The cinematography, while pretty, is quite conservative - except when Runyu is losing his emotional control, whereupon suddenly there's Dutch Angles and circling cameras and such. As the future Emperor of Heaven, when Runyu ain't happy, the universe ain't happy.
Another cinematographic example of the above, is the Dolly Zoom when Runyo is about to perform forbidden magic to save Jin Mi.
In a conversation with Xu Feng, where she's once again pleading for him to marry her, Sui He gets a spinning/rotating camera effect to emphasize her emotional distress over her inability to connect with him.
When the astrologer, Immortal Yuanji claims that promoting Grape Fairy Jin Mi straight to Immortal would bring about calamities for Heaven Realm & likely all 6 realms, it initially seems like this is merely a ploy by Heavenly Empress Tuyao. Several episodes later, you start to suspect that Yuanji was actually just doing her job in warning that Jin Mi would be a destabilizing influence. It becomes more and more clear, that she's involved in Star-Crossed Lovers relationship that sends all the realms into chaos.
