Implementing the localization and subdivision of sci-fi from the world view and showing the level of film industry

"The world in our movies is a world that happened about fifty or sixty years later." In the opening sentence, the director points out The Wandering Earth’s world outlook structure. Apart from the basic settings of the original work, the world in the film The Wandering Earth is not far away from the present, and both technology and life in the film are as close to the present as possible, which makes people feel realistic. Even some unprecedented scenes, including dungeons, frozen ground and engines, are closer to real life, which makes people feel more empathetic and agree with this story.
Starting engine
In order to better complete the special effects part, the film The Wandering Earth divides the special effects scene into several sections, namely, the underground city section, the surface section, the engine section and the space section, and adopts different design treatments for each section. Try to restore real life in the underground part, almost the same as it is now. In the surface part, because most of the surface is frozen, most of the place names adopt real place names, and at the same time, the current urban buildings are used to create emotional connection with everyone. In the space scene, it is different from other parts, trying to show the future science and technology part, so that the space scene can provide the texture of science fiction films in common sense and improve the temperament of science fiction films. This division is conducive to the standardization of special effects production, and the same modular management is the embodiment of the film industry level.
China’s sci-fi movies are in their infancy, and they are constantly trying to hand over satisfactory answers.
Space station full power on
Many scenes and wonders in the movie The Wandering Earth, such as the engine and the earth passing through Jupiter, are almost hard to see in real life, so the presentation of these scenes requires the special effects team and the art team to keep trying and improving according to scientific laws, until they are finally completed. In the interview, director Frant Gwo also mentioned: "There are many special effects shots that have been revised more than 100 times, and one shot has even been revised 249 times before it is finally completed, and the difference is 250." Although the director’s answers in the interview were relaxed and humorous, the number of revisions actually reflected the hard work of the special effects team. It is precisely because of these hard processes that the special effects team can hand over The Wandering Earth’s satisfactory answer sheet to the audience.
"I hope you can see that a babbling child is growing up slowly." This is what director Frant Gwo mentioned at the end of the visual effects special. Just like China’s sci-fi movies, the visual effects feature shows The Wandering Earth’s groping in the production process, and it is a process in which a child in a cradle grows up from scratch. The road of science fiction movies in China has just begun, and The Wandering Earth is just the starting point. We will make progress and grow together, expecting more and better works in China’s science fiction movies.
The film The Wandering Earth was originally written by Liu Cixin, directed by Frant Gwo, and specially starred by Jason Wu, starring Qu Chuxiao, Li Guangjie, Ng Man Tat and Angel, and starring Mike Sui, Qu Jingjing, Zhang Yichi, Yang Haoyu, Li Hongchen, Yang Yi, Jiang Zhigang and Zhang Huan. The film is currently being shown nationwide.
