……

In addition to imitating Hugo, the "doppelgangers" also had to cover their faces with sensory patches, which were "motion-captures" that input all the actions that Neo and the 100 "Smiths" should have done into the computer.

This work alone will take several months, and it is estimated that the complete film will set a new record for the use of "motion captors" in the history of cinema, and in fact, this record will surpass the number of motion captures ever used in all large-scale 3D games (computer games are the largest market for "motion captors").

Yuan Heping is not surprised by the endless high-tech in film shooting. He knew that this young man was not like other Chinese filmmakers, and he was only somewhat similar to Xu Laowei in Hong Kong, and they all liked to challenge technological innovation.

But I have to say that the use of "motion captor" also makes his action design more handy, and he doesn't have to worry about the problem that Hugo's doppelganger is not like it, he can design many movements that are difficult for ordinary people to do, and can be modified by guò computer to make the martial arts movements look more powerful and stretched.

Every time he finished shooting, he looked at the effect after the special effects were made, and even he had to sigh for a while, "Wonderful!" It's wonderful, and there's no way to do it in reality. ”

Every now and then, Michael's special effects team would take all of his compliments. Because they deserve this compliment.

Not only Smith's doppelganger, but the entire special effects team division has two bone model shelves standing at all times. One of them is Chen Tiandu's "skeleton". The other is by Hugo Weaving. See this thing. It can also make people feel uncomfortable. "We'll be like this in a hundred years."

"Don't think about it, after a hundred years, your bones will be burned to ashes, how can they be so white." Hugo struck.

This is a real "reconstruction" of the body structure of the virtual Neo and Smith from bones to muscles to skin, and then covering them with a clear and real skin and clothes in the photos.

In the process of creating a real "virtual human" step by step, Michael's special effects team invented another ultra-cutting-edge technology: "Total Capture", also known as "Holographic Capture".

They use five SONy flagship ultra-high-precision HDW900 digital camcorders. Aiming at each actor's face in a semicircle, capturing every delicate response of the actor's face - from the swing of a strand of hair to the twitching of each wrinkle (HDW90 can accurately see the hair follicles and capillaries), and then combining the number jù of the five machines to get the three-dimensional exact number of the actor's face during the performance.

All of these numbers are not compressed, but are fed directly into the large computer system, and the number of jù traffic per second is calculated in G, and it is the turn of the special effects team to "paste" these real facial expressions to the corresponding virtual humans according to the pre-designed plot.

Because whether it is the figure, movement, expression of the virtual person, or the change of their clothes when they move, they are directly copied from the real performance. Virtual humans are completely indistinguishable from actors in the real world.

These are not the end, and many of them are complex. Even Chen Tian didn't understand it, because he was too professional.

According to Michael, the final step is to "copy" the good virtual scenes, props, and some special effects required by the film to be added to perfectly combine them into a virtual world like the real world. They called the virtual shoot a "virtual studio," which made it possible to diversify the use and editing of shots without limits.

Every time Michael's team overcomes a difficulty, they will proudly sigh, "After this movie, Matrix Special Effects Studio is among the top special effects studios in the world, and I'm afraid no one will doubt it." ”

Chen Tian disagreed, "If you can turn losses into profits and rank first in the world, I will also raise my hands in agreement." Michael was deflated that such a huge amount of special effects technology was based on dollars. If it weren't for Chen Tiandu's funds, they wouldn't be able to handle a single scene.

Hollywood blockbusters use more and more special effects, often in a movie, special effects occupy a greater proportion than imagined. However, compared with the huge profits of the movie, even the actors and screenwriters have a share, but no special effects studio can enjoy the right to share. Therefore, don't look at Hollywood's movie special effects that are so prosperous, in fact, most of them will not bring much profit. There are only a few, such as Industrial Light & Magic, the digital sector......

No, even Cameron's digital realm may not be much profitable, otherwise it would not have declared bankruptcy in the future.

There is only one industrial light and magic that can really be called the first.

The special effects of a movie, unless you find a giant like Industrial Light & Magic to do it, you need to use many special effects companies, this one handles the background, that one handles the rendering, and this one is responsible for the seamless combination...... In fact, many times a special effects blockbuster, even Industrial Light & Magic does not dare to say "I have it all", and "Planet Prequel 2", which is still in production, has 3 other companies involved.

Including "The Lord of the Rings 1: The Lord of the Rings", which is scheduled to be released next Christmas, in addition to Vita's studio, there are also 8 companies involved in the production of special effects.

The sequel to "The Matrix" has been chartered to Hong Kong, no matter how many companies are involved in the end, there is a company that does the leading work in the pre-filming, filming, and post-filming, and it is also the special effects team that follows the crew, and the Oscar for Best Visual Effects is also awarded to it, and this company, there is no doubt that it is the matrix digital special effects studio.

"One minute on stage, ten years off the stage, the ancients honestly did not deceive me." Chen Tiandu sighed, "It's just that the money is burned too much, and ordinary people really can't afford to play." ”

Soon, a satisfying "Cut! Voice.

When the clear blue sky of Los Angeles was replaced by a beautiful view of dusk, the crew also ended the day's work, and several paparazzi took photos at the door.

When Hugo Weaving saw the reporter, he also generously introduced it to the reporter, and said with a smile, "This is my doppelganger, we are together every day, and now we almost sleep together." Seeing that he was in a good mood, the reporters hurriedly asked for more details.

Hugo revealed something, although Chen Tian didn't say anything like the need to keep it secret, he also knew what to say and what not to say, "It's hard to shoot every day, Chen and I have a big fight, and both of them are injured." Every day when I go home, I just want to lie in bed and stay motionless...... But this qiē is worth it, because the effect is so amazing that I believe everyone will be amazed when they see it! ”

The next day, there were reports in the newspapers and on the Internet of the twelve stand-ins of the matrix agents, with similar heights, the same costumes and even sunglasses, and their demeanor and movements were also very similar, comparable to their bodies. It was amazed by many readers and netizens, and it was unclear!

As the days passed, the final verdict on the U.S. election was finally made.

On December 4, Judge Saulse of the Leon County Court refused to count the "problem votes" at Gore's request, and Gore appealed to the Florida Supreme Court; The U.S. Supreme Court remanded Bush's appeal against the Florida Supreme Court's decision for a new trial. Four days later, the Florida Supreme Court ruled to count the statewide "problem votes," and Bush appealed to the US Supreme Court. Two judges in Leon County refused to invalidate 25,000 absentee ballots. The next day, the U.S. Federal High Court ordered a suspension of the manual counting of votes in Florida, and the Florida House of Representatives appointed 25 electors who supported Bush. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to stop manual counting in Florida, and Gore lost the election result.

The American people thought that this most money-burning and interesting pie would last until after Christmas, but they didn't expect it to end so soon, and they were still a little unsatisfied. On 13 July, Gore was unwilling to make a televised speech admitting defeat, while Bush immediately delivered a victory speech. His inauguration ceremony will be held in January next year, and invitations to the inauguration ceremony have been distributed to the outside world one after another. Also this year, Putin held a world-renowned inauguration ceremony in the Kremlin.

"It's really hilarious."

On the way home, Chen Tiandu flipped through the newspaper. Then he suddenly thought of a question, everyone knows that in the United States, there is a saying that "donating is not in vain", "So will I get a few tickets?" ”

"What?"

Kate, who was driving, didn't hear clearly, and Jun Ji-hyun added, "He said the admission ticket. ”

"What admission ticket?"

Jun Ji-hyun shook her head, how did she know.

"The Inauguration of the President of the United States." Chen Tiandu explained casually. Then the two women in the car were stunned, and Kate was puzzled for a while: "I seem to remember, you donated money." ”

As soon as the car entered the house, I found a car parked there, "Hey, this is not Kong's car, we have guests coming?" ”

The security facilities of their homes have been redesigned, dozens of surveillance cameras have been installed, and protective fences have been erected in some places. And the housekeeper invited at home is also a professional housekeeper who has been refined by the British Butler College. Named Victor Dracula, he speaks an authentic London accent and behaves very elegantly, no matter what situation he encounters, he looks like an elegant and noble aristocrat.

And Dracula was born with some skin diseases and couldn't bask in the sun, so his skin was very fair, and with his name, it seemed like he was really like a legendary vampire. When Chen Tiandu accepted his application, he maliciously peeked at his teeth, but fortunately there were no tiger teeth. You must know that there have always been legends of vampires in Europe and the United States, and many people prefer to believe that they are really zài.

"Victor, who's coming?" Chen Tiandu asked.

Victor touched his chest slightly and said, "Sir, the staff of the White House are waiting for you, and they are introducing you to the presidential inauguration ceremony." ”

Chen Tiandu was stunned, and glanced at Kate, and really let him guess correctly. (To be continued......)
