Chapter 309: Special Effects

The Jihad Raiders crew quickly got the main actors, and the rest of the supporting roles are simpler, it should be admitted that the film industry in the moldy country is still stronger than Daming, and there is a fixed process for things like casting, which can even be quantified with data.

When the actors are almost assembled, and the picture effect of the water battle model also comes out, Yingshuai will first gather everyone to watch it together, and you can also collect opinions.

In fact, the special effects of the Holy War were a sensation back then, but from the current perspective of the hero, it can only be said to be average, just take this water war as an example.

The original film was nothing more than a chase by a few dinghys, and the scene was not spectacular at all.

Since he wants to build Raiders of the Lost Ark into a super IP, Yingshuai's plan is to continue the adventure, action and comedy elements of the original film, which is thrilling and romantic and humorous, but the special effects and rhythm should be further improved.

"Will, come and sit down. The handsome greeted the actors who came in one after another.

Scarlett didn't sit in the designated seat, and sat down in front of the vacant seat next to Yingshuai, who shrugged his shoulders helplessly, thinking that the director's charm was really awesome.

Smith actually participated in the actual filming of this scene, and he still remembers the crude ship model vividly, so he didn't have much expectations for today's trial film, but this was the request of the British director, and he didn't dare not come.

However, his attitude was not so upright, and he couldn't help but sit crookedly, similar to lying on a chair.

Rumble!

There was a loud bang that nearly knocked Smith out of his position.

He struggled to sit up straight, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of spit, and he looked to the side to look at the others, and Scarlett was almost so frightened that she shrunk into the arms of the hero.

Yingshuai looked at the startled people with some embarrassment, this is a special effects shot, and there is no prelude, but it is estimated that Dennis made such a big battle when he comes up is also a plane made by Dennis.

"Boss, how about it, I've turned up the sound effect an octave, exciting, right?" the big fat tech man said proudly.

Yingshuai glanced at the fat man with disdain, and said in his heart, stimulate your sister, if it weren't for the sake of you bombarding people into my arms, I would definitely use your scalp to shave you to death.

Dennis looked at the screen with great interest, as if admiring a beloved toy, but this tech fat house did not know what kind of escape he had just experienced.

And Smith had begun to stare intently at the screen, which showed several dinghys weaving dangerously in a race of thousands of sails.

Artillery fire began to roar from the ships chasing behind, and from time to time columns of water rose into the sky.

Smith only felt that his heart was surging, and the scene in front of him could only be described as shocking.

But unfortunately, the picture ended in just a few tens of seconds, the screen dimmed, and the lights in the screening room turned on.

"Let's talk about your feelings. Ying Shuai smiled.

Everyone present had not yet woken up from the shock, and no one spoke for a while.

"Will, you were on the scene that day, why don't you talk about it first. Seeing that no one spoke, Yingshuai named them one by one.

This was taken that day? I don't read much, don't lie to me.

Smith couldn't believe it, he couldn't make the connection between the special effects blockbuster he was seeing and the humble miniature shoot a few days earlier.

However, he knew that Yingshuai would not make such a joke, and he said excitedly: "This is the best special effect I have ever seen, but I can't imagine how it was done, is it really my processing of the scene he shot?"

The technical details will naturally not explain too much, and the special effects scenes look exciting, but in fact, the production process is not so beautiful to put it bluntly, and distance produces beauty.

He just nodded and said, "Indeed, we have adopted a new special effects technology, which is currently being run-in, but in fact, I don't think the effect has reached the expected level." ”

"This hasn't lived up to expectations, it's already an era ahead, and only A Chinese Ghost Story's special effects can barely be compared. Scarlett came to her senses from the shocking special effects and muttered.

"yes, I can't even tell the difference between reality and illusion, the effect is too real. Garrison interjected.

"It's true that we haven't fully mastered the new technology yet, but judging from everyone's reactions, it should be possible to reach the level that Jihad Trooper wants to achieve. Dennis chuckled.

Okay, you're all cows, and everyone throws a pair of health balls to the two of you.

Yes, Yingshuai took out the CG technology he extracted, but he didn't completely hand it over to ILM, he just took out a slightly higher technology than the current world's highest level for them to study.

But this is already a black technology, and Dennis and they studied it for months before they barely mastered it.

The first test subject is the water chase in Jihad, the scene in the original time and space is really a bit rudimentary, the hero added more ships on the water, arranged for the two sides of the chase to shuttle through the dense boats, and constantly dodged artillery fire.

These are all done through CG animation special effects, in fact, the special effects scenes you see now are not exactly the model shooting that Smith saw that day, that day it was just to capture the data fed back by thousands of sensors placed in the model and water, and finally through computer simulation.

They had been shooting this model no less than 50 times, and by combining all the data, they were able to complete the special effects scene.

This can be said to be the world's first film clip completed by CG animation, and the visual impact brought to people is self-evident.

Scarlett's eyes at the handsome look at the little stars of admiration are more dense, she has a keen sense that her choice this time has won the jackpot, as long as the plot of this film is not too bad, with such special effects, the sensation at the time of release can already be predicted, and her transformation to a commercial film is half of the success.

In fact, this is also one of the purposes of Yingshuai to take everyone to watch this film clip this time, although he wants everyone to give feedback and revisions, but more importantly, this is his first blockbuster shot in the moldy country, which requires the crew to obey themselves unconditionally, which can not be done with the title of a director alone, and he also wants to show everyone his strength in a timely manner, such as the level of movie special effects is very revealing.

The reaction of the crowd was also very satisfactory to him, so he arranged for the crew members to go back to rest and prepare to leave on time for filming on location two days later.

Raiders of the Lost Ark series, one of the biggest features is that it is full of exotic customs, each of which can take the audience to experience a place full of mystery.

As for Yingshuai himself, he is going to attend the premiere of another movie.
