The castration of the "X" software was actually done as early as after Lu Ping'an got the programming skills, and it took more than half a year to do it one after another.

Until then, he only knew what to do with the "X".

But it can't be said that splitting castration is not possible because he can't program.

Now that you have programming skills, you know how powerful this software really is.

Take "Kung Fu Panda" as an example.

Engage in movie-level 3D animation like "Kung Fu Panda", it is useless to use only a few software, like 3DMAX, MAYA, XSI, ZB and other software on the market now, each software is not flawless, there are advantages and disadvantages, the key is how to use it together, how to use your strengths and avoid weaknesses to make the best animation.

Among them, 3DMAX is the most powerful in polygon modeling and picture rendering, MAYA is the strongest in irregular surface modeling and special effects rendering, the strongest in character skeletal animation, skinning, XSI, and ZB in model detail modification and sculpting.

Masters use a lot of software together, and sometimes film companies even develop a separate set of plug-in embedding software, just to perfectly merge a large number of 3D software.

For a strong film company, its own embedded software will definitely have greater advantages.

And "X" special effect software at this point,It can be understood as a set of the strongest embedded software,Accommodating the functions of various advanced software,All functions are concentrated together,Then use intelligent algorithms,Just like the intelligent input method,A letter,Can give you countless choices,The more instructions, the more accurate it is,Then click to select。

So what Lu Ping'an has to do now is to disassemble the animation module of the "X" software and make a castrated version of the embedding software.

With this software, it can accommodate all the 3D software on the market today, and "X" has its own compatibility mode, so you don't need to consider licensing issues when using it.

Combined with the various features that come with "X", even if it is a castrated version, it can make the animation process a little easier than other companies.

At this point, "X" has left enough room for castration, and Lu Ping'an can't help but praise Goldfinger, otherwise he can't do it for ten years on his own.

Now, the embedding software has been completed, and there are more than 30 related professionals.

Next, on the basis of various world software, train how to use your own software.

When the training is almost over, I use the Venetian short film that has not yet been produced to practice my skills.

The Venetian short film is called "Dinner for a Few", which is a 2D animation, which can also be made into 3D, and the painting style is also very strange and weird, not so elegant, and it is precisely because of the rough and strange painting style that it can become one of the essences of this short film.

Used to practice hands, just right.

"Let's get here today, what do you think of this software?"

After an afternoon of training, Lu Ping'an asked everyone.

"This software is powerful."

"It's easier to use than the ones on the market."

"I'll be able to get started soon."

“.”

More than 30 animators have praised it, and it seems that the situation is good.

"Then eat first, then everyone works hard, and after making the short film, let's try to start "Kung Fu Panda" as soon as possible."

"Understood!"

It took five days for the team to get a basic familiarity with the performance of the chimeric software.

People also started to try to make some simple models.

It's quick to get started, but it will take some time to get better.

But it doesn't matter, it's still okay to deal with films like "Dinner for the Few", and this year's Venice Film Festival submission deadline is at the end of May, and it will take five months to make a ten-minute simple short film, which is not a big problem.

After two more days, after inspecting everyone's familiarity with the software, he decided that the production of the Venetian short film would begin tomorrow.

There are still talents in China, learn fast!

Lu Ping'an issued the script and storyboard, and everyone immediately began to study.

Then, after some shock, everyone began to divide up and work together to try to start making prototypes.

After everything was done, he asked Bao Qingqing: "What about Guorong, why haven't you come back yet?" ”

Bao Qingqing was about to speak, when Guorong's car returned.

Guorong got out of the car, and Lu Ping'an crooked his eyebrows when he saw him, looking incredulous.

Now Guorong has a lot of traces of tree branches scratching, his legs and pants are wet, and his shoes are full of dirt, just like a mud child coming back from the wilderness, which is very buried.

"Brother, what's the situation with you, it can't be that you rolled down the mountain."

"It's raining, isn't it normal to have soil?"

Guorong smiled and patted his trouser legs, not caring about it, and then beckoned Lu Ping'an, "Open the meal, I'm hungry." ”

With that, he walked to the cafeteria.

Lu Ping'an's eyes were puzzled, how could Guorong feel so much better in this state? Is it really that fun to shovel for pandas?

But as long as you are in a good mental state.

Lu Ping'an didn't ask much.

"Let's go, let's go eat too, what's the food in the cafeteria today?"

Bao Qingqing replied: "There is snake meat, I ran into the park in the afternoon!" ”

Lu Ping'an: "I like it!" ”

The two chatted and went to the cafeteria.

Guorong began to share what he had seen and heard today as usual, and his face was bright.

I can't wake up when the panda sleeps with thunder, and when I wake up, my energy is so good that I can't look at it at all, and then I laugh as I speak, and it seems that my mental state is much better than at the beginning.

That's all a meal says.

It's just that Lu Ping'an's nose can always smell the fragrance of bamboo.

Then I thought about it, and the national treasure Baba suddenly appeared in front of me, and I couldn't eat the rice.

"A friend will come over in a few days, Ping, is it convenient to come in here?"

After eating, Guorong asked.

"It's okay to look at the workshop, don't delay too long."

"No problem, it won't bother."

"When are you coming?"

"In about three or four days."

"Then I probably don't have time to entertain, I have to go out."

"You can go and get busy, don't worry about me."

"Okay, don't hold back if you have any questions, call at any time."

After eating, Yan Danchen called: "When will you come back?" ”

"Tomorrow."

"Oh, are you okay over there?"

"It's okay, eat it well, and pet the panda every day, haha."

"You'll be envious of someone else!"

"Okay, it's actually Guorong masturbating every day, I'm so hairy that I don't see it."

The two chatted for a while, and the topic returned to "Time and Space Sins".

"Crimes of Time and Space" is going to be released these days.

Now this schedule is actually not good.

But this year is already a good schedule.

There are Hollywood blockbusters released in March and April.

In March, there will be Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

SARS began in April, and theaters were closed.

In July, it was the summer file, and films like "Time and Space Sin" were dead in that schedule.

So February is the best schedule.

At this time, the remnants of Lu Ping'an are still there.

"Source Code" won a super high box office and word of mouth.

This is of great benefit to his new work.

In addition, "Time and Space Sin" was also shortlisted for last year's Venice Film Festival.

This is yet another propaganda point.

So in fact, the current schedule is actually no worse than the summer file.

Plus the cost of this film is very low.

There is almost no pressure to make money.

So it's just the right time.

That night, Lu Ping'an and the team said hello.

The next day, they flew back to the capital.

On the 19th, "Crimes of Time and Space" was released in Beijing and other coastal cities.

Shortlisted in Venice!

Directed by Lu Ping'an!

Continue to burn the brain and suspense!

Many people just walked into the theater.

However, when they entered the theater, they found out.

There are only four and a half actors in this movie!

Now everyone understands.

The cost of "Time and Space Sins" is ridiculously low!

However, the quality of the film is quite good.

After watching the movie, the first wave of media people and netizens began to sigh:

"Lu Ping'an's movies, none of them are simple!"

"A masterpiece of only five actors!"

"Brain-burning suspense, a standard road peace-style movie."

"I can't understand it once, but I understand it twice."

“。。。”

So a week later, on February 25th.

"Time and Space Sin" successfully won the box office of 11 million and achieved a big profit.

For a time, Lu Ping'an once again became the focus.

At this time, Lu Ping'an had already been in Bashu for several days.

Not long after the release of "Time and Space", when he saw the box office of 1.1 million on the first day, he knew that he didn't care about it.

Profitability is a sure-fire thing.

And this film has already been profitable.

The copyright fee is $1.35 million.

So don't worry about it.

"Yes, so be it."

On the 25th, the Venice short film made two shots at the beginning and the end.

Lu Ping'an nodded and confirmed the pass.

The two shots total 36 seconds, the waves, the rain, the building and the "protagonists of the dinner" in the building's rooms, the camera zooms in, zooms out, and ends.

There are no more complicated "action scenes" in the feature film.

So these two shots are relatively the simplest in the whole film.

It took 15 days to make, which was a bit slow, and it took 10 months to make a 10-minute film, which was not enough to meet the Venice submission deadline in May.

But Lu Ping'an was not worried at all.

The left and right elements and lens breakdowns in the film have been done, and everyone is familiar with the software, and it will be very fast to do after that.

In addition, Lu Ping'an did not prepare for this short film to surpass, as long as the plot is restored.

After all, the core is the drama.

So in the future, the whole film will still be completed within 3 months, just in time for Venice.

"I'll be away in a few days, and I'll be able to communicate at any time if I have any questions."

After confirming, Lu Ping'an and Bao Qingqing, the leader of the project production team, said.

He has already drawn the storyboard script in detail, as long as he follows it, he will not fly, and Lu Ping'an can leave with confidence.

Bao Qingqing's face was full of confidence: "Don't worry." ”

"Gone."

In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Ping'an returned to Beijing again, this time he was going to Lao Mei, and the matter of "Chainsaw" and Oscar came.

If the article does not match the title, there is no need to be surprised, because it is corrected and does not affect the reading.
