Volume 1 Chapter 393 Satisfied
"It's a device used to shut down the Flame Empress, and it can release a strong current to force the Flame Empress's console to restart......"
The beauty asked, and Kaplan, played by Qian Jiale, answered her directly without thinking about it.
"Kaplan......" Xu Jinjiang, who was standing not far from him and played the mercenary captain, heard the displeasure and warned him, and the head of the Daoist knew that he was dissatisfied with his private mouth, Kaplan shrugged his shoulders with a helpless expression, but really closed his mouth and didn't speak.
The screen gives a close-up of a camera on the wall, and almost as soon as Kaplan says what the piece of equipment is for, a red dot suddenly lights up on the camera that looked like it was broken. And just as the red light was lit up, the doors on both sides of the passage that had been open suddenly closed again
"Boss, the gate is closed......"
"What's the situation, Kaplan......"
“…… Be careful, everybody......"
There was a panic on the screen, but Lin Xiaozhi and others were a little regretful, although professional editors were invited to cooperate with the production of special effects, but after all, there was no post-dubbing and music, and there was no background music in the movie
"This was done well before, just look at the laser channel below......" Before learning that a set of more than a minute of footage burned more than 6 million Hong Kong dollars, Lin Xiaozhi was still a little dissatisfied in his heart. However, after watching this scene that is better than the American version in his memory, this dissatisfaction has faded a little. He looked at Huang Li and Harvey, who was talking in a low voice with an old foreigner next to him, not noticing his gaze, but Huang Li was more sensitive, almost the moment his gaze fell on him, he seemed to feel it, and turned his head to look at him.
The eyes of the two looked at each other silently, and unexpectedly saw full of confidence in each other's eyes, Lin Xiaozhi couldn't help but be interested, and he didn't speak and put his eyes on the computer monitor.
Next, it is the moment to really test the technical strength and run-in situation of those people with new vision, because the laser channel is coming.
"Calm down, be careful and vigilant......" The mercenary captain played by Xu Jinjiang interprets the danger very well, and his words really quieted the four people trapped in the laser channel, and he raised his gun carefully, while he walked two quick steps to Kaplan played by Qian Jiale, "I need an explanation......"
"Well, it probably has a defense mechanism in it that is normally dormant, and it should have been activated when the door was opened......" he said, his fingers still tapping quickly on the keyboard. No, this clip is really good.
"Then let it continue to sleep......"
"Give me some time......"
The camera shook rapidly, the computer screen constantly flashed with dazzling red words, the nervous faces of Alice, the captain, and the mercenaries, the beads of sweat on Kaplan's forehead, and the flickering red light on the corner monitor, although there was no background music, they all told Lin Xiaozhi and others, who had God's vision, that danger was coming.
Yes, danger is coming soon.
The originally bright and dazzling laser channel suddenly began to dim regularly, because it was too nervous, Lin Xiaozhi subconsciously took a step forward, and his eyes stared at the image changes on the screen
It is estimated that no one here knows better than him how difficult it is to shoot this scene. A scene that lasted just over a minute in the movie, but when it was filming, they spent more than a week, repeated more than 400 times, and the 12-minute film shared 16 volumes. Without it, just because technology can't keep up with Hollywood, Lin Xiaozhi can only choose the method of performing without physical reference when filming, and in the channel without laser ray stimulation, the actors are required to imagine that there is a murderous laser in front of them rushing towards him, and then perform.
This is very rare and common in the mainland in later generations and in Europe and the United States today, because as long as there are countries and regions with professional acting and film schools, there are such courses for non-physical reference performance. But almost half of the artists have not received professional training! Hong Kong is really embarrassed to hurt Lin Xiaozhi. So much so that even Lin Xiaozhi himself didn't know how to handle this scene of special effects, you must know that at that time, he just sent the film that had a repeated reshoot of this scene for nearly 100 minutes, and whether the editors and special effects could choose the most suitable shots to complete this set of special effects, he was actually very uncertain.
Soon, though, he put his heart down.
"What's that?"
On the screen, the mercenary played by Ge Minhui suddenly noticed that a pillar of light lit up on the suspected glass-like wall on the side of the passage, and the pillar of light began to move towards them after it was formed, and it took almost a moment for the speed to go from slow to fast. However, although they were shocked by the sudden change, the three male mercenaries still riskily ensured their safety by virtue of their vigorous skills, which was also Lin Xiaozhi's own arrangement, even if he wanted to be the foreman here, he hoped that the few people would not behave too embarrassed.
It's a pity that the sudden change, the screening of the female medical guard played by Yang Lijing is not as quick as the reaction of the three male mercenaries, and in the frightened eyes of the pair of concerned people outside the aisle, the suddenly accelerated pillar of light passed straight through the neck, and stood there motionless.
"You're all right, are you?"
"I'm fine, be careful......"
"What the hell is that......
"Kaplan, haven't you always boasted that your skills are the best in the world......
As the three male mercenaries who were lying on the ground and escaped the catastrophe vigilantly asked each other, the three of them never got a response from the female medic amid the scolding, and then they felt bad in hindsight, and turned around to see the female medic behind them standing there motionless like a statue.
Moreover, in the horrified eyes of everyone, a scar suddenly cracked from her white neck, and then it grew bigger and bigger, and suddenly her head fell from her neck.
“…… No matter how many times I watched it, it felt incredible......"
Huang Li on the side whispered praise, it is very incredible, this set of shots can be said to be a victory for makeup artists and editors. The whole set of shots was painted by the makeup artists for her with scar makeup, and then a little bit of editing was pieced together, and the group of people who fell off the back of the head was a directly used human simulation model, and the relative special effects were only processed to let the laser light pillar synthesized by the computer later, at the right time, cross her neck.
"No ......"
"Be careful, it's coming again"
"Hurry up, Kaplan, open the door......"
"I'm trying, give me some time......"
"We're running out of time......"
In the midst of the noise, screaming, scolding, etc., the second laser came again, and the three surviving male mercenaries stared at it cautiously, because it was different from the previous laser light pillar, it was drawn from a very close place to the ground, and the three of them had to quickly get up from the ground, Ge Minhui and the two mercenaries played by Lin Haifeng, who were standing in the front, suddenly jumped up and tried to avoid it when the laser was not far from him, but he didn't expect the light pillar to suddenly increase in height, and the result went straight through the waists of the two.
"We used a computer to process the shot, and it took two days to make this shot."
Lin Xiaozhi was fascinated, and Harvey, who had finished communicating with another foreigner technician, finally opened his mouth and took the initiative to explain to him, "The pillar of light here was made by David and Li, they are really a few great guys, and they have also developed a very interesting little software for this, which can produce laser rendering effects." This laser suddenly went up, and it was edited and synthesized by the editor you sent......"
With his commentary, the laser channel enters the most dangerous phase. Two more companions died under the laser, and the mercenary played by Jiang Hua on the screen discovered the skylight above his head at the most critical moment. He leaped forward, grabbed the gap in the skylight with both hands, and desperately raised his legs and waist, narrowly avoiding the jet of light. A close-up shot of a tactical saber hanging from his waist was slashed by the pillar of light, breaking directly into two.
However, Jiang Hua, who had escaped this difficulty, had just landed, and he had not had time to be sad in the face of the corpses of the three companions who had died in the passage, and his face suddenly turned pale in the exclamations of everyone outside the passage, and it turned out that a laser beam of light was generated on the other side of the passage, shooting towards him who was slightly hunched and ready to dodge. Like the previous second pillar of changing light, this third laser pillar of light also came from a very low place, but just as he was about to repeat his old technique and jump up to dodge, it suddenly turned into a huge laser net in mid-air, facing the pillar of light without any dead ends, Jiang Hua's eyes widened, the expression on his face was distorted, his eyes were full of horror, and in an instant, the laser net crossed his body, and then some faint white smoke began to emerge from his face and body, in the exclamations of everyone outside the passage, Suddenly, neat scars appeared on his face, and then the whole person turned into a piece of broken flesh like a loose building block......
"Well, are you satisfied...... Harvey asked proudly, there are no more than twenty companies in Europe and the United States that have the ability to complete this kind of special effects, and in Asia, he and New Vision are the only team that has done it.
"Satisfied"
Lin Xiaozhi was satisfied with the effect of the special effects, and Harvey's skills had undoubtedly caught up with the effect of Konstantin finding someone to make it in his memory, which made him a little dissatisfied with Harvey at first that they burned money too quickly, and they were almost scattered.
In terms of script and character design, Lin Xiaozhi did not completely follow the original version, and also made certain improvements with reference to the novel version, the survival of the mercenary captain and many mercenaries is to increase the fight scene in the face of lickers and zombies later, Lin Xiaozhi is confident that after his series of improvements, "Resident Evil", which was born more than ten years in advance in his hands, will be more exciting than the original. It is the only way to go further without the popularity of future generations of global game fans.
Seeing that his slightly frowning brows had been relaxed, Huang Li breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the boss of the Dao Dao had already accepted their burning money in his heart, and before Harvey could speak, he pointed to another computer not far away and said: "The content of this group of special effects techniques in the laser channel is relatively high, especially in several of them, we have used dozens of technical personnel to tackle key problems before taking them down, and the equipment and consumption are a little bigger, but with the accumulation of techniques and experience, if there are similar scenes in the future, the cost will not be so high." Let's take a look at another group of 'Flame Queens, Impacts, you weren't satisfied with the group we made before, and it took a lot of effort to redo this group of big guys, and it's undoubtedly much better than before......"
On the special effects side, Harvey's original 'Flame Empress, image, is worse than the blurred image of the Flame Empress in the original version that Lin Xiaozhi has seen, although it does not affect the overall effect of the movie, but Lin Xiaozhi still ordered it to be redone. In his opinion, although "Resident Evil" is a pseudo-science fiction film, after all, it is hung with the big skin of science fiction, and it can't make the audience look too bad.
The 'Flame Queen' in the original work, I don't know how many times Lu Dao has been complained about by fans of "Resident Evil", and it's no wonder that when Konstantin started filming the first part, the budget that could be used for post-production of special effects after paying the actor's salary was not much, only two or three million pounds, so the special effects of "Resident Evil L" were only done by a second-rate company in Europe and the United States, and the level of processing was not high at all in the 21st century, which is why he burned money, Harvey: The reason why they were able to make the effect not worse than the original
In a small aspect, Lin Xiaozhi's requirements are not too high, he does not require the 'Flame Empress, the image can be as clear as the projection in the later Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters, but at least it has to be a little like this.
The last time he came, after he had given these instructions, Harvey had clearly written them down, and as several people moved to another computer, Lin Xiaozhi quickly nodded with satisfaction as a new image opened.
"Yes, yes, that's what I want"
On the computer screen in front of them, the mercenary captain, Kaplan and Alice stood in a not wide room, the three of them stood vigilantly together, in the open space in front of them, there was a waist-high cylinder, and there was something similar to a projector at each of the four corners of the cylinder, each emitting a light aimed at the air, clearly imprinting the figure of a cute little Lori about the size of a teenager, it was the child star - Tang Ning, she had previously starred in the corner of the childhood red bean in "Across the Seas", was favored by Lin Xiaozhi and pulled to become the 'Flame Empress,.
“…… You can't shut me down, if I am stopped, they will be released, and not only will you all die here, but there will be even greater disasters......"
"They? Who are they? Alice, played by Tong Ling, asked curiously.
"Character Scan, Designation: UU19, Codename: Alice, Hive Ground Security Personnel, I'm sorry, you don't have enough clearance, I can't answer your question......"
"Ignore it, it's afraid of being shut down......"
Because of his negligence, he killed several of his companions, Capcom's face was very ugly, and his tone became much worse than just now: "Don't be fooled by its cute image, although it is designed with the daughter of the craftsman in appearance, it is nothing more than a ruthless killing machine......"
The mercenary captain played by Xu Jinjiang on the side also took over the topic, "Why do you want to kill everyone in the hive suddenly......"
People Scan...... I can't answer your question because I can't answer your question......"
"We bought several projection patent rights from Sony, and it was with Sony's technical support that we were able to complete this set of clear projection production ......."
It's enough, Lin Xiaozhi has completely let go of his dissatisfaction with the special effects side that burned 10 million a month. "Resident Evil" has this effect, as long as the rest of the plot does not collapse, there will be a place in the box office market of the world this year.
