As the programs were broadcast one after another, the director team's works were presented one after another, including "Man in the Mirror" by Ling Qi and "The Last Aboriginal on Earth" by Dong Jiayin.
"Man in the Mirror" tells the story of a black-hearted entrepreneur who uses cloning technology to create a younger version of himself and prepares to transplant his brain into the self-aware clone. "Aboriginal" is about imagining the aftermath of the Wasteland War.
The Last Man Abandoned, fighting against mutated plants and animals, tells a reflection on environmental protection.
"Man in the Mirror" is not considered hard-core science fiction. Strictly speaking, it is just a trick. The story is just wrapped in the skin of science fiction. The core is a story that explores ethics and human nature. This is also Lingqi's strength, with hidden edge.
Dong Jiayin realistically depicts the wasteland. Of course, due to various limitations of professional review, although it is a wasteland, it only uses waste gasoline barrels. Some scrapped industrial and auto parts found at the scrap station are piled up into a wasteland.
It looks like dirt. As for the dilapidated city in the background, we used intelligent software to process it. Because we can only use professional entry-level software, the processing effect is limited. That is to say, the texture is not good. You can still see it, but there are some differences.
A feeling of emptiness that is too real.
This is actually a difficulty and problem that the entire directing team faces.
The most difficult thing in special effects is to achieve reality, the so-called texture. If you want to create a fantasy product with a realistic feel, so that things that only exist in people's imagination can exist as if they were real, this requires modeling.
, the processes and technologies of materials, animation, lighting, and rendering require not only powerful software, but also top-notch hardware support.
Of course, now you can purchase cloud resources for hardware, which can be cheaper than ordinary hardware, but it is only one-third cheaper. Something worth millions is still worth millions.
The director team has very little rice to cook, but they have to prepare a big banquet.
However, everyone still handed over their dishes based on the limited time and technical conditions at hand.
Regarding the quality of science fiction works, due to the production cost, of course they are not strong. This is a common phenomenon. Fortunately, platform audiences have expectations for this and cannot be as picky as a real blockbuster movie. So the point is still to watch
How to present a story.
Of course, there are also some parts where the story is poorly completed and rough. Ling Qi’s story has some flaws. Dong Jiayin’s “Aborigines” also had some highlights due to the special effects. But the flaws are basically outweighed by the flaws.
When the fourth episode was broadcast, many people sat in front of the computer in advance or on time, or found a comfortable position on the sofa or bed with their mobile phones and opened Pineapple.com.
Ning Tao, the host of the Xiaopingtou guest group, appeared in the guest room and gave a warm-up first. He talked about many of the ideas and creativity of young people shown in this program, as well as the issues of division of labor and collaboration. These are all part of the program.
A sight worth talking about.
Then the main course of this period is served.
Lin Yuan's work "Look at That Cat" is shown. It is actually an animation, but the style has a retro sci-fi feel. The robots are all made of copper and the protagonist is a cat wandering in a future city. What a wonderful thing.
The wonderful thing is that you experience future technology from the perspective of a cat. There is no human being, and the future space and time occupied by artificial intelligence is full of robots, but everyone is flattering to the cat and actually very tender. This card is played very well.
When I came out, the comment area and the barrage were all flooded, and the main idea was that it was cute.
In the evaluation, the guests unanimously expressed favorable comments. The praise of this work was also expected, so when the film was first completed, Pineapple.com signed a peripheral sales contract with Lin Yuan for "Quick Cat" and changed hands.
So he sent it to Chen Jiaqian's design company. Now according to Chen Yi
According to Wen's suggestion, the Chen family, which has made a fortune in stress relief toys, has a large amount of money and a stable cash flow. In this world, nothing can make people more secure than this thing. With these capital, Honghan
Plan to open a design company to be responsible for IP image design and customization.
Chen Yiwen suggested that we name it "Tiangongyuan". Tiangongyuan will design and Honghan Factory will produce. Of course, this is preliminary. It is backed by a production base in Qingshan. Chen Yiwen intends to integrate it. In the future, this place can continuously produce additional output.
Export peripheral products with IP value.
Of course, the biggest project at the moment has already begun. Once the filming of Liu Qirong's Journey to the West is successful, this will be a gold mine.
The work of the same period as Lin Yuan is Ding Shimei's "Galaxy Cruise". The opening chapter shows a steamship falling from the sky and landing on the roadside in the wilderness. Then in this smoky scene, a graceful man wearing a coat appears.
The woman carried her luggage, passed through the gangway, and boarded this cruise ship that could travel between the stars. This seemed to be a story about a woman traveling through the stars in search of her hometown. It was full of romantic ideas that intertwined science fiction and fantasy.
The world view is that the universe is unified and prosperous. The scene is also presented when the cruise ship docks and encounters different alien races from different planets, and learns about the past deeds through their stories. Later we learned that Homo sapiens unified the galaxy, but because of artificial
Intelligence leads to the paralysis of the universe. Homo sapiens eventually perish together with artificial intelligence. Now there is no more homo sapiens to be found. The information in the woman's luggage indicates that she is most likely to be a homo sapiens.
Descendants, so she knew about the existence of the space cruise ship and knew that she was going to the hometown where Homo sapiens was born. When the woman set foot on the last stop, she felt a strong call. Finally, she had an enlightenment in front of a prehistoric building in the exhibition and remembered everything. It turned out that
She is the backup left by the artificial intelligence of the past, stored in this mechanical body, in order to come to the body of the planet where it was born and reawaken herself, thus starting another reincarnation.
The reversal of the story caused the guest room to exclaim "Digging for lotus roots!", which was the same as at the end of Lin Yuan's work.
But the guests were obviously much more interested.
"I think Ding Shimei is a pretty good girl, very smart. Did you notice that even though there is no big scene, I don't actually think the special effects are bad! The important thing is to know how to use tricks, including the steam wheel at the beginning, which was originally supposed to be high-quality.
The giant wheel is hard
, but they used smoke and blurred light and shadow filters, including flashback scenes with war in the back, all presented through this light and shadow mask filter or animation! There is no need to show any big scenes at all,
But it allows people to spontaneously make up the picture!"
"The story is also unfinished, leaving suspense as to whether there will be another artificial intelligence disaster, or whether the heroine Eve still retains her humanity. There is a lot of room for discussion."
During the subsequent professional judges' comments, Wang Qiutong looked at each other and said with a smile, "These two are probably the ceiling for these young creators."
After the release of the fourth episode, two hit works by Lin Yuan and Ding Shimei charged forward and launched an impact on the list. The popularity of the program reached 23, it was on several hot searches, and there were many video creators on the short video platform.
Recommended, the ranking jumped to the sixth place among domestic variety shows in the same period. It left behind a large number of variety shows produced by major platforms and satellite TV.
What this brings about is the rise in fame of all the members of the director team. In the past, each of them only had a few thousand or at most tens of thousands of fans. The worst Qin Junbo has risen to 200,000 followers, and there are several girls without exception.
All of them exceeded 500,000. Jia Libo has 300,000 fans, Lin Yuan has 340,000, and Ding Shimei usually has a scarf account called "Ding Mei Xiao Mian Jiao". She usually posts updates, takes photos of campus scenery, or in games.
Posting screenshots. I used to be a fan on campus, but now I have been found out by following the clues. The number of fans has soared from 3,000 to 560,000. The latest one has more than 10,000 likes, and social apps on my phone are red every day.
The long list of unread numbers is a bit scary. Of course, Chen Yiwen did not authenticate and disclose his scarf, otherwise there would be many people waiting to see how popular Chen Yiwen is.
At this time, all the young directors who participated in the program production process and were still college students felt the communication effect and influence brought by the program after it was broadcast.
The key is that this program from a third-tier fringe video station has repeatedly defeated many programs funded by the capital and power behind the rankings. It not only broke into the top ten, but also directly reached the sixth place in the domestic rankings. This is not the case with that.
Produced by a huge amount of publicity resources, this data means a large part of the tap water, the spontaneous recommendation and viewing of people who agree with this program, and the popularity value rises from one issue to the next, which means that the creativity and program are bursting.
Fascinating mechanics.
Everyone has become a popular figure in their respective schools. In the past, they were more or less famous, but that only belonged to the popularity of students within the campus. For example, what positions did you hold, what awards did you win, or what other people did you know?
While you were still relying on your parents to support your tuition and living expenses, you were already able to take on private jobs to support yourself and start a business. These are all the reasons why you are famous.
There are also some students with special status, who are entertainers or celebrities. They have become famous and want to show off. Everyone knows what is going on with the former. They fall into the category of deviating from ordinary people. Generally, they don’t have much time in school, so don’t expect them to be like normal people.
Students generally attend classes at 3:00 a.m. every day, and attend various classes in a down-to-earth manner.
I was studying in college, and no one paid any attention to me when I bumped into him. This kind of nature is different from the situation where the directing team is a student in school, and its reputation has risen from scratch. The former is equivalent to airborne, and it belongs to nothingness. The latter
It is a trajectory of struggle that everyone can see and an inspirational benchmark.
For a while, everyone was among the top figures in the school. More importantly, because of the broadcast of the program, some advertisers, video platform websites, and even people from TV stations came over frequently, some asking for advertisements, some asking for interviews, and others.
There are people who want to recruit people and want to cooperate with them. They are invited to enter their own website platform to shoot and produce new programs, and they can join them temporarily.
The most uncomfortable thing is those who were recruited by various platforms through the "Youth Talent Reserve Plan" as second-tier substitutes after this group of directors was hidden during the College Student Film Festival. They themselves are also six college students and belong to the ten thousand year old class.
The position of second oldest and third oldest was originally thought to be in the film festival.
The director team was implicated, and they became the biggest winners. As a result, after signing with the platform, apart from receiving some small funding, resources and projects, and even promotion, they felt that they were being delayed. As a result, the director team who had been hidden in the past,
Suddenly it became popular on the Internet and in universities in this way.
The limelight seems to be even greater than when I won the award at the film festival.
Who can I ask to explain this change?

After the update was restored, Kavin felt like he had a dream, and he was still very moved after waking up.
