中国古代“光影魔术师”：一双手，让故事活起来

Shadow play originated in the imperial courts of the Han Dynasty (202 BC-220 AD) and is an art that relies on nothing more than a light source, a screen and a pair of hands to bring stories to life in creative ways.

皮影戏起源于汉朝宫廷，这种艺术形式仅借助光源、幕布和一双手，就能以富有创意的方式让故事“活”起来。

Each shadow's clarity depends on the angles of the fingers, and its size shifts with the distance from the light. By making slight adjustments with their hands, performers can create vivid and complex scenes. Masterful shadow play performances also combine vocal acting, sound effects and music, making shadow play a richly layered and immersive art form.

每个影子的清晰度由手指的角度决定，影子的大小则会随与光源距离的变化而改变。表演者通过双手的细微调整，便能呈现出生动而复杂的场景。技艺精湛的皮影戏表演还会融合配音、音效与音乐，使其成为一种层次丰富、极具沉浸感的艺术形式。
