Beijing Film Academy is preparing to produce the science fiction movie "Iron-Blooded Sky", and artificial intelligence promotes the upgrade of image forms

Currently, generative artificial intelligence (AIGC) is widely used in film creation, making film scenes more artistic, realistic and even hyper-real. The recently completed AI movie “Cosmic Ranch” will be released during the Beijing International Film Festival.

As a leading institution in domestic film education, Beijing Film Academy has been at the forefront of the integration of film art and technology in the fields of AIGC, 8K3D ultra-high definition, interactive films, XR immersive films, virtual characters, and virtual production for many years. In the wave of artificial intelligence, Beijing Film Academy actively explores the combination of new technologies and film art, provides students with rich learning resources and practice platforms, and cultivates batches of film talents with innovative thinking and practical abilities. Among them, “The Foolish Old Man Moves the Mountains” being created by the school is the world’s first large-scale AI full-process animated film. It is provided with technical support by the Digital Film and Television Animation Creation Engineering Center of the Ministry of Education of the Beijing Film Academy. Interactive Pictures Co., Ltd. and the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee of Jiyuan City, Henan Province have joined forces. Filming. The film builds a platform for the interaction, integration, and symbiosis of traditional Chinese cultural spirit and contemporary high-tech audio-visual imaging technology. It uses animation, an art form that is popular with the public, to show the world the charm of Chinese culture and the power of the spirit of the times.

With the support of intelligent technology, the film breaks through technical barriers and integrates two-dimensional animation, three-dimensional animation, artificial intelligence creation (AIGC), real-person shooting, computer CG, XR and other high-precision technical means, while improving the audio-visual effects. , saving production costs, improving production efficiency, and changing the industry standards and processes for the production, sales and dissemination of traditional animated films. In addition, based on digital imaging technology to realize the creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation under the perspective of contemporary culture, the school once again launched the 8K Chinese-style digital animation short film “Door God” that incorporates the traditional Chinese folk art “Door God Painting”. The film is directed by Sun Lijun, Vice President of Beijing Film Academy. It adheres to the Chinese and national concepts of animated short film creation, is based on strong oriental aesthetics and traditional philosophy, and has a lively, interesting and spiritual story as its core, with the help of cutting-edge technology. The film gives cultural elements a modern and international expression, and develops the “Chinese Animation School” through inheritance and innovation.

The 8K ink animation short film “The Beginning of Autumn” is also a masterpiece that combines tradition and modernity, technology and art. The film uses the most cutting-edge 8K3D technology to replicate the “part-time writing” technique of traditional Chinese painting. The film can not only demonstrate the superb skills of meticulous line drawing, but also take advantage of the freehand blank space of traditional Chinese painting. It also innovatively applied the circular composition of Chinese paintings to the film, innovatively combining traditional Chinese art forms with modern 8K ultra-high-definition technology, bringing a visual and spiritual feast to the audience.

“Iron Sky”, which is being prepared by the Beijing Film Academy, is a science fiction film that explores the relationship between artificial intelligence and the future of mankind. The film is directed by Fan Beilu, and is created with the help of artificial intelligence tools involved in the entire production process. The film depicts a future world in the interstellar era that is managed by artificial intelligence “intelligence sources”. The film uses the adventures of three teenagers to explore the reasons behind the repeated surprise wars launched by “Wisdom”, and shows the situation that humans will face after artificial intelligence launches a war against humans.

In future film creation, the Beijing Film Academy will aim at international film awards, strive to show the charm and strength of Chinese films on the international stage, and actively develop an intelligent software supported by artificial intelligence to be more complementary and closer to filmmakers in the new era. A new frontier for collaborative filmmaking.
