Chapter 163 Motion Capture Studio
Motion capture, simply put, is a technology that uses external equipment to record data and restore postures to the displacement of human body structures.
This technology can be traced back to 1914, and its masterpiece is "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" launched by Disney in 1937.
In 2008, the science fiction movie "Avatar" was released. The entire film was completed using motion capture technology. The audio-visual effects displayed amazed the audience. This also achieved the perfect integration of motion capture technology in the movie, which was a milestone.
Meaning.
At this time, motion capture was still a bit crude, but even so, both the sensor positioning and the 3D model tracking system were all imported. For this studio, Chen Hao spent nearly 20 million, all of which were purchased from the most advanced foreign systems.
Equipment and systems.
The motion capture studio has a separate room of nearly 200 square meters on the 13th floor. Chen Hao even tried it out in person, wearing special clothes. All joints and key positions were covered with various sensors. At first glance, it seemed
Thought it was a humanoid hedgehog.
There is no wireless connection yet, and various wires on the sensor are connected to the terminal equipment and eventually transmitted to the computer.
Chen Hao first made a classic starting move from Wong Fei Hung, and then did some unknown routine of radio gymnastics. He thought about it for a few times and then called it a day.
What's more troublesome is that the data cables connecting the sensors can get tangled together accidentally. This is still a simple action. If you practice the moves, you don't know what the effect will be.
Chen Hao, who changed back into normal clothes, told Xu Changlong about the problem he had just encountered and asked them to pay attention to this place in the future.
Then he leaned in front of the computer and looked at the final result displayed by the computer. His eyes were very curious. After all, he had never seen this thing in his two lives. In his previous life, he mostly got a glimpse of it from some movie clips.
I saw a relatively rough 3D villain on the computer screen. He had no clothes and no expression. He was repeating Chen Hao's actions just now. He was very precise. Except for the slight lack of details, such as his provocative movements, there was no
It is captured that the overall movement feels a little stiff.
However, according to two foreign experts present, the hand movements were not captured because sensors were not added to the fingers. In addition, the stiffness can be adjusted later by the designer.
Xu Changlong said that with these devices, the various actions and martial arts moves of the characters in the game would be more natural and realistic. He later thought about it, and it was not enough to have action personnel alone, but also to have move design.
It happened that a friend of his friend knew Yuan Heping, and found out that he was currently working in Beijing as an action designer after completing The Matrix 3, so he contacted him privately to provide guidance for two days.
Chen Hao understood instantly and said that at such an old age, Mr. Yuan Ba must not let him run away in vain.
Hey, this is what Xu Changlong wants.
Chen Hao watched Xu Changlong go out to make a phone call. He didn't expect that this kid could find such a relationship privately. It seemed that he really raised the martial arts world as his own son.
Thinking of Yuan Heping's classic movies, Chen Hao secretly exclaimed, "Hey, this is Yuan Heping, Yuan Baye, eh,"
If Jet Li is the Kung Fu Emperor, then it would be inseparable from the man behind him, Yuan Heping. As the world's number one martial artist, he can give Jet Li a 120% bonus in the performance of his moves.
Similar combinations include Zhao Benshan and He Qingkui, both of whom are magical combinations that can only be encountered.
"Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng", "Fist of Fury", "Once Upon a Time" series and other classic moves and movements were all performed by Ba Ye himself. Later he went abroad to direct the "Matrix" trilogy, "Kill Bill", "
Danny the Wolf Dog》.
With Ba Ye joining us, there is no need to worry about failure.
Master Ba is here, is Brother Jie still far away? Xu Changlong is on the phone over there, and Chen Hao is also on the phone here, calling Xiong Xiaoge. After all, Chen Hao knows that investors should have a lot of connections.
I asked him if he could help me find connections and contacted Jet Li. He gave me a few words about the general situation and said that the fees were easy to negotiate and there were also benefits.
Xiong Xiaoge, didn’t say anything, replied and asked for help, then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Hao thought, if there is no reply today, tomorrow he will ask the marketing department Li Fang to contact the other brokerage company through official channels to seek cooperation.
At this time, Chen Hao felt that his shortcomings were that he lacked connections.
There is no way. He is a programmer and is not good at socializing and socializing. In the past, he would recommend any peer exchange meetings held by major media. The only public event he participated in was last year's awards ceremony. As a result, after going there, he talked to Yushang.
It's like walking on the shore, and I feel terribly uncomfortable.
I did get to know some media friends through some interviews before. Well, if it doesn’t work out then, I can try Xu Wenhan from Volkswagen Software.
As a result, within a few minutes, Xiong Xiaoge’s phone was turned on.
"Please note, this is Jet Li's agent's mobile phone number: XXXXXX...I just gave a rough outline, you can talk to them specifically."
"As it should be, Mr. Xiong is serious about it. You set a time and I'll treat you to dinner!"
"It's easy to talk about. I'm very interested in two of your previous companies. Let's talk about it in detail when the time comes. Hang up!"
After hanging up the phone, Chen Hao directly dialed the number he just wrote down. It would be more sincere for him to talk about this kind of thing in person.
After the call was connected, at first the other party wanted to deal with some routine matters for the sake of Xiong Xiaoge.
However, when Chen Hao said 10 million in 7 days, he could clearly feel the change in the other party's attitude on the phone. He said that Brother Jie had just finished filming "The Cradle" abroad and was currently resting at home in Hong Kong, but he needed to do it in person.
Just nod in agreement, Jet Li is right next to you, let Chen Hao wait a moment.
Just at this time, Xu Changlong came back from making a phone call. He saw his boss talking on the phone and gave him an OK gesture.
Chen Hao understood, now he was more confident.
After a while, a slightly hoarse voice came from the mobile phone. Chen Hao chatted with Jet Li for a few minutes focusing on the key points. The other party readily agreed. The two parties finalized the time and preliminary intentions, and waited until then to meet and sign the contract.
After all, Jet Li worked hard for several months before and after filming Cradle of Death, and was paid 100 million yuan. But this Century Zongheng invited him to come to Beijing for 7 days, and just showed some moves and gave him 10 million yuan. Anyway, he is idle, and no one can live with money.
, and I can also see Master Yuan, whom I haven’t seen for a long time.
After taking down Jet Li, the biggest star, and taking down the remaining Wuying-level ones, Chen Hao asked Li Fang to handle them.
All shortcomings in the motion capture plan have been made up. Chen Hao and Xu Changlong chatted about the game engine.
Those international students will be able to return home after November and serve the company.
The headhunters are also very capable. After all, these orders are enough for them to make a year's income.
We have poached more than twenty talented people from Xishanju, and of course the poaching rewards are quite generous.
Combined with Heluo's own engine, Xu Changlong now finally has some confidence to create a game engine belonging to Century Interactive Entertainment by the end of the year.
Chapter completed!
