After a brief exchange of greetings, Bi Fang asked: "Are you going out now?"
Brand nodded: "Yes, Morgan will receive you, and I am going to receive Etienne."
"Etienne? He's coming too?"
"We also sent an invitation to him. After all, this is a movie with two male protagonists. They will get off the plane soon. If you don't mind, you can ask Morgan to take you to visit our studio first, and wait until everyone is here.
Look at the samples.”
"Are the samples ready?" Bi Fang was surprised. Originally, he thought he was just here to take a look at the image design and plot, but he never expected that Disney would be so fast?
"Of course, we are professional in animated films."
Knowing that an acquaintance was coming, the journey seemed more relaxed.
Morgan also introduced most of the studio's situation, which opened the eyes of Bi Fang and Yao Jun and gave them a deep understanding of the internal situation of the world's number one animation production company.
There are about five stages in the production of animated films. The first stage is project establishment.
From deciding on the script, attracting investment, selecting a team, to obtaining the license, these are all the contents of the first stage.
And since it is adapted from a real case and is highly adaptable, it only needs to make some changes to the background and characters, so it is not difficult to finalize the script.
As for the investment and team issues, there is no need to worry. As the world's number one level, some people are willing to spend money, but those who pay have to see if they are qualified, so progress is rapid.
The second stage is the pre-creation stage, which is mainly divided into four parts: main creative decision-making, art design, recording, and storyboard production. It roughly involves drawing what each person looks like, and some fixed movements. This is
In the past period of time, Morgan and the others have been doing this.
After that comes the main body of film production, which is the third stage, making animation.
The fourth stage is color grading, subtitles, and dubbing, which only takes a month or two.
The fifth stage is obviously the final announcement.
"So our production process for this movie is very fast. We have already reached the late stage of the mid-term process. Most of the movie scenes have been presented, and there are even samples. Of course, we have to sign a confidentiality agreement before watching it."
4 Morgan submitted two contracts. There was only one contract, and the content was very simple. That is, after watching the film samples, the two of them could not engage in any form of spoilers, filming, etc.
In short, don't let others know the content.
This kind of confidentiality agreement can appear in many places. After signing it with ease, Morgan took the two of them into a small screening room. However, they did not start the screening, but waited together for Etienne's arrival.
After waiting for about another quarter of an hour, a familiar figure appeared in front of everyone. Behind Brand, it was Erwan and Etienne and his son!
"Professor Erwan, long time no see."
"Fang! Long time no see. I've seen the trip to the North Pole. It's really impressive about human beings' ability to survive. Where are you going to go next? I think there is no environment on earth that can stop you. Is it the Mariana Trench?"
"I haven't decided yet. One hundred days is too long. Now I want to rest for a while. Maybe it's really the Mariana Trench?"
Etienne hit Bifang on the shoulder: "Hey, there's me here! Fang! Are you pretending you didn't see me?"
Only then did Bifang turn his gaze, looked up and down, and raised his eyebrows: "Etienne, have you grown a little taller?"
At the beginning of the Yanniao journey, Etienne's height was about 1.7 meters, maybe less than a little, and he still looked a bit juvenile, but now he gives people a sense of déjà vu, and he is definitely over 1.75 meters tall.
, the sense of youth is also transforming towards the sense of youth.
It just looks a little thinner.
I saw some geese last year when I went to see them in the Arctic Circle, but the changes at that time were not too big and I didn't notice them. After half a year, the changes became obvious.
Etienne laughed, obviously very satisfied with his growth. He has also been working out recently. His goal is to build a body like Bifang, so that the girls in school will definitely scream.
"Now that everyone is here, let's get started!"
Seeing that the two parties were almost finished communicating, Morgan came to the screening room to perform operations.
Everyone was sitting in a small theater, and all the surrounding lights were turned off. Soon, the screen lit up, and the familiar logo lit up, attracting everyone's attention.
Since it is just a temporary sample, the whole movie is not complete, only 60 minutes, and there are no subtitles or dubbing. Not only is it a mime, but even the storyline is not clear, but many things can still be seen.
, such as changes in identity.
In order to become a complete story, it is obvious that the identities of both parties need to be changed.
The thoughts stopped and the movie picture finally appeared on the screen.
A tall bush of grass appeared on the screen, and the scene seemed to be still, but soon, a huge hoof fell down, leaving a deep pit in the ground.
The camera pulled up, and a huge antlered deer appeared in everyone's field of vision, and...the hunter behind the deer.
"Hey, it's Fang!"
Etienne lowered his voice, but because the movie had no sound and the entire small theater was very silent, everyone still heard it. Just from that image, everyone knew who the hunter was.
In addition to looking alike, the other party is also dressed like a field expert, wearing a camouflage adventure suit and thick dark green boots. The cuffs are rolled up, revealing half of his strong forearms, holding a pole in his hand.
Spear.
Everyone knows what's going to happen next.
This is a hunt.
Bi Fang feels that if it were a feature film, there would definitely be an exciting soundtrack here.
"Bi Fang" on the screen jumped up and rushed towards the big deer. After a fight, the big deer couldn't get up.
The camera runs very smoothly, and the whole hunt is obviously very tense and dangerous, but the person who makes the hunt appears to be very relaxed and at ease. It is obvious that he is extremely powerful and a skilled hunter.

Then the scene changed, it was Bifang carrying a big deer on his shoulders and selling it to the bar owner, and all the drinkers around him were amazed.
Obviously, Bifang in the movie is no longer an adventure-oriented anchor, but a hunter who makes a living by hunting.
These are two short plots. It can be seen that the middle is not coherent. There should be something missing.
After a brief black screen, a new character appeared. This was a middle-aged man wearing a little red hat and a torn rag. His face looked very big, and he looked slightly decadent but also revealed a sense of seriousness.
This time everyone laughed. Only Erwan's face dropped slightly, but he didn't pay too much attention to his rather funny image on the screen.
