just correspond to the previous page. The contrast between near and far is very strong.

There are many things on the beach. Three buckets are full, three pieces of wood are clear, and an octopus's foot leaks out of the small box in front. What is the octopus implying?

The family came to the seaside to play, and the things they brought were really complete, with nets, barrels, microscopes and telescopes. ...

Three shovels represent a family of three, two red and one blue. Since ancient times, red and blue have given birth to CP, blue symbolizes dad, and red symbolizes children and mothers. When the mother comes out, you can see that the mother and son are wearing the same color clothes, which is also an echo here.

There is a white bag on the beach, and the label says LBI. I checked and wondered if it was Sony's LBI camera handbag. If so, it means that they have a digital camera at home, which is also paving the way for the little boy to use the camera he found.

There is a name on the microscope bag, but I can't find out what it means.

I was a little touched to see the family go to the seaside. Mom and dad will read books on the beach! When a family goes to the beach, they bring binoculars, microscopes and nets ... this is a rare scene on the beach in China. Mom and dad are reading under the umbrella, "I" is studying small animals, and there is a sand castle on the right. Everyone has his own fun.

The whole scene

From the close-up of the previous page to the panoramic view here, the lens is reduced, and at the same time, like the previous page, it shows the state of the family at a very low lens angle, which can well accept the lens angle of the previous page.

The little boy was a little tired after observing for a while, and then he looked at the beach again, trying to pick up something else. This time he met a little crab.

The screen design in this book is similar to the design of a comic box, showing the process of characters' movements. In the first small picture, we can see that the number of tourists in the distance has decreased, and some people are walking from the seaside to the beach (suggesting that the waves are coming). The first frame depicts a seagull, which is not repeated with the title page, but echoes the previous one. The second small picture shows a little boy looking for a panoramic view of small animals. The third picture is an ultra-low angle observation of crabs, which echoes the previous observation of hermit crabs. The three frames are also distant views, panoramic views and close-ups, which are similar to the first three pages.

Just as the little boy and the little crab were playing spellbound, suddenly a huge wave came and knocked him over. No wonder people in the distance walked to the seaside. So the waves are coming. It is reasonable that the little boy was so absorbed in watching crabs that he didn't notice the waves coming. This is the first wave, remember this wave, and we will take the test later.

After the waves receded, the little boy had a circle of kelp on his feet and the bucket was washed aside. Looking to the right along the little boy's line of sight, a mysterious treasure box appeared, and the little crab's eyes looked at the mysterious treasure box. What is this treasure box? The little boy's eyes guided the page turning.

When the waves receded, the people behind began to walk to the seaside again.

After the frame is finished, it is a big spread, and the design is easy.

This is an underwater camera! The little boy picked up the camera and looked around. Who lost it? Is anyone looking for it?

I finally saw the octopus here. The octopus, which has been foreshadowing everywhere, turned out to be here. Is the camera like an octopus, implying something? What story will it be?

The above pictures introduce Kodak's Brownie camera and Kodak's 120 film. Kodak was introduced because the appearance of this camera and the color matching of the film behind it can be clearly seen that it is very similar to Kodak; The reason why Kodak is used is also the creator's tribute to domestic brands.

Kodak's camera is very simple to operate, similar to a fool camera. As can be seen from the poster above, the publicity of this camera can be used by even children. This is also the basis, why the little boy is so skilled after picking up the camera. The name written on the camera is not Kodak, because it won't, but Melville, which is also a tribute. Melville is a famous American novelist, whose masterpiece is Moby Dick. Other details are as follows (picture information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia).

This kind of camera has been produced for a long time. Not only that, many barnacles attached to the camera can guess that the camera has been in the sea for a long time.

The little boy found that no one claimed the camera, ran happily to his parents, asked the beach staff with his parents, and turned on the camera after confirming that no one claimed it. Here you can see the same color clothes worn by mother and son.

The four pictures that Mom and Dad appeared in turn went from near to far, and finally Mom and Dad faded out of the picture. Finally, mom and dad looked at each other from a distance with love in their eyes.

There is really a roll of film in it, which is the model of 120, and it has been available since the second generation of Brownies came out 120!

The little man ran to the photo studio with a camera and film to develop the photos. He took a particularly big step and could feel the boy's anxiety from the steps. The little boy went to a photo studio called Bob. At the door of this shop, it says, express printing in one hour. On the blackboard, it says 1, and it says 1 hour for developing photos. Remember Bob.

The name of the shop says Bob. Why Bob? I wonder if it's the people below. Famous American cartoonist and screenwriter?

The girl in the photo studio is on the phone, and the lazy attitude of the girl working while talking on the phone shows that this store has no business.

The three frames in the middle are symmetrical around the middle. On the left, the boy took out the film, and on the right, he put in the newly bought film. Buying film also paves the way for taking pictures later. The clock on the wall shows that it took three minutes to make a movie …

If the second page is Sony's camera bag, it also implies that the emergence of digital cameras has a strong impact on the film industry, and ordinary families do not need film cameras. It is normal to be left out in front of the door, because there are few people and it is more reasonable for employees to be lazy.

The following six pictures are used to show the boy's anxious mood, but he waited for a whole hour.

After getting the photo, the little boy began to run back, and then the camera moved forward step by step until he reached the boy's surprised eyes.

These two pages are close-ups of a small picture and a big picture. There are large and small picture typesetting, which brings readers into the logic of the book. At the same time, look right and lead to the next page.

Frame design

This paper introduces the design of pictures in cartoons. Frame is mainly divided into main frame and sub-frame.

Nominative case: the larger and more prominent case is the nominative case; Subjective cases are divided into core plot cases and emotional cases.

Secondary grid: pause grid and transition grid. The function of secondary grid is often to create rhythm between grids, with less dialogue and small grid. ?

Here, the boy's big eyes show his main emotions. The largest camera on the previous page is showing the core story. And these little squares are expressing suspense and transition.
