在这个引人入胜的冰雕挑战中，著名冰雕师冈本慎太郎将带领观众体验冰雕艺术的演变，从传统手工工具到现代的电动工具，再到计算机数控技术，他将为我们揭示冰雕创作的神秘魅力。伴随着不同复杂程度的雕刻，冈本将用冰块讲述一个个美丽的故事，揭秘冰雕这一冬日艺术之美。
My name is Shintaro Okamoto, I'm an ice sculptor.
Today I've been challenged to create an ice sculpture in 10 levels of increasing complexity.
So today we're making three sculptures.
First with hand tools only, then with power tools, and then lastly with use of computers and CNC.
Angelfish has been a kind of historical design within the ice sculpture community, and it's something that I think is familiar shape enough and interesting shape enough to really kind of expand into.
So the concept of sculpting itself will remain constant, removing the excess material around the design, refining the dimensional shape, and then finishing with details.
This can be approached in many different ways.
For this project, I just simply wanted to break it in terms of the lineage of technology.
Now, this is a fishbowl mold, and this is not what we'll be making today.
First, we gotta talk about the material, the ice.
