When Jingtian changed into a motion capture suit and came to the set, the crew members were still busy preparing for the filming.

Motion capture, simply put, captures the actions of the actors during performance, and then synchronizes these actions to the virtual characters in the computer, so that the actions of the virtual characters are no different from those of the real person, so as to achieve realistic and natural effects.

This technology was born in the 1970s. "Comprehensive Memories" in 1990 was the first movie to use motion capture technology. The lenses used in the film only lasted a few seconds. The birth of the classic motion capture character Gollum in "Lord of the Rings" in 2001 became a watershed in the development of motion capture technology. Since then, motion capture has become a very important part of the film's special effects.

However, motion capture has always been carried out in a special studio. An infrared emitting device is arranged around the camera. The infrared rays emitted are reflected into the camera's lens through the marking points on the capture suit. The camera is equipped with a filter to filter out other light other than infrared rays, so the position of the marking points is obtained in the camera.

There is a problem with this shooting method, which is that it requires two shots. The actors must first perform on the scene, then return to the motion capture studio and perform again, and finally perform synthesis. During the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", this cumbersome process caused dissatisfaction among the actors. They were unwilling to return to the studio and perform again, and the humid and dark environment on the set could not ensure the normal operation of the motion capture system.

Industrial Light and Magic was ordered to develop a motion capture system that can be shot directly on the set. The system can complete motion capture on the set with only a few ordinary high-definition cameras, without being disturbed by the on-site light, and can also obtain lighting references through gray capture clothing, killing multiple goals at one stroke.

There are two main types of robots in "Apocalypse of the Future", one is a heavy combat robot, which is more bulky and can be completed through CG; the other is a light robot, which is about the same size as a real person, and can do various flexible movements, even fighting. The effect can only be completed through motion capture. "Apocalypse of the Future" has many war scenes and outdoor scenes, and the crew uses the industrial light and magic system.

The special capture suit looks more like a gray one-piece swimsuit or a swimming cap. Unlike other motion capture systems, except for the traditional reflective balls used on the chest, back and hands, the other key parts use black and white marking tapes, just like small plasters attached.

It was Jingtian's first time wearing a motion capture suit. He looked very excited. He jumped to Zhang Ran, put his hands on his hips and asked, "Master, do you think I look good in all my clothes?"

Zhang Ran glared at her and cursed: "Do you think you are here to go for beauty pageants!"

Jingtian stuck out his tongue and asked curiously, "But Master, why don't I have a helmet? When I watch "Avatar", I will wear a helmet that looks very strange, why don't I have it?"

Zhang Ran explained: "That's a headband-style expression capture system, used to capture the facial expressions of the actors. You act as a robot, and the robot has no expressions, so we don't need that." As he said that, Zhang Ran turned to John Noel, the head of the special effects group, and said: "John, you find someone to take her to model."

The two were having fun chatting. Jingtian walked into the restaurant wearing a motion capture suit and holding a plate. She looked up and soon saw Zhang Ran's position. She smiled and ran over with the plate and sat down next to Zhang Ran. She greeted Robert De Niro first, and then smiled sweetly at Zhang Ran: "Master, are you having a meal?"

The smile on Zhang Ran's face disappeared without a trace. He rolled his eyes and said, "How fresh, I'm sitting in the restaurant without eating at noon, can I play mahjong?"

Jingtian stuck out his tongue and said, "Master, I've finished modeling. Please let me film in the afternoon!"

"Okay, don't cry then!" Zhang Ran couldn't help but say, "I've never seen any girl as good as you."

Jingtian asked with his head tilted, "Master, do you also think girls must be very thin to look good?"

Zhang Ran shook his head and said, "No, I think it's better for girls to have a bit of meat. They are thin like skeletons, and their faces are ugly, and of course they can't be fat. As an actor, it's necessary to control their body shape and manage their figure. Actresses don't require you to train your vest line, at least not a bucket waist, double chin, and elephant legs! In fact, domestic actresses are better. After all, girls love beauty and pay more attention to their figure, male actors are worse. You see, Hollywood male actors often have muscles after taking off their clothes, while many of our domestic male actors are exposed to fat."

Jingtian suddenly realized, "It turns out that Master likes to be a tomboy with a vest line. As your second apprentice, I will also go to exercise and try to get a vest line!"

Zhang Ran couldn't stand Jing Tian, ​​who was very puzzled, scolded with a stern face: "Shut up! Speak again and cancel your afternoon drama!"

Jingtian was very excited when he heard that he had his own play, and he stopped talking, and he took his own plate and started eating voraciously.

After lunch, Jing Tian was pulled to train by Zhang Ran. The scene to be filmed in the afternoon was that three light robots, under the cover of two heavy robots, charged towards the remaining forces of the First Cavalry Division hiding into the town, but were violently counterattacked by Adams and others. One of the robots was blown up by bombs, and the bombed robot was played by Jing Tian.

Zhang Ran pulled Jingtian and two other actors to the set, told them the scene, told them the action and effect they wanted, and then the fireworks master told them the route of travel. Then the crew staff tied the Wias to Jingtian and began rehearsal.

Jingtian and the others started running according to the designated route. After Jingtian and the others ran to their positions, the people standing at each explosion point would use their mouths to imitate the sound of the explosion and detonate. There were five explosion points in this scene, the fifth explosion point was at Jingtian's feet. When the fifth explosion point exploded, Jingtian was pulled into the air by Wiya and then landed in the posture required by Zhang Ran.

It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and the shooting was ready, and Jing Tian and the others were very skilled in rehearsing.

Just as Zhang Ran shouted, Jingtian and the other two actors held guns and began to charge forward according to the designated route. At the same time, Williams, who had been staring at their running route, began to issue instructions. After hearing the "explosion", the fireworksman in charge immediately pressed the switch in his hand after hearing the "explosion".

The explosion point, which was about four meters behind Jing Tian and the others, was immediately exploded. The soil and cork buried in the explosion point exploded, three or four meters high. Then, the second explosion point exploded three meters away; the third explosion point exploded two meters away; the fourth explosion point exploded one meter away.

The dust raised by the bomb explosion soared into the air like a covered sandstorm, and then it poured into Jingtian and the others like a heavy rain!

Jing Tian was watching other people filming war scenes on the crew these days, and she was very happy. She felt so spectacular and fun! But now when the explosion was really blowing behind her, the huge explosion sounded so loud that she was dizzy and her chest was tight, her ears were sore, and the dust was choking, and she was so confused that she couldn't breathe. She was confused and her legs were trembling.

At this moment, the last explosion spot exploded, and this explosion spot was at Jingtian's feet.

With a loud bang, Jingtian was completely stunned by the explosion!
Chapter completed!
