"If Cameron takes over the filming of The Lord of the Rings and says he wants to shoot in 3D, he, a technical maniac, will probably work with his team to improve the camera, and maybe the Pacefusion 3D camera will not necessarily be ......."

Just when Wang Shang analyzed, another piece of news struck again.

Following Paramount and Warner with "The Lord of the Rings", Universal Pictures announced another film project - "Harry Potter", with a planned investment of $200 million!! And the director is Alfonso. Cuarón, the director of Harry Potter 3.

And they are also confidently announcing that Harry Potter will also start making 3D!!

The only thing left of Wang Shang at this time is to be stunned!!

"Harry Potter is out too?"

Speaking of "Harry Potter", I have to say that it has created brilliant achievements in the previous time and space, "Harry Potter" 8 movies have earned a total of 7.806 billion US dollars in the world, and with the current proportion, it is directly 71 billion yuan at the box office, which is extremely crazy!!

Last year, Wang Shang noticed that the novel version of "Harry Potter" began to become popular around the world under the impetus of several behind-the-scenes promoters, and with its extremely realistic (principle) explanation, countless people believed that the existence of magic was true.

Now at the beginning of 2008, the popularity of the Harry Potter novel is no weaker than that of "The Lord of the Rings", the ancestor of magic novels, and it has a lot of popularity in China.

Wang Shang felt terrible when he saw that "Harry Potter" was gradually selling well all over the world. I think it's going to be brought to the screen soon.

As Wang Shang expected, "Harry Potter" really came to the screen, and he resolutely chose to impact 3D.

"It seems that the plan needs to be advanced!! I want to fight for the first soup!! Wang Shang thought.

"There is no way to shoot "Avatar", the time is too long, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to complete the production before "Lord of the Rings 1" and "Harry Potter 1".

""The Matrix" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" have no novel foundation in this time and space, and there is no way to compare with "Lord of the Rings" and "Harry Potter", which have a huge readership, even if they are out, they are losers, so I will not consider them for the time being."

Wang Shang thought about it, and finally fixed his eyes on the four big characters 'Transformers' written on the table......

"Transformers now has a high reputation in toys, comics, anime, and games around the world. And it's no smaller than The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. It's a good film subject. And the Transformers models have already been designed when they were making toys, and the script has ready-made ......"

"Okay, that's it!!"

In the end, Wang Shang made a decision to shoot "Transformers"!

But if you want to shoot in 3D. It's going to be a bit of a change in the script. The 3D and 2D scenes will be slightly different.

And. The camera is still a little hot, and there is no way to officially start shooting for the time being.

After Wang Shang returned to the company, he quickly gathered all the members of the current Tianwang Film and Television Company in terms of computer special effects production. They were given a task: "You must all be familiar with Transformers, and some of you have worked on them before. Now I ask you to give the various Transformers inside a makeover from their original appearance. ”

"For example, Optimus Prime's current shape is a bit earthy, a little more majestic, and a little more grandiose!!"

"The other Autobots are nowhere near as domineering as the mad Transformers, and I need you to improve on that."

"The other thing is to design them to be made up of at least a thousand moving digital parts."

In Wang Shang's mouth, he kept saying one after another requirements.

Everyone in the special effects team listened, and there was a feeling that big trouble was coming.

The birth of a Transformer can be roughly divided into seven steps, conceptual design, mechanical setting, drawing the internal mechanical skeleton and external armor, and preliminary attempts at three-dimensional transformation, deepening the Transformers design to the point where it is close to completion, modifying the details, designing the head, and making the design three-dimensional by the members of the model team.

Take Optimus Prime as an example, which currently has a total of 10,108 parts, 1.8 million polygon faces, and 2,000 texture textures.

Trying to improve it is definitely a huge project that involves the whole body.

However, everyone felt extremely excited: "Boss, is this going to start filming "Transformers"? ”

Wang Shang smiled and nodded.

Seeing Wang Shang's response, everyone was pleasantly surprised!!

"Great!!"

"It's finally on!!"

"I've been looking forward to it for a long time, and now it's finally here!"

"Transformers" has long been famous all over the world, and as a product of Tianwang Film and Television Company, the employees of Tianwang Film and Television Company can be said to have a different mood for it. In their opinion, "Biochemical Apocalypse" and "Fast and Furious" are not as good as "Transformers" in terms of background, and in their hearts, "Transformers" should be the signboard, honor and symbol of Tianwang Film and Television Company.

Therefore, they had long hoped to make it into a movie, but unfortunately they waited and waited, and they never waited for any news, which disappointed them.

And now, Wang Shang himself admitted this, how could he not let them be ecstatic.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!!" They said categorically as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

――――――――――

Since Paramount, Warner, and Universal announced that "Lord of the Rings 1" and "Harry Potter 1" will start filming in 3D, world movies have begun to surge.

At this time, filming is underway, and "The Chronicles of Narnia 2", "Robot Story", "Batman Prequel 2", "Earth Stands Still", "Flying House Globe", "New Moon" and so on are also overshadowed by the "Chronicles of Narnia 2", "Robot Story", "Batman Prequel 2", "Flying House", "New Moon", etc., which are scheduled to be released this year or next year.

3D seems to have become the theme of this year.

Although 3D has been around for a long time, there is no investment of more than $200 million.

Because 3D is still a pitfall, there are still countless problems to be solved. Because of technical problems, it is difficult for the movie to exceed 100 minutes, and many viewers said that not only did they not feel the visual feast after watching it, but they were also dizzy, nauseous and wanted to vomit.

So when "Lord of the Rings 1" and "Harry Potter 1" bravely announced that they would be filmed in 3D, they immediately attracted a lot of attention. However, other film companies don't dare to try it easily, thinking that they are already one step behind anyway and it is difficult to catch up, so it is better to wait first, let "Lord of the Rings 1" and "Harry Potter 1" explore the situation in front, and follow up quickly if the market is broad.

And in China. A 3D movie that has never appeared before. At this time, because of the news of the start of filming of "Lord of the Rings 1" and "Harry Potter 1", the concept of 3D movies began to enter the public eye.

"There's still this thing, it's amazing~~"

"I can't understand what it is, but it feels awesome."

"In the United States, 3D has been around since the 10s. And now many theaters in North America have begun to show 3D short films early. There is still no movement in the country. Backward ......"

In Huaxia. Most people don't know what a 3D movie is.

At this time, the topic of 3D began to gradually become hot in China.

Many film companies saw this opportunity and wanted to get involved. But after seeing the technical requirements required for 3D movies, I was immediately discouraged, it was too high-end, and I almost looked up.

Within two days, some film media newspapers began to analyze the major domestic film companies and the domestic technical level, and soon came to a conclusion: with Huaxia's current film technology, there is no way to make 3D movies if you don't accept foreign aid. And there is no director in China who has 3D shooting experience.

After Wang Shang and Liu Xi played in the playground of Haizhu City, they bought a newspaper and read it while eating. The results happened to see this newspaper analysis.

Wang Shangle was happy.

If you don't have yourself, no one really would make a long-form 3D movie, but now that you have yourself, everything is not a problem. Technology, money, courage, I don't lack anything, and there is nothing to stop me.

"Laughing at what??" Liu Xi took two bowls of corn keel soup, put them on the table, and asked curiously. At this time, the weather was still a little cold, so Liu Xi was wearing a set of sports winter clothes, adding a ponytail, and it was appropriate to lightly wipe it, and the dimples of Wanwan were full of green breath.

Wang Shangcai flew from the magic capital to Haizhu last night, and was pulled into the playground early this morning and played wildly. At this point, I'm really tired.

Wang Shang didn't answer, just smiled and handed over the newspaper.

“3d？？ What is 3D? Liu Xi looked at Wang Shang with a sideways face, and almost had two question marks on his head, and his two big eyes were very cute.

Wang Shang explained to her with a smile: "3D is the abbreviation of 'threedimensions' in English, which means three-dimensional. In the movie, after a certain amount of technical processing, people can feel that the things in the movie appear off-screen and surround the audience, which is a 3D movie. ”

Then Wang Shang introduced to her the principle of 3D, that is, the visual deviation of the eye, and then told her about the production method, such as a polarizer.

Liu Xi: "Doesn't that sound difficult? ”

Wang Shang shook his head: "No, it's quite difficult." The first is the camera, without a good camera, you can't even shoot real scenes, let alone the CG image of the computer becomes 3D, it is more difficult than live shooting. ”

"So the team that filmed Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter has found a new technology for shooting 3D?"

Wang Shang nodded: "Yes, even if it's not, it's not far off, because the old technology can't support the demand for making big movies." ”

"If Huaxia wants to make a 3D movie, won't it have to wait a few years??"

Hearing this, Wang Shang smiled: "Haha, you underestimate me too much, I won't lag behind them, next time I will take you to see 3D." ”

After Wang Shang's explanation, she realized that her boyfriend had started preparing early, and now he has successfully developed a new 3D shooting technology.

"Uncle is amazing!!" ……)

PS: It's been hard to write about the plot lately.
