Chapter 1102: Special Effects
There are still some ratings of "Best Acting", after all, everyone invited popular stars.
But it is basically impossible to make a profit with "Best Acting".
Beijing TV is not the wronged leader, and it was not bought in the form of a buyout of "Best Acting", but the advertising sharing model adopted.
Now, this kind of cooperation has become a smart move.
"Best Acting School" is inevitable to hit the street, unless there is a major revision, and "Best Acting School" is changed to the kind of program that is entertained to death, instead of the current one, obviously under the banner of professionalism, but the result is selling dog meat on the head of a sheep.
On the one hand, there are real artists with acting skills, and the first choice is naturally "The Birth of an Actor", even if it needs to be numbered, even if it needs to be a round of offline PK, but as long as it can be on this show, it will basically be more than half of the success.
"The Birth of an Actor" judges and artists began to change constantly.
The actors who participate in this show, as long as they can pass one episode, are huge successes, and the competition is extremely fierce.
And soon "The Birth of an Actor" has an unwritten rule, that is, as long as they participate in this show, during the participation in the show, during the rehearsal, the artists must suspend other announcements.
Because you don't do this, first of all, in the eyes of the judges, points will be deducted, and secondly, your opponent is not weaker than you at all, an excerpt of the clip, even if your acting skills are good, but it is also inferior, so, if people work hard, then they can do it naturally better than you.
Moreover, there is no specific standard for the judging method of "The Birth of an Actor", which is the weirdest thing.
Even, the directors and judges often quarrel offstage because of their different understandings of the details of a certain scene.
However, Lin Xiao, Yang Hao and others basically have no energy to continue to pay attention to "The Birth of an Actor".
Although Lin Xiao started preparing for the scene he was going to shoot this time, the Aurora special effects had already started to create some models of the movie.
Yes, Lin Xiao's new movie is a monster movie.
When it comes to special effects movies, we have to mention monster movies, because monster movies are naturally special effects movies.
Monster movies, in fact, many people in China have tried them, but the results are not so ideal, on the one hand, cost constraints.
If you want to make a good monster movie, special effects are indispensable, in fact, many tomb robbery and exploration films, there are many monsters in them, but this cannot be said to be a monster movie.
Monster movies, as the name suggests, either the protagonist is a monster or the villain is a monster, at the very least, the monster needs to be one of the themes of the whole film.
In Lin Xiao's monster movie, one of the protagonists, or rather, the protagonist is not a human!
Ahem, don't get me wrong, literally.
However, the heroine of this film has already been decided, and it is Xu Qianqian!
When he got the script, Xu Qianqian was a little stunned.
This is completely subversive from the movies she has seen or made in the past.
It can be said that Lin Xiao's new film is the real "Beauty and the Beast".
It's not that there is no male protagonist in the movie, but compared to the male protagonist and the monster, it is too far behind.
can only be regarded as a soy sauce character, this is a real movie of beauties with beasts, and the description in it makes Xu Qianqian a little crying and laughing.
However, even so, Xu Qianqian was still attracted by the story of the script.
The story is actually not too complicated, and the standard commercial film is also originally, a monster movie, with an investment of more than 100 million US dollars, if it is made into a literary film, it will not be killed?
Xu Qianqian could only sigh that Lin Xiao was worthy of Lin Xiao, it was simply a whimsical idea.
Obviously, there is a feeling of love between man and beast, but why is there no sense of disobedience at all? On the contrary, when he saw the end, Xu Qianqian's eyes were wet.
Lin Xiao makes movies, and his speed is notoriously fast.
Well, how do you say it? He's a man with a cheat, and of course, that's not without a good team.
For example, the aurora special effects are the top priority of this movie.
In the past, although the Aurora special effects also did some similar special effects, but in a monster movie like this, the special effects based on monsters are applied on a large scale, and the aurora special effects are also the first time.
The same is in the process of exploring.
Although, many domestic media have been reporting that the technical level of Aurora special effects is no less than that of Hollywood's top special effects companies.
But in fact, the aurora special effects may have reached the point where they are on par with the world's top special effects companies in some aspects, but because of the lack of restrictions in domestic film genres, the shortcomings of the aurora special effects are also obvious.
For example, the model special effects of monster movies, although they have entered the CG era, many times the application of models is still popular.
No way, CG is too expensive.
And the effect, at present, there is no way to really match the Aurora special effect to Hollywood.
So for the aurora special effect, this is also a challenge, and of course, it is also a rare opportunity to practice.
Usually, when a special effects company receives a special effects order for a movie, it first needs to know the director's idea, and then think about how to realize it.
There are some things that can be achieved with off-the-shelf technology, but there are some things that need to be implemented by developing new special effects software.
And that's the difference in value for money in terms of special effects.
At present, the special effects of many domestic movies are not too demanding, and only some special effects software developed before can be realized.
But like the movie that Lin Xiao wants to make, it won't work.
It's not that this special effects technology is not mature enough, but this special effects technology is very mature on the side of special effects companies in North America, because they have a lot of technical accumulation.
But in China, the technical accumulation of Aurora special effects in this area is a little worse, the reason is very simple, there are not many monster movies in China at all.
Of course, if you want to do it faster, it's actually very simple, just go to a foreign special effects technology company and buy a copy of the special effects production software they have developed.
But if that's the case, then the Aurora effect will never be able to make great strides in this area, let alone catch up with them.
Today, Lin Xiao came to accept the success, as early as half a year ago, Aurora Special Effects began to develop a new set of special effects software for Lin Xiao's new movie.
And according to Lin Xiao's requirements, a short clip was made.
"Let's get started. Lin Xiao stood in front of the computer and said.
Soon the picture appeared on the computer's huge LCD monitor.
It was a giant beast tens of meters high, rampaging through the streets of the city.
Sometimes they climb quickly to the top of tall buildings, sometimes they jump from one building to another.
I don't know why this picture reminds Lin Xiao of another movie, well, the role of the Hulk in Marvel.
