Light gray clouds spread out layer by layer, and the sparse sunlight faintly outlines golden lines between the clouds. The breeze is gentle, revealing a unique tranquility and leisure in London, as if a moment of peace was stolen between the changing weather of storms and rainstorms. So he pulled closer to the collar of the windbreaker coat, put down his steps, and enjoyed the leisure of a cup of coffee.

"Are you in good health?" Lan Li was not polite or restrained, holding the knife and fork in both hands, and enjoying her breakfast in an orderly manner.

Although the real nobles still pay attention to eating and sleeping, the break between each dish and the conversation is the time to talk, so the meal time of French cuisine is so long; but after keeping pace with the times, such constraints are already in vain, and the real emphasis is on demeanor.

For example, if you look closely, you will find that there is no sound between Lanli's knife and fork and the porcelain plate, and everything is just right.

"Ah?" Alfonso was sorting out his thoughts, thinking about how to speak and how to get to the topic. He was caught off guard and had no intention of understanding the Lanli issue.

Lan Li smiled in her eyes, "I mean, after Friday night, I didn't catch a cold or otherwise had any health discomfort?"

"No, I'm fine." Alfonso waved his hands repeatedly, his expression a little embarrassed, and repeated again, "I'm fine! Sorry, I mean, thank you. Until now, I haven't officially expressed my gratitude to you."

Lanley swallowed the food slowly, then smiled and sent a friendly signal, "Why don't you talk about the film project being prepared? I'm ready and listened carefully."

After only two short meetings, it can be seen that Alfonso is not a social type. So Renli simply abandoned all greetings and courtesy and directly entered the topic.

Hearing Lan Li say this, you can clearly feel that Alfonso breathed a sigh of relief. The burden on his shoulder seemed to be instantly removed, and his eyes and expression showed excitement, "That's right, I'm preparing for a project. To be precise, I have been preparing for five years, and all technical problems have been solved.

Ideally, we need to go into space to complete the entire work. If we have the opportunity to do so, the picture I hope to capture is the level our movie can achieve. So, over the years, we have been trying to solve the problem of weightless shooting, as well as issues such as lighting, reflection, perspective and astronomical phenomena.

Nowadays, traditional technologies are all green screens and wires, which finally assist in the later computer special effects to simulate the situation in space. However, the biggest disadvantage of this method is that it is not real enough. The weightless effects are too cheap and too fake, and the light simulated by the computer special effects is also far from the actual situation.

We visited Nasa, we simulated live events, we interviewed astronauts, we formed the entire visual effects team, and in five years, we tried to be able to capture real space scenes.

Now, we have solved most technical problems and some specific execution effects, which are all small problems, but the premise is that we need actors to truly integrate into it and test whether our ideas can be formed and whether the effects presented can be recognized by Nasa. So..."

There are endless talks, and there are endless talks in the true meaning. A large number of special words fill the entire conversation, which are professional and profound, complicated and complex.

For laymen, they probably were confused, just like a liberal arts student sitting among a bunch of physics doctors, no different from the heavenly books; for Lan Li, they would not be unable to understand. Physics, chemistry and biology are also knowledge categories that they usually learn, but he can understand it, but it does not mean that he can participate in the discussion and just understand it. This is extremely rare.

A brief summary: It is difficult enough to simulate the weightless effect of shooting, just weightlessness, and the influence of light, changes in the position of the celestial body, and the relationship between the actor and outer space. This is even more difficult. Relying solely on computer special effects, it is exciting but not real enough.

In the history of film, among countless space works, only two of them can be called classic weightless effects.

One is "21 Space Odyssey". In 196, Stanley Kubrick came up with a brilliant way to fix a camera in a circular room, and then let the actor run. The camera recorded the image, like an actor running along the roof.

This method, which was born in the 1960s, is impressed by Stanley's imagination. Unfortunately, the problems it solves are very limited, and can only express a few shots, and it cannot solve the weightless effect of other objects except humans.

One is "Apollo 13", directed by Lang Howard in 1995 and starring Tom Hanks. Their solution is simple and clear, and they pay directly to complete the shooting in Nasa's training device "Vomit Comet", which can completely simulate weightlessness effects.

So, Lang played 612 weightless flights in luxury, and shot nearly four hours of continuous shots here. There is no doubt that this method completely solved the problem, but it could not take the weightless shots outside the cabin, and the price was too expensive.

In addition to these two works, most of the other works in outer space use the combination of Wia and computer special effects to interpret the imaginary weightless effect.

Undoubtedly, in the 21st century, computer special effects are very realistic and wonderful; but the real effects of light, reflection and celestial movements are greatly reduced. In the final analysis, it is still impossible to truly present the environment and effects of outer space.

The content of all Alfonso's words just now is: they spent five years solving the problem of weightless shooting in outer space.

If this is true, then this will be a further technological breakthrough in the film industry, which is completely comparable to motion capture technology and 3D effects. Robert Zemikis spent ten years studying motion capture technology, while Alfonso Caron spent five years studying weightless shooting. The world of technical otaku is full of countless mysteries.

Perhaps, for the specific situation, you can refer to the TV series "Big Bang Them".

"...Wait, I'm stupid again just now, right?" Alfonso closed his eyes tightly, and couldn't help but hold his forehead up in annoyance. At this moment, he finally realized his mistake:

Those long-form discussions just now were not only too professional, but also had no focus or core. Even the topic was not even the subject, and he did not mention the name and content of the work. He talked about a lot of technical problems without thinking.

Lan Li didn't mind at all and chuckled, "To sum up, this is a project that has been planned for five years. Before the filming officially started, the crew team had already spent countless efforts to solve technical problems. Now, everyone is ready and can start to invest in the filming. Is that true?"

Just like James Cameron's "Avatar".

Alfonso raised his head slightly, and his palms supporting his head still kept the appearance of chicken feet. He looked at Lan Li in surprise, with an incredible look in his eyes, which made Lan Li lightly look at her head, "It seems that my understanding is not wrong. So, for the project itself, such as scripts, or performances, is there anything worth introducing? Because for the moment, this project looks limited to the actors."

"Of course! Of course!" Alfonso said anxiously, "The story tells the story of a group of astronauts walking in a US space station, detecting the space station; but suddenly, an abandoned satellite was destroyed, and the debris spread out in the earth's orbit at the speed of a super bullet, and accidentally hit other satellites, causing a chain reaction. The protagonist and his group also suffered a devastating blow, and in the end there were only two astronauts, trying to survive in space. Well, that's all."

"Georgetic Gravity", as expected, the famous "Georgetic Gravity" that Alfonso found Lan Li.

This is not surprising. In 26 years, after the filming of "Son of Humanity", Alfonso focused all his energy on the shooting of "gravity". After completing this work, the 21 friends who were reborn from Renli also scored 7:8. In terms of reputation, it completely ignited the enthusiasm of all professionals and professional audiences and was highly sought after.

Then, he strongly captured 270 million US dollars in North America, and the global box office was as high as 720 million US dollars.

A real victory. This work was hailed as the work that reached the most perfect balance between business and art after "Avatar". At the subsequent Oscars, "Georgetic" won the heavyweight Best Director Award, and there were six technical trophies, a total of seven Little Golden Man, becoming the biggest winner of the night.

However, no one really realized the excellence of this work in terms of reputation or box office: technological innovation. A number of technical controls, including James Cameron, George Lucas, and Christopher Nolan, praised Alfonso Caron's exploration and change, and laid the strong reputation among industry insiders.

With this "gravity" alone, Alfonso has returned with a full load. To some extent, among the three Mexican masters, his reputation in the industry is the best, even better than Arisandro Gonzalez Inaritu, who won two consecutive championships in Best Director.

But, even though he knew it was "gravity", why did Renli remain indifferent last night?

Because in the last life, the protagonist of "gravity" was Sandra Brock, gender, female.
