Chapter 87
Chapter 86 New project
After Ye Jiayi joined the company, no matter how the two people were, at least for Fan Zhe, the burden on him was relieved instantly.
Before, although Tang Zhiqi was sharing his work, after all, he still had to watch many things himself.
But now, except for project development, he doesn’t care about anything.
The special effects production project of “Magic Shadow War” has already entered the final stage, and after entering May, it has been completely completed.
The entire production of special effects involves hundreds of shots. The dimensional system has all completed the calculations, and all have been delivered to the rendering farm for cloud rendering.
After seeing the preliminary demo, the film party once again expressed satisfaction.
According to the contract, in addition to the 6 million deposit paid at the beginning, after the production of the special effects is completed, the film party needs to pay 6 million.
The remaining 8 million will not be settled until the rendering results come out and the full version of the film is delivered.
In fact, the production process of the movie “King of the Shadows” was quite difficult. During the filming period, many moths were created because of rights struggles or other things. Otherwise, there would be no going to Xunyang to finish the location. After the crew was disbanded, the shots were re-shot again, and it shouldn’t happen that the film is finished, and even a special effects production company has not dealt with this kind of thing.
The cost of rendering is to be paid by Dimension Entertainment, which is stipulated in the contract.
The entire rendering project is estimated to end in June, but this matter does not need to worry about “Dimensional Entertainment”. It is good to have someone staring at it and keep communicating with the rendering farm.
The filming team of “King of Shadows” originally planned to skip tickets and change the release date, but after hearing that the rendering work would be completed in June, I discussed it internally and decided to keep the original August. The schedule of going online.
When the special effects rendering is announced in June, they will have two months to do post-editing, which should be able to keep up with the schedule.
And now, all the parts that need to be completed for this film ‘Dimensional Entertainment’ have been processed. In the follow-up, the only thing Fan Zhe can look forward to is that he hopes their later scissors can be more reliable, otherwise, it will really blind his own special effects.
……
After the delivery of the project of “Magic Shadow Wars”, half of the development department’s strength was idle.
Sun Yilang proposed to Fan Zhe that several people would be transferred back. Now, most of the “Project Team” development team he leads are composed of relatively low-level painters, and he can’t bear it anymore.
But Fan Zhe refused his request, and at most he could only transfer two people back.
Although Dimension Entertainment is currently an ongoing project, only the third season of “Project Team” remains.
At present, there are not many experts in this project team, just a few, and the others are basically assistant painters.
But the development process and working methods of this project are already very mature. The drawing of pictures and images is not difficult, and it can be handled with existing human hands. Although the progress is not fast, it is still advancing steadily.
That’s fine.
Fan Zhe believes that this project does not require such a master to support the field.
Rather than throwing them into the “Project Team” project, it is better to call them out to draw things that are not too difficult and the assistant artist is fully competent.
Although Dimension Entertainment has not started the next project for the time being, this does not mean that there is no other work.
Currently, there are already three works in ‘Dimension Entertainment’’s own copyright library. Among them, “Fantasy Three Kingdoms” and “Hell Apartment” have not yet entered the development sequence.
Fan Zhe’s task for these people, including Miller and Luo Qi, is to freely choose to draw some conceptual drawings and conceptual illustrations of scenes, characters, and illustrations for these two works.
These things may not be useful for the time being, but they can be sealed together with related copyrighted content. In the future, once this project is to be started, a large number of original designs will be readily available, and the work will be smoother.
And Fan Zhe, in fact, is also carefully considering what to do with the next project.
Now, the financial situation of Dimension Entertainment is very healthy, and the key is to have sufficient cash.
On their accounts, there are 20 to 30 million in cash, and even if they don’t do anything, in the next few months, they can recover more than 10 million in income through the balance of the previous projects.
However, when starting a new project, he wants to say hello to Ye Jiayi.
At present, the biggest cost investment of Dimension Entertainment is in labor costs.
In addition to labor costs, Fan Zhe also discussed with Ye Jiayi, preparing to establish a company overseas called ‘Dimensional Technology’. This will be a shell company. Any future project of Dimension Entertainment will be paid to Dimension Technology in the form of outsourcing , and Dimension Technology will inject capital back to Dimension Entertainment to keep the account intact.
Ye Jiayi didn’t have any curiosity about this dimensional technology, she knew it was a secret.
Regarding what Fan Zhe said, she said it works.
In this way, after counting, Fan Zhe’s newly opened project will get a budget of 10 million to pay for the price of ‘Dimensional Technology’-of course, the money will eventually return to Dimension Entertainment’s hands.
As for labor costs, including project bonuses and the like, they will be transferred from the company normally.
At this point, Fan Zhe can start the next project with peace of mind.
For the next project, Fan Zhe basically decided to do “The 4.6 Billion Ensemble of Evolution”.
Prior to this, he and his team of painters had done about two or three different conceptual designs. In the end, Fan Zhe chose one of them after many trade-offs.
This version of the design, the whole style is very beautiful, the primitive underwater world, like a dream.
In fact, no matter which version of the design is, it is based on the scientific basis as much as possible.
But in that era, no one has seen it, and no scientific basis can completely restore the era when the earth has just arrived in the solar system.
As long as there is no principled error, the design can be done in a wide range.
There is a version of the design before, the whole color and design will be more rigorous, and it will become more textured.
But that style looks a little dull, which may make people feel a little boring.
Especially younger children.
The color is richer and the visual effect is more dreamy, which will make the whole film more beautiful and enhance the viewability.
