Zhang+Yi+Mou 

 The director that I looked at Zhang Yi Mou, perhaps one of most famous Chinese directors of all time. He is famous for many things and I believe that I could use many of his techniques and works to incorporate into my own final film. One of the things that Zhang Yi Mou is most known for is his use of colors. Zhang Yi Mou uses them to separate his movie into different acts, but I believe that I can use this technique to support the tone of my film. Since my Lemonade stand film is going to be a lighthearted film, the colors that are used should be very light as well, to convey the tone of the film. Another Classic Zhang Yi Mou technique/style is that Zhang Yi Mou uses a lot of color correction to make his film a lot brighter to convey a sense of mood, I believe that if I do this in my film it and color correct it into a brighter color, it will convey the tone of light-heartedness in my film. The most classic Zhang Yi Mou technique is that he uses is teaching a lesson through his films. For example in his movie //Hero//, the audience is given the message that sometimes what it means to be a hero is that you have to sacrifice your own needs for the greater good. While in another movie like //Curse of the Golden Flower// is that you should not take what is not yours. I believe that this style used my Zhang Yi Mou could be very important to my final film’s plot. Since the ending of the Lemonade stand is going to be Huggs and Herbert working together, I believe that I can use this Zhang Yi Mou to send a message to the audience of the importance of teamwork.
