Chapter 1935 Static is more difficult

 It’s all about questioning Enron.

Whether it's in the entertainment industry or on the Internet.

Especially on Xizhou's famous program "Ten Thirty Tonight", a director sneered at Ange's approach.

"Tonight at 10:30" is a relatively long-lived talk show on the Basic Channel of Diss TV.

After doing this for more than ten years, I would invite a guest every week to comment on current affairs and hot topics.

After Enron announced that "Game of Thrones" would use 95% CG animation for background production, the matter became very popular.

Although computer special effects have developed very rapidly in recent years, and are widely used in movies and television.

But no one is brave enough, and 95% of the scenes are post-produced.

This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world.

The guest on the show is veteran Xizhou director Larison.

Larison made two very famous movies ten years ago.

It was a hit at the time, but later on I don’t know if my talent was exhausted, and the few movies I shot afterwards were all lukewarm.

But if you call it a loss, it’s not a loss at all.

But if you want to make money, you don’t make much money, so you can only be considered a second-tier director.

There are still movies coming out from time to time, but the attention is not very high.

"Mr. Larison, you have been working in the film and television entertainment industry for more than 20 years. What do you think of Enron's claim that 95% of the scenes are post-production?"

Larison already has a head full of white hair and his beard is also white.

Wearing a pair of sunglasses, she looks very fashionable.

Sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, "If this isn't Enron hype, then I can tell you that this is a bad movie!"

"Why are you so sure about Mr. Larison?"

"Although people are now widely using computer-generated special effects in film and television dramas, and some have even reached the point of being lifelike, please note... this method is not used in all scenes!"

"Computer synthesis production still has its own limitations!"

"For example, some big scenes with a lot of background things, or explosion attack scenes, these can be produced with computers without any problem!"

The host asked: "Why?"

Larison said with a smile: "Because such a scene is inherently chaotic. A big explosion and how many pieces of things are flying everywhere will make the audience dizzy and have no time to distinguish what is real and what is fake, especially the details.

, will be swept away, and you can’t see clearly at all..."

"And special effects production is much cheaper than real explosion scenes..."

The host nodded, "Then you mean that the background is not suitable?"

"For us, relatively static things are not suitable to be made with computers. They cost a lot of money and have little effect. This is a very stupid thing!"

The audience below also nodded one after another, feeling that what An Ran said was unreliable.

Although An Ran has filmed many good dramas, it is also because of this that he is so whimsical that he wants to use this method to produce TV series.

But experienced seniors like Larison say it’s not suitable, so it’s definitely not suitable.

"Mr. Larison, can you tell me what is inappropriate? Why are relatively static scenes not suitable?"

Larison said: "It's very simple. Do you think the audience below is relatively static when it comes to movies and television?"

The host nodded.

Larison said: "The details of the explosion scene don't need to be rendered so seriously, but what if I want to render a special effect for the audience?"

"I don't think it will be more difficult than the explosion shot..."

"You're wrong, it's hard to return this awesome explosion scene!"

"Ah?"

There was an exclamation of exclamation from the bottom, and everyone couldn’t figure it out. Isn’t it more difficult to do things dynamically?

Larison said: "First of all, there are hundreds of people down there, and you need each face to be different, which is a troublesome thing..."

As soon as everyone heard it, they understood immediately.

In order to show the scene in movies and TV shows, hundreds of people appear below, and close-up shots are inevitable. At least in the audience, it is impossible for everyone to have the same face, which requires a lot of effort.

"The details of each person's face need to be carefully sculpted, plus everyone's expressions and everyone's micro-movements, all of which are troublesome!"

"You can't have everyone with a blank face, smiling or serious, or thinking, or something else. This all requires post-production to create a vivid look!"

Supporter: "No wonder Mr. Larison said that static is more difficult than dynamic. What if it is to depict the background?"

"The background is even more troublesome!"

Larison seemed like an expert, "If you are in a forest, you have to consider whether it is in the north or the south. The types of trees in the north and south are different, and then the details of each tree, such as the leaves and trunks..."

"You can't make him completely still, he has to be in a state of shaking leaves..."

"In general, if the background needs to be synthesized with computer special effects, pay more attention to details!"

"Because the things presented are relatively simple, the audience can easily see if there are any problems. The technology is not more difficult, but the details need to be more serious and careful!"

Everyone nodded frequently after hearing this, they are experts.

Of course, if you just fool people, no one will care, but if you want to make money, you can't fool the audience.

It claims to invest 15 million per episode!

If you spend so much money and the scene you create is unsatisfactory, not only will no one watch it, but you will also be criticized badly.

Larison seriously criticized the TV series Enron as useless.

In short, even if you have a good script, good actors, and a good director, it is too unreliable if you do the whole post-production scene.

Doomed to suffer losses and failure.

An Ran, who was watching TV, was speechless. This is so crazy. How could you not know it without even watching it?

"300" was very popular when it came out.

But it doesn’t matter, the people of Xizhou are different from the people on earth, and they feel a little suspicious of everything.

Anyway, he is used to squirting.

No matter who says it, it doesn’t matter.

After Larison’s show, there were a lot of doubts and disapproval voices on the Internet.

An Ran said nothing.

I started to concentrate on preparations and dived into the props team.

This is a medieval fantasy work, with dragons and ghosts in it.

Post-production is indispensable, but the clothes and armor cannot be neglected. An Ran must participate in it personally.

In addition, for the special effects team invited from China, An Ran specially found a special effects master from Xizhou to lead the team and cooperate with each other to learn from each other in order to improve everyone's special effects production level.

You must know that there is no shortage of good scripts in Xiazhou now, but the special effects team in post-production is unsatisfactory.

Fortunately, Enron has money and doesn't care about investment. It just needs to keep improving...

After nearly two months of intense preparation!
Chapter completed!
