The luminous stone emits a glowing white light, blending into the sunlight swaying in from the skylight, intertwining with Han Li (Tang Nian). Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

More than a dozen crystal-clear prisms formed a strange pattern around Han Li.

Except for the futon that emanated a ghostly light under Han Li's body, the entire secret room was empty.

Han Li, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, put on a posture of meditating with his heart facing the sky, and the strange gesture of his thumb pointing at the second link of his middle finger also appeared on Han Li's left and right hands.

Minutes and seconds passed until the sunlight outside the skylight turned to moonlight.

Until the moonlight gets thicker and thicker......

"If you don't use computer CG special effects, this is just the most ordinary meditation of Taoism or Buddhism!"

Lao Cheng looked at the so-called 'cultivators absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, carrying out the Great Zhou Tian cycle, and improving their cultivation' in the lens, no matter how you look at it, you can't see a trace of fairy wind bones.

If this thing has no special effects, it is at best the same nature as the meditation of the temple and Taoist temple.

Compared to yoga, there is no spectacle at all.

"In Mr. Jin Yong's martial arts drama, at this time, Tang Nian's head should be full of smoke, like steaming in a sauna, foggy, this is like practicing gonggong!"

Director Zhang sat in front of the monitor, and couldn't think of how to use special effects to show the taste of 'Xiuzhen' for the shot in front of him.

The Chinese warm jade market has developed to this day, and various types of TV dramas can be produced, and costume fantasy dramas have also broken through the limits of imagination again and again, creating some eye-catching scenes and prop elements.

But the architecture of the costume fantasy drama still can't make a breakthrough in the structure of the force system.

Either it's a few starting styles of health swordsmanship, and the post-production special effects are added to forget it, or it's blindly imitating European and American special effects in terms of weapons, what laser weapons, what magic canes.

The highest level of its martial arts drama is a high-end martial arts drama.

Everyone knows that a breakthrough is needed in this area, but how to break through, in which direction, and those who do the special effects industry are still in a state of confusion.

The most typical representative of Edgeworth Flying and Edgeworthy is the Flying of Edgeworth in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy I" and the Return of Ten Thousand Swords in "Fengyun", the former is like surfing, and the latter is pursuing a large-scale scene of ten thousand arrows, which are also nothing new.

The pictures of meditation and cultivation are all fleeting, except for the madness and sighting, none of the audience wants to watch a posture with their eyes crossed for several minutes, during the broadcast of the TV series.

"How about we simulate the circulation of blood in the blood vessels to show the operation of the 'Changchun Gong' Great Zhoutian?"

Tang Nian was also a little worried for a while.

Finally, at this time, the flaws of 'Huangliang One Dream' were exposed.

That is, although Tang Nian substituted the protagonist Han Li in the way of 'personal experience' and experienced everything in the script, Tang Nian knew how to portray the role of 'Han Li' in front of the camera, and even the scenes of meditation and cultivation could be interpreted by Tang Nian without a bad point.

But in reality, filming can only collect pictures and sounds, and the kind of internal cultivation exercises that cannot be produced by special effects personnel at all.

Because they can't imagine what kind of state the characters are in when the cultivation of the true cultivation method is running, they just sit quietly and upright, without any external characteristics at all, how can they create?

Not only is the cultivation process of a cultivator unable to be intuitively expressed, but even the intuitive feeling of the expansion of the scope of divine consciousness (primordial spirit) perception and the intelligence of the ears and eyes after the cultivator's breakthrough in the practice is not a better form of intuitive expression.

These are the so-called 'costume fantasy dramas' that cannot get rid of the shackles of the current special effects.

In short, the European and American entertainment markets have reached the extreme in terms of special effects such as magic and science fiction, and can even effectively combine magic and science fiction to form a magical color that belongs to Western entertainment works, and its typical representative is Hollywood blockbusters.

However, the Asian entertainment industry, represented by Japan, South Korea and China, is unable to express mythological characters such as immortals, gods, and demons in an authentic way through modern scientific and technological means.

One of the reasons why special effects technology is not as good as that of the West, but the most fundamental reason is that the special effects technicians in China cannot break through the shackles of imagination and embody the fairy wind bones, ethereal temperament and image in their minds.

"You mean to replace the blood flowing in your veins with True Qi, True Yuan, and Spiritual Qi?"

"No! No way! No way...... If you do this, you will mislead children, what if people really think that what is flowing in their veins is the true yuan, and cut their wrists out of curiosity? ”

"All special effects creation based on the existing human body structure cannot pass the review in China!"

The special effects team of the crew of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is a team that has been cooperating with Director Zhang Studio for a long time, Mengdie Studio, and its person in charge, Zhang Nianshan, listened to Tang Nian's words and vetoed it at the first time.

"That's right...... True Anger ...... Operates on Sundays...... Practice...... Hara...... Purple House ...... Pregnant! ”

Tang Nian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of a solution.

"Dantian, in fact, is one of the most typical words of Chinese immortal cultivation culture since ancient times, the ancients thought that through inner cultivation, they could integrate themselves with the heavens, earth, Xuanhuang universe, and the desolation...... So, how do we express the dantian with the Milky Way? ”

"Think about it, a person's dantian qi sea is only under the belly navel, and a cultivator can open up a dantian through the cultivation of the true cultivation technique, forming a galaxy similar to the Milky Way to operate ......"

"A vortex-like rotating galaxy that converges inward, when it is gathered to the extreme to form a Dan, it is the end of a week, and then this Dan continues to operate, spreading into a mass of Milky Way, and then shrinking, and so on!"

"The combination of the spiritual root and the innate five elements, the five spiritual roots of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, the golden spiritual root cultivator, the true qi running in his body and the absorbed spiritual energy, is bright yellow, at first it was only contaminated with a trace of bright yellow, and later with the breakthrough of the realm of the cultivator, the bright yellow becomes yellow, the yellow* color becomes golden, and the golden yellow becomes golden...... In the same way, Han Li's cultivation of the wood-based exercises was grass green from the beginning, and if it was a water-based spiritual root, the outer aura and inner true qi would be light cyan......"

"In the process of cultivation, there can be dense aura of various colors like fireflies, pounce on the cultivator, and then merge into the true qi in the body, and the galaxy in the dantian is also the same color!"

"A cultivator has finished a cycle of cultivation, and the moment he opens his eyes, the same color can flow through his eyes, and in the process of fighting, his cultivation palm thunder and fireball technique can all be wrapped around the same color......"

"As for the external manifestations of cultivators after their small realm is raised, for example, the divine consciousness can cover a range of 100 meters around them like a monitor, and the cultivator can be the center, using the camera to capture the air currents, the sound of the wind, and the frolicking of various small animals 100 meters away......

“……”

"How about it, this treatment should be able to materialize the core of the immortal cultivation drama, as long as the Chinese elements are added to the special effects of props and exercises as much as possible, there will be no distortion of the painting style of 'Eastern Xiuzhen' into 'Western Magic'!"

After saying it in one breath, Tang Nian's hands were gently closed, and the light in his eyes bloomed, and its brightness made Zhang Nianshan and other special effects personnel finally come back to their senses and close their mouths wide open.

"Great! Huaxia special effects are finally saved! ”

"Tang Nian, you may not know the significance of what you just said, it is no less than pointing out the way forward for the special effects of 'immortal cultivation fantasy dramas'!"

"Who said that the special effects can't show the charm of the Oriental Immortal Dao, the fireball technique is displayed, as long as the previous 'burning flames' are abandoned, and a fire ball similar to the yin and yang gossip of the ancient Taoists is formed, it is definitely a big breakthrough!"

"There are also all kinds of innate fires when cultivators are alchemizing, and they can completely outline the shadow of a 'three-legged bronze tripod' in the flames, which is absolutely shocking!"

“……”

"Don't say anything, let's get to work!"

Zhang Nianshan endured the excitement in his heart, and with a greeting, more than a dozen special effects staff began to get busy.

I saw Zhang Nianshan load the meditation footage taken in the monitor into the computer, and after rotating 360 degrees without dead ends, he cut into the abdomen of the character, and called up a galaxy to form a dantian shape, and divided it into two directions while receiving and absorbing spiritual energy, and outputting true qi at the same time.

In this process, a galaxy in the dantian alternates repeatedly in contraction and expansion.

A member of the studio next to Zhang Nianshan began to transfer in a luminescent rendering similar to fireflies, blending into Han Li's body in the form of a moth to a fire, and after several adjustments, the various colors of aura between heaven and earth gradually became transparent......

"Now that this problem has been solved, let's focus on completing the individual PK and team battle scenes this month!"

Director Zhang clapped his hands and began to arrange the next shooting work.

"It's okay to say that the personal PK is the large-scale team battle in the Tiannan Rebellion, especially the national war in which the old monster in the Yuan Infant Period participated, the script looks magnificent, but in fact, how to shoot it is really difficult!"

Lao Cheng is the assistant director of the crew of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", and when he heard Director Zhang's words, he fell into worry.

At this time, it was already the beginning of September, and the indoor scenes of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" were basically filmed, but the outdoor scenes, especially the fight scenes, were still not progressing fast.

The large-scale team battle among them made Lao Cheng even more heartbroken.

Thinking about "Meng Jiangnu", the last battle of the Great Wall was filmed by three directors in three lines, and it took hundreds of people to shoot the desired shot.

But this "Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals" is different, the battle of the old monster at the level of Yuan Ying, one palm is a landslide and the ground cracks, and its magic weapon is sacrificed, and it is hundreds of thousands of zhang to rise in the wind, and breaking the sky is a casual matter...... How is this going on?

"Lao Cheng, don't worry, we have a storyboard, it's a big deal to shoot step by step, and finally the special effects are composited!"

Faced with this problem, Tang Nian was also helpless, and could only comfort Lao Cheng with words.

It is said that 70% of the highlights of the 'costume fantasy drama' are special effects, and eighty percent of the first season of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" is about to enter this ranks.

Because in the shooting mode of one volume and one unit, there are constantly group annihilations, and there are constantly new characters, except for Han Li who runs through each story unit to the end, basically every unit is replaced by all members......

There is no doubt that as long as the special effects of the first season of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" are reached, plus the month-long script creation in the early stage, there is basically no possibility of failure.

……

In mid-September, with the participation of Zhang Dao's troops, several large-scale group battles in the outdoor drama of "The Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", especially the scene of the Yue Kingdom fighting against the invasion of the Demon Dao, were successfully filmed.

At the end of September, the indoor and outdoor scenes of the first season of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" were basically filmed.

At the beginning of October, Mengdie Studio dispatched a scale of 50 people to form five teams, respectively, under the leadership of Tang Nian, Lao Cheng, Zhang Dao, Lao Liu, and Wangyu, and began the collection of natural geological and geomorphological styles and real-life materials across the country.

During this period, the five detachments all used drones and helicopters in the vast snow-capped mountains in the northwest, in the towering mountains in the southwest, in the karst underground caves, in the vast Gobi Desert, in the deserted Lop Nur, and in the snowy northeast region......

In the cultural landscape of major tourist attractions, in temples and Taoist temples all over the country, in various natural wonders, and in the quaint towns in the south of the Yangtze River......

It wasn't until the end of October that all the outdoor scene materials in the first season of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" were collected.

In the process, they saw the wonders of the lake and the blue sky merging, they saw the underground geological landforms that broke through human imagination, and they witnessed the sandstorms that were like tornadoes......

Everything will be completely integrated into the post-production of the first season of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals".

At the beginning of November, the first season of "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" officially entered post-production, and Tencent Pictures withdrew a large number of post-production professionals and plunged into the studio with Director Zhang, Tang Nian and others.

Time passed imperceptibly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the new year.

In mid-January, after a long six-month period, "The Legend of Mortal Immortals" finally ended its half-year-long production, and the one hundred and eight episodes of the feature-length TV series was finally released!
