When the little rabbit rode the train into the animal city, and Feifei Chen's song "Try Everything" played off-screen, Xia Qingqing and Chen Muchen's faces darkened at the same time - whether it was from the wilderness to the city, or from the ice and snow world.
to the tropical rainforest, and then to
The bustling city; the surprising movements and expressions of the little rabbit, or the different treatment of the giraffe, hippo and hamster at the train station; as well as the connection and transition between the various shots, and even the changes in color and light, are all clear
It really shows them the gap between the two sides!
At this moment, Xia Qingqing's mouth and tongue felt dry.
"actually……"
After swallowing hard, Chen Muchen whispered: "Kaboka just made the pictures more gorgeous. If we really talk about the flexibility of these characters, there are..."
"Okay, senior brother!"
Before Chen Muchen could finish speaking, Xia Qingqing bit her lip and said, "I understand what you mean! However, as an animation director, I am also very aware of the gap between the two animations! In terms of production level,
We can't even compare to "Frozen" a few years ago, let alone this year's "Zootopia"...it's too far behind!"
After saying these words, Xia Qingqing felt really uncomfortable!
As the animation production director of DreamWorks, and also the leader of the Chinese team involved in the production of animated films such as "Frozen" and "The Lion King", Xia Qingqing naturally has great ambitions. And this time the company invested in "Mulan"
After spending so much money and integrating several major domestic animation giants to work together, who wouldn’t want to make a Chinese animation milestone?
And Xia Qingqing's goal was "Frozen" a few years ago!
The classic work of Kaboka Company a few years ago, which even the later "The Lion King" could not surpass, is the goal that Xia Qingqing and all their production staff are chasing!
And when they finished, everyone had full confidence!
Even if they can't catch up with "Frozen", Xia Qingqing and the others believe that at least they are not far away from that animation! Regardless of the lens production, character design, and the advancement of animation technology, Xia Qingqing feels that the gap between "Frozen" and "Frozen" is huge.
It’s not that big, at least if DreamWorks works harder, the next “Kung Fu Panda” should be able to catch up!
However……
When I saw this "Zootopia" today, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart!
When you are making progress, others never stop moving forward! "Mulan" is catching up with "Frozen", but "Zootopia" has left "Frozen" far behind
In the back!
Suddenly, Xia Qingqing seemed to understand Sun Peng's meaningful words that day.
"In comparison, Mulan is simpler, but simple animation can reflect the progress of DreamWorks and better demonstrate your potential..."
"Haha, is that so?"
After watching "Zootopia" at this time, and recalling Sun Peng's words, Xia Qingqing seemed to finally understand something - if they were allowed to directly make "Zootopia", Xia Qingqing could be sure,
Not to mention this year's summer vacation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see this animated movie on the big screen next year... no, the summer vacation the year after next!
With a wry smile, Xia Qingqing exhaled heavily!
Because at this moment, Chen Muchen patted her shoulder, came over and whispered: "Qingqing, don't get into trouble, don't always think about competing with the best companies in the world!! This is our dream factory
The first animated blockbuster to play a leading role, what you want now is the second "Kung Fu Panda" to catch up with them..."
…
"Teacher Lao Bai's scripts never disappoint!"
At the end of the movie shown at the premiere, when the famous Zootopia singer Feifei Yang sang "Try Everything" again on the stage, Gong Xiaomeng praised it with a face filled with wonder.
As one of today's heroines, Gong Xiaomeng is the voice actor of Little Rabbit Police Officer Judy.
Even though she had already watched the entire movie while dubbing, when Gong Xiaomeng watched it on the big screen again, she still couldn't help but admire it - no matter the story of the entire animation, or the story of Officer Leopard, the tree.
Lazy and other contrasting cute settings make people marvel at Lao Bai’s imagination!
"Haha, that seems to be the case."
As the biggest star today, Hu Tian shrugged and said with a smile: "And I can almost say with certainty that "Zootopia" should have been booked for this year's Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film... Tsk tsk, I just don't know if Chen
Can the diva’s song “Try Everything” win the best song?”
"There is no doubt that there is great hope!"
Licking her bright red lips, Gong Xiaomeng said firmly.
Oscar!
Not to mention Gong Xiaomeng, who is still being scolded for her poor acting skills. Hu Tian, who has been in the film industry for more than ten years and is now a first-line superstar, is not interested in the highest award in the world's film industry.
They can only look up to them, and it is even harder to walk on the red carpet. But for me, nominating a name every year is simply a routine matter, and as long as a new animation is released, it will win the best animated feature.
The film is a sure thing!
It’s really worth comparing people to others, but throwing away goods when comparing goods!
The more she thought about it, the more upset she became. Gong Xiaomeng simply stopped talking about this topic and asked instead, "Brother Tian, how much do you think this "Zootopia" can win at the box office? Can it win the Christmas box office?
Champion?"
As soon as he heard Gong Xiaomeng's words, Hu Tian understood what she meant.
If there is only one movie by Lao Bai this Christmas, Hu Tian will support "Zootopia" without hesitation, even if there are strong competitors. Even if there is no cooperation in "Tomb Raider", he will support Lao Bai
The confidence in his script is definitely much greater than that of Gong Xiaomeng - after all, he is a first-line movie star, and he understands Lao Bai's appeal all too well.
But don’t forget, there is also a “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” in this year’s Christmas film!
After hesitating for a while, Hu Tian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's hard to say, after all, they are both family-friendly movies. It's hard to say who will be more popular, "Zootopia" or "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone"... And
Their target audiences also have quite a bit of overlap, so it’s very difficult!”
"Hmm...why don't they split the schedule?"
After hearing what Hu Tian said, Gong Xiaomeng became a little curious.
They are all scripts by Lao Bai, and one is a masterpiece of the Sunflower Story Collection, which has sold tens of millions of copies worldwide. The other one has also caused widespread discussion around the world in the past two years, and even won the sales championship in Europe and the United States.
Little Magician series, Gong Xiaomeng has never figured out why they were released in the same schedule!
In this case, don't you have to beat yourself up?
"It's simple, because they don't have a schedule to go!"
Shrugging his shoulders, Hu Tian chuckled and said: "The Lunar New Year is our Chinese schedule. There is a more suitable theme of "Han Bo and the Spiritual Stone". Next year's summer vacation will also have "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe", and even
And Lao Bai's own "Hero"... This is just his own movie! When can they be released?"
"this……"
The corners of her mouth twitched, and Gong Xiaomeng sighed: "Okay, now that you say it, I feel more and more that Lao Bai is awesome! Just looking at this list of movie titles, I feel that Lao Bai is simply going to dominate.
This year’s movie box office list..." (To be continued)
