The Visual Feast of Chinese Comics - The Color Application of Nezha 2

The box office of Nezha 2 has exceeded 12 billion yuan, and it is about to surpass "Inside Out 2" to top the global animated film box office. The importance of color matching is self-evident in the popularity of an animated film. The dumpling directing team abandoned the high saturation colors commonly used in Western animation and instead delved into the connotations of traditional Chinese colors, perfectly integrating traditional color patterns with character personalities, emotions, and narrative in the film.

Red Flame: The iconic color of Nezha, taken from cinnabar, symbolizing resistance and passion. This warm color tone endows the characters with a spirit of courage and rebellion, like an eternal flame, reflecting Nezha's fiery soul that resists fate.

Black and white blending: The colors of chaotic nebulae replicate the artistic conception of "ink divided into five colors" in Song Dynasty ink paintings, creating a restrained and profound atmosphere.

White Blue: The main color tone of the Jade Void Palace is like a thin mist enveloping the world, creating a sense of alienation like a fairyland. These colors weave together a cold and aloof painting, implying the inhumanity and indifference within the Jade Void Palace. White blue not only adds an extraordinary appearance to the space, but also deepens the hypocritical and reserved image of the Jade Void Palace, making it a symbol of indifferent rules.

Blue: Spread out among the forest waterfalls where Shen Zhengdao led his disciples to practice, like a serene and distant ink painting. The blue here symbolizes tolerance and hope, showcasing the rhythm of freedom and life.

Ochre color: The main color tone of the soil fat slope in the Tujue tribe, interweaving yellow soil and gold, presenting a heavy and primitive natural atmosphere. The stability of the ochre color and the texture of the soil shape the true face of this land, and also make the groundhog tribe a symbol of the "other" in a world full of inequality and exploitation.

Emerald color: The main color tone in the forest scene of the film, vibrant and lively like a splashed ink landscape painting. Green symbolizes the vitality of free growth and endless vitality.

Blue: In the film, it covers the Chentang Pass on the eve of the war and the ruins of the Dragon Palace ruins with a profound posture. The blue here is close to black, as if the night sky is sinking down, devouring the last trace of warmth between heaven and earth. Blue has become a symbol of death and destruction, and also highlights the melody of the story behind the image, making the whole picture full of a sense of destiny.

Deep Purple: The space of Shiji Niangniang is surrounded by deep purple, dark and mysterious. This color tone originally symbolized nobility and authority, but in the deep and mysterious tones, it does not lose any sense of strangeness. The deep purple adds a mysterious atmosphere to the image of Shiji Niangniang, placing her between light and shadow, evoking imagination.

Di Shi Qing and Zhu Sha Hong: The intersection of the two creates a strong visual tension and drama. Emperor Shi Qing is calm and profound, symbolizing the deep blue of the sea and the majesty of the dragon race; Cinnabar red is passionate and unrestrained, symbolizing Nezha's rebelliousness. The interweaving of the two is like a dream, fluctuating and flowing, making the whole world seem to be enveloped by a force that is both dangerous and romantic.

The use of colors in Nezha 2 not only enriches the visual expression of the film, but also deepens the emotional connotation and thematic ideas of the film. Through carefully designed color combinations and symbolic meanings, the film successfully combines traditional colors with modern technology, presenting a visual and emotional feast for the audience. This ultimate pursuit of traditional aesthetics makes every frame a flowing exhibition of Eastern art, not only a visual revolution of Chinese animation, but also a deep dialogue about cultural confidence.
