Character evaluation

Mu Deyuan has a lot of identity tags. It seems that he has been switching between photographer, director and screenwriter. At the same time, he explored the possibility of change and innovation in his works. He constantly pursues his own unique beauty of light and shadow, color and movement, constructs his own image modeling language system, and always finds the most accurate, natural, delicate and appropriate image expression and light and shadow charm for his films. He is a hard-working and hard-working image worker. No matter as a photographer or a director, in the creation and expression of various themes, he has left rich and diverse image memories for the audience and Chinese films (Contemporary Film Review).
