Chapter 396 Millions of troops cross the Yangtze River month
"Fake 3D is rampant, just to make money!" Xinlang News!
"Shocked! 3D conversion is actually a scam. You can do it at home on a computer!" n News.
"The 3D converter owes the audience an apology!" Sohu News.
"Real 3D? Fake 3D? Dialysis and transformation of the true face of 3D!" Time Network.
"Exclusively revealing the difference between 3D conversion and 3D movies!" Zhihu.
In early April, on the desolate Yangtze River.
There were only a few big scenes left on the beach battlefield. While the crew was preparing, Tang An read some news.
Basically, websites with traffic and the media are talking about the two recent 3D movies, and they are all criticizing them.
Whether it's the media or the audience, few have anything good to say.
Even cents, who have always believed that the moon in foreign countries is rounder, rarely comes out to clean up the situation. This also shows that the conversion to 3D has reached the point where everyone is shouting for help.
After following it for several days, this group of trolls found that except for the negative marketing of those two movies, the promotion of several other domestic movies continued as usual, with no changes.
Even if it’s targeting competitors, it’s not appropriate to only target imported movies. What’s more, my own reputation is so bad that I don’t have the energy and money to do any public relations for myself.
Tang An basically guessed that someone was trying to mess with him, and it must be Hua Yi.
Attacking Tang An will give "If You Are the One 2" a greater guarantee of winning the Lunar New Year season, and it will also allow Wang Zhongjun to save face. After all, Tang An poached three senior executives and one A-list star from him.
For large companies, especially listed companies, sometimes face is much more important than a mere RMB 20 to 30 million.
As long as "If You Are the One 2" kills Tang An, Chen Kaige and Jiang Wen, Huayi's brand will be greatly improved.
Not only is the value of the stock, but also the movie town plan that Wang Zhongjun is promoting, he is more certain to persuade large real estate groups such as Hengda and Biguiyuan to cooperate, which is a large project worth more than one billion yuan.
If you want to do negative marketing based on the weaknesses of the 3D conversion of "Edge of Tomorrow", you have to label the 3D conversion as pseudo-3D.
Tang An had already thought of a countermeasure before deciding to switch to 3D, so naturally he would not let him succeed.
Movie quality is king!
If the quality is sufficient, unless Tang An's publicity resources are far inferior to Huayi's, it is impossible to lose.
Tang An is so confident, but the rest of the crew, including the actors, are very nervous.
"Director Tang, do you think it would be effective if we converted our movie into 3D?"
"What, are you worried?" Tang An closed his laptop and said with a smile.
Deng Chao rubbed the back of his head and said with some worry, "I took the time to go to the cinema a few nights ago and watched the 3D versions of these two movies. Basically there was no 3D effect, especially "Clash of the Gods". After ten
You have to take off your glasses after a few minutes, otherwise you won’t be able to bear it. The guy next to me is myopic and wears glasses, which makes me feel uncomfortable just looking at him.”
Others nodded.
"Yeah, "Alice in Wonderland" is better, but "Clash of the Titans" is completely unwatchable."
"I watched it for half an hour and stopped watching it. I went to buy a 2D version. It was much better than the 3D version."
"I was a little tired that night, but I became even more dizzy."
Tang An stopped their discussion and said with a smile, "These two movies were made at short notice, so naturally they have no effect. "Alice in Wonderland" is better. It is an animated movie, and most of the shots were originally made."
They were all made with CG, and "Clash of the Gods" basically just cut out all those scenes, made some depth, and did some random things, but of course it was uncomfortable to watch."
"This is called the replacement method, which is equivalent to copying it once and acting as the lens for the left eye and the right eye respectively."
"There is also a projection method that virtually projects the converted image, similar to the effect of scene restoration, to form a virtual three-dimensional scene. This can be used to view the formed three-dimensional effect and perform relief effect processing to achieve patchwork, clear levels, primary and secondary
Obviously better stereoscopic visual effects.
Even under ideal circumstances, it can exceed the three-dimensional effect of real shots and further enhance the three-dimensional effect of the picture."
"Actually, a considerable part of the shots in "Avatar" were shot in 2D and then converted into 3D. Let me watch it again. Can you tell which ones were converted into 3D and which ones were real shots?"
Theoretically, the effect of converting to 3D can exceed the effect of real shooting, but it is just a theory, and it is very time-consuming and labor-intensive.
The scene is also scored. Some scenes are shot in 3D but the conversion effect is not good, and some scenes are not as good as the real shot. Even in those 3D blockbusters that are shot in real life, some scenes are shot in 2D and then converted in 3D.
Tang An was here explaining to them the conversion to 3D and 3D. Not long after, deputy director Zhang Yiping came to inform them that it was ready and they could start shooting.
Tang An clapped his hands and stood up from the chair, smiled at everyone, "Let's go, I will show you an epic battle."
This scene is the scene where the army crosses the river. The setting of the script is that the south of the Yangtze River has been occupied. The Chinese military has developed a new generation of exoskeleton mechas and has repeatedly achieved success in the northern grasslands, the western border, and the eastern coast.
Victory, and are preparing to launch a general attack on the aliens.
The battle formation in the original film was still a bit small. It didn't look like a total battle. It was just a local battle at most.
As the first science fiction blockbuster in which China saves the world, its significance is undoubtedly huge.
Moreover, according to Han Sanping's report, American Hollywood giants intend to purchase global rights so that audiences around the world can see the film on the big screen.
This not only shows the strength of our country to the people and gives them a sense of security, but also allows people all over the world to feel the military strength of China.
Optoelectronics submitted the report to the Propaganda Department, then to the Ministry of National Defense, and then the Military Commission approved it.
The Nanjing Air Force Military District dispatched half an air division, 50 combat aircraft of various types, and dozens of auxiliary aircraft.
The East China Sea Fleet, one of my country's three major fleets based in Ningbo, dispatched two destroyer brigades and a total of 8 other transport ships transporting armored vehicles and tanks.
Aircraft carriers are impossible. Big things like battleships have long been eliminated, and there is no such thing.
However, the military promised to provide some videos of aircraft carriers, which can be added later.
Later, the aircraft carrier that appeared in "Wolf Warrior 2" was cut out from other video materials and added to it.
The number of warships and fighter jets is still not large enough, so they can only be modeled and produced later. The military can also provide part of the appearance data, which saves most of the calculation time.
There are also coastal defense forces on the shore, equipped with shore-to-ship missiles.
All troops are ready, and 6 helicopters for aerial photography take off.
In addition to aerial photography, 8 photographers were used to take close-ups of various places.
After confirming all the details, the demolition team coordinated the time with the military commanders, and half an hour later, the shooting started.
Thousands of group performers and hundreds of officers and soldiers are ready, and the decks of various transport ships are already filled with soldiers wearing exoskeleton mechas, lined up neatly.
These exoskeletons that do not require close-ups are simpler than those used in filming, and they look the same from a distance.
As a director, Tang An couldn't go to heaven to see this grand occasion, so he sat in front of the monitor on the shore and shouted loudly, "Start!"
Mighty and high-spirited, a million troops crossed the Yangtze River!
Twenty or thirty warships of various types set sail and blew their whistles, loaded with soldiers and armored vehicles, tanks, and the missiles on the warships were also ready to go.
Large transport planes in the sky transported groups of mecha soldiers to the other side, and more than 50 fighter jets roared past in battle order.
The coastal defense forces and warships fired missiles at the opposite side.
The cruise missiles and cannons carried by the bombers also plowed the ground.
Originally, Tang An wanted the military to use live ammunition, but since there was no one on the other side, they would wait until they had landed before planting explosives.
But he was ruthlessly rejected.
The first scene was shot in more than an hour. For the army, it was a simple exercise without any difficulty.
Then the landing scene was filmed for two full days, and this location was finally completed.
ps: My eyes have been very uncomfortable these past two days. I basically couldn’t help but close my eyes after staring at the screen for five or six seconds. I felt sore and swollen, and my head felt dizzy. I hope you can understand.
