Personality assessment

In the film "Zootopia", directors such as Byrne Howard perfectly combined the three themes of politics, inspiration and ecology through careful arrangements, which made the audience deeply understand the philosophy of life, which was also the key factor for the success of the film. It not only brought countless happy moments to the audience, but also triggered people's profound reflection on political, inspirational and ecological themes. Moreover, the film adopts the brilliant art of action production in film and television production, which gives Bourne Howard and other filmmakers more dream space. At the same time, the creative attitudes and methods of directors such as Bourne Howard, which are full of scientific spirit, are also worth pondering by China film practitioners (a comprehensive review of Journal of Jiangxi University of Science and Technology, Western Radio and Television).
