Superstars of Tomorrow

January 6th is the day when the major e-sports clubs use their sense of presence to occupy the hot spots.

Even well-known entertainment companies in Yanzhou will avoid this day for their New Year's Eve blockbuster press conferences or promotional activities. At this time in the past, Silver Wing could only watch from the sidelines and stare blankly, even if his eyes were hot, there was nothing he could do about it, but this year, the entire Silver Wing game department was immersed in an ecstatic excitement.

With the reform of the Silver Wing game department, Wayne realized his ambitions. All the promotional channels had already been arranged, and the promotional activities had not started before, because he was worried that something unexpected would happen before it was really confirmed. After all, this was the first time he had encountered such a Things, even if the rankings on the Internet can enter the top ten, but what if? What if the Flamingo only needs to be in the top five this year? Isn't that just an empty joy?

It wasn't until he got the invitation letter with the bright red flamingo logo in his hand that Wayne's uneasy mood finally stabilized. What followed was that he had never been in the Silver Wing game department for decades. There was excitement.

With trembling fingers due to being too excited, he pressed a button to send out the edited information.

"It's time to start!"

Today's entertainment hit, their "Silver Light" will definitely occupy the most important part!

The fact that the five big clubs received the invitation letter is not news at all. In the public's impression, if they did not receive the invitation, it would be considered news. For this reason, the "Silver Wing 50 Aurora", which has just been established this year and entered the top ten in the continent, is the so-called "Silver Light" team that has attracted much attention today.

The teams that squeezed into the top ten have already gone through several waves of publicity, and the public has long lost their sense of novelty, but Yinguang is different. They only released the team's first promotional video today.

Everyone knows that a promotional video is an opportunity to introduce themselves in front of the public and give the public a deep impression they want. However, before that, the Yinguang team had released too little, and the public's impression of them was only It is limited to those members who showed up at the press conference, as well as the list data.

At 12:00 noon, Silver Wing's live broadcast platform, official website, various online video channels, and large screens in the central squares of more than a dozen key cities, a three-minute promotional video was released online and offline simultaneously.

In the new century, this type of promotional video cannot be long, as the public will lose patience if it is too long, but it is too short to express all the things one wants, so 2 or 3 minutes is the most commonly used length of promotional video .

When the wing logo of the Silver Wing and the tree logo of the Silver Light team appeared at the same time, many people who were in a hurry stopped and looked at the big screen on the square.

At the beginning of the screen, there is the default short-lived system electronic sound when "Battle of the Century" lands, and some familiar screens with heavy world-ending emotions hit continuously.

The shrill shouts, the beating of blunt objects, the loud gunshots, the roar of buildings that exploded and collapsed one after another, etc. Under the effect of the sound, there is a buzzing buzzing like an electric current , Gradually climbed upwards, driving the atmosphere.

The sound effect of the scene smashing and exploding is quickly taken over by the crescendo of electronic music, and the simple melody is repeated. The picture with a strong style of the century leaves the screen, and a wider field of vision appears.

In the video, it is an office building on a certain floor, and everyone in it is looking at the images of "Battle of the Century" projected on the big screen in front of them. In their expectant eyes, it seems that a certain seed in their hearts has germinated.

In the video, a chubby middle-aged man who was watching the screen of "Battle of the Century" stood in the middle, turned around, and strode out the door. Every step seemed to be on the beat of the drums. The rhythm of the music was exactly the same as the rhythm of the characters' movements!

Following his movements, the picture continued to pull back, and when he walked out the door, behind him, there was a "game department" hanging on the wall.

The audience who saw this scene knew in their hearts, oh, so this is the legendary Silver Wing Game Department.

The ear is not so soft, some stylized electronic timbre, with a sense of supernatural power, ups and downs, the extremely fine changes, rich timbre changes, wide pitch, flexible intensity changes, layer upon layer Advanced electronic sound effects, gorgeous and compact.

Under the connection of rhythmic music, the quick editing shots are not so boring.

In the video, a fat middle-aged man went out to the elevator. Just at this time, the elevator descending from the top stopped on this floor. The elevator door opened, and there was a young man inside. All with a little seriousness.

Those who follow the Yinguang team are familiar with these two. Isn't this the manager of the Silver Wing game department, Wayne, and the ridiculously young manager of the virtual department, Fang Zhao?

On the screen, inside the descending elevator, the number displayed jumps from "51" to "50", the elevator door opens, and the "virtual department" on the 50th floor of the Silver Wing appears in front of you.

The two stepped into the virtual department, behind them, on the closed door, the team logo, a simplified tree diagram, close-up.

The screen darkened, and a line of words appeared on the screen——

"Something, it's getting out of control..."

As the picture changes from bright to dark, and then from dark to bright again, the music behind the picture, after a brief pause, does not have a long period of sensational melody, which is different from Fang Zhao's previous works. Under the electronic sound effects, the melody is cold , Simple but heavy, the rhythm is exciting and powerful.

The subtitles disappeared, and in the dark background, someone opened a door.

The light outside the door is in sharp contrast with the large dark background, cold and warm, darkness and light, creating a sense of prophecy and ceremony.

And the person who opened the door stood at the only place where the light existed in the vast darkness, with his back to the screen, just standing there, but it gave people an illusion, as if a rigid, sharp, sharp, And the silent knife.

The screen changes again.

"Having waited so long..."

After the subtitles, in the screen, a person who was training for muscle strength raised his head, looked straight at him with resolute eyes, and beads of sweat rolled down his face.

As soon as they see this person on the screen, veteran game fans will be able to identify themselves.

Qin Jiulou, the former 2S captain who has been silent for eight years.

Eight years is long enough.

After Qin Jiulou, Tong Yang is doing physical training;

Reaction speed training Moli;

Meters for balance training, etc.;

August, Yu Zhongqing, Jaco, Sosager, Ziz, Fertaha, Nibali, Maimon, Oss...

Every team member appeared one after another, or ran, or jumped, or practiced with others. In the camera, the lines of the muscles are stretched, the tendons protrude, and the sweat is poured out...

In line with the action rhythm of the screen, the gradual sense of rhythm is getting stronger and stronger, and the rhythm of the heartbeat is gradually getting faster and faster. It is difficult to tell whether it is the soundtrack behind the screen or the sound that comes with the screen itself.

Screen transitions.

"We can't wait."

With the appearance of subtitles and the intervention of new electronic timbres, the rhythm is gradually enhanced, and the atmosphere is getting more and more fierce.

In the video, a data analyst in overalls is talking to the screen; a person in a plain white coat with a simple leaf pattern on the upper arm of the sleeve and an aurora icon on the chest is checking the players. There are also some people who follow the team members, serving tea and water, handing clothes and towels, coming and going in a hurry, but in an orderly manner.

Engineers who check the operation of game mechanics, analysts who look at the complex graphs and data on the light screen...

This is the first time that the silver light team's assistant team, medical team and all the teams behind the scenes have collectively appeared!

With the momentum of the music gradually climbing, the engineers made "ok" gestures, the leader of the medical team nodded, the assistants put on "combat uniforms", and the dressed team members walked quickly to a room.

The door with the tree-shaped logo opened, and a row of upgraded models of the ninth generation of Flamingos arranged in a semi-circular arc almost occupied the entire screen!

Under the light, the outer shell of the machine reflected a terrifying luster, and the flamingo logo on the machine seemed to be on fire in the next moment!

The team members who entered the room took their positions one by one, the game hatches closed one after another, and the camera zoomed back. At some point, a white humanoid machine was already standing in front.

Tenth generation machine!

Many people who saw this scene widened their eyes. Does Silver Wing have a second tenth-generation aircraft? Or is the original one taken out for others to use?

However, at this time, the audience could no longer think about it.

In the music that encroached on the ears, the onslaught of drums and noises continued to advance, as if foreshadowing that an uncontrollable madness was about to usher in!

The person wearing the tenth generation machine raised one hand and waved it down again. It's like sending an order.

Almost at the same time, the "operation" buttons of all the ninth-generation machines lighted up at the same time.

In the picture, the electric current seems to pass through the neurons, matter and space, everything seems to be digitized, and the language symbols belonging to the program are running in the virtual world.

The picture was getting darker, but the rushing music suddenly stopped at this moment.

The silent silence carries a wonderful emotional tension, and the air seems stale.

Boom!

The shattering sound of glass objects under a strong impact hits the heart!

The violence after the silence, the impact on the auditory nerves has been strengthened by ten times!

Everything exploded completely.

The people who broke into the building from the outside window were armed with firearms, well-trained and cooperated tacitly, like a sudden descending magic soldier.

The gun flashes in quick close-up, and from the perspective of the gunman, the camera zooms in on a diseased, completely abnormal, hideous face.

boom!

Right between the eyebrows.

bang bang bang!

Bloody bullet marks on the walls, broken glass, fallen corpses, swaying chandeliers, messy corridors...

The sound is perfectly integrated into the music, and under the special sound effect, it is extremely penetrating, as if it wants to penetrate into the listener's nerves.

"Nothing can stop us."

The picture changes quickly, from indoor to outdoor, from urban to suburban.

The flames sprayed by the bullets, the dripping blood, the flying severed limbs...

The sound of sharp blades tearing muscles, the sound of blunt instruments colliding with flesh, the howls of wailing and angry beasts, the movement of corpses falling to the ground...

The camera shows these bloody fights of life and death one by one through this violent scene. In the midst of overwhelming, heart-pounding action scenes, tell the audience what happened.

Gore, violence.

The combination of the two is always chilling. However, behind these images are strong and powerful fast-paced music and sound effects, which clearly explain the tone and atmosphere of the video from the beginning.

This is the background of the era of annihilation, and this is the battle for the survival of mankind!

Violent, bloody, but full of hope behind it!

The fast-paced editing speeds up the narrative progress of the violent scenes. The audience has no time to ponder those flashing images carefully, but they can feel those flashing scenes touching their nerves again and again.

The sound editing techniques of music audio and audio music perfectly match the rhythm of the scene rotation, and also make the audience more receptive to those violent and bloody images. Information.

In the context carefully woven by the music, and under the special shooting techniques, those violent and bloody shots appear exquisite, beautiful, and shockingly gorgeous! The impression given to the viewer is not so heavy, but instead has a strange appeal and shocking force.

This is a typical entertainment-style production method, and it is more in line with the aesthetics and preferences of the current fast food culture.

Changing scene In the end, the speeding truck rushed straight towards a huge beast, and the tractor bombs fired repeatedly under the dark sky drew dense light and hit the sealed fuel tank on the truck.

The flames of the explosion were accompanied by a deafening bang, and ended in a high-pitched music.

"We are, the kings of the battlefield!"

The ending screen is a picture of the main members of Silver Light in the game gathered together in combat uniforms, some of whom are wearing helmets, and some of them are not.

With the final stillness of the picture, the music also stopped.

In the lower right corner of the screen, the silver wing logo and the silver light tree logo appear again.

In the three-minute video, the first one-and-a-half minutes are about introducing the members of the team and the team, and the last one-and-a-half minutes are all clips of hot scenes in the game.

The soundtrack was produced by Fang Zhao. In terms of structure and arrangement, he followed his usual majestic style of music. This is his best technique. Even if he tried new elemental styles, he did not give up on this point. In order to better match the picture and the sound that comes with the picture, compared with the previous work, Fang Zhao reduced the melody of the soundtrack while creating it, but maintained a strong rhythm. This is a new attempt, in line with what Wien said was a more direct and powerful outburst, but it also bears some traces of academic refinement.

People who are not used to electronic timbres and sound effects will find it noisy and annoying, but for people who have long been accustomed to this kind of life noise in the new century, they can appreciate the noise aesthetics of this era and immerse themselves in the music-driven Unable to extricate themselves from emotional ups and downs.

In the last minute and a half of the video, there are intensive gun battles, hand-to-hand combat, bombing and other hot war scenes, and those shots of bullets bursting and blood splattering, because they are all real shots in the game, without post-processing modification and synthesis, they are very realistic. And appeal, combined with sound effects, has a strong sensory impact on the audience.

They didn’t sell misery and feelings, and didn’t emphasize too much how hard and hard the e-sports players are behind the game. It’s hypocritical to pretend too much.

This video is not the kind of inspirational style that other clubs always like, but creates a group of extraordinary, well-trained, brave and powerful "superman-style" heroes!

This is also the fastest way for Silver Wing to enter this market!

And the effect shown to the public also echoed Silver Wing's expectation.

online.

"My mother! These people from Yinguang are going to heaven? Is this an e-sports player? Is this the savior?"

"Pull a little."

"I thought I was watching a blockbuster!"

"Suddenly it feels so good to play games in Silver Wing!"

Qi'an City Center Square.

A middle-aged man in professional clothes and carrying a briefcase was staring at the big screen, looked away from the screen, looked around, and called to stop a young man who was closest to him.

"Excuse me, I want to ask, the trailer that was shown just now, which New Year's blockbuster movie is produced by Silver Wing? When will it be released?"

"Ah?" The young man who was asked was stunned for a while, and after recovering, he understood what the other party was referring to, and smiled, "What was played just now was not a trailer for a movie, but a promotional video for a game team."

"You mean, those people inside just now are actually e-sports players...playing games?" The middle-aged man looked disbelieving.

"Uh, that's right. Did you see the tree-shaped logo just now? That's the logo of the game team jointly formed by Silver Wing's game department and virtual department."

"...Now the game promotion is more exciting than the blockbuster movie trailer." The middle-aged man sighed. He doesn't play games, but he likes to watch movies. However, after watching the promotional video just now, he became a little interested in this team.

There are many people in the same situation as this middle-aged man. The first promotional video of the Yinguang team not only attracted the attention of game fans, but also attracted the attention of many people outside the game circle.

Reference music: "NeutralAssault" - ReallySlowMotion, "Uprising" - Hi-Finesse, these two capitals have been used by netizens as the soundtrack of Marvel movie clips.
