[Explanation] Tashi Qingpeng, a vocational school teacher and a documentary director, has more than ten years of documentary experience.
After studying in Beijing Film Academy and returning to Qinghai in his early years, Tashi Qingpeng made many award-winning Tibetan documentaries at home and abroad.
In the daily teaching, Zhaxi Qingpeng advocated that students should pick up more cameras, focusing on practicing shooting techniques and practicing composition and lighting.
After the students discover their own shortcomings through continuous practice, Tashi Qingpeng will supplement the corresponding theoretical knowledge for the students.
Tashi Qingpeng said that only in this way will students have a deep understanding and grasp of the techniques they have learned.

Because of the personal experience, (students) will be able to remember more deeply in the process of learning.
Because documentaries pay more attention to actual and real things, you can feel (camera) and operate (camera) in real life, in order to reflect the true beauty of a documentary.
[Explanation] Qinghai has vast and magnificent natural scenery and a variety of wild animals. It is a natural shooting place for all kinds of scenery documentaries.
Tashi Qingpeng's works focus on the specific people living on the plateau and their unique way of life, showing the changes and collisions of the living environment through the changes and development of people.
For example, in Tashi Qingpeng's work "Ganglamedo", the experience of three female students studying "beauty and hairdressing" from plateau pastoral areas is used as the entry point of the documentary, which shows the three students' experience in traditional and modern , the contradiction and struggle between ideals and reality, beliefs and interests.

What I pay more attention to is an inner change in the environment in which the characters are located, or an attitude towards the outside world for the people on our plateau.
[Explanation] Under the situation of the coexistence of traditional culture and modern multi-culture, social culture presents the characteristics of diversified coexistence and development, and how to grasp the balance between reality and art, documentaries reflect the changes and integration of the nation has also become a a profound subject.
As a Tibetan documentary director, Tashi Qingpeng has been learning and trying to express himself in a faithful record through various methods in recent years.
He wants to dig out the "light" hidden behind the truth from the unique perspective of his nation.
[Concurrent] Director Tashi Qingpeng
I think documentarians need some courage, because documentaries are used to praise after all, they record a real image, a real situation, so it may be a great difficulty for a documentarian to face this reality , because many real things are hidden underground without light, you have to capture this "light" through a documentary, and then illuminate it to others, even the hearts of others, or your own heart.
[Explanation] As a microcosm of thousands of worlds, the documentary not only shows the group of living beings, but also expresses the ideal pursuit of individuals, reflecting the various states of life and the passage of time.
Each documentary is inspired by the accumulation of trivial fragments of daily life, which are as precious as salt and as common as salt.
Tashi Qingpeng said frankly that documentaries are the experience and gathering of countless fragments of life, and creators should appreciate the precious "fragments" in their own lives, which are invaluable treasures of documentaries themselves.
[Concurrent] Director Tashi Qingpeng
Because you are in front of the camera, you can lie, but the camera can't lie, right, what it shoots is very straight-forward, because we live in a big world, there are many trivial things, we really go To experience every industry, every position, and even experience every kind of life, is to know how to capture your own characters, or to feel the experience of this life.
[Explanation] Whether it is a niche documentary or a popular drama, although it is rooted in the story line to promote the overall development and direction, Zhaxi Qingpeng believes that the most important thing in the film is to "tell the story well" and "tell the right story" ".
If the film wants to be recognized and disseminated, it must face the challenge of changing the communication context while adapting to the new current situation. The more important thing is to think in a global context, how to make more people Recognize films from the perspective of national culture in a popular environment.
[Concurrent] Director Tashi Qingpeng
It's a small world after all, because everything can be networked (connected), and all people live in a small world like a global village.
So in this case, the global context is very important, so your film does not reflect a small thing, but in a niche subject in a large context, there is a good methods and perspectives that people around the world can accept.
[Explanation] As a teacher of the film and television production course, Zhaxi Qingpeng hopes that the students can truly understand the truth, goodness and beauty expressed in the documentary. Although the students will choose different lives and careers in the future, they all hope that they can use their own What you have learned is truly passed on.
[Concurrent] Director Tashi Qingpeng
(I hope the students) learn the truth through documentaries, learn the beauty, learn the kindness in your heart, and feedback the kindness of others through your own kindness and beauty, or real things.
