Invisibleart Workshop Online

Invisible I set up an online studio named invisibleart, inspired by a book about Matte Painting, book’s name is “The Invisible Art: The Legends of Movie Matte Painting”. Because I’m particularly interested in Matte Painting, and because the book is so scarce that the price on Amazon is already selling at 1600RMB, I purchased a copy through ebay in May, hoping that I would receive the book properly in June. My main concern is the invisibleart, which is a film visual effects creation that allows you to see no traces of artificial processing in the work, as if directly shot with a camera directly to the original scene. To create these images in the digital world requires us to train our eyes to discern the real details in them. In a grand sense, every work of art by an artist is rooted in authenticity, as we know from painting, music, and the ancient people who first learned from nature imitation in their creations, the closer the characteristics of the artwork are to nature, the more we can feel the authenticity of the art. Based on this idea, I set up the website invisibleart.pro. The purpose of the website is to tell the latest film technology, including the interpretation of professional papers and articles, and the release of works, invisibleart.pro is different from blog.cineneural.com differs in that the former focuses on the details of the technical field, while the latter focuses mainly on a summary of my life and thinking. ...

Discussion of risk allocation

I recently read the blog post Risk Allocation Framework by Eric Xu, which also made me think about my own risk resistance , especially in the face of uncertain events that occur. In 2021, my main focus is on quantitative finance. Although the quantitative field sounds advanced to the layman, most commercial companies generally do not disclose algorithms that can be profitable directly in the market, and it still takes some coincidence and opportunity to profit from publicly available algorithms. In my opinion, no matter how many times your earnings, one thing you always have to consider is how to bear the risk, if you invest in a stock, the beginning is a lot of earnings, and finally because of market volatility factors lead to all your earnings to zero, and the cost also fell to 90%, this time how do you talk about profit. In the field of investment you can survive for how long, it shows how high your ability to resist risk, do not let yourself out easily, once out, you will never have the opportunity to enter the profit. ...

CG319x EIZO

Back in 2020 I wrote a blog post Renderman24 Will Support Blender,at the end of which I documented my intention to purchase a commercial version of Renderman. after more than a year, I realized my idea, configured myself with an image workstation, purchased a commercially copyrighted Renderman, and most importantly, I also purchased a set of EIZO CG319x monitors for myself. The initial reason for preparing all this was mainly because of the rise of web 3.0. I envisioned a one-person freelance career, because the film industry is created through a very large group of people, and it is very time-consuming for one person to complete a live-action film or an animated feature film, or even a short film, independently, because there are many technical as well as artistic stumbling blocks in front of you, and you have to overcome them little by little to complete every detail of the film. Then I thought about the possibility of using the machine’s algorithm to set up the characters’ environment, to generate life and environment in the computer’s world, which is called modeling and animation and scene production in conventional film production. Dare to imagine if the computer can complete these creative processes, such as animal jumping and running, model materials, keying, human walking, we are no longer through the drawing of key frames, debugging materials, manual green screen keying, but through the computer’s learning of the real world to actively explore these key frames, to achieve the simulation of real-world object materials, the precise keying of the characters in the picture, then it seems that a person It is no problem to create a wonderful movie. Of course, this is just an idea, and the technology is not yet so sci-fi. ...
