Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

"Shocking Demon Thieves" was released in many countries and regions around the world, and the box office results were also quite good. China will move to September, not as strong as the Phantom movie in the same period.

At this time, another movie about Li Donglai is being promoted.

That is "The Strongest on the Planet: Li Donglai Documentary", which has been in preparation since last year, and the film is scheduled to be released in June. It will also be widely released in the 6 Chinese market, which is also the first time that a documentary has been released on such a large scale in China.

The schedule was not very good, because at that time it would bump into "Man: Man of Steel". However, as a documentary, apart from publicity, the cost is not much, and it is easy to make money. Li Donglai didn't worry about it, he didn't even appear in person to publicize, and Weibo was handed over to a professional team to operate, encouraging fans to buy tickets to watch movies.

And he himself devoted himself to the crew of "World of Warcraft".

After all the actors have undergone preliminary training, have finalized their makeup, and made digital motion capture technology and image photography, they have all been assembled and will officially enter the pre-shooting.

According to Li Donglai's idea, the assistant director team recruited a total of five assistant directors, two foreign ones, which were biased in all aspects, which could help him make up for his shortcomings.

In the morning, about 25 of the main members of the crew and the main actors were gathered in the crew's office for a seminar. It's not that boring that so many people get together to discuss the content of the movie and talk freely. It's an opportunity to get to know each other better, to get acquainted with actors who don't know each other well, and to bring up any ideas they have about the role. If appropriate, the crew will adopt it.

Li Donglai walked in front and led. said to everyone: "Everyone should have read the script, this time the movie will no longer be born on Earth, but a fantasy Azeroth Big 6." There are a lot of magical creatures in it, and these creatures are very different from the earth, so most of them will be synthesized by computers. ”

"Today, I am bringing you here to witness the efforts of our special effects department for more than half a year, and the completion of a new generation of 3D, NetBSP; As he spoke, Li Donglai pressed a remote control. The interior lights dimmed. Everyone put on their 3D glasses.

Under the operation of the staff, the huge screening screen directly in front of it quickly lit up, and then a set of shots was displayed.

Two huge big 6s, with a huge storm sea in the middle.

The background monologue is a very imposing woman who introduces the basics of Azeroth. The camera suddenly descends from the sky, snowflakes fly, and a druid appears. Climb over a snowy peak. Then you can see a huge fantasy castle in the valley of wind and snow. The camera turns again, and appears in a forest, the woods, dark, quiet, but there are not common flowers and shrubs inside. It's a very peculiar plant.

There are peacock tail leaves, elephant ear leaves, coral tentacle leaves...... There are all kinds of strange foliage plants, and they all emit a charming and colorful light in the dark night, green, blue, purple, orange, cyan, intertwined. Gorgeous, not dazzling.

A sexy female elf with a bow and arrow on her back. appeared.

"Ah, it's me, I haven't acted yet." Natalie Portman exclaimed, and quickly covered her mouth again. The people around laughed, and they all felt unusual.

There are too many CG compositing, and the 3D effect is very realistic. There are also elves in the process of running, and suddenly a flash of brilliance summons a white tiger. Straddle up and jump over a cliff.

Fluorescent flying insects flew around the jungle with a rhythm.

The sound of running water, the chirping of insects, and the chirping of some night owls. The whole jungle is filled with a strange beauty.

The undead lich dressed in non-mainstream clothes that could not be torn was very ugly, and when he stepped on the grass, he immediately withered. He raised his skeletal staff, his head scattered, and the green light rising from his back, and a huge rocky hellfire was summoned. There are also many trails of dark blue "meteorites" falling in the sky, all of which are grand occasions when hellfire is summoned.

In this section, the soundtrack is very magnificent.

Everyone exclaimed, even the soundtrack was done again, it seems that it was really carried out a long time ago.

In the minutes that followed, they saw green-skinned orcs, wielding giant totemic pillars to fight, and Terran magicians, two-handed lightning balls unleashing powerful magic. Seas of fire, icebergs, forests, grasslands, strange floating hollow archipelagos.

The film was edited for 6 minutes, and after watching it, everyone saw the otherworldly fantasy scenery described in the script. I can't help but be shocked by the magnificence of these video clips.

What they don't know is that the resolution of these images produced by computers is the highest in any movie, and the magnification is ten times that is still extremely clear.

"There is speculation that an investment of 500 million is too much. There's a chance I'll shoot two in a row. But here I want to explain to you that the 500 million US dollars spent on filming and remuneration are only 200 million yuan, and most of the other funds will be invested in special effects and post-production. ”

The subsequent filming went very quickly, and almost every actor was covered with a variety of patches, which was naturally "motion expression capture technology".

More than 15oo top special effects engineers are working, and the special effects investment has been more than 200 million US dollars.

This time, Li Donglai is full of confidence in the special effects of "World of Warcraft".

The crew came to China for the first filming location, and secretly came to the beautiful grassland of Qinghai. Dozens of buses lined up from the highway into the depths of the grassland, and everyone seemed to have walked into the most beautiful place in heaven and earth.

"It's so beautiful, is this heaven." Natalie Portman was delighted.

"Almost, this is the closest place to heaven." Li Donglai introduced with a smile.

Here, the early arrival of the staff has built a beautiful and strange world. There's going to be a big battle between the orcs and the humans.

The crew of "World of Warcraft" quietly came to Qinghai to start filming, and did not tell anyone, let alone invite any media, Li Donglai just wanted to keep a low profile. I really don't want to be bothered by the media.

The reason why the start-up location is in Qinghai. On the one hand, there is an important battle scene in World of Warcraft, which will take place here. And also for charity. Why not bring medical care and education to this place in advance.

This is not the only location in China, but the big battles here require a lot of actors.

So despite not doing any publicity, before Tong Guò recruited extras. In addition, many volunteers suddenly appeared in the local villages to build medical centers and schools for them, which were also directly exposed on the Internet.

There are also herdsmen passing by who saw Lianyun's tent sitting on the grassland in an orderly manner, and there were also strange orc base style bone spur halls, barracks and other buildings were erected, which attracted countless locals to take pictures.

You can't ban these things.

Although the crew wanted to keep it as secret as possible, they were still followed all the way to Qinghai by reporters with a keen sense of smell.

There were more than 5,000 extras. Each one has to wear makeup, and the horses are herded by herders, and there are professional riding instructors who teach them every day.

Each group performance has professional makeup. Even some of the horses had to be decorated. It's a huge undertaking.

The reporters were so excited, and there was endless news coming out every day. Because of the local relationship, their news is the earliest, and it has been reprinted by many foreign media. It's a big limelight.

Li Donglai also sold cute, and posted a new article on his Weibo and Twitter, "Many years have passed since the Alliance and the Horde fought side by side to resist the invasion of the Burning Legion. Despite the success of saving Azeroth Big 6, a fragile agreement between the Horde and the Alliance. But it's long gone......"

Finally, there is a rendering of Azeroth. and a high-definition special effects shot trailer of less than 6o seconds.

This version of the trailer was shown at the previous meeting, but Li Donglai streamlined it again. There is no face, and only the approximate effect of a few important locations such as Azeroth Grand 6, Lordaeron Grand 6, Dalaran, and Stormwind City are displayed. It's kind of a landscape trailer.

After Weibo went out, it was immediately warmly sought after by countless fans.

Turn constantly.

This is the first trailer released by the crew. Very stingy. None of the actors showed their faces in it, but it made countless fans of Yamaguchiyama excited. Almost to the point of tears.

"Wow. How many years. The movie was finally about to start, and I thought I would never see it again in my lifetime. ”

Under the crazy enthusiasm, it is crazy to reprint the cloth. Within a few days, this Weibo was retweeted 20 million times, directly breaking the Gillis world record - the record for the most retweets.

They couldn't see the big-name Li Donglai, so they had to send a certificate to Li Donglai's agent Godie. Then in the evening, Gotie took a photo of Li Donglai holding the certificate and put it on the Internet, which was a response to Gillis.

It wasn't until more than a year later that the Weibo record was broken by the fanatical fans of Luhan, a Chinese member of a popular South Korean band. But it led to a new bloody battle.

Li Donglai wants to shoot the battle of "World of Warcraft", and one of the most important visual effects to achieve is to restore the real cold weapon war of the powerful beast and human cavalry.

In the past, many Chinese and foreign cold weapon war movies were very perfunctory on the real battlefield. The battlefield effect in the West is much better, but some films, such as "Braveheart", are still in a strict formation and very imposing when they charge, but after the hand-to-hand encounter, they become hooligans and fight.

The most classic cold weapon war scenes were born in movies such as "The Lord of the Rings" and "Heavenly Dynasty".

The horse war is absolutely representative, and it is very imaginable how much "Heavenly Dynasty" has invested in it.

This scene in "World of Warcraft" between the orcs and the human race is not the main content. But there's something exciting about it everywhere. Even if there is a big war, Li Donglai will make the whole world frightened.

The Knights of the Silver Hand of the Terrans, that is the most elite cavalry unit, and the commander of the ** division.

The tall, brave and combative orc warriors are the absolute combat power of the charge.

The powerful appearance of the cavalry of the Terran Silver Knights, as well as the bravery and formation of his orcs.

There is also a lot of CG background involved in the middle, and the beast prophet is played by Wu Yanzu, but his appearance is almost unrecognizable. The Prophet's magic lightning chain is very shocking, and the blizzard of the Terran ** division. will all face off under this dim sky.

Both of them are fighting peoples, so what kind of expression should the battle formation of the beast race and the war of the human cavalry be on the Azeroth big 6 in the fantasy world.

For this reason, Li Donglai also verified many historians and referred to the cavalry battle formations in Chinese history. I also discussed with many archaeologists and learned about the formations of ancient warfare in the West.

The so-called ancient wars in the TV series are all nonsense, and the battlefield requires a strict formation that cooperates with each other, not hooligans.

These will be moved into the world of Azeroth, where they will be realistically recreated and beautified.

Li Donglai wants to show the fierceness and excitement of the confrontation between the two races, which is the most passionate and the most difficult to express.

This requires these professional group performers to train the desired effect, and Li Donglai wants to create that kind of scene regardless of the cost, so he has high requirements for even a group performance.
