has always been in the national comics industry, sci-fi subject matter is a difficult genre, because of its own lack of experience, plus sci-fi genre works require a lot of financial support, a little careless all efforts will be wasted, so many The animators would rather give up than take risks.
But now, with the gradual improvement in production technology, there is a deeper exploration in the field of national comics. The sci-fi field is like a rare resource that has not been fully developed, and it is eager to conduct in-depth exploration, which has led to the continuous launch of sci-fi national comics.
After the fire of the apocalyptic sci-fi themed animation " Spirit Cage ", the animation "Eat the Stars" followed closely, but compared to the spirit cage, that difference is more than one or two points.
Technology Application
A few days ago, the animation "Trace to the Source of Awakening of the End" has also been broadcast, and the overall feeling is average. Until now, the broadcast of a full CG sci-fi animation called "Knight Skeleton" that was produced using Unreal Engine 4, once again let us see the vision of the development of the science fiction theme of the National Comic.
and Unreal Engine 4 is the most widely used in the production of large-scale online games. The ultimate high-definition picture and infinitely close to the real effect are his biggest characteristics, which is why many large-scale online games do better than animation.
screen production
to give the simplest example, why the many game CG animations, both in production and effect display, are more amazing than animation? The reason lies in the use of production technology.
As far as game CG animation is concerned, first of all, the image quality has been upgraded to a higher level. And for games that focus on visual experience, giving users the most realistic, gorgeous, and sci-fi experience has become the top priority. Therefore, when this technology is applied to animation, there is no doubt that it is definitely a visual shock. . This point of
has already been experienced in the first episode of the animation. The battle between the creator speaker and the abyss lord gave us the feeling that in addition to shock is an explosion, it was a visual shock and an explosion in special effects, which made people call a sense of sight of World of Warcraft.
If you go to the Black Rock Network, the production team of the animation "Knight Skeleton", you will find that he not only serves the animation production, but also covers the production of terminal games and mobile games, so the animation can show comparable games The shocking effect of the picture quality is not surprising.
content laying
in terms of image quality, the animation skeletal knight is no less inferior to the original animation spirit cage. In terms of content, we know that although the world view of the spirit cage is limited to the ground and the sky, he has spent nearly two episodes telling it, and it is still calculated by the length of the single episode of the spirit cage animation.
The world view of the skeletal knight has already flown out of the solar system, entered the entire universe , and rose between the planets. Therefore, the world view of the Skeleton Knights is evident, and the elements of science fiction, adventure, suspense and so on embodied in it all attract our attention.
If the characteristics of the spirit cage are the large plot capacity of a single episode, many foreshadowings, and the ultimate in animation details, then the characteristics of the skeletal knight lies in the exploration of the unknown universe and the shocking picture experience.
conscience work
Of course, the more important point is that animation is willing to invest. Careful friends have discovered that in less than two episodes before and after the appearance of the male protagonist Chen Mo, five different images have been successively changed, namely the image of the Heijing laboratory, the image of the hospital, the image of the Spark, and the image of the wild star And the image of a gentleman.
Compared with the images in other animations that have remained unchanged for thousands of years, this is definitely a work of conscience. When it comes to conscience, the duration of the animation is also very conscientious. Although the duration of a single episode is not comparable to the Lingcage, it is definitely in the leading position in the duration of a single episode compared to many national comic works. If
is simply longer than the duration, it would have been lost as the same type of Star Devouring Sky, and the Star Devouring Sky obviously tends to be a fantasy-style " Dragon Aotian " plot, although it is a science fiction theme, in fact It is a fantasy type with the character of "Shuangwen" novels.
At present, the animated skeletal knight has made a good start. Although it is not as detailed as the spirit cage, it has been firmly in the forefront of the same type of national innovation sci-fi works. I hope that the skeletal knight will remain the same in the subsequent plots. Being as dazzling as it was when it first debuted, it gave us even more shock and explosion.
