Chapter 762: Virtual Sense, Distance Sense, and Security Sense
Qin Jue went downstairs to the studio on the 27th floor. This floor was a place specially designated by Cheng Zheng for the little fox. There was a strong soundproof room specifically for voice training and a semi-automatic recording studio. "So I didn't wash my hair." "This song was recorded here, and Qin Jue also guest-starred as the recording mixer.
"Coming -"
An arm stretched out and waved. Qin Jue glanced down and saw his sister lying in a long and thin shape on the plush carpet, with an open sheet of music on her head.
"Want to come together? It's so comfortable~" the little fox greeted with a smile.
"OK."
Qin Jue stretched and walked over, pounced forward, "...hoo!"
She sank into the carpet, and the soft touch made her squint in comfort.
"What is this for?"
The two canines were lying together, head to head. Qin Jue's voice was lazily, and he leaned over to look at the tablet in the little fox's hand.
"Write a biography of a character." Qin Yuqiao said with a smile, "Didn't my sister say that the more detailed the setting, the more full and vivid the character can be."
At first glance, the tablet interface in her hand is somewhat similar to the inner page of the "Character Setting Collection" of anime works. The left half is the live2D avatar currently in use, that is, the full body picture of the gray-white short-haired young man, and the right half is Detailed information was marked at random, and it was even more than what Qin Jue saw last time.
Qin Jue took it and took a closer look, which was quite novel.
Although the little fox had learned how to write biographies from her, Qin Jue had a script in his hands after all, so he had no material to analyze, but the little fox was creating it out of thin air.
To put it in more straightforward terms, this is designing an OC (original character), truly starting from scratch.
It is not difficult to create an OC. Anyone can create a character for themselves on a whim, draw a sketch, and decide on age, gender, hair color, eye color, etc. However, judging from how serious Qin Yuqiao is, it seems that he wants to This character was created according to the standards of film and television works, and Qin was a little surprised.
"Is it for RP?" She searched for special terms in her mind.
RP is the abbreviation of role play, which means "role play". Many virtual anchors have a clear set of settings, such as "a singer from XX planet", "XXX-year-old elf", "cat ears born in a certain place" "Mother" and so on. In this way, combining with the two-dimensional image can make your own characteristics more distinctive and give the audience more memory points.
But after all, they are not professional actors who make a career out of acting, so most of the virtual anchors only regard role-playing as one of their characteristics. What they show more is actually their own temperament and outlook on life. This is why some people often say "leather bags" (The avatar) is just for fun. What really retains the audience is the interesting soul of the person (the host)."
"Well, it's just for role-playing." Qin Yuqiao nodded with a determined expression.
Qin Jue said "Huh?" Their little fox had a strong sense of belief when doing business. If she didn't have her own unique insights, she wouldn't be serious enough to do this.
"Tell me about it?" Qin Jue asked curiously.
As she said this, she still felt that just lying on her stomach was not enough, so she changed her position and started to support herself on the plank.
Qin Yuqiao smiled, and she knew her sister couldn't stay idle.
She moved over and saw that the difference in body shape between the two sisters was even more obvious after Qin Jue stood up. From a distance, it looked like a big Samoyed with a red fox squeezed next to it.
Qin Yuqiao tilted his head and thought for a while and said:
“While working as a virtual anchor, I discovered that ‘virtual sense’ is a very important thing.”
Then he asked: "Sister, why do you think so many people prefer paper people?"
Qin Jue pondered: "Youth will last forever and the house will not collapse?"
After she finished speaking, she felt that it was not rigorous, so she thought for a while and continued:
"Whether it is film, television, novels or animation games, fictional themes have more space to show people in the third dimension novelties and beauty that do not exist in reality. For everyone who is running around in life, the virtual world is both a safe haven and an escape. , can help them take a break from the busy and depressing reality and gain psychological comfort.”
Qin Yuqiao nodded.
"In comparison, real people have a lot of risks. There are too many uncertainties about human nature and human nature, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad."
Qin Jue said thinking of "Awkward", "Virtual characters are more pure in comparison. They rely on works and have clear settings, experiences and even endings. Everything is in black and white, and the images are full and independent. Even if the author who created them It’s hard for viewers and readers to be shaken by suddenly not being a good person and doing some OOC things.”
To put it bluntly, if a real person's house collapses, it is indeed his fault, but the fictional character itself does not exist in reality, and there is no way to avoid any real bad deeds.
No matter how ridiculous the author is in ruining the characters, the biggest problem is that fans who like the characters will not recognize them. The characters they love are innocent and can be separated from events. There is no conflict between liking the characters and criticizing the author.
"Well, that's right." Qin Yuqiao responded with a chuckle, "So I'm working hard to create such a 'virtual sense' now."
"But you are a virtual anchor. Strictly speaking, you have a two-dimensional image plus a three-dimensional personality. Let's call it 2.5 dimensions. This is still different from a purely two-dimensional fictional character." Qin Jue was slightly puzzled.
"Well...how to put it."
Qin Yuqiao switched the tablet to another page, which was full of academic papers on the development of the second dimension. There were many traces of underlining and annotations on the text, which showed that he had read it carefully.
"The early ACG culture was just like what my sister said just now, with 100% fictional characters. But with the development of technology and culture, many people love the second dimension characters, and often feel sad because of the "dimensional wall".
"After all, the lines, voices, actions, etc. of the characters are all designed by the creators, and behind them are the joint efforts of painters, voice actors and other staff. Some people may not mind, but some people will inevitably find it difficult to accept these behind-the-scenes things, and feel depressed and sad.
"So gradually, the concept of "pure second dimension" has changed. People want to meet more of their emotional needs and get more practical responses. They try to combine "fictional" with "real", so that they can have a strange and surreal visual experience and get richer and more flexible responses. Virtual anchors and virtual idols came into being."
Qin Yuqiao talked about the achievements and insights of these days.
"Fantasy is always the most beautiful. The sense of virtuality and mystery make people have endless reverie. When the audience looks at the virtual images of the anchors, they will have a feeling of 'holding the lute half-covered'.
"With the virtual image, the anchor himself does not need to consider appearance and other thresholds. Well, to put it more seriously, even if they are disabled, these physical defects can be well covered and tolerated, and will not be exposed to the public, so that they can have their own jobs and careers like other people."
"Virtual sense, sense of distance, sense of security." Qin Yuqiao said, "Whether it is for the audience or the anchor himself, it is like this."
