Chapter 139: won't be silent for long

On the big screen, the titles belonging to Disney appeared, followed by the titles of Pixar, which was very interesting.

The next moment, a picture completely different from the hand-drawn animation appeared, and the animated characters were exquisite and scary.

If the picture at the beginning was just different from the hand-painted animation, then the toys moved one by one and appeared vividly on the big screen. The visual effect displayed was absolutely shocking.

In order to create a large number of toy characters on the screen, Pixar Animation Studios has reached licensing agreements with a number of toy manufacturers.

And, Pixar Animation Studios used 400 computer models to optimize these characters in order to achieve the desired effect.

Of course, the success of a film does not only depend on the image quality, character image, etc., the storyline in the film is also the biggest selling point.

That's why some people say that "Toy Story" produced by Pixar Animation Studio lacks soul.

However, it turns out that John Lasseter gave the film the soul, and the story he expressed through the film is perfect.

No matter how wonderful the outside world is, it does not belong to the world of toys after all.

In fact, the plot of the film is not complicated, after all, this is a full-age animated feature film.

Andy was a six-year-old boy with many toys that took on a life of their own when he was away from home.

Next, the biggest bright spot in the movie appeared, and Andy got back a new toy—Buzz Lightyear, the Space Ranger. Due to his advanced performance, he threatened the leadership position of the original toy leader, Cowboy Woody, Woody began to try every means to fight against Buzz Lightyear, and finally came to the outside world together by accident.

Facing the strange world, they were almost unable to take a single step, so they could only put aside their previous suspicions and cooperate with each other, and finally found their way home.

Although the plot is a bit simple and even old-fashioned, with the support of Pixar's 3D technology, the film has been given a new life, and the era of 3D animated feature films has come.

Roger Allers stared at the screen, with a very complicated expression, and said: "How is it possible?"

It seems a little unbelievable that the animated feature film being screened in front of him is the 3D animation "Toy Story" that Disney has always believed to have no soul.

Roger-Ailers grabbed the armrest of the chair with one hand, and covered his chest with the other hand, as if he could feel the blood in his heart gradually getting colder.

Last year he directed "The Lion King", which pushed hand-painted animation to a peak. However, in just one year, today we feel a crisis, which comes from the crisis of 3D animation technology.

Ryan didn't have much feeling, but felt that "Toy Story" on the screen was more realistic visually and the characters were more clear than "The Lion King" released last year.

If I have to say something, it is the advent of 3D computer technology, which has a feeling of seeing history.

"Wedge, what do you think?" Ryan turned to look at Chris Wedge with a serious face and asked.

"A terrific work, John really did it." Chris Wedge's tone was a bit complicated.

Both of them have worked in Disney, and they understand one thing very well. The core of an animated feature film is always the content and plot, followed by the production technology.

3D animation is the perfect combination of 3D animation technology and storyline.

But it is very difficult to achieve the desired effect.

Apparently Pixar Animation Studios and John Lasseter did it.

Combining 3D animation technology with Disney's long-standing concepts has created a new era, which belongs to the era of Pixar Animation Studios and 3D animation technology.

Chris Wedge has to admit that John Lasseter is far behind him, especially at the technical level. With the current technology accumulation of Blue Sky Studios, it is at least a step behind Pixar, or even more than that.

"I want to purchase a batch of hardware equipment and production software from Pixar." Chris Wedge seemed a little depressed.

"Yes." Ryan didn't refuse, but agreed very much, purchasing equipment and production software from Pixar.

The technology of Blue Sky Studio in the previous life has always had some defects in the early stage, especially the processing of the character's hair, the effect is very poor.

On the contrary, Pixar Animation Studios is a bunch of jerks? In addition to ideas and stories, there are various innovative technologies.

It can be said that some of the current 3D animation technology standards are formulated by Pixar Animation Studios, and many 3D animation technology patents developed, including hardware and software patents, are all in the hands of Pixar Animation Studios.

Of course, it is impossible for Pixar Animation Studio to monopolize 3D animation production technology. There are other companies in the market that develop similar software. For example, Blue Sky Studio has developed a lot of software, but the effect is obviously not as good as Pixar.

It is also very important that Pixar Animation Studios can sell any software and hardware as long as it can afford the price.

"It seems that you chose to make a 3D animation feature film, which is very wise." Monica Bellucci looked at the audiences who were only a few years old above the audience seats, their eyes were fixed on the screen, and they let out a sound of surprise from time to time. Huh, I couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The biggest advantage of animated feature films lies in the audience. Often a family goes to the theater together, and there is almost no one watching the movie alone. Besides the box office, the derivative copyright income far exceeds that of live-action movies.

"I just believe in Blue Sky Studio and Wedge." Ryan said truthfully.

In another studio or without Chris Wedge, even knowing that the future belongs to the era of 3D animation, he would not dare to invest in a special effects studio, let alone spend more than 30 million U.S. dollars to produce A 3D animated feature film.

Chris Wedge smiled, and his mood suddenly became much better.

Although he is one step behind John Lasseter, he and Blue Sky Studios are about to catch up and let everyone know that besides Pixar Animation Studios, there is another company called Blue Sky Studios.

The screening of "Toy Story" was coming to an end. Helen and Sophia didn't say a word during the whole process. They deeply felt the magic of 3D animation technology, which can be said to be a revolutionary technology.

It is estimated that for a long period of time, apart from Pixar Animation Studios, only Blue Sky Studios has the technical ability to initially produce 3D animation feature films, which is enough to explain that Ryan's decision to invest in Blue Sky Studios was very correct.

Even, once Ryan releases the news that he intends to sell Blue Sky Studio, he may be able to recover all the investment immediately, and even make a fortune.

But Sophia knew very well that Ryan would definitely not sell Blue Sky Studios at this stage, but would choose to continue producing 3D animation feature films.

After a while, the screening of the whole film ended, and there was warm applause in the auditorium.

This is the applause that belongs to "Toy Story", and it is also the applause that belongs to Pixar Studio and 3D animation technology.

In the face of films that dare to innovate in technology~www.wuxiaspot.com~ North American media have never been stingy with words of praise.

Chris Wedge took a deep breath, stood up, walked up to John Lasseter, gave him a big hug, and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, John, you did a great job. This is a masterpiece. will be remembered by all.”

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and whispered in John Lasseter's ear, "Blue Sky Studios won't be silent for too long, and you will soon see another 3D animated feature film appear."

John Lasseter narrowed his eyes, and then congratulated him: "Congratulations Wedge, you are about to achieve your long-standing wish."

It is not a secret that Blue Sky Studio has obtained investment to produce a 3D animated short film.

However, what Chris Wedge just said was an animated feature film, a 3D animated feature film, and Blue Sky Studio has already begun preparations for the production of a 3D animated feature film.

In this regard, Chris Wedge did not keep it secret. Next, Blue Sky Studios will purchase a large number of equipment and software from Pixar Animation Studios, so there is no need to keep it secret, and according to Ryan’s request, Blue Sky Studios will soon officially Announce this news to the outside world.
