Abstract

Shandong shadow puppetry, a national Chinese intangible cultural heritage (ICH), faces shrinking audiences and insufficient youth participation. Within digital humanities, ICH protection shifts from static archiving to living dynamic inheritance. As a mainstream youth art, street dance provides a feasible carrier for the innovative reconstruction of traditional puppet movement language. Based on morphological analysis and practical choreography creation, this paper sorts out three core movement features of Shandong shadow puppetry and explores three feasible paths integrating puppet movements into Popping, Locking and Hip-hop. The study summarizes the core contradictions of 2D-to-3D spatial conversion and style balance in cross-art fusion, combines a self-compiled dance case and small-scale audience field interview to verify fusion feasibility, and constructs a replicable innovation framework for ICH modern inheritance oriented to young groups under digital humanities.
