Production Technology
The advertising screen is easy to understand. It comes from the empathy of specific things and the complete artistic presentation, that is, the deconstruction and reorganization of familiar things. Humans are visual animals, and different colors and lines have different emotions and expressions. The pictures refer to a large number of ancient books from the East and the West, such as Chinese bamboo slips, thread-bound books, Western parchment scrolls, hardcover books, etc. It is so re-organized into easy-to-understand visual symbols. Viewers can easily feel the historical emotions from the graphics and explore the story behind the graphics.
Design Challenge
The advertising design is in line with the spirit and image of the program, with books as the main body of the design. Classics is not only the external image of the entire program, but also an important carrier of knowledge inheritance. For human beings, it has a unified value cognition and is universal.

In the design itself, deconstruction and graphic expression are used to deal with books, so that people with different cultural backgrounds can quickly understand the meaning, understand Chinese books through graphics, and understand the Chinese stories and oriental spirit behind the books.
Research

People with different cultural backgrounds can read different stories. For example, people who are familiar with Chinese characters can find the word dictionary hidden in book symbols.
