Chapter 2: Slaying the Dragon
However, although Avatar Zhuyu is in front, it has not caused a situation where domestic films and television are competing to use CG special effects.
First, the inherent thinking is difficult to change, and after using traditional special effects for so many years, it was suddenly renamed CG special effects, which is really inexperienced.
Second, the cost is too high, and the CG special effects are directly proportional to his price, which costs hundreds of thousands per second, and one or two minutes of CG special effects, so that you can smash tens of millions of dollars into it
In the case that the box office of top domestic movies is only hundreds of millions, the use of CG special effects is too risky, and if you are not careful, you will have to vomit blood.
Third, there is a generation gap between domestic CG special effects technology and Hollywood, even if it is a special effect like Avatar, it will take at least about 15 years to produce.
But these refer to others, for Jiang Bai, who has an entertainment system,
The life of the open hanger does not need to be explained!
Jiang Bai pressed his finger on the USB port of the computer, and a pop-up box popping up on the monitor that was transferring software.
The fans inside the computer console began to hum and spin rapidly, and the motherboard squeaked and overwhelmed the sound.
This computer is already the top configuration at this time, but it is still a little reluctant to carry the special effects production software given by the system.
However, at the last moment when it was about to crash, the software was transferred.
"Future technology, really strong, this kind of technology that has been eliminated is ahead of the earth for many generations!"
Jiang Bai skillfully manipulated the software, and sighed while looking at the model made by the special effects software.
Although it is only a primary film and television special effects production software, the models and picture effects produced are not inferior to the level of Avatar.
What's more, all the special effects production work can be done with just one software.
It only takes a few seconds from entering the requirements to completing the work.
This kind of program optimization means is unimaginable on the current earth.
Even for a professional film and television special effects production company in Hollywood, it takes a lot of time and resources to produce a CG.
With this software, the time is greatly shortened, and the resources are close to nothing!
"With this kind of technology, film and television production is basically at my disposal!"
Jiang Bai smiled, closed the software, and began to redeem the next product.
Junior directing skills: comprehensively improve the level of directing. Two hundred influences.
Jiang Bai has followed the crew for ten years, and has held all positions in the crew except for the director, and knows all the ways inside, which seems to be more awesome than the director.
But in fact, being a director and not being a director are just different.
There are many things that don't really stand in that position, and you don't have that feeling.
So he needs this skill.
A large wave of information poured into his mind, and Jiang Bai's eyes returned to clarity after a brief period of confusion.
Hundreds of directorial experiences of filming films have been integrated into his memory, becoming his experience, giving him a real understanding of the director.
At this time, he is no longer looking at the director in the fog, but really grasping it.
Give him a crew, you can get started in an instant, and the command is well organized.
Of course, it is limited to a small crew of no more than 100 people.
The system's classification of directors is mainly based on the director's ability to control the number of crew members.
Junior directors can control crews of less than 100 people, intermediate directors can control crews of less than 1,000 people, senior directors can control crews of less than 10,000 people, and top directors can control crews of less than 100,000 people.
It is said that there are god-level directors above the top, but that is already another system.
Maybe at that level, you can control the world and complete a large-scale shooting with a world as the carrier.
"The road has to be taken step by step, the control of the crew with less than 100 people is enough, anyway, the first movie, there is no big production. ”
Jiang Bai pressed his temples, which were a little sore because he had absorbed too many memories in a short period of time, and then took out a notebook.
Here's the script he wrote, Slay the Dragon!
Fifteen years ago, the Kyushu Demon Dragon flew through the sky, and the demonic flames it carried with it turned Liu Bai's entire family into ashes, and only Liu Bai escaped because he studied art in Qingyun Mountain.
Fifteen years later, Liu Bai, who has been successful in practicing the Xinghe sword, embarked on the road of revenge, breaking the demon army, fighting the demon lord, and killing the demon dragon!
A very simple story.
But it's a good fit.
As an old miscellaneous fish who has been engaged in film and television work for more than ten years, Jiang Bai knows very well that there is never a good or bad movie script, only whether it is suitable or not.
There are so many brain-dead movies in China, do you really think that they are all directors and screenwriters?
Even if they are really brain-dead, there are so many online novels with good plots on the Internet, won't they buy them?
Even if they can't buy it without money, won't they learn from it?
There are so many ways, why make a movie with a brain-dead plot?
What's even more infuriating is that the novel is very good, why do you have to adapt it into a brain-dead plot?
If a person does this, he can be said to be brain-dead.
But everyone does it, and it can only be said that there are necessary reasons to do it.
There are too many conditions that restrict a movie, the actors, the behind-the-scenes team, the funding, etc., and the script is really insignificant compared to these.
So a lot of excellent plots are gone, because the actors can't act.
A lot of big scenes are gone, because the production team can't shoot them.
Many investors ask for more drama for their own people, so the logic is messed up, and the plot begins to be brain-dead.
This is reality and must be compromised, otherwise the film will not be made!
is like the reality that Jiang Bai is facing now: insufficient ability, insufficient funds, and not many actors.
can only shoot small productions with few actors and a thin plot!
Fortunately, he has a plan for the future, and this movie was not originally the main plot.
The special effects are his selling point.
Taking advantage of the fact that the east wind of Avatar has not completely disappeared, before others have reacted, making a special effects blockbuster is definitely a weapon to harvest the box office.
So the script is simple and not scary, and the plot is thin, as long as there are enough battle scenes for him to use special effects to present a blockbuster full of visual impact to the audience.
Jiang Bai read the script again, this drama does not need many actors, except for the male and female protagonists, there are about more than ten other supporting roles.
"The heroine is actually easy to say, the heroine of this play doesn't have much plot, just find a vase and improve the appearance of the play. The key is the male lead, action special effects films, martial arts is the key, you must find an actor who can pass the martial arts action!" Jiang Bai rubbed his chin and thought.
……
Hengdian, West Wind Fierce crew.
The crew of hundreds of people is quite busy, but the expressions on most people's faces are still quite excited, this hard-core police film directed by Gao Qunshu and invested 30 million yuan has reached the final moment.
But when this film is released, these people may not be so happy.
