Chapter 303 She is indeed strong

"Hehe..."

Chen Qiuwen smiled awkwardly at his boss who was glaring at him.

To be honest.

In terms of popularity among the player community.

Lin Yao is indeed high, very high.

Many stars can't compare to her, plus her advantages in appearance and height...

She is very suitable for motion capture.

The only problem may be her acting skills.

But it doesn't matter.

You can just use a face model...

If Lin Yao's face model can really be used, the attention of the game will explode.

Chen Qiuwen was also half joking and half serious.

But Lin Yao didn't want to.

He didn't force it, and he couldn't force it.

This is his boss.

Maybe in the end, he will be a face model...

If he is fired, he will not be a face model anymore, he may even become a young model...

"If you want a gimmick, you can find a celebrity, but you also have to consider their acceptance and acting skills."

Lin Yao thought for a while and said, "After all, motion capture is still a niche and different from ordinary acting. Most celebrities probably haven't been exposed to it. In addition, if the acting skills are not good, it means you have spent money to buy a relatively well-known face. In the end, if the acting skills are not up to standard, the art staff will have to retouch and add 10,000 bones to the face to adjust it to the ideal expression. It's better not to do it.

Finally, there is the budget. If it's too expensive, forget it... You should look at the budget."

"Yeah."

Chen Qiuwen nodded: "So it's best to find some young actors who are well-known and have good acting skills, right?"

"Well, if there are suitable people willing to participate and the price is reasonable, of course it's fine. If that doesn't work, you can find some stuntmen."

"Okay, then I'll look for it."

Chen Qiuwen touched his chin and began to think about suitable candidates.

"Also, don't just confirm it when you think it's suitable. It's better to let them test it and see if the actor agrees with the expected standards of the project."

"Ah? How to test this?"

Chen Qiuwen was a little confused.

Motion capture is indeed still a niche here.

It is even more niche when used in games.

Lin Yao thought about it and replied: "I'll write a specific process for you, and by the way, sort out the characteristics and personalities of several main characters in the game "The Witch". I'll go to the interview with you then."

"Okay... thank you for your help."

Chen Qiuwen was a little embarrassed.

It was agreed that Lin Yao would not be deeply involved.

But things did not go as planned.

Lin Yao is really... too amazing.

Many things are two different efficiencies with her and without her.

"After all, it's an important project, so thank you is not necessary, not to mention that I'm also very interested in motion capture."

Lin Yao shook her head.

Of course.

There is another purpose that Lin Yao didn't tell Chen Qiuwen.

She wants to finalize the entire motion capture production process. In her previous life, she had seen a standard process for motion capture in a Ubisoft 3A game, which was quite interesting.

If the standardization can be finalized.

The efficiency of game production will be greatly improved in the future, and she will be more relaxed.

...

Lin Yao left Chen Qiuwen and came to Guangzheng to ask about the situation of "Hero" as usual, then returned to her position and began to code the test process of motion capture actors. There

are basically two directions.

The first is to test the creativity and acting skills of the actors according to the script given by Linmu Studio. If they are good actors, they will generally perform secondary creation according to the guidance points, while ordinary actors will only perform step by step. Of course, this also depends on the specific situation. If the secondary creation is very random and increases the communication cost for no reason, then it is not as good as ordinary actors. It depends on the situation.

The other is the imitation skills.

Later, there are issues such as height ratio and weight. After all,

the closer the actor is to the virtual character, the more the performance meets expectations, and the less adjustments are needed in the later stage.

In general, the actor's acting skills must be good, echoing the personality of the virtual character in the game, and the height ratio is not much different.

Trevor is a vivid example.

Lin Yao had seen a funny description, saying that if a member of a robbery gang is an alcoholic, drug addict, loud-mouthed, hysterical, and always thinks that his poor self-control is a sign of being a real man, then it will definitely be bad, but if this person is called Trevor Phillips, then it's another story...

you can imagine... how deeply this character is rooted in people's hearts.

Lin Yao really hopes that the characters in her game can also be so deeply rooted in people's hearts.

So actors are very important.

Lin Yao coded out the standards for actor testing.

Choose to print.

Then she opened a new document and coded the process of motion capture for the game.

This is a bit more complicated.

There are many types of motion capture, and different types of motion capture do different things, but the overall process is similar.

She recalled a little and typed the first word.

The first thing is the preliminary preparation work. Considering the logic and switching of the actions, it is necessary to use the inertial motion capture equipment to quickly verify the logic, preview the action points disassembled by the program in advance, and then put them into the engine. Once the error is found, the logical error will be modified. At the same time, the video will be given to the actors as a physical reference when explaining the play on the spot, so that the actors can perform better.

At the same time, the program within the project is further developed based on these actions, and the on-site capture starts at the same time, and the art department performs artistic processing on the actions...

The motion capture must be standardized and unified. Except for special characters, a set of actions can be reused for all characters in the game...

Because the motion capture base cannot see the scenes in the game, auxiliary props need to be prepared before starting...

How to deal with the interaction of prop capture...

Lin Yao wrote while recalling, and then gradually she didn't need to recall it specifically.

She quickly tapped the keyboard.

Before the end of the morning, the entire process was coded out.

Lin Yao typed the last word, then rolled the pulley, read it carefully, and made sure there was nothing missing.

Then she also typed out this standard process.

Next.

Linmu Studio needs to use motion capture games, and the development process should follow this set.

There will definitely be efficiency improvements.

Lin Yao is confident about this.

But it's hard to say for the first time.

But it's normal to encounter problems for the first time, and Lin Yao is also mentally prepared.

It's okay to encounter problems, just solve them.

As long as they can be solved, they will learn from their mistakes next time, and they will definitely get smoother and smoother in the end.

Until... it becomes the so-called game production "assembly line".

"Take a quick look at it, and then mobilize the departments and assign work according to this process."

Lin Yao handed the freshly printed, still slightly hot, paper to Chen Qiuwen.

Chen Qiuwen was stunned for a moment, took it and looked at it for a while, then looked up at Lin Yao and sighed.

"What for?" Lin Yao asked in surprise.

"Boss... Linmu Studio can't lose you, and our project can't lose you, just like Jerusalem..."

"Stop, do your job."

Lin Yao glared at him, shook her ponytail, and left.

Chen Qiuwen smiled.

You see.

Not only is he capable, but he is also pleasing to the eye and can regulate psychological pressure...

He is indeed strong...
