look at that big guy

Chapter 45
The office area of ​​the Organizing Committee of the New Media Video Animation Competition is located in the cultural and creative industrial park provided by the Qingshan Municipal Government. The industrial park is mainly constructed of antique buildings, with an antique flavor, and there is no shortage of living water pavilions. There are blue flowers in the flowering season. Ying and cherry blossoms, so that this place is about to become an Internet celebrity spot.

The entire building A of the Cultural and Creative Park is used as the office space for this competition.

The judging meeting started on time at ten o'clock. At this time, a group of fifteen preliminary judges were already sitting at the ring table, waiting for the vacant boss in the most central position to arrive.

The judging meeting will be held every day, and the judges will submit some works they think are excellent, discuss at the judging meeting, and then determine the shortlisted places for the preliminary evaluation.

The judges present looked at the huge whiteboard behind the main seat. Many names of works have been marked with markers on it. Each circled name is a work that has been shortlisted for the preliminary evaluation.

Not long after, there was a signature sound of sluggish footsteps from the porch, and everyone straightened their spines involuntarily. Although the preliminary judges present were all elites selected by the three industry media, the one who is about to come in will be changed to normal, and the other party will look at themselves. At a glance, it may make them proud.

A chubby figure stepped on slippers and walked in, and under the curly hair was a face that looked down on Qiuyue Chunfeng's expression.

Seeing him, everyone couldn't help but feel involuntarily.

Liu Qirong.His native place is from Qingshan City, and his identity is an animation and film director. There are several masterpiece-level animation films that have won awards and soft hands, all of which are from him. In addition, his literary films are still among the top spots in China.

Last year, he also served as the general director of the Northland Animation Festival, which is one of the five largest animation festivals in the world, as well as the Annecy Animation Film Festival in France, the Ottawa Animation Festival in Canada, the Zagreb Animation Festival in Croatia, the East The island animation festival is equally famous.

Liu Qirong had previously designed an image project for Qingshan City, and also participated in the creation of the "God Painting" theme park in Qingshan City. Therefore, when the publicity department of Qingshan City Government was preparing for the Qingshan College Student Video Animation Competition, he was invited to be the final judge. member of the expert group.

To change the situation, Liu Qirong may not participate. No matter how big the stage is, he has refused even the New Year's Eve party and variety show of one of the best and second satellite TVs in China.

This time, he is also aiming at the title of Qingshan's College Student Animation Video Competition. He is willing to serve as the judge of the expert group and the general judge of the competition.It is also an aspect of the extensive publicity of this competition.

In other words, during the entire competition, his words are currently the imperial edict, and he is the only one who dares to walk around in slippers under such circumstances.

Liu Qirong, holding a tablet book, walked in front of the main seat. Facing everyone standing up to say hello, he nodded casually, waved his hand to let everyone sit down, then took out a marker, turned around and brushed it. Write a few words on the whiteboard.

"The Adventures of Chen Dachui".

Looking at the name, all the judges looked at each other and remembered.

When this animation was first passed by the judges, it was circulated by everyone. Many people laughed when they saw it, but some judges thought it was a spoof and did not conform to the spirit of the competition, so they put it in the disputed area. The final evaluation will be made by the expert review team, but so far, there is still no result for this work.

Today, Liu Qirong wrote this work on the whiteboard of the jury meeting. What happened?

"Today's review meeting, I will focus on this work." Liu Qirong said, "Have you seen it?"

The crowd nodded.

"Okay," Liu Qirong said, "I'll show you the tools my team usually uses to make movies."

Um, what's going on?The context didn't match, but everyone immediately became spirited. Liu Qirong is a first-class director in China, and the software tools used by his production team must be the best in the industry.

Sure enough, when Liu Qirong took out the tablet, started the cloud computer, and projected the software loading screen in the darkened room, everyone saw the big word "Maya" on it, and their breath was tight.

Maya Software is one of the top AI intelligent software in the film industry at present. It belongs to Maya Company, and its performance is very powerful. It is only a professional software provided for producers who have reached the top level.

Many people only hear the name but don’t know the name. After all, this kind of professional software is used by top producers, and the various internal parameters are confidential and cannot be seen by outsiders, and ordinary people can’t see this kind of software at all. interior view.

Although there are many senior judges present, it is probably the first time that they have seen the internal situation of this software.

Liu Qirong probably also guessed the mood of everyone at this time. He wrote a script at random, which was a script for a man and a woman to compete.The character model library instantly appeared on the screen. All kinds of characters are lifelike, and some of them are even authorized by live-action movie stars. Because Liu Qirong is one of the top directors in China, he also has the right to use the virtual identities of many stars, so he can watch it. Template to many stars.

Just looking at these, many people swallowed, it is a top model library.

Everyone watched Liu Qirong quickly operate parameters, character model, scene rendering, special effects, sound effects, camera matching, background subtraction, and then he clicked "Generate"!
Soon two famous male and female stars in China appeared in a bamboo forest. The two danced on the bamboo forest and fought with swords.

The beautiful scenes, lifelike details of characters, and the effects of smoke waves and water mist in the bamboo forest make people feel like they are in a fairyland.

Everyone was a little lost in the sight.

This is the top film tool, is this the handwriting of the top boss?

A casual paragraph, not just a blockbuster scene! ?

Liu Qirong adjusted the parameters again.The background was quickly replaced by the modern city, and the male and female protagonists changed into modern costumes and ran, chased, and fought in the urban forest.

Liu Qirong operated the software again, and the background became a space science fiction. The hero and heroine wore power suits and shuttled between buildings hundreds of meters high.

After a presentation, all the judges could not help but applaud.

"This is the Maya software that my team uses to make things. The professional version is 700 million, and it does not include star avatars and virtual star copyrights. In fact, the latter is more expensive. Several times, dozens of times more expensive."

Liu Qirong said, then, he closed the software and opened another software.

This software is familiar to everyone. "Fuxing" software, an AI video production tool from Fuxing Group, has the advantage of dynamic rendering, which is especially suitable for motion effects, and the price is 17.

After Liu Qirong opened it, everyone looked at the internal resource library, and it was not that it was not rich. They just saw the previous Maya software of Liu Qirong's professional director level, and then looked at Fuxing, a software in the mid-to-high-end market, and suddenly there were comparisons and gaps. Materials The library, scene selection, camera position advancement, and various parameters have shrunk greatly.

Liu Qirong introduced the previous script, saw the AI ​​scene produced by the previous top-level tools, and then looked at the current Fuxing software, and judged against each other. Although it is still a fairyland picture, if they have not experienced the baptism of "Maya" software, they will It looks OK, but after watching the previous scene, and looking at this one, the contrast immediately comes out.

The details of the bamboo forest have been reduced by at least a quarter, and the rendering of the fairyland fog has also become piled up, and the sense of elusiveness is lost. The characters' movements actually have smears, but the human eye can't distinguish them, but after the fight, the picture will appear like Darker, the outline of the character is not so bright, this is the dark area caused by smear.

Then change the scene, city, or space, it is obvious that the scene has shrunk a lot.

Compared with the previous Maya, the Lucky Star software in front of me is like eating a very sweet strawberry just now, and now eating a green apple, maybe eating an apple alone will be sour and sweet, but after eating strawberries, It's a mouthful of sourness.

"You just saw the difference between the effects of 700 million-level software and 17-level software effects. Not to mention, those cheaper software. We have to admit that the more expensive the software, whether it is character, picture performance, scene rendering , is indeed more excellent, which also makes us in the industry to pursue more and more investment in equipment. If the filming is not good, it means that the funds are not in place, and the equipment and software are not good enough. But in reality?"

"Chen Dachui's work uses one dollar's 'intelligent manufacturing' software, telling us that even with cheap software, even as cheap as one dollar, without money, you can still create excellent videos! It is not the only way to pursue the picture, a video, a movie, the most important and the core is the storytelling, and the work reflects the inner expression of the author. Even the most rubbish software, which is recognized as the most rubbish software, will only be used by skilled personnel. It will also turn waste into treasure and create unique usage and style!"

Everyone was stunned.

"This author deliberately used the software of one dollar to participate in the competition." Liu Qirong turned around and glanced at the name written on the whiteboard, "He used the software of one dollar and the simplest picture to make people laugh. What is Gao Ming, this is Gao Ming. To tell you the truth, when I saw it, I recognized this work.

It wraps the satire and metaphor of reality in the shell of comedy, so I can conclude at the time that such a work will never be buried, and we can even test it! "

Everyone reacted. Liu Qirong knew that they belonged to the media's commentators, and that they knew what happened today. Afterwards, they could convey these details through their mouths and pens. Therefore, Liu Qirong was teaching them a lesson, too. Through them, we will teach more people in related industries.

"You see, I deliberately didn't let this work pass the initial review!" Liu Qirong turned around and typed a few dots under "The Adventures of Chen Dachui" with a pen, "I just want everyone to see, even if the picture is the most primitive, Among all the works, the picture is the worst, even if such a work has no recommendation and traffic! It can also break through with its own core excellence!"

Concise and concise, after speaking, Liu Qirong dropped the pen, turned around and walked out of the review room holding the tablet.

Leaving a bunch of judges looking at each other in dismay.

Many people looked at the six characters "The Adventures of Chen Dachui" written on his whiteboard...

It turns out that this is the case, no wonder this work is placed in the disputed area, but there has been no follow-up status.

It turned out to be stuck by the boss.

……

Is what the boss said true?
I didn't give it a shortlisted label because I believed...it doesn't need any recommendation, it can rush up on its own?

He wants to teach everyone a good lesson in this way?Even give the industry a good lesson?
is that true?

Don't know?

The judges were actually puzzled.

Although Liu Qirong's resume is scary, everyone has to bend over in a low voice when they see him. Although you are a big boss and everyone recognizes your achievements, these words...

Is it too arbitrary?
……

Then, the fourth day of the preliminary evaluation.

The judges who arrived in the review room early in the morning received a message.In fact, someone had discovered the abnormality of the official website the night before, but it was confirmed that they went to work the next day.

Overnight, the official website of the organizing committee encountered a surge in traffic.

The technicians were in a hurry at first, but after checking, the source was clarified.

On the entire official website, the unusually high traffic flow only rushed to one target highland——

Competition entry No. 368.

"The Adventures of Chen Da hammer".
