week 6 ✿








I’m personally a big fan of Hayao Miyazaki and his animation; also I have seen many of his works, such like “The Spirited Away”(千と千寻の神隠し), “Howl's Moving Castle”(ハウルの动く城) ,and the “Castle in the Sky”(天空の城ラピュタ)and etc. For the Princess Mononoke, it is his earliest works and it belongs to the theme of “Save”.

In Cavallaro’s article; He analyzes the film from a fully angle and ranged vision of content, no matter from spirit and technique. In the contents, he believes that the film’s influence, prestige and popularity in its hometown, it’s a important factor of a successes for a film. This is the charm of the Japanese `s legend, mythology and folklore, and that is why In Japan, more and more people come into the ranks of the traditional tales collection. He also believes that destiny in the film means fight, release and freedom. Furthermore, the characters refreshment in the film is successful for they have embodied the kinds of spirit of human; On the one hand, the author shows the irony to the human, and his hopes to the children.

Finally, relying on the high- tech cooperated with the Microsoft, Studio Ghibli’s CGI Department and the film combines 3D Rendering, morphing, particles, digital composition, texture mapping, and the digital painting. All these techniques are used for a splendid display for the audiences in vision. Above all, it acknowledged the success of the film on this basis.
