"But there are still a few areas that need improvement. One is that you can slow down the picture a little, and then combine the speed and slowness. When the knife hits the opponent, you can do a short freeze frame. After it is over,

You can hurry up. The second thing is that I want you to make the red Spartan uniforms a little brighter, and also make the Persian warriors' uniforms a little darker. I need a strong contrast, a fierce contrast!"

Silla stopped smiling and nodded: "Okay, boss, I'll finish it soon."

With that said, Siro arranged the tasks, and a large group of people were typing on the keyboard again. Taking advantage of this gap, the special effects artist from Industrial Light and Magic on the side handed over the completed production of the previous scene to Zhou Shaoming.

It was a scene where Kelly danced in the water and became an oracle.

Holding his breath, Zhou Shaoming watched this scene unfold in front of him with great anticipation. At the filming site that day, the strange and seductive dance of the underwater oracle made even his well-informed self unable to bear it.

, and now, what will it look like?

Through software, the visual effects artists of Industrial Light and Magic made the water in the pool originally shot completely disappear, and was replaced by an ethereal and dark background.

The biggest difficulty in this scene is the production of smoke. In this scene, the character "Oracle" needs to interact with the wisps of smoke around her. The special effects staff of Industrial Light and Magic conducted some research work and finally determined

The best method is to use cloth operations on the three-dimensional geometry and deform it through bone chains. Although this method is good, it requires a lot of post-cleaning work.

The smoke must be generated from hot coals. The smoke must be meshed in fusion, a mask drawn in a specific area, color corrected and glare added to simulate light effects. Finally, the transparency must be adjusted to make the smoke

Integrate into the scene. In fusion, the smoke shot on film is also combined, and all elements are matched through color correction, making the real smoke and CG smoke look the same.

The embers of the fire and a large number of sparks. This effect can be achieved using fusion. The details of the movement, rotation and randomness of the sparks fully meet the requirements of reality. All of this does not look like it was shot using computer technology, as if. That is God.

masterpiece!

Yes, the gods of the film industry are the directors who give life to the film and the staff at all levels who make it flesh and blood.

Everyone in the film industry is creating wonderful, unique and imaginative worlds that leave people stunned!

And Zhou Shaoming is slowly creating his own world, and those movies that make people applaud and even love them crazy are his masterpieces!

Hearing the detailed explanations from the special effects personnel of Industrial Light and Magic, a lot of professional terms were forced into his ears. After Zhou Shaoming watched the clip carefully, he nodded with satisfaction and decided that this scene was OK!

This dance, with the help of modern technology, is really weird and enchanting and arouses people's hearts!

Siro also quickly completed the special effects for the previous scene. Zhou Shaoming finally smiled with satisfaction. At this time, Siro said to Zhou Shaoming: "Boss, look, here is the war beast you asked to design before. I

They are all designed based on images from other games and comics. Which one do you want to see first? I will show you his movements."

After hearing this, Zhou Shaoming nodded, and then looked at the desktop of John's dedicated computer. At this time, there were many strange creatures on it.

"Let's take a look at this first." Zhou Shaoming pointed at the image of a giant elephant and said.

Based on Zhou Shaoming's words, Silla directly clicked on that image. Then several images of elephants appeared in front of Zhou Shaoming, and they were all running. At this time, all elephants displayed were skinless elephants.

.You can even see the muscles on their bodies constantly contracting as they run.

This made Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but sigh at Siro's strength. It was not an easy task to be able to simulate the virtual image completely according to the real species.

This greatly ensures the vividness of the creature's image and gives the audience the illusion that the creature seems to have originally existed. In fact, these creatures are all created using computer special effects.

"Boss, which image do you want?" Siro said with a smile, seemingly satisfied with his work.

Looking at these elephants, Zhou Shaoming's thoughts seemed to drift to the Lord of the Rings. Speaking of fantasy, the Lord of the Rings is full of such fantastic creatures. Zhou Shaoming still remembers that in the third part of the Lord of the Rings series, Zhou Shaoming still remembers

At that time, a terrifying giant war elephant seemed to appear. This giant elephant was as high as a city wall and had a tower on it that could allow people to sit on it.

Zhou Shaoming doesn't mind borrowing ideas from a few years later, but he doesn't want to be too out of touch with reality. After all, The Lord of the Rings is a magical masterpiece. The more imagination the better, and his Three Hundred is just a reproduction of history. Although it can be enhanced and fantasized,

But it is impossible to create an elephant more than ten meters tall.

Thinking in his mind, Zhou Shaoming said: "I don't think this elephant can meet my requirements. What I need is an elephant that can be used as a war machine. You can try to exaggerate the elephant a little bit."

, zoom in a little, and then the elephant’s body is armed with sharp knife-like armor, and it runs wildly, shaking the earth, and leaving all the spectators dumbfounded.”

After finishing speaking, Zhou Shaoming pictured the scene in his mind and looked at John with a smile.

After listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, Silla was stunned for a long time, as if she was sketching the image in her mind. Then, as if she thought of something, Silla quickly started operating the computer.

Not long after, a brand new image of a giant elephant appeared on the computer. It was about four meters tall. The Spartan warrior placed next to this giant elephant as a reference seemed not worth fighting at all, and this elephant

There are two huge tusks that are completely unconventional.

The skin of this giant elephant was completely covered with weapons and was covered with shining sharp knives, revealing the face of the God of Death ferociously.

"It's incredible. This idea is just a little crazy. Boss, do you think the Spartans can defeat this behemoth?" Even Ciro seemed a little incredible about the monster he designed.

After hearing this, Zhou Shaoming smiled slightly, and then said: "This is Sparta, don't worry, I will let the actors deal with this guy!"

"Okay, boss, you have successfully convinced me, then we will use this image?" John still couldn't believe it.

Zhou Shaoming smiled helplessly. Even though this giant elephant was already very huge, the one in Lord of the Rings was even more exaggerated. It was tens of meters in height. For such a huge elephant, even the Elf Prince’s little one couldn’t bear it.

Xiao Yijian was killed. Isn't it possible that the Spartans still can't deal with this giant elephant, which is only four meters tall?

Well, the deification of Spartan warriors is normal, this is just a movie! Can the special effects without impact still attract the audience to pay willingly?

This can be regarded as a small trick for The Lord of the Rings, so that they have to think of other tricks in the third part, and the battle elephant trick already belongs to Zhou Shaoming!

Thinking of this, Zhou Shaoming smiled at Silla and said, "Have you ever seen three hundred warriors wearing red cloaks who dare to charge into battle?"

Siro was amused by Zhou Shaoming's joke. Indeed, the Spartans in history were not like the movie shot by Zhou Shaoming. Hundreds of people were rushing around and killing each other, as if they were entering an uninhabited land.

You will never get tired. In real history, Spartan warriors wore heavy armor and relied on the terrain of Thermopylae to attack the enemy.

The 300 Spartans filmed by Zhou Shaoming infinitely exaggerates the image of this Spartan warrior. However, isn't this what the audience is pursuing?

Maybe this world's literary films or films that reveal human nature are more popular with media critics, but the intention of most viewers is very simple. Why go to watch a popcorn movie with a Coke and popcorn?

Isn’t it just about relaxing after hard work?

Isn't it just simple and looking for the word "cool"?

Don’t you just want to give yourself a chance to fantasize, so that you, who is humble in reality, can imagine in these short two hours that you are also a fearless fighter wearing a red cloak?

Since some people like any movie and some don't, then the movie only exists for the people who like it!

Watching three hundred men in cloaks and holding machetes bravely charge into battle, slashing enemies as easily as cutting watermelons, and completing miracles that only gods can accomplish, the audience can only imagine that there are more enjoyable war movies than this.

Of?

Zhou Shaoming really captured the American psyche. After the 729 incident, the people all needed something to vent to. If Zhou Shaoming made the image of the Spartan warriors satisfactory, who would come to see it?

So now Zhou Shaoming ignored Silla's skepticism and directly demanded that this image be exaggerated to the greatest extent possible, but within a reasonable range.

This was very painful for Siro. Every time he designed an image, he felt that there was a hint of reality in the exaggeration, and a hint of exaggeration in reality. However, Zhou Shaoming would still answer him without hesitation: "No, it's not enough to impress me yet."

.”

And whenever Silla asked what was missing that didn't impress him, Zhou Shaoming would always answer him calmly.

"Because this is Sparta! Come on!"

"Okay, you are the boss, I need to do my job well and impress you." Silla thought in her heart, and then she could only use her brain desperately to help Zhou Shaoming improve the visual effects to the point where even he could

To the point of disbelief.

Whenever Siro looks back at this past event, he will always sigh that moving Zhou Shaoming's heart is as difficult as conquering the moon, but once he is moved, even he will find that unknowingly, the visual special effects have reached
Chapter completed!
