Chapter 412: Screening and Broadcasting

3DIMAX, Wu Yuan is actually already using this technology.

The movie "Interstellar" was shot with a 70mm IMAX camera, and it was also shot using Cameron's shooting method.

3D Virtual Image Capture System.

This thing was developed by James Cameron and Vince Pace.

This system uses two Sony HDCF950 HD cameras to create a stereoscopic environment.

To put it simply, it is to shoot with two cameras together, by matching different filters for the lens, when the subject enters the lens, different parts of the original image are eliminated, just like the left and right eyes of a person, providing different perspectives and feeding back to the brain to form a three-dimensional perspective, which is more three-dimensional.

The technology itself is not complicated, the important thing is that the person who came up with the idea is very powerful.

That is why it is said that Cameron's place in the history of world cinema cannot be shaken.

Since Cameron first applied this system to the IMAX movie "Ghost of the Abyss" in 2003, in the following decades, most 3D movies have also been shot using this method, even including various 3D videos, 3D concert recording, etc., all of which were learned by Cameron.

He blazed a new trail in the field of photography.

Wu Yuan explored it himself and learned from Cameron to engage in this 3D shooting method, but he was still interested in the shooting equipment that Cameron and Vince Pace had personally modified and wanted to rent it to try it.

Not to mention anything else, just the same style of "Avatar" is enough to make Wu Yuan curious, and it can also add some gimmicks to the movie.

Of course, the movie they shoot with a 3D system when they shoot is different from the 2D to 3D movies that will emerge in the next year or two.

The so-called 2D to 3D is to shoot with a camera when shooting, and then divide the picture into two sides during post-production, and convert 2D to 3D through post-production, which will produce a rough 3D movie effect.

When 3D technology was at its hottest in later generations, many love movies without special effects could be made in 3D versions to provide audience choice.

After all, 3D tickets are more expensive and earn more.

It is foreseeable that after "Avatar" became popular around the world and created a new box office miracle, in the next year or two, a large number of 2D to 3D movies will emerge in North America, even if it is just for this gimmick, under the banner of "3D movies", you can rub a lot of box office!

And among these 2D to 3D movies, the original 3DIMAX version of "Interstellar" will definitely stand out!

The biggest beneficiary of the 3DIMAX market opened up by "Avatar" will be "Interstellar"!

Oh, and Inception.

"I'm already looking forward to the release of Interstellar now." Wu Yuan said with a smile on the corner of his mouth and Liu Yifei: "After Director Cameron has created a precedent, it is estimated that hundreds of IMAX giant screen theaters can be built in North America a year, which is cheaper for us." ”

The box office of "Avatar" exploded, but most of them were still provided by the 2D version or the ordinary 3D version, and the real 3DIMAX giant screen theaters, even in North America, were very few in number, and they were just beginning to rise.

Of the nearly 500 million box office in North America, less than 50 million of the box office is provided by 3DIMAX, which accounts for one-tenth of the total box office!

This is also a big regret for "Avatar".

Therefore, this movie will be re-screened in various countries later, just to allow the audience to go into the cinema to see the full version of the movie when the number of 3DIMAX theaters is enough.

Now that Avatar is in North America, 3DIMAX movie tickets can be said to be hard to find, and they can't be bought at all, and even scalpers have doubled their sales, and they are still snapped up for the first time.

By the time "Interstellar" is released, the 3DIMAX theaters in North America are conservatively estimated to be at least doubled, and the price of 3DIMAX movie tickets is more than double that of ordinary tickets.

At that time, how good the box office will be, Wu Yuan can't even think about it!

With a bright smile on his face, Wu Yuan also sighed with pity: "It's a pity that there are not many 3DIMAX theaters in China, even if you start building it now, when "Interstellar" is released, you won't be able to build a few." ”

"And the theater of 3DIMAX is too expensive, and the movie tickets will also be very expensive, which is a bit extravagant for Chinese audiences."

Not to mention now, even ten years later, a movie ticket of more than 100 in the Wanda 3DIMAX theater is not the first choice of the public, and most people still choose the cheaper Huaxia giant screen or ordinary 3D hall.

It would be nice if the price of the 3DIMAX theater could be lowered, but unfortunately, Wu Yuan couldn't do it.

"Senior brother, compared to "Avatar", we should pay more attention to the broadcast of "Ghosts" now." Liu Yifei patted Wu Yuan's back with a black line on his face, and his tone was very dissatisfied.

This is the first TV series she starred in with her brother, and the two of them are still acting as a couple, but Wu Yuan didn't pay much attention to it, and was all concerned about the new movie of a white-bearded old man.

It's also so discouraging!

"Ahh Wu Yuan smiled awkwardly, clapped his hands and said, "Attention, of course I pay attention!" ”

"What I'm most concerned about now is the broadcast of "Ghosts."

"Although "Avatar" is also being released in South Korea, the explosion of the movie still does not affect the TV drama market."

"The highest rating of "Ghost" hit 4.2% yesterday, which is already a record for the ratings of a Korean cable pay TV station."

"And the first broadcast has a very good reputation, and now the Korean Internet is discussing this movie."

"It is said that you are beautiful, and it is not inconsistent at all to play a high school student, you are going to be tender out of the water."

"Of course, there are many people who praise me for being very handsome, it's a pity to be just a director."

"And Li Dongxu, this kid, he is really handsome, it is still effective for him to lose ten pounds, as soon as the hell messenger appeared, I don't know how many fans were crazy about it."

"4.2% ratings?" Liu Yifei frowned, a little dissatisfied with this number.

Don't look at this number is very powerful in China, but on the Korean side, the high-rated TV dramas of the three major TV stations can have more than 60% ratings if you don't understand it, which can be called an exaggeration.

No way, there are not many free TV stations in South Korea, 99% of the ratings are in the hands of the three major TV stations, once a TV station releases a hit drama, it is as easy as drinking water to directly rush the ratings to more than 60%.

"You can't compare the ratings of free stations with paid stations." Wu Yuan saw Liu Yifei's thoughts, and explained with a smile: "If you want to see the pay desk, it costs money. ”

"Before 'Ghosts,' tvN's ratings were 0.0 percentage points, not even 1%, but now it's multiplied many times all at once."

"Moreover, our show is not only broadcast on TV, but also on the Internet."

"The word-of-mouth spread after the TV station was broadcast, and many Korean viewers who were reluctant to subscribe to the paid station went online to find resources to watch."

"Our Light and Shadow Express South Korea Station, this time it's really going to take off!" (End of chapter)
