my crew is not human

Chapter 652 Cooking Without Rice
As expected, all the beautiful ideas will have various troubles after they are put into practice.

And the trouble this time is precisely the sudden death ghost itself.

Sudden Death Ghost changes all screens in seconds, but his biggest problem is that he doesn't know how to change.

Just like Ke Yaoyao can do all kinds of art in seconds, but she doesn't know how to design, she has to follow the pictures.

Cao Hongyue filmed the movie in pieces, all the shots were material, and it became a huge jigsaw puzzle for Sudden Death Ghost.

So this made his efficiency drop a lot.

For Cao Hongyue's film, he worked hard for three days.

Three days is not a long time, but for the sudden death ghost, it is an arduous task.

The little ghosts don't get paid, but they have their own tempers and requirements because of this: the sudden death ghost said that this work is too tiring, and you have to reduce my workload.

The key jigsaw puzzle cannot be completed by many people, so Li Xianyun also started to design it.

Two options were finally determined.

One is to reduce the demand for materials.Some relatively simple shots can be shot in real life.For the content that needs to be synthesized, block it as much as possible.

The second is to let Yi Sheng cooperate in the later stage and label all the materials.

In this way, the sudden death ghost will be relaxed.

After getting this part done, there is only one problem left, which is the synchronization problem.

Especially in some action scenes, synchronization and incoordination often occur.

After the final design, it was decided to shoot the scene first and then the process.

That is to say, after all the scenes are shot, the scene is produced once, and then the scene is released in the studio, and then the actors perform, so that the synchronization problem can be solved.

But in this way, the whole shooting becomes more and more streamlined.

Pre-rehearsal, overall planning, after the completion of the filming, the crew will directly shoot the location, after the shooting of the location, do the post-production, after the post-production, shoot the actors, after shooting the actors, do the post-production, and if necessary, another round of shooting can be done to make up for the details... Just talk to the supplier It is the same as supplying goods to the final product assembly line.

Calculated according to this process, in fact, not much time is saved. The problem is that the number of groups has dropped.

In the traditional mode, a large crew of 300 people shoots for [-] to [-] days.

In the existing mode, a large crew of 300 people shoots for [-] to [-] days.

In the improved mode, a large crew of 100 people shoots for one week to 30 days.

The key actors are concentrated, and there is no need to change scenes. The number of working days in the improved mode is that the increase in the process will not save much time, but the actors are all concentrated in the studio for shooting, and all can be finished in five days, and there will be no need to change scenes.

Those who run the venue are photographers, artists and other technical personnel, and actors do not need to go.

The filming cost of the crew is equivalent to another reduction of about one and a half times.

For example, in the past, when we wanted to switch scenes to shoot foreign scenes, originally there were 300 people in a large crew, and it took dozens of days to go there. Now, [-] people are in charge of filming scenes. There is no need to move around in the scenes, and the efficiency is high with fewer people. The filming can be completed in two days and then come back.

The cost of this province is wild.

In the past, 2000 million productions could be completed with 2000 million, but now with 2 million, 2.5 to [-] million films can be completed without water injection.

The reason why the reduction was not more severe was because of factors such as big names and venue rental factors, because if you rent some venues for an hour, they will give you a day's calculation, and big names don't cut their salary according to the time ratio.

In addition, the pre-production will save a lot of trouble. In the past, the crew had to wait for makeup, but now there is no need to wait.

I shoot my scenes, and your artists can go directly to the studio behind them, just like when He Junwei was shooting movies.

No matter how long the makeup time is, the photographer and the lighting engineer will wait at most, and no one else needs to be present, so I am afraid that you will take a long time?
The makeup artists expressed their joy: We can finally pursue quality instead of speed.

Moreover, such a method can improve the efficiency of even ordinary services and ordinary VIP services-the arrangement of lights and scenery in the studio is much more convenient than that outside, and sometimes even no cloth is needed.

In other words, the profits of small and medium-sized crews have increased significantly.

So after confirming that the problem was not serious, Li Xianyun decided to shoot the first and second parts of UFO Ghost Book like this.

Originally, it was planned to shoot one film at a time, but now, two more films were started, otherwise the construction period would be too short to operate.

Basically, everyone's shooting plan is now planned according to time, and if the action is too fast, we will shoot a few more.

Of course, the big head still has to be given to the studio.

UFO Ghost Book's plan is to cost [-] million for one film and [-] million for two films. Now that it's done like this, [-] million will go to the studio, and the net profit will be more than [-] million.

The studio currently has a scale of tens of thousands of people, and only one hundred people are dispatched for a single film, and the whole project only takes forty days.

Where to go to reason?

Fortunately, not all films are like this, otherwise the studio would really make tens of billions in profits a month.

Xuandong said: The market size has seriously hindered us. According to the current progress, Yisheng Studio can contract nearly half of the world's production.

The result of the improvement in efficiency is that Yisheng Studio suddenly found that it seemed to have no work to do-profits were soaring, but the workload was declining.

Therefore, Yisheng Studio had to temporarily stop expanding, and instead fell into an extreme hunger for business.

The business department of Yisheng Media ran around the business, and even Li Feng, who had just arrived in the United States, the first thing he did was to talk to Baike about the agency processing services of Yisheng Studio.

The sudden demand made Baike confused.

AI face swapping is still in full swing, and holographic images are coming out, and we plan to participate in some shares, but now you tell us that you need a lot of film and television production business?A big production with an investment of [-] million yuan, can you finish it in one to two months?Also maintain quality and quantity?

Crazy is this?
But unlike in the past, Baike now also clearly knows the technology of Yisheng Media.

In particular, this brand-new model itself is an extension of the establishment and application of AI face-changing technology, so that you can't believe it.

In the end, Bai Ke agreed to run and produce for them in major Hollywood film and television companies.

Of course, you must get a discount.

For the production of [-] million yuan, you give me [-] million yuan to get it done!

After several rounds of discussions, the two parties finally reached a consensus.

It is impossible for Hollywood to hand over all the production to Yisheng Media, so the production content is split, priced according to the production content, and finally Yisheng Media is responsible for the seamless synthesis, and the pricing is based on demand.

According to this method, only about one-third of a production of [-] million yuan may be in the hands of Yisheng Media, but it is enough.

As an intermediary, Baike Company will also get a commission, and some of them belong to Yisheng Media, and they are still left-handed and right-handed.

After reaching an agreement, the top management of the Baike company also rushed out to run the relationship.

With the help of AI face-changing technology, they now have a special status in Hollywood, and as a result, they really brought in several big deals for Yisheng Media.

The skilled workers of Yisheng Studio, who had no rice to cook, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Yisheng Studios has started to cook without rice, and people outside can imagine it even more.

On the one hand, the film and television industry is booming, but on the other hand, a large number of related practitioners have nothing to do.

The purpose of Li Xianyun's upgrading of the production process is to recruit more people and occupy the global industrial chain, but the first step of planning has brought about further difficulties for domestic practitioners.

There are always pains in reform, but before Li Xianyun took care of them, he made them suffer first.

This has also increased public criticism of Yisheng Media again.

Many people scolded Li Xianyun for this, and the only thing Li Xianyun can do is to speed up technology output and grab money from outside.

For this reason, the overseas branch and Baike Company are also expanding with all their strength. Baike Global Publicity and Distribution Company is no longer involved in publicity and distribution, but will first start the film and television production business, and then will run the laying of holographic film and television equipment.

The personnel of the publicity and distribution companies said one after another: What are we doing?
