Play Game of Life

Li Rushan didn't understand much, but he was greatly shocked.

Is there still such an operation?

The face model and the body model are separated to find different people to play?

As a result, according to what Lu Zhixing said, he did a simple search on the Internet and found that there are quite a few game makers who do this!

For example, in a classic survival horror game abroad, the supporting actress with many roles in it was split into four different actors.

A face model, responsible for capturing facial expressions and facial appearance.

A phantom, responsible for collecting body data.

A motion capture, which is responsible for capturing actions such as running and overcoming obstacles in the game.

a dub.

So the last female character seen in the game was actually played by four people. If you just look at the face, it must be the most similar to the face model.

But the figure of the face model may not be so good, not protruding enough, and the figure of the phantom is more popular.

As for the motion capture, it is necessary to find additional people, because although the face models and body models are good-looking, some movements of climbing over obstacles or climbing are definitely not as good-looking as those made by professional motion capture actors.

Not to mention dubbing, ordinary people really can’t do this job, no matter how good-looking the face model and body model are, it’s useless. A good-looking person does not necessarily have a good voice, and a good voice does not necessarily mean clear words and full of emotions.

In short, a classic role requires four actors to perform together to achieve the ultimate.

Of course, manufacturers do this not only to keep improving, but also to avoid risks.

Binding a game character to an actor is a relatively risky thing. For example, when the sequel is released, what should the actor do if the lion opens his mouth? Or what should I do if the actor made some bad remarks that caused bad influence? Or what if it's simply that the actors don't want to continue working together and want to change?

If it is highly tied to an actor, the manufacturer will find it very difficult when these situations arise.

And if there are four actors, it won't be a big problem to replace one or two of them.

This made Li Rushan open up a new way of thinking.

"Can you really do this? Mr. Lu, we are also looking for two groups of people? One group of body models and one group of face models?"

Lu Zhixing explained: "Strictly speaking, we are also looking for four groups of people, but motion capture and dubbing do not need a strict one-to-one correspondence. Just find a few people for motion capture and dubbing. most roles.

"The key is the body model and the face model. The former is mainly responsible for shaping the body and performing some basic movements, while the latter is mainly responsible for the interpretation of facial details and expressions. Of course, if the face model is used as an old drama, the level of its own lines is relatively high. Well, he can also be in charge of the dubbing work."

Li Rushan was in awe: "Understood Mr. Lu, this really is the idea of ​​striving for perfection!

"I stroke it.

"First of all, in order to better express literary and opera, we can directly invite those classic old artists from the old Three Kingdoms to perform some key scenes, which is a huge plus.

"Their functions are equivalent to face models in ordinary games.

"Secondly, when shooting some key action scenes, we need professional motion capture actors. For example, using specific weapons to perform martial arts, getting on and off horses quickly, and so on.

"In the end, we had to find a professional dubbing team to dub the characters. Except for a few old actors with excellent line skills, other characters were corrected to the best condition with dubbing.

"Wait, it seems that the problem is coming, so what is our audition?

"Phantom? It seems that there is no need to deliberately choose it. Isn't it enough to find a motion-capture actor to make do with it?"

After such a stroke, Li Rushan suddenly felt that it didn't matter whether he did the audition or not.

Lu Zhixing shook his head: "No, no, this is actually very necessary! People with different body types will have very different collection effects.

"The phantom is not only body modeling, but also responsible for some simple movements, such as basic movements such as walking.

"Do you know what Lu Bu of the old Three Kingdoms was criticized more about?"

Li Rushan thought for a while: "...I don't know."

In his impression, the characters of the Old Three Kingdoms are quite classic, and it seems that there is not much criticism, right?

Lu Zhixing said: "Body size! The biggest problem with Lu Bu of the old Three Kingdoms is that he is not big enough.

"Although the original book didn't directly mention Lu Bu's exact height, it did say that Lu Bu could lift Ji Ling up with one hand, 'like lifting a child'.

"Ji Ling is already a strong man with a height of more than eight feet. If Lu Bu can lift him up with one hand, he would have to be nine feet or even ten feet tall, and his weight is estimated to be quite exaggerated.

"Based on this calculation, even according to the size at that time, he would have to be around 2.23 meters.

"The actor Lu Bu of the Old Three Kingdoms is 184 tall, which is indeed quite tall, but when everyone is very tall, this height is not enough. Standing in the crowd, there is no feeling of standing out from the crowd.

"Think about it, there is a difference between a person with a height of 180 and a person with a height of 220, even in some very simple movements.

"For example, just to enter the door, a person with a height of 180 may come in with a straight waist, but a person with a height of 220 has to bow his head slightly. This is different in terms of movement.

"With such a difference in details, it is definitely unrealistic to adjust the action in the later stage."

Li Rushan came to a sudden: "So that's it! That is to say, when we choose Lu Bu's body model, we have to choose this kind of tall one?"

Lu Zhixing nodded: "Yes, and it must be tall and tall, and its appearance is closer to Lu Bu."

Li Rushan nodded slightly: "Well... it is reasonable to spend money in this way.

"Hey, wait, Mr. Lu, then how do we judge what is closer to Lu Bu?"

Lu Zhixing smiled: "This, of course, depends on how I feel."

Li Rushan nodded: "Okay! Then I trust Mr. Lu in your feelings!"

For him, it doesn't matter if Mr. Lu speaks out, after all, this is Wolong, and it is still worthy of trust.

It's better for Mr. Lu to choose people himself than to find a few directors to decide together, right?

"Then I'm going to assign tasks now, and release the news of the audition model actors as soon as possible!"

The development time of "Sword Shadow Liaoyuan" is very tight, and audition for actors is time-consuming, so we have to hurry up.

Ever since he had a goal, Li Rushan has become quite active. Although he can't help much, running around has indeed played a role in boosting morale.

After Li Rushan left, Lu Zhixing silently opened the material library in his field of vision.

This time his goal is: the original painting in the material library!

For a long time, Lu Zhixing's use of the system has been mainly based on collecting materials. After all, collecting materials is much cheaper than buying materials directly.

But in some special cases, it is very cost-effective to buy materials directly.

Like now.

There are various styles and types of materials of the Three Kingdoms in the material library, and there are even dozens or hundreds of original paintings of different styles for the same general.

Going directly to the audition is like looking for a needle in a haystack. How many photos do you have to look at to find the right one?

But looking for it in the material library is different.

Taking Lu Bu as an example, Lu Zhixing can first find an image of Lu Bu that he is most satisfied with in the material database, and then take this image and go directly to the folk audition to find the closest body model.

In this way, wouldn't it be more effective?
