The gap between the current clothing and the previous clothing is not generally large, especially the clothing style and clothing is incomparable. Filters, beauty, colorful clothes … I can't bear to look straight.
The recognition is too low.
As soon as the current clothes came out, I went blind. In the end, everyone is starring and looks the same. Previous stars, various faces, oval face, square face, diamond face ... make people look not only comfortable, but also very resolution. But now it's a unified oval face, high nose and big eyes ... If you watch too much, you will have a kind of visual fatigue.
2. The clothes are too gorgeous
Nowadays, the costume in ancient costume feels too gorgeous. The makeup is very strong, and I feel that everyone is wearing gold and silver, lacking a charm. When I think of the old costume, although it looks simple, everyone is very distinctive, with different tasks and personalities, and different clothes.
3. "Fast-moving consumer goods"
People used to shoot ancient costumes with awe, but now it seems that they are rushing to shoot one before waiting for the fire. Just like creating a task, it has no aesthetic feeling at all, so it gives people an increasingly ugly feeling.
Because the current costume dramas don't pay much attention to some details about the characters.
Let's talk about costume dramas that are highly discussed at present. ...
Let's look at a set of pictures. They are different female roles. Although the hairstyles are very different, without exception, bangs are not chosen, and there is at most a strand of hair. This directly leads to many viewers who can't tell who is who, and their faces are similar, which is even more confusing.
In the past, costume dramas had a very detailed division of modeling.
For example, Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Li Yin in "Eternal Change" in 03. Everyone has their own fixed style, not to mention clothes, but their hairstyles are quite different.
More specifically, it should be related to the different periods of the characters.
Like Xiao Zhao. She began to comb a pair of ponytails, air bangs and a small ball on her forehead. Xiao Zhao was charming, but now she is even more charming.
In the middle of the plot, the headdress was changed on the basis of the original shape. You see, it is such a small change, which not only retains the beauty of Xiao Zhao, but also presents a new look.
Zhao Min has many shapes. But without exception, they all highlighted her ability and frankness, avoiding the cute feeling brought by bangs. Because Zhao Min is not Xiao Zhao, there is no need to be coquettish.
Zhao Min, a new eternal man, has a lot of clothes, but the details such as hairstyle and headdress are not polished, so that they are the same. In fact, the shape is not ugly, but it is not so changeable without losing the original character of the role.
The shapes of Zhou Zhiruo and Li Yin in Eternity are not deliberately changeable. Because Zhou Zhiruo was the apprentice of the extermination teacher, and Li Yin made fewer moves.
Of course, not only the current costume dramas (just a lot), but also the previous costume dramas have this problem. For example, 09 "Eternity" is not detailed and changeable in shape.
In order to pursue public aesthetics, the charm of ancient costumes is ignored.
There is a good saying, "everyone will be happy to see the cherry mouth with curved eyebrows and willow leaves." Previous costume dramas were all like this, especially pursuing this classical aesthetic feeling.

Is this beauty obvious? But it should be a kind of inheritance. As a result, most costume dramas were replaced by Korean eyebrows.
Most of the actors nowadays lack cultural self-cultivation.
Cultural accomplishment seems to have little to do with the beauty and ugliness of modeling. But when you think about it, it is closely related. For example, if you wear makeup, it won't work if your words and deeds don't look like an ancient one. Otherwise, why do the actors in A Dream of Red Mansions have to train for several years?
Can people who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and who often read and write poems be the same as those who talk nonsense on the Internet every day? The temperament gap is definitely huge. Of course, actors are also engaged in art, just acting in ancient costumes. They don't need to sing, dance or play the guitar. They can only be art, not classical enough.
Real beauty is lacking now.
If it's fairy sister Liu Yifei, all you need is an elegant costume.
A beautiful woman in costume like Liu Shishi will do.
Or Tong Liya, light makeup and heavy makeup are always appropriate.
If not, then no matter how gorgeous the shape is, it can't stop an "ugly" word.
To sum up, there are many reasons why the shape is getting ugly now. If we continue to develop like this, our beautiful women in ancient costumes will slowly wither and even have a short gap. In the future, it will be Korean eyebrows, plastic face and net red face, which is terrible to think about. I can only hope that more and more responsible creators will change this common phenomenon as soon as possible, and that beautiful women will stop pursuing flashy beauty. Simple atmosphere is the highest realm of beauty.
Take the recent hit Dragon Slayer as an example. Ruthless Zhou Zhiruo, headstrong Zhao Min and cute Xiao Zhao are all girls with different personalities, so their costumes and distribution should be different. But look at these actresses in the new edition. They really can't tell who is who when they stand with the man. The identification of characters is too vague, which is also an old problem that many TV dramas are absent-minded now.
Let's watch this version of Alec Su TV series. Zhao Min is very heroic, so his hair is often tied up. Zhou Zhiruo is a cold beauty, so her makeup will be more feminine and feminine. Xiao Zhao wears a ponytail and trinkets to make her look cuter.
It can be said that these details are not high, but the difference between doing and not doing is very big.
Nowadays, many costume dramas think that the actors are beautiful and the costumes are colorful. No matter which dynasty, actors get a word eyebrow, which doesn't look classical. Now the makeup technology and funds are much better than before, why are there fewer and fewer classics left? This is really depressing.
The only explanation is that people used to shoot costume dramas with awe. Nowadays, the team filming costume drama is like a fast-moving consumer goods, just to complete a work task, without any aesthetic pursuit. Therefore, even when the film and television market is developing well, we can still look over the old works. This scene is really a bit of black humor.
This is an embarrassing situation at present. Now the technology is getting more and more sophisticated, but the clothing modeling is getting ugly and unsatisfactory!
Although the environment of costume drama in the past was far worse than now, their concept was "drama is bigger than the sky" From actors to directors, every detail will be carefully interpreted, from clothing to modeling, and even framing, it will be polished repeatedly, so the ancient costumes at that time were very beautiful! The director will spend nearly 80% of his money on clothing, makeup, scenery and so on. Instead of accounting for more than 60% of the actor's salary now. You can imagine what the job will be like!
This is a scene from "Couple on the Wrong Bus". When two women meet, it can be seen that TV plays have spent a lot of effort in shaping actors, from headdresses and hairstyles to costumes, which are exquisite enough to meet the needs of plot characters.
At that time, costume dramas were not only good-looking for women, but also handsome for male artists, which made people enter the plot at a glance. Sha Yi used to be a handsome young man. I wonder what time has done to him and how handsome he is now!
Compared with the previous aesthetic costume dramas, today's costume dramas are really disgusting. A good costume drama must make its shape look like a "broom star"! It's good to pursue innovation, but you can't just move around!
In fact, the main reason is that the current TV series is over-commercialized. Ask a few traffic stars to make a rough production and release it quickly, and you will get rich returns. Who has the heart to make a good movie?
On fashion modeling, TVB fashion modeling in 1980s and 1990s is absolutely an insurmountable mountain. Bring us one feast after another with unique and charming costumes.

Other supporting roles
Everyone's eyebrow makeup has its own characteristics, which is more in line with the role setting and can bring beautiful enjoyment to the audience according to their different temperament.
Some current clothing styles are biased by Korean aesthetics, which makes clothing styles neither fish nor fowl. Take advantage of the situation to see if it is suitable, rather than blindly pursuing fashion. But some plays are also quite conscience.
Finally, whether the shape looks good or not depends on the shape and the director's aesthetics.
Here's a quote from Zheng Zheng: Compared with the previous TV series, you will say that there is nothing new, and you will find something different. What should you do? There are more than 100 kinds of ancient steamed buns in China recorded in paragraph "Steamed buns and pins", all of which are arranged by clothes. If the costume group can study this book well, I believe it should be quite rewarding.
Essentially, the producers of TV dramas are not careful enough. Now everything is fast, fast food, fast-selling brands and so on. Even TV series should pay attention to the fast cycle return, and it may take several months from shooting to meeting you. Where is the time to polish these details?
Guan Xiaotong's sewing machine, Carina Lau's head full of copper coins and other shocking shapes are neither aesthetic nor popular with the audience. Even if it does exist, it will never be beautiful. Clothing makeup can be made into such a shape, which is enough to show that they may not have done much homework.
Shapes should not be the same, but now many clothing shapes, whether you are a hostess or a companion, are similar in shape, hairstyle and face shape. If you are really face-blind, you have to hear someone's name to recognize it.
Facts have proved that you can do it well as long as you have the heart. For example, JUNG WOO's "The Story of Yan Xi Palace" has a good overall costume, and the characters' shapes and headdresses are not conventional, especially Qin Lan's role as Queen Fu Cha, which reveals Bai Yueguang's role aura from the shape.
Most of the concubines in the Qing Palace drama are flag heads, which are also combined with other hair accessories of the concubines in the palace. In The Story of Yan Xi Palace, the headdress is somewhat similar but not exactly the same. The exquisite jewelry sets off the nobility of Queen Fu Cha, who is in a high position but not pretentious.
Sometimes those wonderful shapes may also be to attract attention. For example, Wu Meiniang played by Fan Bingbing is synonymous with elegance. I wish I could wear all the treasures of the palace on my head. Although this shape is not ugly, it looks cumbersome, perhaps to make the character more recognizable.
In the past, costume dramas did not have large-scale production, cool special effects and exaggerated costume props, but each costume style had its own characteristics. At present, the production level of costume drama is not bad, but there are few characters that people will never forget, and the costume modeling is getting ugly and flashy. Mainly because of these points:
1, clothing props are not paid enough attention.
Take Mao Geping's makeup technology as an example. This technology used to be very popular on the Internet. He used to be in charge of Wu Zetian's makeup modeling, and the actresses who came out through his hands all had their own beauty.
Liu Xiaoqing also said in an interview that she didn't think she was beautiful enough, but she felt beautiful after Mao Geping put on makeup. Who would have thought that Liu Xiaoqing was 40 years old when he filmed Wu Zetian? From middle age to youth, I have to say that Mao Geping's makeup skills are superb.
In addition to Liu Xiaoqing, there are the noble queen of Leng Yan, ambitious but unprincipled Xiao Shufei, gentle and generous Shangguan Waner, each with its own characteristics but very dazzling.
Mao Geping is very careful in makeup. He will make makeup and modeling suitable for everyone according to their roles and temperament. His greatest advantage is to modify the defects on the basis of the actor himself, so that the actor can become a high-end version without losing his own style. Every eyebrow shape and lip shape he draws are different and suitable for actors.
On the other hand, TV plays nowadays are fast-moving consumer goods. In order to make money by shooting and broadcasting in the shortest time, the producer keeps reducing the cost and time, so the makeup artist naturally won't spend too much time on the costume modeling of the characters, let alone make up according to everyone's own characteristics.
2. Aesthetics of unified template
I don't know why the word eyebrow is popular in Korean these years. It's really against the modern trend to wear eyebrow characters on ancient costumes! A word eyebrow will look particularly stiff, compared with a willow eyebrow which is thinner. However, many large-scale ip dramas and dramas starring traffic florets have this makeup, which looks really awkward.
There are also fancy colors that have been popular since Yuma, red with big green, and all kinds of colors with high saturation are combined together, which is simply a capital spicy eye. In addition, Abao filter is also a major drawback. Although it can blur the flaws on the actor's face, it is too negligent and has no desire to see it at all.
The actor's temperament and appearance don't match.
Former actors don't know why they were born with a classical temperament. Even if it looks a little modern, it can achieve first-class classical beauty through makeup, clothing and acting. They can be dignified, beautiful and pure, and gentle as water.
Nowadays, the beauty of actors is beauty, but it is too sharp, too modern and less classical, which is completely out of line with the character's temperament.
For example, "The Queen of the Palace", which has gained a good reputation and ratings in recent years, has chosen actors who are very suitable for the role. Eyebrow zhuang is gentle, versatile, gorgeous, deep and handsome. Fat and thin, everyone has charm. Because of this, every leading role and supporting role has something for the audience to remember, so they all shine, from obscurity to overnight fame.
4. Important positions such as artistic director are unqualified.
Art direction, an important position, has been neglected. With a good production designer, the quality of the whole play will not be too bad. The artistic direction needs to study and learn the history, culture, aesthetics and civilization behind the script. To put it simply, things from the Tang Dynasty cannot appear in the Song Dynasty, and works must conform to the background of that era.
Why does the old version of the Three Kingdoms look so realistic? Why is the reputation of Daqin Empire so good? Why is "Golden Powder Family" so classic? This is because a large part of the play referred to the real background at that time and did a lot of homework. Nowadays, the costume drama gives people the feeling that it is a costume drama, but it can be applied to different dynasties and historical backgrounds, and has no precise characteristics.
So many costume dramas nowadays lack too much sincerity compared with the past. They just blindly meet the preferences of traffic fans and the requirements of investment producers, and eventually become Aauto Quicker garbage. So that a conscience drama can be sought after for a long time and become a hot work. Finally, I hope that every staff behind the scenes of film and television dramas can create a good drama with the greatest sincerity.
The reason why ancient costumes are getting ugly now is that makeup artists are becoming more and more uneducated. Instead of trying to restore the true makeup and costumes in history, they use their own imagination and preferences to fictional characters. Of course, they are ugly, specious and neither fish nor fowl. It is because they can't read that they exaggerate and extravagant. It seems that everyone thinks that history is like this, but they don't know that the ancients were the most elegant and exquisite, and there was no vulgarity at all.
Times have changed, and people's aesthetics will naturally change, but the modeling of actresses in costume dramas has always been the highlight of a drama.
Good-looking and exquisite costume modeling naturally won the audience's love, but the modeling of some TV dramas not only did not add color to the actors, but reduced their face value, which is a very serious aesthetic problem.
Of course, it doesn't mean that every character's modeling can be related to his own aesthetics. More importantly, costume dramas generally have the background of the times, the age when the characters live, personality characteristics, family background and so on.
The story background is different, the theme of the times is different, the characters are different, and people's costumes, makeup and hats are naturally different.
However, although many TV dramas nowadays pay attention to the background of the times and stories, they ignore the details of character modeling in that background, such as the collocation of various costumes, different costumes under strict hierarchy, the age of the characters, the growth environment and so on.
Secondly, although we live in the same era, people with different status may have different styles, colors, clothing combinations, headdresses, jewelry and makeup. Then some TV dramas think that all the actors in this drama have a series of hairstyles and a style of clothes color, which will inevitably not cause the audience's aesthetic fatigue, thus stupidly confusing the characters in the drama.
In addition, the reason why the current costume dramas are not as good as before may be that there are too many costume dramas, and women's performances are stereotyped and have no recognition. People are tired of aesthetics, and everyone is different.
If they have the same hairstyle, wear the same color clothes and have some similarities in appearance, it would be really silly to separate them.
I watched some old dramas recently and found the same problem.
In the old drama, no matter the heroine or the female companion, everyone's beauty is very distinctive, and every shape is also very distinctive. They are carefully studied and designed according to roles. For details, you can refer to the 87 version of A Dream of Red Mansions. Every shape of each character can stand scrutiny.
On the other hand, the style of costume drama is getting more and more shocking now, and I want to put everything on my head (just like the famous Guan Xiaotong sewing machine hairstyle). It's a long story There is also a new version of A Dream of Red Mansions, in which all the actors post wig piece, not telling the plot, but looking at the style. Forgive me for not reading it. And all makeup is the same, plus plastic surgery, there will be serious face blindness;
The above only represents personal views, don't spray if you don't like it!
