At the closing ceremony of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, there was a performance called "Eight Minutes in Milan". At the beginning of the performance, two people pushed a big globe into the venue. The place where the globe rolls is a displayable screen, which is full of science and technology. When the globe rolls on the screen floor, the screen floor shows the picture of ice breaking, accompanied by the sound of ice breaking, and then a suspended snowflake icon appears above the venue. At this moment, when the picture turned, two foreign young people, a man and a woman, appeared. These two foreign young people are dressed in white. This white dress seems to feel like leather pants, which is a bit stiff, giving people an uncomfortable feeling that clothes and pants are hard. Speaking of these two young people, one is running on the snowy mountain, and the other is running in the city. The picture is just cut over and over again, which dazzles me. Finally, two foreign young people got together on the screen and began to dance, jumping around for a long time. Two big numbers 26 appeared in the picture, followed by the icon of the next Winter Olympics. Then the picture was repeated, and many people waved their hands in Milan and other foreign cities.
Personally, I don't think there is anything amazing about the whole performance. The only thing I feel is the screen floor in the venue, which is really high-tech. With such a large screen floor, you can change the pattern with the steps of the dancers, making people feel as if they are there. There is also a snowflake icon hanging above the venue, which is also very beautiful. I don't know how to do it. It's really technical. There are also pictures of two young people running hard, switching from snow-capped mountains to cities and pushing them down from tall buildings. At that time, I was a little dizzy, and the whole person seemed to fall from the roof, which was very shocking. The feeling of people just arriving here immediately cut the picture to the top of the mountain, which has a strong visual impact. After a few rounds, my brain buzzed and I saw flowers in front of me.
Eight minutes to introduce Milan
1. What is Milan Eight Minutes?
On February 20, 2022, at the closing ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics, Italy, the host country of the next Winter Olympics, produced an eight-minute performance, called Milan Eight Minutes for short.
Second, the theme idea
The theme of Milan's eight minutes is the union of the two cities, which means that the Italian Winter Olympics in 2026 will be held by Milan, Nadal Pezzo and Corthie, so the eight-minute picture of Milan is cut again and again between the two cities.
Three, Milan eight minutes overview
First, two young people push a big globe, then two foreign young people run between the snow-capped mountains and the city, then two foreign young people dance in the venue, and finally the picture ends with people all over the world celebrating the 2026 Winter Olympics.
Milan's eight-minute performance is full of science and technology. Personally, I think the performance itself has a strong visual impact, but I don't think it is amazing.
