This film tells the story of a young girl named Chihiro. Her father got lost in her car and entered a mysterious tunnel. Chihiro tried to save her parents, and finally saved them with the help of Bailong.

The film uses a lot of sports expression techniques, especially the translation and movement of the lens are used more frequently. At the beginning of the film, the topic is introduced from the shaking lens, from Chihiro's car to the sky, to a treetop to the ground. When they enter the tunnel, from Chihiro and their parents to the tunnel exit, and after they leave the tunnel, the shaking lens is used to describe the environment outside the tunnel. This series of shocking shots is to show what Chihiro saw and felt, all of which are unfamiliar to Chihiro. The use of shaking lens just reflects these. In addition to using the shaking lens, there is also a moving lens. For example, when Chihiro is in the car, the scenery outside will move with him. And the tracking lens used by Chihiro when he walked to the oil house, which well showed the relationship between Chihiro and the surrounding environment.

In addition to sports expressions, the use of Jingbie in the film is also very vivid. At the beginning of the film, when the car drives into the forest, the panoramic lens is used to show the whole picture of the things to be displayed and the surrounding environment. Chihiro looked at the oil room. Chihiro showed her surprise when she saw her parents become pigs with close-ups, and compared her future hours with the middle shot. After Bailong took her to meet her parents, she cried bitterly when she was fed. Bailong was with her, as well as the close-up of her firm expression when she saved Bailong, and her fear that Bailong was curled up in the corner alone, and the joy when Bailong remembered his name. Through the rational use of the lens, it is well expressed.

When Chihiro's family went to the oil mill to smell the fragrance, Caojing divided the picture into two, forming a diagonal composition, which made the picture very dynamic. When Chihiro sees the sea, the horizontal composition of the horizon makes the picture quiet, open and broad. The vertical composition of Chihiro's white dragon blocking the paper bird gives people a strong, solemn and powerful feeling.

The use of the lens: when looking at the oil room, we used the overlooking lens to show the mystery and height of the oil room, and Tang's reaction from the perspective of overlooking. At this time, he showed Tang her position and her strength with his backhand. On Chihiro's way to save the White Dragon, Chihiro shows her environment with the overhead lens. When Chihiro looks out of the car, at the end of the film, she shows her emotions with a flat lens.
