Chapter 953: Record
Looking at her proud husband, Tang Jiayi suddenly said, "I have a problem!"
Atletico's eyes narrowed slightly, "Oh, ask!"
The former pointed to himself, "What about my face? Don't you want to take pictures and import the film? Why do you only have clothes and body shape from front to back?"
"Well," Atletico smiled, "there is, but you carelessly ignored it?????." COM”
This answer was not satisfactory, Tang Jiayi was about to continue to ask, but suddenly pointed to her eyes, "You mean in the eyes?"
"Yes!"
"Hmph!" said the lady, a little annoyed, "who would have nothing to do and look at themselves in other people's eyes?"
"It's not very common," Atletico nodded, "There was originally a plot of crying in the bathroom and self-scrutiny, which is also a routine used by Hollywood, but the trial effect was not very good, so it was cut." ”
"Oh?" Tang Jiayi was intrigued by his words, "What's the problem?
"Hmm!" Atletico confirmed her guess, "the photo modeling and real-time rendering are still not enough, resulting in the protagonist's expression appearing stiff and weird, which is easy to cause bad feelings and drama." ”
"Normal. Who hasn't been familiar with their own faces after watching them for decades since they were young? Arranging such a plot is indeed a bit thankless. It can be used to make horror games and thriller movies, and it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. ”
"That's true. ”
With her husband's approval, Tang Jiayi was not complacent, but exclaimed: "Eh, no!"
Looking directly at Atletico Madrid's gaze, she organized the language: "Scanning modeling, personal involvement, in order to enhance the audience's sense of substitution." But if you don't show your face during the whole process, relying only on your body shape and clothing style, the sense of substitution is generally high, but the cost is very high, is there still any point in this?
Depending on the focus, there are two directions for the development of VR films, one is a panoramic film similar to "roller coaster rescue", and the other is an interactive film similar to "false flight". The former lacks interaction, and compared with traditional films, it only expands the field of view, and can be pressed into videos for transmission, which has less conflict with the existing system. The latter is a text adventure game dressed in the skin of a movie, and the audience's reactions and choices will directly determine the final ending, and sometimes they can also "go into battle in person", with a strong sense of control and substitution.
However, there are gains and losses, and multi-line endings mean more complex scripts and more work, requiring more time and money. If you choose to bring it in, you also need real-time rendering technical support, which is more difficult, but the effect is not very good.
"That's right," Atletico nodded yes, "otherwise we wouldn't have turned 'Driving the Earth' into a panoramic video." This version of 'False Flight' still has a lot of flavor of drug rehabilitation textbooks, and if the official version for the public is launched in the future, the personal introduction function will be canceled, and only the interactive plot will be retained. ”
"I'm afraid it's deliberate, right? I kept it and brought it in person, just to show off the bee's 3D scanning technology. ”
"Of course, the smell of wine is also afraid of deep alleys," Atletico nodded and patted the headset, "Still can't you see it?" and "Go to the West again", "Orange", "Winter at Lake Tonne", ......
He was still counting the treasures, but Tang Jiayi couldn't wait to wave his hand to interrupt, "That's all?
Atletico spread his hands, "No, if it's limited to the Bee VR platform.?? One?? Reading · · COM”
"Then forget it, other works can't be seen. ”
"Winter" is a promotional video of the Swedish Tourism Agency's Northern Lights tour in Lake Torne, and the video has long been posted on the Internet, and she has already seen it.
"Going to the West Again" is a sequel to "Going to the West", which tells the story of Zheng He's second trip to the West, and she has also experienced it.
2015 is the 610th anniversary of Zheng He's voyage to the West, and Bee Mirage should help relevant departments produce a VR experience game called "iQue Zheng He's Treasure Boat", which was later polished and expanded into a panoramic movie "Voyage to the West" based on it. Now this "next down" is a new version of technology upgrades and content enhancements, but the main content has not changed much, and it is inevitable that her interest will soon shift.
As for "Orange", it is a third-party work, from war-torn Ukraine.
Orange is the color of the election campaign of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko, who was sent to the presidential palace in 2005 by his supporters wearing an orange ribbon, but led the already seriously ill country into an even worse abyss.
Because of the firm implementation of the policy of leaving Russia and joining Europe, Ukraine's relations with Russia have deteriorated rapidly, and the latter has repeatedly threatened to cut off the gas pipeline. Later, Yushchenko stepped down and was replaced by a new president, but the situation still did not improve, and the Crimea region forcibly became independent and took the initiative to join Russia, further intensifying the contradictions between the two countries. Ukraine, which was picked up and beaten by the former boss, did not wait for the support of the United States and Russia, but fell into a civil war, with pro-Russian factions in the east and pro-European factions in the west fighting fiercely, and the war has been ignited for three years.
The ancients said: Rather be a peaceful dog, don't be a chaotic person. The ongoing war has made the Ukrainian people suffer a lot, and some of the ideas and ideas they believed in before have also been shaken and collapsed, and this "orange" is the result of some people's reflection on themselves.
Tang Jiayi has not seen "orange", but she knows that there are many battlefield scenes shot with panoramic cameras, explosions, ruins, corpses, weapon wreckage, etc., and she has always resisted it. Like the Syrian civil war, both sides of the Ukrainian civil war are under the watchful eye of smartphone cameras, and there is no shortage of video footage.
Atletico was about to open his mouth to persuade again, when there was a sudden knock on the door in his ears, so he had to put down the topic and go over to open the door.
Outside was Pan Yicong, and when he opened the door, he handed over a stack of paper coupons, "Sir, this is a movie ticket that the boss wants!"
Stretching out his hand to take it, Atletico nodded slightly, "Thank you, shallots, go play!
With a few polite words, the female assistant ran away, and she also had a bunch of horror movies to watch. As a feast for independent films, the Sundance Film Festival has never lacked horror films, and she, a lover of plasma films, will not miss it easily.
Seeing her assistant running away, Tang Jiayi couldn't help but complain: "What are you doing in such a hurry? Aren't you afraid that you will have nightmares at night after watching too many horror movies?"
"If they really have nightmares, they will worry that they will wake up laughing and not see the second half. ”
"How thick a nerve does that have to be?" sighed casually, Tang Jiayi walked to Atletico Madrid's side and snatched the stack of movie tickets, "Let's go, go to the movie with me!"
These tickets are all prepared by her previous instructions to Pan Xiaolian, the film festival is coming to an end, the audience and the media's reputation has been basically finalized, as long as you search on the Internet, you can know a rough idea, just look for the film you are interested in.
But you don't have to worry about your own VR short films, you have a set of VR+ professional equipment at home, and you can watch it at any time if you want to. But these independent films will not work, and when the film festival is over, if you want to see it, you have to depend on the specific arrangements of the distributor. If you fail to sell the distribution rights, you can only lie in the warehouse and eat ashes, although it is rare, but it is not impossible.
Independent films refer to films that are free from the constraints of large companies, completely dominated by the filmmakers themselves, and reflect the personal thoughts and attitudes of the producers. Limited by the level of financing platforms and directors, this kind of film usually has the appearance of small production, low investment, and simplicity, as well as the internal nature of partial subject matter, strange casting, and diverse techniques.
Of course, there are many directors who are rich or greedy for money, there is no shortage of independent films shot by famous directors with big productions, and there are also works with commercial attributes that are good-looking and exciting for simple independent films. However, these two cases are a minority, excluding horror and astringency, which are direct to the senses and good at small and broad commercial themes, most independent films are still full of literary style and humanistic care.
In addition to the long-standing "black-and-white conflict", there are now more "innocent conflicts", and there are quite a few films that try to explore the possibility of building harmony under cultural differences. The first film that Tang Jiayi took Atletico to see was such a film that reflected the clash of religion and culture. The film had a good reputation, and Bee Film originally planned to buy the regional distribution rights, but was vetoed by Atletico Madrid.
endured until the end, and as soon as Atletico came out, he turned on the complaining mode: "You can never wake up the person who pretends to be asleep, this story is too wishful thinking." ”
Glaring at him fiercely, Tang Jiayi leaned over and bit his ear: "Could it be that more than a billion people are stupid?
"Of course, most people yearn for beauty, at least not murder, arson, robbery, and annihilation. However, the problem is that the religious symbols on their bodies are too obvious, and they will only be affected by a few black sheep, and they will bear the prejudice, vigilance and even hostile gaze of the world, and eventually evolve into discrimination and hostile policies at the national level. This kind of antagonism will hurt the feelings and interests of ordinary people, and lead ordinary believers to transform into new extremists, forming a vicious circle. I see no hope of reconciliation unless there is another Martin Luther Reformer who lifts the shackles of doctrine from secular life. ”
"Don't worry, don't worry!" stopped her husband's next tirade, and Tang Jiayi pulled him into another theater.
"I'll show you Wang Pian, this time I shouldn't be speechless, right?"
This time, what appeared on the screen was a feature film shot using documentary techniques called "The Life of Gao Fei".
Gao Fei is a smart, small, fearless male Chihua, this film began on the day he was born and continued until the death of the little male dog in a car accident, with a calm and slightly warm lens to record its ordinary, funny and short life.
Ever since the advent of portable cameras, owners have tried to use them to record their pets' daily routines. With the gradual popularization of digital video cameras and smartphones, this phenomenon became more common, and all kinds of meows and squeaks flooded the video network, which gave birth to a group of animal Internet celebrities, and Gao Fei was one of the veteran Internet celebrities who quickly lost his temper due to accidental death.
The film is based on selfie pet footage, but the structure and concept are a parody of the independent film "Bohood" released in 2014.
The film, written and directed by Richard Linklater, took 12 years to shoot from 2002 to 2014. It is said that it is 12 years, but it is actually 39 days in 12 years, and the lead actor Ella Coltrane plays the same age boy Mason in the film, and he, along with other actors, takes a few days a year to perform, and has been "acting" from the age of 6 to the age of 18.
The long production time and strong authenticity made the film popular and hotly discussed as soon as it was announced, and finally advanced to the Oscars and received multiple nominations. Although the plot is a little running and lacks dramatic tension, in the eyes of the audience, this is a nostalgic youth film that can be recalled, they watched themselves who played gamebo when they were children, watched Harry Potter when they were a little older, and came into contact with Apple mobile phones for the first time......
Despite the tragedy of the Oscars and the collapse of the hit, the film is still a success. And its success has inspired many people, including Gao Fei's owners.
He collected the dog images he had taken in the past few years, imitated Richard's approach, re-shot the shots, re-edited and restored the image quality, and made a "doggy version of boyhood". With exquisite editing and specially reshot shots, the film has moved away from the category of documentary and become more exciting and compact, yet real and intimate, which can easily awaken memories related to puppies and time, and is one of the most popular Sundance films of this year, with high audience popularity and sales of distribution rights very smoothly.
There is also a credit to Bee Film and Television, they bought the Chinese version of the film, intending to let it take over their own "Cat Wars!", and continue the pet trend on the big screen.
According to Atletico's idea, since he had bought the distribution rights, he could keep it and wait to go back to watch the Chinese version, but he couldn't stand his wife's urgency, so he reluctantly followed her into the screening hall.
Because of the use of home video cameras, the picture quality of this film is not very good, and the early shots are especially bad. Although it has been digitally restored and enlarged, forcibly increasing the resolution and color depth of the picture, it still looks like an old paleness, and compared with the "cat war" shot by professional equipment, it belongs to the proper Ivy image quality.
However, the audience seems to be quite comfortable with this, and the not very good picture quality is not a problem, but it gives the film a layer of "taste of time", which can be regarded as taking a big advantage by mistake.
Tang Jiayi stretched out her elbow and poked Atletico Madrid, "How much box office do you think it can have?"
"Do you think it's possible?" the latter asked rhetorically, feeling like his wife had asked a stupid question.
One is a commercial film and the other is a literary film, and the box office of the two is basically incomparable. Although there are also examples of literary films that make a lot of money at the box office, but in very few cases, because of the problem of the audience base, the box office of the vast majority of literary films will not be too high, and there are not a few who lose money, let alone make money.
