Randy W Posted November 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 Online influencers tend to be highly recognizable — their face is their brand, after all. Unless you’re Chujiu. Her appearance can change completely from one minute to the next. The makeup artist, who has found fame with her magical transformations, explains the motivation behind the hit “100 Villains” series and the hours of work needed to create just one short video. from the Sixth Tone on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/sixthtone/posts/pfbid0soX66HFkbT2vLubrM2qhf48v8QZdJLHTkymh12z6Pqg2PEGfGdBtiBtVp8giZ31Sl Chujiu: A Master of Disguise The makeup artist, who has found fame with her magical transformations, explains the motivation behind the hit “100 Villains” series and the hours of work needed to create just one short video. Quote One of China’s most popular social media content creators, makeup artist Chujiu is famed for her fantastical videos, in which she brings to life characters from films, books, and television. In the space of a week, she can appear as the villain Voldemort from the “Harry Potter” series, Bai Suzhen from the Chinese folk classic “Legend of White Snake,” or as a Na’vi warrior from the blockbuster movie “Avatar.” Fans would unlikely notice if they passed her on the street, though, with her baggy clothes, hat, mask, and sunglasses. “I couldn’t be less fashionable,” she says with a smile. Even people who see Chujiu almost every day sometimes fail to recognize her. Once, she says, she arrived at the building where she rents a studio with a large bag of props for a photoshoot and a security guard stopped her in her tracks, telling her, “No door-to-door salespeople.” Link to comment

Randy W Posted November 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Princess Iron Fan 鐵扇公主 (1941) China’s first feature-length animated sound film adapts a story from chapters 69-72 of the Ming dynasty novel Journey to the West 西遊記. The Tang monk Tripitaka and his companions Sun Wukong (Monkey), Zhu Bajie (Pigsy), and Sha Monk (Sandy) arrive at the Mountain of Flames and find it impassible, so they seek to borrow the palm-leaf fan from Princess Iron Fan, who is not easily persuaded. Made and released during Japan’s occupation of China, the film calls for people to keep the faith, work together, and literally go through fire to rid the world of a calamity. Link to comment
