Chapter 670: Shocking special effects!

The technicians Su Yang hired from other companies are actually capable. Otherwise, so many special effects of "Wolf Warrior" would not be able to do.
However, their strength really can only be regarded as average, even if they are carried by Su Yang, at most they are only at the domestic second-tier level, not even the first-tier. Su Yang needs to do all the key points.
This is not enough for Su Yang, who now has the [ultimate film and television post-production capabilities].
In addition, Su Yang now has the same level of [Fully Automatic Special Effects Production Server], and their role is even smaller.
However, Su Yang did not cross the river to demolish the bridge and dismissed them, but instead negotiated for them to transform from being responsible for all special effects to being the main special effects design.
This is actually equivalent to cutting half of their workload, which is a good thing for them. But...people are competitive.
Although Su Yang didn't say it clearly, they were asked to do only the early special effects design, and the rest of the special effects rendering was handed over to another team, which was obviously not at their level. So the special effects staff in the company felt uncomfortable.
They think that their strength is actually very good, and they have been improving. They are fully qualified for the special effects of "Wandering Planet" and can reach the level that Su Yang is satisfied with. Hope Su Yang can give himself a chance.
Su Yang couldn't help but agree with this group of persistent technical houses.
So the two sides decided to compete:
The special effects team of the film and television company and the "another special effects team of Su Yang" each made a special effects clip of "The Wandering Earth", and then competed to find out who had the best special effects. In the end, Su Yang and Guo Fan decided which clip to use, and whoever won.
Because of this fragment of the contract, the group of technical houses in the film and television company are quite eager, thinking they can win.
Su Yang's other team... well, it's himself, but actually there is not much pressure. As he has more and more virtual servers, he is trying to produce more and more special effect demos, and Su Yang has a more comprehensive understanding of his technology.
He knew for the first time... so he was so awesome!
Sometimes he himself is surprised, it turns out that "he" can make such outstanding special effects.
So he chose a very simple, but technical special effects clip, ready to represent "another team" and compete with the company's technical house.
Even... Su Yang was ready to explain afterwards which team did this clip.
He tried to make it through perfectly, and then put the film production of "Wandering Planet" on track.
The day of the competition came soon. On that day, all the production staff of the film and television company came to the company early.
They rarely changed into neat...checked shirts, then combed the few hairs on their heads, waiting for Su Yang's arrival.
While waiting, a few more active special effects staff were chatting quietly.
"You said we can win?"
"do not know..."
"I think it should be choking..."
Special effects personnel can actually be regarded as a kind of technicians, but the technicians are coding the codes, and they are coding the "hairs".
It is really coded with hairs, because they need to render the hairs frame by frame for special effects, and finally form a vivid character and animal.
For example, when a special effects artist makes a wolf, he needs to design the direction of its hair when it is moving, and what direction the hair is when it is stationary. These must be calculated in conjunction with fluid mechanics, and then rendered frame by frame. come out.
In the end, all the hair, limbs, and eyes formed a wolf and condensed into a lens.
The degree of boring and tedious work can even drive a technician crazy.
So most of the people who can be special effects producers are nerds: only living in a house can bear loneliness.
The minds of the otaku are relatively simple. They are not used to lying, thinking that one is one and two is two.
Their strength in the country is pretty good, but they are nothing compared to Su Yang.
But now Su Yang decided to use another team for special effects. They also knew in their hearts that if Su Yang was not 100% sure that the other party was better than them, he would definitely not make such a decision.
So even though their eagerness made them make this competition, they have no bottom in their hearts.
"Which team do you think Mr. Su is looking for? There should be few in China better than ours? I haven't heard of them taking over the job?"
"I do not know."
"Why don't you know anything?"
"Then you know, you say."
"I don't know. But I know we have to be ambitious. We can't be looked down upon by President Su. President Su has trained us for so long and encountered such a big project. If we were thrown off the car, we would regret it for life."
What the special effects staff said was what everyone said. Everyone is not a fool. When I first saw the project "Wandering Earth", I felt that the project was too big. The big... almost impossible.
But later when Guo Fan came with a piece of realistic props, they made a special effects lens design, and even after the first special effects demo, they gradually gained confidence.
I think this project is likely to succeed.
This is a domestic science fiction masterpiece that the whole film is shot with special effects! It is said that Mr. Su has invested a full 500 million!
Five hundred million! The current domestic box office champion "Thai 囧" is only 1.2 billion!
It's equivalent to losing money if you don't exceed "Tai囧"!
What an ambition!
This is a movie destined to be engraved in the history of Chinese cinema.
No special effects staff does not want to get involved.
That's why they are so competitive.
Just when a few people were discussing it, the vice president of the film company and the original director of the special effects department also came to the company. He came with the current head of the technical team. The two walked into the company and chatted easily.
The employee who had a good relationship with the two couldn't help asking, "President Fang, today is the day to bet with Mr. Su, why are you so relaxed?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang always couldn't help but smiled and said, "It's because today is the day to bet, that's why I am happy. I tell you, we may really win this time!"
The employee was surprised, "Really?"
President Fang nodded, "Of course it's true. You can watch it then."
Having said that, Fang Zong and the person in charge of the technical team went to the office, not knowing what was going on.
Those active tech nerds started to talk again.
"Have our President been under too much pressure recently?"
"I also feel so. He recently lost several hairs for the final composition."
"I left last night. Before I left, I saw him drinking and not eating in the office."
"He seems to have no food."
While several people were chatting, Su Yang and Guo Fan also came.
As soon as they entered the company, they immediately attracted everyone's attention, and everyone couldn't help but look at them together. Those active special effects personnel stopped talking, but secretly looked at Su Yang and Guo Fan.
Su Yang and Guo Fan smiled at each other, knowing that today is very important to these special effects personnel.
And Su Yang thought more. He is sympathetic to the group of technicians in his company.
They don't even know who they are competing against.
And... I'm both a player and a referee. How do they win?
Everyone arrived, so everyone packed up and went to the screening room together, ready to watch the videos of the two "teams".
The first screen was a video made by the special effects team of Jiadian Pictures.
Before the show, the project leader Fang Zong came up to explain. He said to the people below, "Mr. Su, Director Guo, the special effects clip our team made this time is in the movie "Wandering Planet". I think the design One of the best special effects clips."
"That's the first time the male and female lead came to the surface of the earth, and then saw the [turn to the propeller], a special effect shot to the end.
"When we designed this special effect, we first made the basic concept setting, made a total of 13 seconds of clips with a 3D model, and then made it with the company’s prop master and Director Guo. [Planetary Propeller], and even a miniature model of the Earth."
"Then first shoot the entire special effects shot, then render layer by layer of material particles, and finally form this set of special effects demos."
As soon as he finished saying this, the active special effects staff in the company were all exploded, and they were discussing in a low voice.
"The prop artist actually made a miniature model?"
"No wonder the party always said that it is likely to win! Having a model is not the same as not having a model!"
"Is this considered victory or martial arts?"
"How come. Prop making itself is also part of the special effects."
They were surprised, and other people in the company were also surprised. Obviously, Mr. Fang has been hiding this from everyone, and only some employees who participated in the modelling or final composite rendering knew it.
Those who are in charge of these two pieces of content are also enjoying the enviable and surprised gazes of other people in the company.
They are very proud of being a killer-level existence at this critical moment.
After Mr. Fang finished his explanation, he took out the hard disk copy of the ten-second fragment and played it.
For a moment, the special effects footage of this [Transformation Booster] was played on the screen.
While watching the clip on the big screen, Su Yang recalled the plot of this special effects clip.
This special effects clip is a clip where the protagonist and his party have just left the underground base and come to the surface of the earth. Then the heroine sees the huge propeller and asks the hero what it is, and then the hero explains it.
This clip is a very test of the level of special effects production.
Because it uses a bottom-to-the-lens lens design, starting from the [transformation propeller] on the ground, the lens is pushed up along the propeller ~EbookFREE.me~ to the planet's atmosphere, and again the lens is too high. , Has become a spectacular scene where thousands of propellers all over the world breathe fire together.
Generally speaking, the normal movie ends here.
But Guo Fan designed a higher sublimation.
After shooting the spectacular scene of thousands of propellers breathing fire together, he zoomed out again, pulled out the whole picture of the planet, and then pulled out the [Navigator Space Station] with a larger visual effect than the planet. Make a foreshadowing of the problem.
The whole special effects design is simply shocking.
When seeing the special effects script at that time, Su Yang felt that Guo Fan is really a talent, and he deserves to be born in comics. The lens of this design is absolutely stunning.
And now when this special effects clip appeared in front of my eyes, I witnessed this spectacular scene with my own eyes, and even after the details were perfected, even if this is the work of the "rival", Su Yang has to say that it is really wonderful. !
The whole special effects clip, although still a bit rough, has exceeded the special effects of most domestic movies, giving people a visual enjoyment of heartbeat.
