Sha Xiaotong re-directs the 60th anniversary of the National Day fireworks show light feast

Tiananmen night lights

As the chief designer of the lighting at the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics and Paralympics, Sha Xiaotong led his team to present a myth of light and shadow perfectly for the Olympics. A few seemingly lifeless lamps, through his deployment, can create a dreamland. The 21-group lamp and 63 projectors have created a new world record in the digital image splicing technology, which has made Sha Xiao an outstanding designer in the field of world lighting. Seniors in the lighting design industry commented that Sha Xiaolan is not only a name, but also has become a brand of Chinese lighting design.

Sha Xiaotong will also serve as the lighting design for the 60th anniversary of the National Day military parade and celebrations, and tribute to the 60th anniversary of the motherland.

This year's National Day, the celebration will be divided into indoor and outdoor parts. The fireworks show of Tiananmen Square directed by Zhang Yimou and the large-scale dance epic "Revival Road" directed by Zhang Jigang were created by the Olympic team. Sha Xiaotong continued to serve as chief lighting designer. Sha Xiaolan revealed that it has been prepared for three or four months, and the desk work has been completed. The equipment will be installed at the end of July to coordinate the relationship between various departments.

Since the National Day fireworks show was held in Tiananmen Square, the venue put forward new requirements for lighting design. Sha Xiaolan said: Tiananmen Square is as big as a few bird's nests. The general lighting is far from perfect. We have to do the ultimate. But to reflect the theme of the fireworks show and the folks, don't have too many delicate lights. According to the current design, the most striking aspect of the lighting is that there will be 400 searchlights in use, arranged in the sky and on the ground from the Great Hall of the People to the historical museum. In addition, thousands of other lighting fixtures are installed in Tiananmen Square, and the equipment is equipped with rainproof function. The outdoor design takes into account the large size, and the lighting design of the indoor large-scale dance epic "Revival Road" requires detailed performance. In order to express the historical category, it will match the characteristic lighting performance in different historical stages.






Lighting designer Sha Xiaotong's freehand life

Sha Xiaoying lighting works

On the evening of August 8, 2008, when Chinese athlete Li Ning vacated and rushed to the main torch of the Beijing Olympic Games in a slowly unfolding picture, a group of images in the picture behind him complemented the running figure: the children’s smiles and the Olympics. The images of the visually striking scrolls of the people of the Holy Fire made the scene quiet and screamed and cheered.

As the chief designer of the lighting at the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics and Paralympics, Sha Xiaotong led his team to present a myth of light and shadow perfectly for the Olympics. A few seemingly lifeless lamps, through his deployment, can create a dreamland. The 21-group lamp and 63 projectors have created a new world record in the digital image splicing technology, which has made Sha Xiao an outstanding designer in the field of world lighting. Seniors in the lighting design industry commented that Sha Xiaolan is not only a name, but also has become a brand of Chinese lighting design.

Coincidentally, embark on the road of lighting design

Sha Xiaolan was born in Nanjing and was very interested in painting since childhood. Since junior high school, he began to study art. Until he graduated from high school, his wish was to go to the Nanjing Academy of Art to study art. However, Sha Xiaolan has been in the list for two years.

In disappointment, he began to study while working. During this time, he worked as a worker in the wool mill and also studied medicine for a year. But he soon discovered that his interest was not here, he still has a soft spot for painting. The days of work and tutoring are boring, but he will have fun. Going to work during the day, studying painting at night, and watching scenery and painting scenery at the Zhongshan Mausoleum in Nanjing on weekends. As long as I have a picture in my life, I feel very comfortable. Sha Xiaotong recalled the past scene.

If it is not a word from others, Sha Xiaotong may still be a worker to this day, but the Chinese lighting design community has lost a lot of highlights. When I lost confidence in the university, my friend suggested that he painted well and had good science, which is very suitable for learning lighting design. I don’t know what the lighting profession is all about, just to get to college, he signed up. After taking the sketches, colors, and the knowledge of electricians and physics, Sha Xiaotong finally got the exam and entered the lighting design department of the stage art department of Shanghai Theatre Academy.

At the time, the lighting design was not noticed in China, and the position of the lighting engineer was no different from that of ordinary technicians. But he has already determined that he is destined to deal with the light in his life, not only because learning lighting design can give full play to his own specialties, but also because the beauty of light and shadow created by the light has made his artistic dreams. In this way, Sha Xiaolan became attached to the light and began his career in light and shadow art.

Thick and thin hair, becoming a hot figure in domestic lighting design

In May 1989, after graduation from the drama, Sha Xiaotong was assigned to the General Political Song and Dance Troupe. At that time, the General Political Song and Dance Troupe gathered together, providing a lot of opportunities for stage activities. As the first lighting engineer from the class, the lighting design of the large-scale event of the 8th party was falling on his head. He got A rare opportunity to exercise.

After the transfer to the Eastern Song and Dance Troupe, a broader platform was presented in front of him, and opportunities came one after another. Sha Xiaotong began to work as a lighting designer for large-scale dramas, evening parties and plaza activities. Since 1995, its capabilities have gradually gained industry recognition. By 1997, when he was responsible for the lighting work to celebrate the return of Hong Kong, he has become a hot figure in the domestic lighting design community.

Sha Xiaotong humbly owes his success to the advent of luck and opportunity, but if there is no hard work and patience, luck will not be repeated.

Sha Xiaotong, who just entered the line, often hears this: You can't come! The modest attitude and extraordinary skills are the magic weapon for him to win respect and recognition. Sha Xiaotong said: You can't always think of yourself as a designer. You should think of yourself as an ordinary lighting worker, starting with the most basic work. If you want to be a leader in lighting design, you must first learn to be a human being. And this person is often the most important quality in the industry. Originally in the General Political Song and Dance Troupe, he had a lamp, and a person climbed the stairs with a lamp; he did the light, and stood on the ladder for a few hours. The impression left to people is very good, and they form a good cooperative relationship with everyone. Everyone is willing to help, good ideas can be realized. This modest and simple attitude makes the team led by Sha Xiaotong always overcome one challenge after another.

I have done so many stage plays, square evenings, song and dance evenings, and the essence of his inner art is still drama. He believes that the drama is more durable and more flavorful, and can repeatedly appreciate the artistic effects brought by the lights. Sha Xiaotong was very satisfied with the dance drama "Wild Zebra" and "Dream Dunhuang". The light hits the actor's face, you can see every expression of the actor, the expression of emotions is vivid, the visual impact is stronger, the lighting feels strong, and the scene effect is particularly good. Every time he mentions his own triumph, Sha Xiaotong is sincerely happy and satisfied.

Sha Xiaolan’s personality is practical and diligent. In the 10 years of his struggle in Beijing, he never thought about turning around. All the parks in Beijing have not been visited, and there has not been a continuous rest day. This kind of hard work and diligence exchanged him for exquisite lighting design skills and universal recognition in the circle. Sha Xiaolan became an important figure in promoting the creation of lighting in Chinese stage performance: when he did not use computer lights in China, he I took the lead in the stage play to use the back light to make a big backlight, so that the light behind the stage is much stronger than the light in front of the stage, and I received a very good stage effect, which drove the trend of using the backlight effect on the domestic stage. The rise of computer lights, Sha Xiaotong took the lead in using computer lights, which led to another wave of domestic stage lighting.

In 2004, Sha Xiaolan went abroad to serve as the lighting design for the Singapore National Day party, after the country's National Day party was designed by Europeans and Americans. As a result, Sha Xiaolan began to show off in the international arena.

For the Olympics, walking between light and shadow

Being the chief designer of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics and Paralympics is one of the important milestones in Sha Xiaotong's life. Now recalling, he still has a lingering fear. I just hesitated when I got this news. Such a big occasion is usually carried out in the form of a team of Chinese and foreign experts. Now I am the chief lighting designer. This important task falls to me. On the head, I really feel a lot of pressure. But it turns out that choosing Sha Xiaogang is very correct. The display of the Olympic stage lighting has received an unparalleled international assessment of Chinese lighting creation.

The appreciation habits of the East and the West are different. The Orientals prefer strong and impactful colors, while the Westerners prefer elegant black and white tones. The West is usually based on television broadcasts and is not measured by live standards. Sha Tin’s psychological pressure is very high, not only to take into account the appreciation habits of the East and West viewers, but also to surpass the opening ceremony of the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. The lighting of the opening ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games is very good, the color is very simple, and the artistic sense is very strong. Beyond it, it is necessary to increase the technological content.

The lights of the opening ceremony were adjusted almost in two or three days. As long as the program moved, the lights would be adjusted. From May to early August last year, all the lighting staff were all night. It was the sincere cooperation between Sha Xiaolan and his team that designed and adjusted again and again to bring the audience a fantastic opening ceremony, which made the world marvel.

People have seen that the paintings of "Paintings" use gray, white and black tones, like a fresh and elegant ink painting; a section of "The Best of the Family" and "Live Printing", the light has rendered a faint color and enhanced the color of the clothing. The effect and the three-dimensional sense of the font; "Drama" exaggerated the color of Chinese opera costumes, the color of the stage picture became stronger; the saturation of the color of "Silk Road" and "Ritual Music" was strengthened; "Starlight" and "Nature" To "Dream", the lighting design of the three passages uses modern decorative painting and computer painting techniques to strengthen the atmosphere of the performance, and the rhythm of the lighting art lighting is progressively sublimated and gradually sublimated, with the overall atmosphere of the stage entering a climax.

In order to make a fuss about the bird's nest 14 meters high and 500 meters long, Sha Xiaotong met the biggest test in his 20-year career. Because even the most advanced high-power projectors, the effect of projecting on the side of the bowl can not reach the most basic broadcast requirements. At the same time, the glare used to illuminate the actor in the venue can also greatly reduce the brightness of the projection.

Sha Xiaotong and his team proposed the idea of ​​splicing the images of 21 groups and 63 projectors. This method has not been tried yet, and it is currently impossible to use one computer to drive so many projectors at the same time. Play material. The American supplier heard this idea and even called you crazy. Despite the incredible feelings, the supplier sent experts to help Sha Xiaotong work.

Sha Xiaotong did not care about the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games and the opening and closing ceremonies of the Paralympic Games. He only slept for four or five hours a day, sometimes even staying up all night. He joked that at that time, there would be no time difference for going abroad.

Sha Xiaotong often said: An excellent lighting designer should like lighting, have aura and organizational skills, as well as music, art and other aspects of comprehensive quality, but also constantly strengthen their self-cultivation, improve their ability to grasp high technology. But there is one thing he didn't mention, that is the spirit he has been insisting on.

Recently, in addition to the lighting design of the Bird's Nest opera "Turandot", Sha Xiaotong is busy with the lighting design of the Great Hall of the People's Renaissance Road and the Tiananmen Fireworks Gala held to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the founding of New China. This is a major event for the people of the whole country. It is more tiring than the chief designer of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The pressure can be imagined, but Sha Xiaolan admits that he will still walk firmly between the light and shadow and continue his art with lighting. The edge.
