Kids, do you brush your teeth carefully every day?
What the? fair?
Oops, then you have to worry about little red face and little blue face!
--"Little Red Face and Little Blue Face"
Little Red Face and Little Blue Face were looking for targets with telescopes, and they saw that Bob was still eating snacks when he slept, so they immediately ran into Bob's mouth and began to eat the delicacy between his teeth. What is a little red face and a little blue face? Why run into Bob's mouth to eat? What magical things happen next?
In this article, I will lead you to feel how the popular science education animation "Little Red Face and Little Blue Face" can vividly convey scientific principles from three aspects: the introduction of the film, how the film vividly conveys scientific principles, and several forms of science popularization education.
<h1>"Little Red Face and Little Blue Face" presents an interesting and vivid scientific feast to the audience in an easy and straightforward way. </h1>
One: the basic content and characteristics of the film.
Did it happen when we were young: no matter how much our parents advised us to eat less snacks, we always acted arbitrarily without persuasion, until our teeth hurt so much that we regretted not heeding our parents' warnings. Bob in the film, like us, is going through such a process.
"Little Red Face and Little Blue Face" is based on the fairy tale of Thorbian Egger, which tells the story of little red face and little blue face (scientific name is lactobacillus, which is a very harmful bacteria to teeth) settled in Bob's teeth and settled down in the teeth to be finally expelled from the whole process, to give inspiration to children who do not like to brush their teeth, and educate children to develop good behavior habits.
"Little Red Face and Little Blue Face" is an animated short film with bright colors, novel ideas, lively forms, light music, simple character lines, certain educational significance and unique artistic style.
The film presents boring and difficult scientific knowledge in an easy and intuitive way, uses anthropomorphic expression techniques, and presents an interesting and vivid scientific feast to the audience through the guidance of narration, and the film also expands the way of popular science education to some extent, and won the Xiaobaihua Best Art Film Award in 1982.
Popular science education refers to the use of various media to introduce scientific knowledge, spirit, thought, application and other activities to the general public in a simple way that makes it easy for the audience to understand, accept and participate, which is a kind of social education, and its basic characteristics are social, mass and continuous.
Two: National first-class director - Dai Tielang.
The director of "Little Red Face and Little Blue Face" is a national famous animation film artist and first-class director - Dai Tielang, who has participated in and served as a character design, original animation design director and general director of more than dozens of works such as "Black Cat Sheriff", "Little Tadpole Finds Mother", "Mudi", "Nine Colored Deer" and so on, and has participated in the directing of many films that have won various awards, and Dai Tielang is also quite famous in the industry.
<h1>The form of popular science education vividly and interestingly shows the principles of science. </h1>
One: The narration of the magnetic voice takes us to the scene, throughout the beginning and end of the story.
The film has only the voice of the narrator from beginning to end, the voice is gentle and magnetic, it is like the sound of the gentle mother explaining the bedtime story before falling asleep, sometimes high and low, sometimes tense and exciting, leading the audience to the scene.
Through the narrator's introduction, we know that the two protagonists in the film, the little red face and the small blue face, turned out to be lactobacillus, a bacterium that has a destructive effect on the teeth. Such an introduction is more clear and straightforward, so that the audience can clearly and understand some important scientific knowledge while watching, just like a tour guide who is detailing the history of the attractions and the cultural heritage behind them with tourists, achieving the purpose of learning while watching.
With the different changes in the voice of the narrator, we can also perceive the development of the film's story. Whether it is to use a persuasive tone to make Xiaoming eat less snacks, or a small red face and a small blue face to destroy in the teeth, the sense of tension and worry is vividly depicted by the undulating changes of the narrator's voice, which makes us seem to feel the pain of tooth decay, the regret and regret after the teeth are destroyed.
This is the charm of sound, but also the role of narration, which can not only lead the audience to think together, understand the content and scientific principles presented in the film, but also make the audience feel more deeply through the emotional guidance of sound.
Second, the anthropomorphic expression method makes the boring and difficult scientific knowledge more interesting and vivid.
Tooth decay, also known as caries, is formed by plaque that contains the bacteria that cause caries. After each meal, the bacteria in the plaque will chemically interact with the sugar or starch in the food, producing acidic substances that corrode the teeth. Over time, the enamel of the teeth will be destroyed, forming small, fragile moth spots, which continue to deteriorate to form tooth decay.
Scientific detailed explanation can also make people understand the truth, but for children or people who do not like to read words in fragments, it is almost like a scripture, especially the proper nouns in it are even more headaches.
The film uses anthropomorphic expression techniques to show the complex and difficult tooth decay problems and processes to the audience plainly and directly, so that the audience can understand the "tooth decay principle" more clearly and intuitively.
The little red face and the little blue face are the bacteria in the plaque, the scientific name is lactobacillus. The film uses two anthropomorphic bugs to visualize the difficult chemical terms such as "Lactobacillus", and name them respectively - small red face and small blue face, so that the interesting and vivid image changes the audience's resistance to jerky nouns, and through the behavior of the two little guys, the audience can more clearly understand the "process of tooth decay".
After Xiaoming eats, the little red face and the little blue face will enter Xiaoming's mouth and start eating the "delicacies" hidden between his teeth. They eat with relish, and when they have eaten enough, they spit out acid. This process is the process of "producing chemical action", through a series of actions such as "eating food" and "spitting acid water", the "chemical action" is vividly expressed, so that the vague concept is visualized and the scientific principle is fully demonstrated.
Acid water attached to the teeth, and the little red face and the little blue face began to dig holes in the teeth with sharp serrated hair, trying to settle in the teeth. The "process of tooth decay" is vividly expressed, and the vivid display process of the image also clearly presents the original vague concept of "tooth decay", making it easy for the audience to understand.
The process of eating food, spitting acid water, and digging holes is the process of tooth decay, and some jerky and difficult nouns and complex chemical processes are presented to the audience in an interesting form through anthropomorphic behavior mode, which visualizes the vague concept and allows the audience to intuitively understand the whole process, and achieves the role of easy for the audience to understand in popular science.
Three: Ten minutes to present a complete storyline, the story structure is complete, in one go.
The film is about ten minutes long, but it presents a complete storyline to the audience, not only showing the complete tooth decay process, but also telling the audience how to deal with the toothache problem, achieving the purpose of "solving the problem" in popular science publicity, so that the role and value of the film can be better sublimated.
The impressive part of the film is the process of "corrosion" of the little red face and the little blue face in the teeth, they make the palace, play music, dance, and show the process of "corroding the teeth" in the form of joy, which is in stark contrast to the painful process of Xiaoming being tortured by the teeth and making the face swollen, which makes people have a feeling of "your happiness is the pain of others", and it is also more empathetic - the pain of tooth decay is really maddening.
Xiaoming, who is in excruciating pain, finally began to brush his teeth, but simple treatment methods can not drive away the small red face and small blue face, and if you want to completely solve the problem of toothache, you must go to a professional stomatological hospital to seek the help of a doctor.
"Toothache is not a disease, it hurts badly." However, the process of treating teeth is also very "terrible". The whole process of treating teeth in the film is the process of the doctor fighting with the little red face and the little blue face. Listening to the sound of the machine "squeaking" and turning, I was suddenly creeped out of my teeth experience, and that painful experience immediately appeared in front of my eyes, making me suddenly determined to take good care of my teeth.
In fact, the film presents the process of treating teeth in a heroic battle scene, which is to convey to the audience that the process of treating teeth is the process of fighting against germs, without fear. However, as soon as I hear the sound of the machine turning, I will be afraid, maybe this feeling can make me remember the lesson, so that I can pay attention to the formation of good living habits in my daily life, so as not to be "plagued by disease".
Fourth, the plain and straightforward short film conveys a meaningful truth to the audience.
1, "danger" is everywhere.
At the beginning and end of the film, small red faces and small blue faces are looking for targets with telescopes, and any bad behavior habits may make them find a place to "settle down", so "danger" is everywhere.
When we haven't had any problems with our bodies, we may never think about paying attention to healthy eating, behavior, etc.
Just like you eat the sea to the fullest, enjoy the delicious at the same time, will not care about the management of the body, wait until the body is fat before you begin to regret that you should not overeat; It's like sweating every time you exercise, waiting until your legs cramp up to regret that you weren't ready to exercise at the beginning; It's like sitting in front of the TV to watch TV, always holding the phone to stare at the screen, waiting until the eyes are myopic and can't see clearly, and then regret not protecting your vision.
Any "danger" will happen inadvertently, and developing good behavior habits, good eating habits, and good style can help you stay away from "danger" and make you live a better life.
2. Know how to "think of danger in times of peace".
Many people have this problem: when the pain and pain have passed, they seem to forget it, so they start to "act recklessly" and start to indulge themselves, but they do not know that such behavior is repeating the same mistakes, just like reincarnation, so that pain will come to them again. Therefore, we must know how to think of danger in times of peace, and do a good job of "protective" measures in ordinary life, so that illness will no longer occur.
Bob in the film is an example, although he has sensed pain in his teeth, he did not deal with the problem in time without pain, but continued to eat good food, which made the condition of the toothache worse.
If you can deal with the problem in time in the "bud stage", many small pains and small diseases can be well cured; If you can develop good behavior habits and eating habits in your daily life, and eliminate the occurrence of "diseases" from the root causes, then the "loss" will be minimized, and it will also help your physical and mental health.
Therefore, don't think that you are in good health now, there is no pain on the body, know how to "health", know how to think of danger in peace, maintain a high degree of vigilance against "danger", in order to let us better maintain physical and mental health,
3. Developing good behavior habits requires accumulated persistence.
The formation of any habit is not a one-time thing, but requires our accumulated persistence.
When the film ends, the narrator does not forget to remind the audience that the little red face and the little blue face are not gone, but temporarily left, they may come again when we relax our vigilance anytime and anywhere, so we must not relax, we need to continue to maintain good behavior habits, in order to put an end to the occurrence of "disease", so that the little red face and the little blue face have nowhere to live.
<h1>Intuitive and interesting ways to popularize scientific knowledge. </h1>
Difficult words and esoteric conceptual scientific principles are difficult for people to digest and accept at once; Sometimes constant reminders and vigilance, it is easy to be neglected and forgotten.
If the complex scientific knowledge is displayed in an interesting and intuitive form, so that people can clearly feel and facilitate understanding, and achieve the purpose of popular science education, so that boring and rigorous scientific knowledge becomes simple and interesting, such a formal method is effective and worth promoting.
The characteristics of scientific popularization show that science popularization work must use socialized, mass, and regular science popularization methods, make full use of the various circulation channels and information dissemination media in modern society, and lose no time in widely infiltrating into various social activities, so as to form a large-scale, vigorous, and socialized popularization of science.
One: audio-visual combination of animation and advertising.
The form of animation and advertising can intuitively display scientific knowledge, and through the transmission of sound, interesting and vivid things and interesting content, the boring and rigorous scientific knowledge is easily and lively, which is easy for people to accept; It can also present complex and difficult principles and functions through various expression methods to achieve the role of "conciseness and conciseness", and animation and advertising are undoubtedly good forms of popular science.
Two: educational toys and games.
A variety of fun games and educational toys can develop brain power and intelligence, stimulate the body's various senses to respond, coordinate bodily functions, at the same time, language ability, emotional release, hands-on ability and so on can be improved to a certain extent. Through fun games and the assistance of educational toys, scientific knowledge will directly penetrate into games and toys, learn while playing, edutainment, and promote parent-child interaction and increase parent-child emotions.
Three: Interesting science experiments.
Scientific experiments can develop children's hand-eye coordination ability, promote the development of muscle groups, exercise children's divergent thinking ability, hands-on and brain-moving ability, language expression ability and group cooperation ability; Through the production of scientific experiments, children can be stimulated to learn the interest and ability to explore and think, in the experiment to learn to understand the relevant knowledge, this form of scientific knowledge also plays a role in popularizing scientific knowledge.
Four: Exquisite comics and picture books.
A good popular science book should not only instill scientific knowledge, but also stimulate children's imagination and curiosity, so that children can explore the magical world freely. Picture books and comics can combine whimsy and abstract scientific knowledge, express scientific knowledge through interesting and vivid plot content, colorful picture sense and humor, easy to understand language, take children to enjoy the world of science, showing a novel, fascinating, alternative way of science popularization.
Five: Audio Exhibition Hall.
The audio exhibition hall has the characteristics of strong sense of experience, science popularization, viewing and entertainment value. According to the different audiences, the style and content will change, so the audio exhibition hall is the most direct, the richest content, the most diverse form of science popularization.
Through the presentation of various contents, taking the public into a world where science and technology and art are combined, whimsical ideas and bold creative innovations will break through the public's thinking, and the role of science popularization will also be maximized.
<h1>summary</h1>
The form of popular science education animation makes the boring and difficult scientific knowledge in the film vivid, so that the audience can more directly understand and accept the content conveyed in the film, and learn relevant scientific knowledge in the lively and interesting animation.
In ordinary life, if scientific knowledge can be displayed in an interesting and easy to accept form, I believe that even boring and difficult scientific principles can be loved and accepted by the public, only through multi-faceted exploration and efforts of various channels, simplifying complexity, turning boring into interesting, science popularization work can be better carried out, and the effect of science popularization can be maximized.
