Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

The investment of the animation studio is temporarily unable to see the effect and return. If you want to have a return, you must wait for the accumulation of technology to a certain level.

However, Qiao Feng's investment in special effects saw a return. In November, the human spirit was not finished, and then it was post-production. He paid a large price to Industrial Light and Magic to let them do special effects. When it was finished, some of the shots that needed special effects were already finished.

I have to say that Industrial Light and Magic is indeed the boss and leader in special effects, special effects technology is the best, and what it does is good.

This is only 1986, but at this time some of the special effects they have made are used to watching top special effects blockbusters, and Qiao Feng, who has also seen 50 mao special effects, seems not bad at all.

With a time gap of thirty years, as a result, the special effects made by others at this time are much better and more exquisite than the 50 mao special effects of later generations.

It can be seen how bad the 50-mao special effects are and how rubbish.

Of course, the return of special effects investment is not only for Industrial Light and Magic. After all, the people here are the bosses themselves, and they paid them. This is an equivalent exchange.

The real investment in special effects paid off is Qiao Feng's own special effects company. Longteng special effects company was established by Chen Jiashang and his special effects lighting team from Shaw Brothers. In the beginning, Chen Jiashang was a special effects company The person in charge of Chen Jiashang, however, was sometimes too busy to take care of it when filming a film. In addition, many professionals in professional fields were recruited into the company. When there were too many people, it was complicated. Chen Jiashang was away from the company for a long time. The person in charge who could not be responsible was also a bit misleading. Later, he was simply promoted from the team to assist him. Later, the assisting person basically became the official person in charge.

Under the leadership of the new person in charge, the company's research on special effects has made considerable progress. Qiao Feng's large amount of capital investment is finally not in vain, plus as long as Qiao Feng uses Industrial Light and Magic to do special effects , It’s really a steal to get some of the employees of their own special effects company to help them. These people have also learned a lot from the special effects artists of Industrial Light and Magic.

Then all kinds of research, stealing, development, and finally came in handy this year. First, the special effects of Happy Ghost Clashing Happy Ghost were produced by Longteng Special Effects. In Qiao Feng’s opinion, the effect is considerably better than that of Original Time and Space. Directed by Cheng Xiaodong, produced by Xu Ke, Wang Cuxian, and Zhang Guorong starring in The Ghost Story, the special effects of this ghost movie are also in charge of the special effects of Longteng.

Although they are mainly based on model special effects, after stealing the master in the industrial light and magic, and Qiao Feng has invested a large amount of money to let the special effects personnel practice and research, the level of the special effects artist of Longteng special effects is not the original time and space. Those who do special effects in A Chinese Ghost Story are comparable.

In other words, there is no professional special effects company in the original space-time Hong Kong. The so-called special effects are all made by the artists and lighting of the crew, just like Chen Jiashang did special effects for the interstellar blunt tires. In the beginning, he was out of interest. Coupled with the director's recommendation, all the people he brought afterwards were also found in Shaw, and there was no systematic study or research development at all.

When the filming was finished, the post-production of A Chinese Ghost Story was finished. It happened that Xu Ke had time to fly to the United States to see his wife Shi Nansheng. By the way, he also copied a copy of the post-production Ghost Story. The United States came to give Qiao Feng a personal look.

When I looked at the front, I didn’t feel anything. At most, the scene selection was a bit different. But when I saw the scene of my grandmother, Qiao Feng discovered the difference from the original Chinese Ghost Story. First of all, Yan Chixia’s spells and light effects are better than The original version is much better, and the other one is grandma’s tongue.

In the original version, the dryad grandmother’s tongue is actually a long strip of sponge dyed and pulled away by hand, and this sponge tongue is handmade by Cheng Xiaodong. But now the tongue material in this version of A Chinese Ghost Story is divided into two One is dynamic, it is still sponge dyeing, but the detail close-up shot is a tongue model made of silicone, which is more textured and realistic than sponge.

Regardless of whether the tongue is made of sponge or silicone, special effects are processed with computer software in the later stage.

In Qiao Feng's view, the special effects of this version should be two or three times better than the original version. Although it does not reach the level of special effects made by Industrial Light & Magic, it is not so bad.

Moreover, Qiao Feng felt that the current special effect should be considered just right.

Because the movie Ghost Story is based on the story, if the special effects are done well, it will feel a bit overwhelming.

Like later, technically it is indeed possible to make more magnificent, which can satisfy the director and the audience’s imagination of a more magnificent picture, but the magnificent picture makes it easy to play, and the focus is not on the story.

Although the current special effects are much worse than that of later generations, such special effects technology can perfectly serve as a narrative aid, thereby achieving classics.

"Yes, yes, better than I thought, the special effects are like this, and the story is like this." After watching the whole movie, Qiao Feng gave Xu Ke a good compliment.

Xu Ke was also very satisfied, smiling with regret and said: "If there were such special effects technology, I would definitely be able to shoot the new Shushan swordsman better."

"I see, the current special effects are not good enough. After another twenty years, the special effects will almost meet the needs of making fairy movies. If you want to shoot the story of Shushan by then, I will invest for you Of course, your story will be smooth by then, and you can’t ignore the smooth story for the sake of special effects.” Qiao Feng smiled and drew a pie for Xu Ke.

Xu Ke has always been concerned about the failure of the New Shu Mountain Swordsman, but Qiao Feng did not expect Xu Ke to feel that the special effects at this time can satisfy the shooting of the New Shu Mountain Swordsman.

This is a bit taken for granted, just kidding.

At that time, when the new Shushan Swordsman was filming, the Industrial Light and Magic invited the special effects staff of Star Wars to do special effects. It took more than 20 million lights to do special effects.

At that time, Industrial Light and Magic could not match the special effects level of Qiao Feng's Longteng Special Effects Company at that time, but the gap was not very big.

The special effects at that time didn't work, and the special effects at this time didn't work either.

Moreover, the failure of the new Shushan swordsman was not a failure of special effects. At that time, such special effects were absolutely stunning in the eyes of Hong Kong audiences. However, the stunning special effects cannot conceal the mediocrity of the story. Even mediocrity is not even considered mediocrity. Feng thinks that the story is actually a bit inexplicable, and it is also very jumping.

Therefore, the failure of the new Shushan swordsman is definitely not a problem of special effects.
