Abstract

The long shots in Chinese films reflect profound traditional cultural connotations with their unique aesthetic style, especially forming distinct aesthetic features under the influence of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. From the realistic tendency of Confucianism, to the Taoist view of "non action" in nature, and to the Buddhist pursuit of "artistic conception", long shots are not only an artistic means of film narrative, but also a contemporary interpretation of cultural traditions in Chinese cinema. Based on this, this article first elaborates on the long shots of Confucianism Chinese cinema reflecting reality, then analyzes that the long shots of Taoism Chinese cinema are mostly panoramic long shots with fixed camera positions, and finally analyzes the realm of long shots in Buddhism Chinese cinema for reference.
