In a high-tech era, this animated film director has created incredible works in the old way. For more than 2 years, the animation created by Japanese animation master Miyazaki Hayao often has more beautiful pictures and surprising imagination than anything else in the film-for example, many ghosts, walking castles, flying objects, cat buses and totoro (only children can see them). He is a "terrible" handcraft artist, and Miyazaki Hayao participated in it from writing scripts to sketching to correcting the final story structure! And it's all done by hand. He is simply a combination of Walt Disney, Steven Spielberg and Orson Wells, and the beautiful landscape in his works has a little taste of claude Monay, and his naughty degree and incomparable understanding of children are better than that of roald dahl. Miyazaki Hayao is not the father of Japanese animation. The first person in Japanese animation is Osamu Tezuka. He is the creator of iconic characters such as Astro Boy, and also the pioneer who advocates Japanese animation to move towards "big eyes" style. He is full of inspiration, imagining that every hero with a nail-like hairstyle raises his arm to fight against a huge robot. However, compared with most other animators, Miyazaki Hayao's name and his studio Gilib are more synonymous with Japanese animation. "He is an excellent story creator, and he can naturally tell everyone the story in his heart, and this talent makes him an unforgettable director." Jonathan clements, the co-author of "Animation Encyclopedia", said, "All the little people who participated in his works have made a blockbuster success because of their works." Princess Ghost, an animated work about the ecological environment with ancient Japan as the background, occupied the first place in the box office of Japanese film history until the film Titanic was released in 1997. In 21, Miyazaki Hayao created a work with a similar theme to the Ghost Princess-Spirited Away, which won an Oscar. It tells the story of a ten-year-old girl looking for a way to break the curse that turned her parents into pigs. Like many of Miyazaki Hayao's works, Spirited Away deeply emphasized the importance of self-reliance, selfless dedication and challenges to growing difficulties. The richness of this theme is the key point. toshio suzuki, the producer of Gilib, said, "What kind of animation should we create for children? Our work is the result of serious thinking about this issue. " What makes Miyazaki Hayao's animation so attractive? It is because in this era of computer painting, such as Car Story, Toy Story and Finding Nemo by PIXAR and Disney Company, Miyazaki Hayao still devotes himself to creating a peaceful and beautiful Zen world with his hands, just like clear water dripping on mossy rocks, just like a train crossing the sea at dawn. This vivid highlight is not conveyed by a lot of music or high technology, but by simple and excellent craftsmanship, which is enough to make you think far and far.
the types of characters created by Miyazaki Hayao

It has to be admitted that there are many similarities in the character modeling and personality of each animation of Miyazaki Hayao, but the meaning of this model does not mean that the talents are exhausted, but it is naturally continued in each production, which constitutes the overall style of his works. The following is to analyze the law of role-building by classifying Miyazaki Hayao's female roles, male roles and divine roles.
2.1 female characters
Most of the protagonists in Miyazaki Hayao's works are women. These female characters all have a sincere and unchanging life principle, a kind and firm expression, a strong hometown complex and a sense of adventure, which makes Miyazaki Hayao's creative concept get integrated. It can also be seen from the subtle change from Nausicaa to Chihiro's personality that the characters finally begin to become flawed, such as Chihiro, who initially changed from a timid one. According to their different images and personality characteristics, these female characters can be divided into the following categories:
2.1.1 Destiny girls —— "Nausicaa", "Hida" and "Sang"
Most of Miyazaki Hayao's animation works are magical, which stems from the fact that the story background is usually set in a foreign country or ancient times, and he often endows the animation protagonist with mysterious power and loneliness, which shapes a series. From Nausicaa, the earliest girl who defends the wind in the Valley of the Wind, and Hida, the princess Rapat in the City of the Sky, to Sang, the princess of the dog family in Princess Ghost, Miyazaki Hayao has given these slender and lonely girls both bizarre life experiences and sacred missions. There are often mysterious fates following the destiny of the girls, and they often choose to sacrifice to save other creatures trapped in tragic situations. Nausicaa is the most typical example. She can almost see the shadow of Jesus Christ-bearing the cross of fate, using her body to quell the anger of the God of the earth, and the broken relationship between man and God was restored, and she was resurrected in the kindness of the God of the earth. To some extent, she is not only treating the fallen human beings, but also comforting the furious lotus mother. Girls often need to sacrifice themselves as sacrifices. Such a fate cannot be said to be tragic or noble.
Nausicaa is a young master of the Valley of the Wind who has magical ability to keep out the wind. She is brave, loving, pursuing peace and willing to sacrifice. At the same time, she has a beautiful face. She is almost the perfect role in Miyazaki Hayao's works and is regarded as the goddess in her heart by animation fans in Miyazaki Hayao. "According to Miyazaki Hayao himself, Nausicaa is the prototype of Princess Acchia in the ancient Greek legend Odyssey, so Nausicaa has the warmth, romance and tenacity of a princess. At the same time, the temperament and love of the princess in the Japanese fairy tale Princess Love Bug gave Nausicaa at the same time. So, in the gloomy world of the valley of the wind, there is this fresh and beautiful princess soaring in the air. "
Sida in "City in the Sky" was an ordinary and gentle little girl at first. The power of the mysterious flying stone brought her a series of disasters-kidnapping and hunting. She discovered her life story-the princess of Rapat, and at the same time bravely undertook her mission-protecting the city of Rapat in the sky. She made the same move as Nausicaa-sacrificing herself for peace and beauty. When Hida and Pass clasped their hands together and loudly recited a spell to end up with the city of the sky and the aspirant Muska, the picture in the film was as shocking as Nausicaa's standing in front of the attacking king insects in the Valley of the Wind-the girl of destiny once again assumed her destiny.
