Game Entertainment Empire

Chapter 299 Seems to have reached the pinnacle of life

Early game production, including CG animation and motion capture, basically only hired actors with special motion capture technology, but later with the development of technology, even the facial expressions of actors can be clearly captured.

This has also led to the importance of acting skills for motion capture. Of course, it is very different from movies and TV dramas, which have very strict requirements for actors' acting skills. Games motion capture technologies do not have such high requirements in this regard, because there is a later stage. Through technical adjustments and corrections, it is like a filter beauty camera on a live broadcast platform. As long as you are not ugly and ugly, it can make you look like a fairy.

Although the cost of these post-productions is not small, it is obviously lower than hiring an actor whose appearance fee can cost millions.

And if a game says that the participating missions are all actors and actresses, there are basically only three ways to explain it.

The first one is that the developers and producers strive for excellence, and hope to be the best everywhere. After all, the later corrections are directly captured with the expressions of real people. It is easy to see the difference when comparing the two. Of course, this kind of The difference is still difficult to distinguish for most non-professional players, and whether players can find it depends on the camera of the game.

If there are frequent close-ups of the faces of the main characters in a game, then don’t doubt that the production team must be very confident in shaping the expressions of the game characters, and this category often appears in interactive movie games.

The second is that game manufacturers need the traffic of these big-name actors to promote the popularity of the game, which is almost similar to that of spokespersons.

As for the third, there is no explanation, it is purely the producer's personal wish, liking a certain actor, liking a certain actor's role, to put it more clearly, it is to chase stars with public funds.

The motion capture of the game requires actors, and finally caught up with the play to catch up with the main characters in the game.

The main core characters Alsace, Jaina, and Illidan were specially selected by Yang Chen. In the end, one student got the role of Alsace, and the other two were given by the other two special actors. took it down.

There are not too many remaining subdivisions, or the important characters whose plots are not very brilliant, such as Kane Bloodhoof, Daelin Proudmoore, etc., are assigned to them.

Well, in addition to these characters, it also includes human soldiers, knights, orc infantry, etc., and of course some of them are cameos.

And the names of these actors will eventually appear in the list of the production team.

It can be said that Nebula Game's final list of producers after the game is over can be regarded as one of the longest in the industry.

Many players even said on the official website that this is too long, maybe Nebula Games has included all the cleaning aunts in the company.

Of course, this is not the case, but as long as the employees who have participated in the game production, even if they only work for one week, leave because of other things in the second week, Nebula Games will enter their roster into the final team roster of the game.

Because Yang Chen understands what a big expectation this is for the game makers; he also understands how important this is for the game makers.

……………

Inside the motion capture studio established by Jiang Xingyun Games.

"Director Zhang, is there any mystery behind this shot?" Looking at the shot just taken, Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang sat next to each other and said to a bald director in his fifties wearing a baseball cap.

Zhang Hankun is a literary film director in the industry. He is very good at using colors in the shots, and has won many domestic awards.

He didn't play in person like the previous "Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain", because there was a dream memory comparison before. Yang Chen was able to compare the shots in the dream memory while shooting by himself to distinguish good from bad, while Wang Yaliang himself was in "Snake Eater" Although a lot of changes have been made in the shooting of the camera, it still refers to "Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain".

And "Warcraft" is in the memory of dreams. I have to say that although this game is classic and great enough, it is behind the times.

Learn from each other's strengths and make up for your weaknesses. This is what you must do if you want to be successful.

Listening to Yang Chen's words, Zhang Hankun explained.

After the explanation, the crew entered the break time. Zhang Hankun took the lunch box handed over by the staff, looked at the scene just shot, and asked Yang Chen curiously: "Mr. Yang, is this you shot to be played in the game?"

He is really a little confused about this, he has made many years of literary and artistic films, and won many awards, but that kind of top awards, he understands that there is probably no hope in this life, and literary and artistic films have not earned much money, In recent years, he has also thought about retirement in the future.

After inquiring about the recruitment of a director for Xingyun Games, and seeing the 2 million salary, he searched the Internet and saw that the company was awesome, so he recommended himself without saying a word, but he really doesn't know much about games. many.

"Well, it's played segmented in the game. It can be understood as a TV series. Director Zhang also worked hard for you in the post-production." Yang Chen nodded and smiled.

"Do you work with money? It's hard work." Zhang Hankun said with a smile, and then he was a little curious: "It's hard to say, although none of our actors are famous, but the follow-up special effects and CG are not expensive. Less money?"

After all, it’s not a formal production team. In fact, as the director, he doesn’t even know how much their team spends. The only thing he knows is that these two young big bosses are very generous, and the money and everything are directly given to them, even the boxed meals. They are all one-to-one, and the other party didn't say anything about his salary, and directly paid half of the salary to his account after signing the contract.

The only thing that puzzled him was that the lighting and costumes included in the equipment were not top-notch, but they were definitely above average, and the actors were not well-known actors.

To put it bluntly, isn't this a cannon hitting mosquitoes?

"It's the top one in China, right? The total cost should be around 40 million dollars." Yang Chen took a mouthful of rice, then put the duck legs in the box into Wang Yaliang's bowl next to him, and said not very concerned.

Here Yang Chen is talking about the cost of the entire game project, but obviously Zhang Hankun doesn't understand it that way.

pat...

The duck leg held by the chopsticks fell to the ground.

40 million? ? Still dollars! ?

Zhang Hankun's eyes widened, and then he turned his head to look at the brand-new machinery and equipment next to him, as well as the actors with motion-capture infrared equipment on their bodies in the distance.

It feels a little weird.

As for fake?

If he hadn't learned about Xingyun Games before, he would have thought it was bragging.

But when he was searching Nebula Games before, he clearly remembered a piece of news that the boss of Nebula Games spent a lot of money to buy a building as a dormitory for the company's employees.

There is also a series of news about how rich Xingyun Games is. In addition, he also asked some of his friends to confirm that this is a pretty awesome company before he decided to apply.

Then Zhang Hankun suddenly remembered that at the previous reception, an insider who was quite difficult to deal with, after drinking too much, he boasted to himself proudly, saying that he had cheated a few investors and made a movie with a cost of about 20 million RMB. , coming soon.

He still hasn't forgotten that pride.

But now his crew, which looks like a rich second generation come out to play, is actually a project team with a cost of up to 40 million? And it's still dollars?

And he himself is a director who made $40 million?

For a moment, Zhang Hankun felt as if he had reached the pinnacle of his life.
