The "big snowflake" at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics consists of 96 small snowflakes, each of which is inlaid with the name of a participating country and region, so as to embody the spirit of faster, higher, stronger and more United Olympics.
At the opening ceremony of the Beijing 222 Winter Olympics, the Olympic flame was lit in the center of the main torch "Big Snowflake". Pieces of "small snowflakes" make up "big snowflakes", and the olive branch is surrounded by a "silver ribbon". As one of the highlights of the Winter Olympics, the ingenious torch platform attracts people's attention. Behind the smart and elegant shape is the integration of art and technology.
The design concept of the Big Snowflake in the Winter Olympics
Li Min, the designer of the "Big Snowflake" in the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, participated in the revision and perfection of the Big Snowflake. After nearly three years, more than 3 drafts were revised repeatedly, and the "Big Snowflake" was amazing once it was presented to the world. When director Zhang Yimou proposed "Snowflake" as the core idea of the opening ceremony, the director hoped to show Chinese aesthetics through lines and give Snowflake new cultural connotation and vitality.
In the creative process, Li Min collected a large number of snowflake patterns in nature, and also arranged a lot of snowflake design patterns and illustrations. Besides Li Min, many art designers also designed snowflakes at the same time. Everyone designs snowflakes from 24 countries, and one designs snowflakes from 1 countries, and it is 1 completely different snowflakes.
Pieces of "small snowflakes" with the names of all the Winter Olympics delegations are aggregated to form a dazzling "big snowflake". This is the warmest idea of the opening ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics.
