"Is this a model of a triceratops?"

Wang Meng looked at the model with bright eyes. The pen is followed by Gu Gaoyi and a head of the digital field, Jackson, www.biquge.info.

"Yes, Director Wang, it's very beautiful, look! It's so skinny, if it is paired with special effects, he will definitely surprise the world." Jackson said.

This Jackson is Gu Gaoyi's old friend, this person has a scruffy beard and is a little sloppy.

However, as Gu Gaoyi said, this person is crazier than him, and he is a third-generation prop family.

After this generation had more advanced special effects, he began to focus on the production of model special effects, and belonged to the well-known masters in the special effects industry.

"Very good, I hope these ancient monsters can shock the world. Wang Meng nodded.

Looking at the huge production room, there are many dinosaur skeletons, although some have just had skeletons, and some only have one part.

But after seeing the first model they made, Wang Meng was very satisfied.

These big guys will be filming with the actors in the studio.

Of course, pure special effects can also be made, and there is no need to make models, but the models will be more textured.

With the addition of special effects, it can make a big difference, and it can reduce the production of special effects, and these models can also be placed in the theme park after shooting.

Of course, the biggest purpose is to save time.

After all, special effects take time.

It's all about special effects, not to mention the texture, and the time is also very long, with these models, you can actually present the design drawn on paper.

To sum up......?

[The biggest significance of these models is not shooting, but reference, and subsequent display value.] 】

These models are created for reference and will be displayed in future promotions. There are very few people who actually use filming.

You should get the idea.

It's just that Wang Meng's personal request is that in order to keep improving, things that can be made with special effects should be made, but real models must be made, and these models use the biggest point of shooting: that is, the data of special effects and the simulation of actors with physical objects.

Take "Avatar" as an example, in "Avatar", 60% of the computer animation scenes and 3,000 stunt shots are unprecedented.

In the studio, the actors wear marked tight-fitting lycra suits, which are recognizable by 102 cameras on the roof of the studio, and in the hats that cling to their scalps, there are small cameras that can image their faces.

There are no jungles, no monsters, no aliens, the actors are doing a show without opponents, and in the lens of director Cameron, the live performance of the actors, and the CG footage of the aliens can be presented synchronously and seamlessly, generating interaction. This "synchronized lens" technology is exactly what Cameron has been waiting for for years.

And Wang Meng will still use these techniques, and he will shoot like this.

But don't forget how much time Cameron spends, and the 20 minutes of continuous special effects footage in the film "exhausted his 14 years of hard work". Of course, this is the time to wait for the technology to mature.

Now it's ripe.

But. Although it is mature, this kind of high standard requirements for actors, it does not take a long time, and it cannot be perfectly synchronized.

Moreover, data is data, and the production of special effects cannot be made by looking at the data, and it needs to be corrected a little bit, maybe just a dinosaur tail, and the special effects data needs to be changed hundreds of times.

In that case, it would be difficult for a Jurassic World to be completed in more than a year.

It's a pity that Wang Meng lacks time.

You can only make models, and then you have the accurate data, and then you can make those models into special effects. This can reduce a lot of time.

In addition, these models allow actors to 'live-action' simulations, which can be more proficient when it comes to shooting synchronization, which also reduces a lot of time.

In the end, these models can be made into a model of a theme park, and don't forget that Wang Meng also has a stake in the 'Sunday Theme Park'.

Don't think that a special effects movie is so simple, the click is done, and the braggadocio can't be exaggerated to this extent.

Of course, it's easy for you to get some five-cent special effects, but it's not what Wang Meng wants.

A special effects movie mainly depends on how many special effects shots he has, and if there are many special effects shots, it will naturally take a long time.

Take Wang Meng's "Jurassic World" as an example, in which computer animation scenes account for 68%, and there are more than 1,800 special effects.

Don't look at the computer animation scenes, but there are few special effects shots.

After all, the length of the film is not the same, "Avatar" is a nearly three-hour movie.

Wang Meng's "Jurassic World" is more than two hours at most.

Now the model is being made, the animation scene is also being made, and when the animation scene is completed, it will be shot simultaneously with the actors.

Among them, the special effects are also being produced, and everything will wait for June, after the plot of "The Matrix" Wang Meng is almost filmed, Wang Meng will immediately produce "Jurassic World", with the synchronization of actors and special effects.

It can be said that "Jurassic World" has already started production, but it is just that the actor has not been found yet.

Don't be incredible, in fact, this kind of special effects movie is like this, the actor is very important, but it does not account for a large proportion, and the real scene of the framing will also start to be filmed around, and the special effects will be synthesized after framing.

In short, it's definitely a hassle.

Fortunately, the dream is his own, and the group of people led by Gu Gaoyi know how to progress the work.

James Cameron's "Avatar" team is also familiar with the technology used, building first and then shooting, everything is in order.

Wang Meng has read every detail many times and is relieved.

After four or five days in the special effects crew, Wang Meng learned a lot.

Number 15.

Wang Meng watched the finishing work of "Xu Xiake's Ancient Mirror", "Xu Xiake" is expected to be completed in a few days, and the special effects are in production as early as the beginning of filming, and it is expected that the post-production will be completed at least in May.

The publicity department of DreamWorks has discussed with the film scheduling department, and it is expected to be released in mid-June.

And "Kung Fu Panda", which has been in production for more than a year, is still being produced in the old base of the dream. It is expected to be completed in two months at the latest, and the film scheduling department plans to release it in July, or early August.

Wang Meng spent a morning checking "The Ancient Mirror on Xu Xiake", which was in the late stage, and spent half a day watching "Kung Fu Panda".

These two works were very difficult to make, but they finally came to an end.

In particular, the production of "Kung Fu Panda" for more than a year can only be produced in more than a year if it is necessary to increase manpower and cooperate with external parties.

At that time, it was expected that it would take at least three years to make this animated movie by Dream Special Effects.

Fortunately, there are enough funds to grit your teeth and make it, but it is expected that the production cost of 80 million US dollars will rise to at least 100 million US dollars.

Except for these three, the other Wang Meng didn't care.

Horror master Liu Zhiyuan, who had nothing to do for a while, made a small-scale horror film, and got the script by himself. Wang Meng didn't know what this guy could come up with.

Ning Hao also started the filming of his "No Man's Land".

The TV version of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" filmed last year has been broadcast, and the response has been quite good, and it has also pioneered the synchronization of online broadcasting and TV broadcasting.

The movie version of Wu Ershan has also begun to be produced, but this guy is very slow, very slow? quite calm.

Xu Zheng plans to act in a few movies first. After the success of "People in Embarrassment", this guy is currently uninspired.

Wang Meng did not inform him of "Thai Embarrassment" in advance.

The first is that he is too busy to take care of it, and the second is that at this point, there is really no need to plan the future for others. Let them develop freely.

Besides, I was a little too obsessed before.

What he wanted before was to change the situation of Chinese films on his own.

So I always make scripts for others, and I always feel that I am a 'virgin'.

However, I slowly thought about it, how much did I write the script by myself?

You can't just do nothing and write scripts for others all day long, right?

Just make a few of them like that, and it's all over the place!

Unless the brain-dead are so brain-dead that one person writes hundreds, then it won't be far from being sliced.

It's better to 'let go and fly', make some sensational ones yourself, and then let others eagerly want to be like you, instead of licking your face and sending the script to beg them: - shoot, shoot, make Chinese films strong.

It's not really powerful, it's an illusion that you've piled it up.

Or make a sensation yourself and let them learn from the experience. People, desire and blushing are shortcomings, but it cannot be denied that sometimes they are not bad, at least they will make people motivated.

It's much better to think about change than to force them to change yourself.

At the very least, China is very different now.

Besides, make a name for yourself, play a leading role, and slowly use your own movies to launch 'Made in China' actors, so that they can slowly go to the world.

Let the world see the existence of Chinese filmmakers.

Then, during the shooting, I brought up a group of China's top production teams.

Wang Meng believes that when the eye sockets are high and the realm is high, then these people will slowly change themselves.

The role of the leader is actually crucial.

Moreover, it also has a world-class company, a world-class special effects company, a world-class comic company, and even a world-class publicity media and a world-class cinema in the future.

With so many world-class people, if you can't bring a group of top filmmakers who belong to the best in China, then it is better to simply quit this business and write novels...... Ahem...... (To be continued.) )
