Chapter 292: "Tongtian"
"I'm playing the villain in this movie."
Next to him, Wu Wolf interjected.
CG movies are different from purely animated movies in that they require live people to act.
As soon as the two said this, Zhang Yang knew why he was on the side of the Gongxing base.
It's just that he doesn't understand how Chasing Light started making CG movies.
The main reason is that although CG movies have their advantages, such as character images and special effects scenes are stronger than pure reality or pure animation, the audience has high requirements for CG movies, huge investment, and the poor quality of the movie is very easy to encounter Waterloo.
And none of the movies of this type seem to have achieved high box office.
Therefore, most game companies will use this method to make promotional videos, which is extremely rare in the film and television industry.
"How did you think of making CG movies? Didn't you do this before chasing the light? Zhang Yang asked curiously: "I remember that the movies you produced before were all pure animation, and now this is?" ”
"The resolution of the company's upper management, and CG animation, I also think it is the future trend of animated films." Yang Yu waved his hand and said: "That's why I wanted to try to challenge this movie, but I didn't expect it."
Speaking of this, Yang Yu touched his nose, and his face was a little embarrassed.
In the area of pure animated films, the technology of chasing light has matured, and there are representative works, but although there are not many domestic animation companies, there are a few, so chasing light wants to find another way to break into the CG industry.
After all, if this kind of movie is made well, the picture is much more expressive than traditional animation.
The movie picture quality is comparable to that of a real person, and the characters are closer to the real world, which is not comparable to pure animation in many ways.
This is also one of the reasons why many major game companies use CG to make promotional videos.
Chasing Light's decision to make CG movies is also based on this idea, in addition to opening up a new track, it can also make Chasing Light jump out of the circle of pure animated films and become the leader of the new track.
After all, even in the world, there is no film company that only makes CG movies, chasing light wants to test the water first, and if it performs well, it can even become the first in China.
Since ancient times, the title of 'first' has been sought after by countless people, and chasing light is no exception.
It's just that the idea is good, but now something is wrong.
The investment in CG movies is too huge, and if you want to make a good movie, the budget far exceeds the investment given by Chasing Light, although the funds are still enough, but Yang Yu has foreseen the future.
Therefore, when he heard that Zhang Yang was by his side, in addition to wanting to get acquainted, he also wanted to see if he could make an investment in Zhang Yang.
I also pulled Wu Wolf because I heard that the other party said that he knew Zhang Yang, and he was introduced by an acquaintance, so it was easier to talk.
He glanced at Wu Wolf, and saw that the other party was just sitting with the old god holding a teacup, looking into the distance, and didn't say anything, and the embarrassed look on his face was a little heavier.
As soon as Zhang Yang saw this scene, he knew that there was a problem, he didn't like hide and seek, so he simply asked directly: "What's wrong?" Director Yang, you have something to say. ”
The babbling Riddler, he was the most annoying.
The crew has a lot of things waiting for them!
Yang Yu pondered for a few seconds, gritted his teeth, took a sip of tea, as if he was emboldening himself, and plucked up the courage to say: "That's the case, the movie "Tongtian" is now short of some funds, I want to ask Director Zhang, is Xuanyu interested in making a fortune?" ”
Investment?
I see.
Zhang Yang's heart was suddenly in his heart.
He and Yang Yu are not familiar with each other, and they thought that the other party really came up to chat and pull the relationship, but he couldn't think of other ideas.
However, he also has some ideas about anime.
Xuanyu has developed to its current scale, and it has a certain strength in movies, TV series, and variety shows, but there has been no development in animation, and no suitable talent has been found, and no animation has been filmed so far.
He holds so many fantasy copyrights in his hands, it's a pity not to make animations.
The animation technology level of chasing light is good, and it would be a good thing if we could negotiate a deeper level of cooperation through investment and make up for the missing part of Xuanyu.
Thinking of this, he simply asked, "Is the name "Tongtian"?" What exactly is it? ”
Seeing that Zhang Yang did not explicitly refuse, and was a little relieved, Yang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
"This name is taken from the Tongtian Sect Master, mainly to tell the story of the Tongtian Sect Master who saw that the disciples of the Sect were too killed and injured during the canonization of the gods, and put out the Zhuxian Sword Formation to face the other four saints, and Wu Wolf played the Tongtian Sect Master in it."
As long as you have seen the myth of the Dragon Kingdom, you will understand the story of the Tongtian Sect Master.
The sage of the interception of the sect, advocating that there is no class in teaching, intercepting the heavenly machine, and the three of Yuan Shi Tianzun and Taishang were each other's brothers, but they were later defeated in the war of the gods, and the disciples of the sect were also killed and injured countless times.
Not only that, the Tongtian Sect Master is also one of the Three Qings of Taoism and has a high status.
Chasing Light is now going to make such a movie, or a CG movie, no wonder there will be a lack of funds.
After all, the four formations of dignified saints and immortals, and they are fighting with other saints, and that kind of scene has to be filmed, and the speed of capital burning can be imagined.
"Is there a script? Show me? ”
Zhang raised his eyebrows and frowned slightly.
Although the subject matter is good, this subject matter is not easy to shoot.
The main reason is that the light chasing company consciously created the Fengshen universe, but the creation was not successful.
After a few years of establishment, in addition to "Nezha", the performance of the other "Jiang Taigong" is not good, and the plot in it has been modified, which is not quite in line with the audience's traditional cognition.
In addition, the protagonist of the movie has a strong personal style, and the plot is not much connected, and the combination is not close enough.
In addition, some of the characters in it are not the same as traditional people's perceptions, so it may be good to release them alone, but to create a movie universe, they must be put together, and then there is a problem.
For example, Taiyi Zhenren in "Nezha" is a fat man, speaks a dialect, and has a very funny image, which is very brilliant in a movie alone.
But if you want to create a movie universe, Taiyi Zhenren will inevitably appear in other movies, and that kind of image may not be suitable.
The battle between the four saints here is fierce, and the four saints are each majestic and majestic, with an amazing momentum, and they are not angry and self-imposing.
As a result, Yuan Shi Tianzun sat down and the disciple was so virtuous, which was a bit too disobedient.
In that way, the whole film style is fragmented, and the impact is really bad.
Like his filming of the "Covering the Sky" series, movies and TV series, the character image is unified before and after, and there is no one movie that changes the style, so that it can be regarded as the same line.
So Zhang Yang wanted to read the movie script before making a decision.
"Brought."
Yang Yu was prepared, and hurriedly took out the script.
"In fact, chasing the light to shoot "Tongtian" also has the idea of wanting to participate in the Fantasy Awards, and the Fantasy Awards have set up an animation category, this genre is not brilliant in the world in our country, but it is even more powerful in the cherry blossom country."
"There are a few animation directors over there who have already said that they want to take away the best animation award, I believe that Mr. Zhang is not willing to let this award fall into the hands of foreigners, right?"
