英語視頻：85屆奧斯卡動(dòng)畫短片《紙人》

Introducing a ground-breaking technique that seamlessly merges computer-generated and hand-drawn animation techniques, first-time director John Kahrs takes the art of animation in a bold new direction with the Oscar-nominated short, "Paperman."

這是一次獨(dú)創(chuàng)性的技術(shù)：將電腦生成和手繪動(dòng)畫天衣無縫的合二為一，第一次，導(dǎo)演約翰·卡爾斯的動(dòng)畫短片《紙人》以這種大膽新穎的動(dòng)畫形式奪得了奧斯卡提名(注：該片隨后被評(píng)為第85屆奧斯卡最佳動(dòng)畫短片)。

Using a minimalist black-and-white style, the short follows the story of a lonely young man in mid-century New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office.

運(yùn)用極簡抽象派藝術(shù)的黑白風(fēng)，這部短片講述的是一個(gè)居住于中世紀(jì)紐約市的孤獨(dú)年輕男子，在他通勤的一個(gè)早晨遇見了一個(gè)美麗的女子，隨后他的命運(yùn)發(fā)生了出乎意料的轉(zhuǎn)折。本深信他日思夜想的女孩再也不會(huì)出現(xiàn)了，第二次，就在街道的對(duì)面，他從自己的辦公室看到了對(duì)面摩天大樓窗口里那個(gè)女孩的身影。

With only his heart, imagination and a stack of papers to get her attention, his efforts are no match for what the fates have in store for him. Created by a small, innovative team working at Walt Disney Animation Studios, "Paperman" pushes the animation medium in an exciting new direction.

他全心全意的，想象著，拿一堆文件想贏得她的注意，但是他的努力辜負(fù)了命運(yùn)為他安排的邂逅。由迪士尼工作室一小支充滿創(chuàng)意的團(tuán)隊(duì)制作的《紙人》，推動(dòng)了動(dòng)畫媒介朝新的、令人興奮的方向發(fā)展。

練習(xí)提示：這部影片全程沒有臺(tái)詞，那我們要怎樣通過這部片子學(xué)習(xí)英文呢?介紹大家一個(gè)好方法：通過觀察片中人物的神態(tài)，揣摩他們的心情，以自己創(chuàng)造發(fā)散臺(tái)詞的形式“補(bǔ)完”這個(gè)關(guān)于愛的小故事。你可以把想到的對(duì)話寫在紙上。這里給出例文一篇，大家對(duì)照著練習(xí)吧!
