"Empire of Mermaids" is a big-budget movie with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. It is very famous at this time. It is said that the project was started in 2009. It is very mysterious. The money was indeed spent and the studio was rented. Now Fang Yi
I saw the special effects shots of "Empire of Mermaids" here at base.
It is a movie that really existed.
However, its special effects shots are rough, cheap and inferior. The art quality is not worth mentioning.
Lao Ke noticed Fang Yi's expression and said before he asked, "Fang, this is not a question of our level, it is a question of funding...how much money to give, how many things to do, one hundred thousand is the quality of one hundred thousand, tens of millions
It’s worth tens of millions of dollars, what do you think? That’s fair.”
Lao Ke became interested and showed Fang Yi the source video they had obtained, and reminded him, "Fang, you must not reveal these things, otherwise my company will not be able to continue... I believe it will soon
It will also become our common company."
He emphasized the word "we".
A short video was played in front of Fang Yi. Suddenly, he saw a very familiar person. This person's face was wrapped in a strange special suit. Despite this, her general outline could still be seen.
"stop."
Fang Yi took the mouse and enlarged the area to take a look.
Yes, this person is Liu Mi.
Liu Mi filmed this Hollywood blockbuster?
Does she know how the special effects company evaluates her movie now?
Fang Yi's expression turned serious.
Lao Ke thought he was questioning Base's technology, so he explained again, "Fang, if you give me enough money, you can also make oriental blockbusters. If the movie you see now is used as a standard,
I'm afraid you can shoot him right away and trample him under your feet, you have the strength."
Fang Yi looked at the screen blankly, and Lao Ke continued, "After all, you are the most famous idol in this country, should I call you that? Well, you are an actor and a director... You can easily get something better than this.
Lots of movies.”
Lao Ke used the keyboard to switch to the next photo... After everything was put away, he saw Fang Yi switching the photo back to the original one.
Lao Ke made a mockery common among Americans and shrugged, "Yes, this is the most shocking still. Are you also impressed? The production level is like shit. I hope we can save it in the later stage."
You think it’s funny too, right?”
Fang Yi squeezed out a smile. He and Guo Fan walked along the corridor on the second floor to another staircase. Base is currently located on a low-rise building in the suburbs of Beijing. When it is sunny, the sun will shine from the top.
It is shot down from above, and then divided into many parts by windows without a sense of design, resulting in light and dark color blocks.
Guo Fan felt that he had finally accomplished a major task. He stepped on the mottled color blocks and said with a smile, "Director Fang, it's really interesting. With the same beam of light, some can shine on me, while others are blocked by the iron sheet.
I can’t see it coming in, there’s no reason…”
Looking at Fang Yi, whose face was flickering in and out of light, he said, "Because it was like this from the beginning. It seems that even light has good luck and bad luck."
——Fang Yi Studio opened next to the Souhu Building. This studio has expanded to an entire floor. In addition to the management team led by Sister Zhen, it now also includes a film crew composed of Guo Fan and others.
In addition, in order for Fang Yi to test DJ's equipment, there is a large empty room that belongs to him. Occasionally, the testing team from DJ will take up a few days. New
The mainland market share of "Love Letter" will arrive about half a year after it is released, and Fang Yi Studio can get slightly more than 100 million. Foreign markets are more troublesome, sometimes taking two or three years, and the differences in the film markets of various countries must be taken into consideration.
Tax rates and release dates will vary.
For example, it is rumored that Thailand will implement tax reduction or even tax exemption policies in 2014 for films that are filmed in Thailand, have Thai capital, or have a certain number of Thai stars.
Therefore, the release date of "Twelve Zodiac Signs" in Thailand will be postponed to 2014 alone, and some local Thai stars will be added at that time - their scenes will not appear in any market outside Thailand, and their only function is
Tax cuts.
Specially made in Thailand, this is the only one.
The DJ Laboratory version of the four-axis drone was suspended in the room, its propellers making a slight sound of wind. Below it, Fang Yi was lost in thought about the picture design of the movie.
Facts aside for now... cast aside, "17 Again" is expected to have two gimmicks that will make money.
The first one is the appearance of middle-aged Fang Yi. According to Base, this is the first time in China that a large amount of CG has been used to create a middle-aged image of the same actor. It is difficult for ordinary movies to spend hundreds or tens of millions for this matter.
But Fang Yi was willing to give it up, he was already rich now.
The second is several shocking scenes. The biggest and most troublesome one is that Fang Yi wanted to make an exact replica of the Nasdaq’s bell-ringing hall, and then use more than ten tons of water to wash the hall to pieces.
China Film Huairou Base has a very large studio, the largest in the world, with an area of 5,000 square meters. Can it be used there?
no.
The place is upstairs. At the beginning of the design, the problem of bearing more than ten tons of water in a small area was not considered, and the ground was not waterproofed.
Director Nolan of "Inception" arranged a scene in the opening scene where sea water breaks through the dreamland. Many people think that this scene was made by CG, but it was actually shot in real scene.
This technique inspired Fang Yi.
He can find a large enough container, then build a replica hall inside the container, and then pour more than ten tons of water into it. From the lens with a limited viewing angle, the audience cannot know that the protagonist is inside the container, only that in the movie
The world was completely washed away by the flood.
This is called plan a.
Plan B is another way of thinking to deal with this shot: construct a one-hundred-to-one one-way transparent miniature hall, and then wash it down with tap water - this seemingly childish thing is to simulate real physical reactions and save a lot of calculations
.
Then, at the base, the whole "child's play" becomes real through computer special effects.
Thinking of this, Fang Yi grabbed the drone in his hand, and its rotors slowly stopped, and Fang Yi imagined that he was holding the helicopter with one hand - if there are superhero movies in the future, the special effects technology at that time
It's more advanced, so they probably shoot like this.
Plan A or B depends on which one works better.
He couldn't be sure yet.
Now, in order to facilitate understanding, we must talk about the plot of the movie "17 Again" without spoiling it.
A man who was once a man of great influence, but now has no success in his career and has fallen into a mid-life crisis. Under the arrangement of the screenwriter, he returned to his seventeen-year-old body. He has a wife whose love for him has gradually faded away.
An obedient, bad daughter, and a son who is always bullied.
This film talks about how he got his daughter back on track, how he made his son confident and brave, and how he made his wife fall in love with him again. In the process, this man who finally returned to his best state,
He realized that it was all his fault. He didn't care about his children and didn't love his wife. He turned back as a prodigal son. Under the arrangement of the screenwriter, he would rather return to his pot-bellied self just to reunite with his wife...?
A typical Hollywood prodigal son story.
Fang Yi has already used it in his last movie "Love Letter", will he do the same in this movie?
of course not.
What are you going back for? Why are you going back?
