People have to deeply understand their own culture to be able to share it with others, Yip Kam Tim – a visual artist, art director and costume designer – told CGTN in "Cinematic Eye on Chinese Civilization." At the same time, people have to understand what makes other cultures tick such as the cross-cultural aesthetic of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." He added that the complexity of a character should not build on the style, but rather give creative space for the actor, and then things happen naturally on film.
