fantasy blockbuster era

Chapter 253

"Everyone, everyone should have read the script, right?"

Zhang Yang sat at the top, holding the script in his hand.

After seeing everyone nodding, he said directly: "I won't say anything superfluous, let's discuss the special effects of the movie that need attention."

"First of all, everyone must be clear, this is an oriental fantasy movie!"

"Since it is an oriental fantasy movie, the special effects in the movie must be made in line with the oriental culture and aesthetics of the oriental people, and no tampering is allowed. This is the most basic and most important point!"

What he wants to promote is oriental fantasy culture, not just fantasy. He absolutely does not allow the images produced in the movie to become strange and unlike things.

This round of upsurge in fantasy movies has made the domestic special effects business in short supply. Among the people Xuanyu invited, in addition to the natives of the Dragon Kingdom, there are also some talents from the East Universe Kingdom and the West Beauty Kingdom.

Xuanyu's own people are okay, but they are afraid that the remaining foreign companies may bring in private goods.

There is a strange phenomenon in the movie circle of Longguo.

A joint venture film co-produced by many things, no matter how large the investment, no matter how well-produced, no matter how amazing the special effects are, it will often not get a good box office when it is released in Longguo.

The reason is that the things presented in the movie do not conform to the image in traditional oriental culture at all.

For example, there was a monster movie "The Great Wall" a few years ago.

Just looking at the name, the audience would never have imagined that the monster that looks like a large lizard in this movie is actually a glutton in traditional mythology!
Whose Taotie looks like this?
Another movie is clearly about the story of the East, but in the end it turns out that two foreigners save the world!
This is something Zhang Yang absolutely cannot tolerate.

Every image in the movie "Shading the Sky 2" must be an ancient image with oriental charm, and the appearance of several Dark Lords must also be the appearance of the people of the Dragon Kingdom. It is advocated to make the picture an aesthetic image under Western culture, and it cannot be made into a combination of Chinese and Western, it must be a complete oriental image!

"In this movie, the special effects scenes created by everyone must be created strictly in accordance with the artwork given by Xuanyu, and random deletions and modifications are not allowed."

"If someone messes around."

Zhang Yang sneered.

"At your own risk!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Yang focused his attention on the direction where the people from foreign special effects companies were sitting.

The cold eyes made the representatives of several foreign special effects companies tense up.

He was afraid that some of these people would act recklessly and not follow the rules. Complaints and so on in the later stage would be ignored, and it would be a big deal to affect the film creation.

"understand!"

No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, on the surface everyone agrees with one voice.

Zhang Yang didn't continue talking, he just stopped there to give a precaution to prevent some people from really creating randomly.

"Everyone just needs to know what's going on."

Withdrawing his gaze, he turned to look at Liang Bing: "Liang Bing, send out the drawing."

"it is good!"

Liang Bing nodded in response, took out several stacks of drawings from the bags of several colleagues behind him, and distributed them to everyone present one by one.

Zhang Yang also took a copy in his hand.

He picked one up and showed it.

"These are the drawings of several fights and backgrounds in the movie "Shadow 2", please take a look."

The sound of paper being turned was immediately heard in the conference room.

There are exquisite pictures on the manuscript.

During the audition period, Liang Bing took the lead and led the rest of the art department to rush to draw the drafts overnight.

According to Zhang Yang's request, the scenes on Chengxian Road Battlefield, Ji's Mansion, Hangu Pass, and some scenes on the earth that happened in the whole play were recreated with real prototypes, making it look more like a fantasy world in the scene.

After all, although the scenery in reality is beautiful, it obviously does not match the scenery in "Shading the Sky".

Nothing else, just a tree.

Who can be sure that in a place like the Beidou Star Territory where you can practice, the trees will look the same as those on Earth?
Let's talk about animals.

They are all on different planets. Are the animals still lions and tigers?
So like some background settings, all the sketches have been modified more brilliantly and exaggeratedly.

In addition to the sketches of the scenes, there are also several fights to be filmed in the movie and the paper images of the six forbidden zones.

For the fighting part, Liang Bing thought hard and drew many exquisite battle scenes.

There is a fight between Ye Fan's saint body and the super body after the completion of the holy body, and there is also a battle where the ruthless emperor bathes in the fairy light to suppress the dark turmoil on the edge of the universe, and there are scenes of the emperor's soldiers flying across the sky, destroying billions of stars.

The six forbidden areas have also pre-painted several color pictures of characters.

Everyone above is wearing battle armor, bathed in darkness, ruthless, domineering and unparalleled.

However, the faces of the above characters are all his own imagination.

This will definitely not work.

In the later stage, it must be re-modified according to the appearance of several selected actors.

Otherwise, the actors will be recruited in vain, and the faces of the characters presented will not seem real enough.

Zhang Yang took a picture of the drawing and said: "These drafts are preliminary settings, let everyone know for now, and we will make changes according to the actual situation after the official start-up."

"Everyone's current task is to read through the manuscript, get a rough overall image, keep it in your mind, and bring up any parts that you think are inappropriate, so as to avoid disputes after starting the machine."

"Now, let's start discussing if you have any ideas."

Zhang Yang waved his hand.

With the main tone set by him, everyone immediately began to discuss.

"I think it should be changed here. The scene is too realistic and too common. I should add something more exaggerated and different from the real world."

"Does the sound and light special effects of this battle need to be modified?"

"."

It has to be said that none of the people present are just trying to sell someone else's business.

Everyone who can reach the top level in an international special effects company has strong technical skills.

Under the leadership of Zhang Yang, with the assistance of Liang Bing and Lu Lecheng.

In the next month, the whole film's battle scenes, venue backgrounds, character costumes, appearances, etc. need to use special effects, all of which have a general framework. You can modify it as appropriate.

In addition, Zhang Yang also took advantage of this time to complete the text and picture storyboards for the entire film.

In the script, there are also basic plans for some issues such as the use of the entire movie lens, lighting angles, and the distant and near scenes of the characters.

It is equivalent to saying that although the movie has not officially started shooting, Zhang Yang already has a basic outline in his mind.

mid-April.

All the preliminary preparations for "Shading the Sky 2" are ready.

Xuanyu officially issued an announcement that "Shading the Sky 2" is officially launched!
The whole crew went up and down, led by Zhang Yang, and rushed to the first shooting location!
