摘要：電影《紅高粱》運用了諸多艷麗色彩，取得極具衝擊力量的視覺效果。色彩的運用既來自導演張藝謀的審美趣味和專業素養，也包含中國文化獨特的色彩符號。影片通過色彩藝術，傳神地再現了原著的豐富內涵和小說作者莫言的精神表達，文學與電影元素兼具。本演講將先分析《紅高粱》中各種顏色的具體體現及其含義，試圖思考張藝謀電影中的色彩密碼和莫言小說《紅高粱》的色彩密碼，進而探究張藝謀導演藝術和莫言小說寫作技巧。

The film Red Sorghum applies many bright colours, which generate an impactful visual effect. The colour application is from Zhang Yimou’s aesthetic taste and professional training. It also contains the colour symbols unique to Chinese culture. Through the art of colour, the film vividly relays the rich content of Mo Yan’s eponymous novel and Mo Yan’s thought, combining both the literary and filmic elements. This talk will first analyse the use of colours and its implications in Red Sorghum to decipher the colour codes in Zhang's film and Mo Yan's novel, and then explore the former's art of directing and the latter's literary techniques.
