The selection of this natural light X Huawei nova star short video contest is the most potential 10 groups of works selected from four aspects of picture quality, art design, storytelling and imagination. In the three master classes after the audition, the natural light art overseas tutors guided these students with great potential, Let their final output have the same quality improvement, which is also the most important original intention of the Natural Light X Huawei nova star short video contest: dig out the high-quality "rough jade" that has not been polished, and improve the quality of their works in essence, rather than just selecting the "best".

In the master class, the tutors opened questions for the finalists, so the topic of the first short video contest hidden for so long was: "Young people define young people". The key point of this proposition is to let young people show the society what they look like in their own eyes from a very subjective perspective, starting from a single individual, with a very single entry point, rather than using a broad and vague concept to define themselves, just like a very philosophical topic: "Who am I?". Teacher Lin, the teacher of natural light, said: "I hope that the teams do not play with a young attitude".

We all know the attitude keywords of young people: "hard work", "vigor", "struggle", "overcoming difficulties", "youth", "publicity", etc., but if it is simply a display of young attitude, then the significance of this video contest may be missing, This short video contest is for young people to show their real life inside.

On this point, the natural light instructors gave the team a small suggestion: when writing the script story, there was a conflict. Don't let the protagonist blame the society and others. Let the protagonist "hang on" in adversity, so that the audience will actively think that this is not the problem of the protagonist alone, and the role will be more innocent. Only in this way can the film language be more authentic and credible, And more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

"Don't moan about illness, don't be pretentious" is a very important requirement of this master class, and to grasp this degree, the script is particularly important, which is the significance of the master class.

After the opening of the first master class, each group will then decide the time of the script story. They will take the "emotional keyword" to agree with the teacher on the time of tutorial. The "emotional keyword" will determine the definition of each group for themselves, and then draw the script story from it. After three times of script guidance, the instructors will learn from the difficulty of shooting, the rhythm of the story Storytelling, social significance, artistry, relevance and other aspects of guidance, and finally determine the script to start shooting.

Now, all the team members of the master class have completed the script creation under the guidance, and entered a tense and interesting shooting stage. The jury will hold a meeting at 22:00 (DEADLINE) on November 25 Close the submission channel of final works, and the final works of each group will be publicized on the natural light Tencent platform from November 26 to November 30. The judges will select the top three works of the competition, and simultaneously open the voting channel of the Best Popularity Award on the Internet (the Best Popularity Award on the Internet will not affect the ownership of the top three awards in the final competition).
