Hollywood legendary director

More than 20 minutes later, when the "Avatar" in the title of "Avatar" appeared on the screen for the first time, a low-pitched riot broke out in the theater again-this big blue-skinned guy looked so real , Smart, no sense of emptiness like "Final Fantasy" at all, and I don't even want to think it is a CG product deep in my heart.

Because it looks like a living creature different from a human race, and it seems that Pandora originally lived with such aliens.

"God. Cameron did it, he really did it. This grumpy bastard is really at the forefront of the times again..." Nereo said to himself absentmindedly for the second time.

If the previous visual effects technology was shocking enough, then the moment when Avatar appeared, it was overwhelming.

"How did this happen?"

When Jack enters the avatar with will, is familiar with the body that can run and jump, and interacts with his surrounding companions, there is almost no rigidity in fusion with the environment, which makes people feel incredible.

Movies such as "Harry Potter" and "The Lord of the Rings" that also create a world system have a lot of special effects shots, and the visual effects are also very subversive, but they still need artificial scenery, and "Avatar" is in After entering Pandora Star, people even wonder if there is any special effect in all this?

Those flowers, trees, those luminous plants, those ecological environments that are obviously different from the earth-if there is such a place in the world for the crew to film, then Nereo is sure that he is willing to spend money to see it, because it is too much It's incredible, not only visually enjoy, but also some refreshing feeling in my heart.It is very open, as if seeing the sea for the first time.

Even in the next scene, Jack went on a mission for the first time, sitting on a helicopter and flying down the waterfall, even if he knew that he was watching a movie, but because it was an experience of substituting perspective, it was a magical journey of exploring another world.

It’s just that the purpose of the journey of discovery is not so positive and pure. In the base where Jack went, the development of Pandora Star was divided into two factions. It is precisely that he was invited by the hardliners to sneak into the Namis and be a spy. In other words, the protagonist seems to be standing in the camp of the villain-this is a position that is easy to guess, Cameron does not conceal his plot direction at all.

Of course, it is precisely because the plot is simple that the audience can devote their energy to appreciate the wonders of Pandora. Otherwise, if the story is too obscure, the viewing process will not be so refreshing and clear. It takes more time to move your eyes than your brain.

From the beginning to the present, "Avatar" is attracting everyone to watch with new and unconventional visual effects.

To be honest, just shaping the ecological environment of Pandora Star has already made people feel that it is worth the price. Some people even hope that the progress of the plot will be slower and more scenic descriptions.

However, the following twists and turns of the panic chase scene still made people feel a little unnatural in CG, for example, those beasts did not seem to have the agility of Avatar...The energy of modeling is obviously not in this regard.

"It's already pretty good." Nereo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.

Because for CG shots, especially the sense of picture presented by a more realistic style of film, the audience's acuity is very high, such as the scene where Legolas kills the giant elephant in "The Lord of the Rings". The performance of the colossus is also very stiff, but as long as the stiffness does not appear too frequently, the audience will generally skip it. From this perspective, the technical application of "Avatar" still has its limits, and it has not reached the inner limit. Ao fully understands the degree of incompetence.

And watching Jack flee in the process of being chased, the audience did not feel too much tension, because watching Cameron’s movies everyone knows that the protagonist will not die, unlike a certain studio that always likes dead men. Mainly to increase the atmosphere of the drama.

Sure enough, this big escape, when Jack jumped off the cliff and fell into the waterfall, he avoided the beast crisis. Although he lost his way in the primitive jungle and stayed alone for the night, these old-fashioned designs are in the beautiful scenery of Pandora. The embellishment also makes the audience not bored at all.

Afterwards, Jack became silly, and the fire that was ignited on his own initiative attracted a new group of beasts. When it was in danger, it was also the best time to introduce a new role. Walking out of the darkness was also accompanied by the exclamation of the audience.

Yes, the film was screened for more than forty minutes before the heroine played by Eva made her debut.

In the eyes of film critics like Nereo, he also quickly understood that Eva did not appear to have a "face" shot, because her performance was not an earth person who entered Pandora's star as an incarnation, but a real one. Native population.

Almost an instant, this kind of analytical thoughts flowed through Nereo's mind, but for some ordinary audiences, the reason they exclaimed was simply because Eva's Nydiri had inexplicable exotic beauty.

Even Lyman can see the preference of Director Cameron-although Jack’s companion incarnation of the female Nami has already appeared (on the basketball court), the modeling of Naidli is completely recognizable by the naked eye. meticulous--

Eva's facial features can be found from it.

Even if the Nami tribe has a pair of cat-eye-like yellow pupils in the setting, it can be well highlighted from the shape of the cheeks, some tough facial features, and its own stubborn and enchanting temperament.

In a word, this modelling took a lot of effort and burned money, because the more detailed and personified, the more CG cost.

In terms of visual feedback, it is not like an insignificant character, but an alien beauty in the true sense.

And her appearance also sets off how unfair the other supporting actors are. When Nydiri snatches the torch and throws it into the water to extinguish, the wildness and coldness can be reconciled through the eyes. The tilt of her nose conveyed her vigilance very well.

After all, no matter how you explain this shock, the use of CG technology burns money every frame. The more expressions, the smarter, and the harder the burn. The cruel fact is that many supporting actors are not smart enough, just because The crew didn't spend money on them, or it was not them that stood out.

This is indeed the case. After Eva sitting next to Lyman went home, she said that her motion capture simulation scene was several times higher than that of other characters, and even more than the protagonist. This is actually Cameron. Release the close one——

It's not that he doesn't understand the world. When Lehman recommended Eva, the first-line actress, to act as Nydiri without showing her face, and generous support in the budget, he naturally focused on it.

To put it another way, the filming became stiff and Cameron couldn’t make it by himself. When he was embarrassed, Lyman sent a large sum of money and sufficient trust. Although he did not say anything, he was still very touched...
