The greenery of the fields, the tranquility and elegance of the garden, the joy of farming and harvesting, the real feeling of stepping barefoot on the land, being gently surrounded by greenery and crops, and enjoying the fresh breeze and green grass.
This kind of pastoral courtyard life, which seems to have come out of the picture scroll, undoubtedly arouses everyone's deep yearning.
And all this was vividly interpreted by a woman named Li Ziqi.
She, Li Ziqi, like a fairy who has traveled through time, wears a long skirt, picks flowers and makes wine, skillfully weaves bamboo, carefully processes woodware, and in her yard, flowers bloom, butterflies flutter, and bees are busy.
Her life seems to be a poem and a painting, which makes people yearn for it.
Li Ziqi, who is it?
Li Ziqi, an Internet celebrity from Mianyang City, Sichuan Province, uses her lens and hands to weave beautiful pastoral dreams on the short video platform.
In her videos, flowers are fences, poetry is walls, and every picture is full of the charm of life and the gift of nature.
Every time I watch her videos, I can make people forget the chaos of the world for a while and find inner peace.
Why is she so famous?
Li Ziqi's fame is not accidental, she takes traditional Chinese culture and rural life as the theme, through handicraft, cooking food, agricultural planting and other forms, to show the world the profundity of Chinese culture and the subtlety of traditional Chinese crafts.
Her videos are not only informative, but also well-made, and every detail reveals her love for life and pursuit of beauty.
At the same time, her activity on multiple social media platforms has also allowed her to accumulate a large number of fans and following.
Her courtyard, her world
Under Li Ziqi's lens, her courtyard is a small world, full of the breath of life and the charm of nature.
The tiled house is plain, and the small courtyard is full of all kinds of fruits, vegetables and flowers, and every corner is full of vitality and vitality.
In this small courtyard, she lives a simple and poetic life, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, which makes people feel the beauty and tranquility of rural life.
However, after 3 years, when we looked back at Li Ziqi's "courtyard" again, we found that the "fairyland on earth" that once fascinated us was not completely real.
This is not to say that her courtyard and life are fictional, but that behind the camera, there is more hard work and dedication.
Landscaped courtyard life
In order to shoot the quiet scenes of those years, Li Ziqi made great efforts.
She removed the footage of a lot of labor, leaving only the most delicate images. Through time-lapse photography and other technical means, she condenses the process of sowing food, breaking the soil, flowering, and fruiting into a few seconds of images, presenting us with a healing beauty in front of our eyes.
But behind this, it is her rough and industrious hands that are silently giving.
If you look closely at her hands, you will see that they do not look like the hands of a girl in her 20s. Rough skin, protruding joints, small scars...... These are the traces of her long-term labor.
Some people say that Li Ziqi is not a fairy-like existence, but an ordinary rural woman.
Her fairy spirit actually comes more from her costume and elaborate video editing, rather than herself. If we ignore these external ornaments and focus only on her hands, we will find that this is clearly a weathered laborer who is good at farm work.
Unique editing techniques and visual presentation
Li Ziqi's video is fascinating, but also thanks to her unique editing techniques and visual presentation:
- Exquisite scene selection and layout:
Every scene in her video has been carefully selected and arranged. Whether it is distant mountains, bamboo forests, peach blossom forests, or wheat fields, they all show the vastness and silence of the natural landscape.
- Unique Perspectives and Lens Usage:
She is adept at using a variety of unique perspectives and shots, such as bird's-eye views, close-ups, etc., to show the storyline.
At the same time, it is interspersed with many empty mirrors showing natural landscapes, so that the audience can feel the tranquility and nature of rural life while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
- Beautiful music and sound effects:
The music and sound effects in her videos are always so beautiful and relevant, which can guide the audience into the story situation and feel the peace and beauty.
- Meticulous editing and post-processing:
Her video editing and post-processing are meticulous, and every frame has been carefully adjusted and polished to make the entire video look perfect.
epilogue
Although Li Ziqi's courtyard life may be a little idealistic, the real emotions and love for rural life she conveys in each video cannot be disguised.
This is also the reason why she was able to stand out from many Internet celebrities and has always been loved and expected by the audience.
After 3 years, looking back at her "yard" again, we may find more stories and dedications behind it, but at the same time, we will cherish more the beauty and tranquility she presents to us.
