Evaluate "The Second Life": Why do young audiences prefer this documentary

Two years ago, the documentary "The first time of life" allowed people to experience the small luck and little sorrow from "birth" to "farewell" twelve key nodes; two years later, the second part of "trilogy of life" "The Second Life" is as scheduled, and it takes the eight episodes of "circle, lack, natal, rejection, right, wrong, breaking, and standing" to bring the audience a richer and profound life thinking.

This documentary jointly produced by CCTV, SMG, and Bilibili was launched simultaneously on multiple platforms, causing young netizens to swipe frequently. As of the end, the total clicks of station B had exceeded 32 million times, and the Douban score was as high as 9.1.

At the "Second Life" expert seminar, authoritative experts generally believe that the film "has important breakthroughs in terms of subject matter, ideas, and architecture. This theme, in the silent contrast, comparison and collision, gives the audience a rich space for speculation, and its deep spiritual core is the key to impress the audience. " This also makes everyone look forward to the last "Last Life" of the "Life Trilogy".

Recently, the "People's Daily" published a "Second Life" comment to analyze the successful password of this documentary, and believes that the film is completely in line with the more open vision, richer experience, higher aesthetic level and appreciation ability of the young people today. Like this, "good themes, created with heart and emotions, will definitely be caught sharply by them and are welcomed by them."

This summer, the humanistic documentary "The Second Life" produced by CCTV and Shanghai Radio and Television Station has no stars joined, no luxury production, and it looks flat, but has played more than 600 million times on the entire network. When he was on the hot search, he also ranked first in the same period of the provincial satellite TV program during the broadcast of Oriental Satellite TV during the broadcast.

Why do the audience love so much? What is the password of "Second Life"?

The first is the hard quality of the work, and the second is because of the artistic preferences of the documentary formation of the young audience.

What is the second time in life? It is "frustration and new life." The "deep water area" that dares to enter life presents the confusion and reflection of ordinary people when facing a major turning point in life, and the courage and tenacity of fearlessness.

The director team once deeply cultivated in -depth news reports to grasp the keen and moderate grasp of social hotspots. The work has a sense of problem consciousness and social responsibility, fully reveals the depth and breadth of the times, and at the same time strives to build consensus with warmth, and the humanistic care is always implemented.

"Deep water" is naturally not good. The main creative team was willing to set off the "stupid kung fu", followed up the average of one and a half years of each shooting object, and recorded the material of more than 10,000 hours before condensing for 8 hours.

Through multi -perspective, the protagonist, monologue, and view of views, the audience felt that the original protagonist, like us, was working hard to run towards the ideal life.

This kind of empathy is particularly precious at the moment. It stimulates the goodwill between strangers, warm others, and cure themselves, allowing the audience to "suffer" to "respect your choice".

In recent years, documentary creations have flourished and well -received. Where does its artistic charm come from?

Reality is the most shocking power. People often say that "life is more exciting than novels", which shows real moving. However, the documentary is not just a "porter" of real life. What kind of truth to choose to record, whether it maintains the awe of the world's world and respect for the subject during the recording process, all transmitting the creator's understanding and thinking. This is a more valuable part of a documentary.

Familiar things are naturally close and easy to empathize. Stories that are unfamiliar can arouse curiosity and curiosity. This is exactly the field of documentary. The presentation of humanities documentaries to daily life, the introduction of popular science documentaries in new fields is typical. The leaders can also "integrate and deploy" the two, so that they are familiar and familiar with new knowledge.

However, compared to science documentary, it is rare to make a bright humanistic documentary. This type of topic is really not easy to operate.

Social life is so rich and diverse. It is inevitable that it is inevitable that it is inevitable that it is not moving enough. Focusing on the special cases may be trivial, it is difficult to reflect the universal appearance of life. To dig out valuable themes, it is necessary to observe, profound reflection, clear insights, and superb lens language.

It is no wonder that some humanities documentary still exists and the same problems, such as one -sided pursuit of "primary ecology", ignoring the artistic nature; In the following, "The Second Life" is "sought after". It is not difficult to understand.

Today, young people have a broader vision, richer experience, higher aesthetic level and appreciation ability. Good subject matter, creation of heart and meritoriousness, will definitely be caught sharply and welcomed by them.
