Post-shadow Development Plan

It has been said before that the cost and effect of special effects are an exponential function.

Investing 7000 million RMB in special effects will not be much different from [-] million RMB in special effects.

That being the case, why not use part of the money invested in special effects to hire big stars?

Anyway, the special effects are all at the same level, so it's better to increase the bargaining chip of the movie in other places.

This is a very simple truth, and it is also a multiple-choice question that elementary school students will do.

But it is certainly not a result that everyone can accept.

On the other hand, special effects production is not a matter of one or two teams, but a highly industrialized field.

Although the production process of special effects is similar all over the world, the final effect is very different.

No matter how strong the general special effects studio is, it can only do textures and so on. If you want to unify these materials and meet the highest standards, only Hollywood can do it in the world.

Not only because Hollywood is willing to spend money on special effects, but also because they know how to use special effects teams.

This is why Nanaya never thought of developing world-class special effects in Japan.

He has no obligation to revitalize the Japanese special effects industry, so of course it is how to make it convenient for him to make movies.

Hollywood is the place with the highest level of special effects in the world, so just use them to achieve the effects you need.

And after more than ten years of experience, Qiye has long been accustomed to using Hollywood's process to make movies.

In Qiye's crew, the special effects team is a very important part.

This sentence is not just talking. From the moment the film project was approved, he never separated the special effects team from the crew.

In order to facilitate management, many film crews clearly divide film production into pre-production and post-production, and separate the two parts from each other.

This approach is very stupid in the eyes of Qiye.

To get the best special effects, the shooting team needs to communicate with the special effects team all the time.

Seven nights did just that.

Before the production starts, Qiye must ensure that all the special effects companies involved in "The Final Chapter" have a full understanding of the content they are producing.

As the chief director of special effects, the special effects department of Jiufeng Entertainment, which acts as the brain of the special effects production, will fully communicate with Qiye immediately to confirm his ideas and production requirements for all shots.

Then Jiufeng Entertainment's special effects department divided the tasks at hand according to Qiye's requirements, and assigned them after specifying the specific production requirements.

For those particularly critical shots, Qiye will draw the storyboards in advance, and the special effects team will first produce primary shots with animation based on the storyboards and shooting materials.

Wait until Qiye confirms, and then slowly process it into the final finished lens.

Of course, different directors have different attitudes towards special effects production.

Qiye is not from a technical background, so he doesn't know much about the details of special effects production.

He will only put forward his own requirements, and then let the special effects team achieve the ideal shot in his mind.

The representative opposite to the Qiye style is James Cameron.

Although this guy is a truck driver, he is very obsessed with special effects.

This guy will not only take the initiative to follow up the progress of special effects production, but also is very concerned about the process of making special effects.

Sometimes, Cameron will work with the special effects team to overcome the difficulties in special effects and push the special effects technology forward.

But a director like Cameron is really rare. Hollywood has developed so far. Apart from Cameron, only George Lucas is half of the people who belong to this type of director, and the others are gone.

So Qiye didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did.

After all, it is enough for the cook to know how to make lamb chops. I have never heard of a cook who can raise sheep.

When assigning tasks to the special effects team and adding special effects to the shots, Qiye continued to communicate with his team about the end of the film.

Movie endings and opening credits are not ambiguous for a movie.

Not only because these two parts will impress the audience, but also because there are too many interests involved.

At the beginning, Nanaya planned to publish the subtitle list of actors in order according to their job descriptions, so that after all the servants appeared, the last two to appear were the two Masters Inukai and Kujo Kaze.

But this method did not get the consent of the actors.

The reason is simple, so there is no way to highlight heavyweight actors.

A big star is likely to be followed by a small actor.

This way of appearing on the list does not meet the requirements of the Screen Actors Union.

Qiye didn't want to follow Lucas and fall out with the trade union, so he had to give up this proposal.

After that, Qiye thought about learning "Avengers 1", so that the most distinctive objects of each character appeared once.

In "Avengers", there are Iron Man's armor, Captain America's shield, Thor's hammer and so on.

In "The Final Chapter", each servant's treasure can be used instead.

But then Qiye discovered that it was still a bit difficult to do so.

Because some servants' treasures are not weapons, such as Uncle B's Twelve Trials.

Although it is not impossible to use a stone ax instead, it always feels that the style is too poor.
