GAME FILMS

摘要

There's a new phenomenon emerging in the high-stakes world of big-budget filmmaking. If you could sneak your way onto the closely guarded set of Spider-Man 3 or the upcoming big-screen version of Iron Man, you'd be surprised to find the film crews working alongside a group of people whom you would have never seen a few years ago. They're video game artists, taking photographs, recording the proportions and textures of sets, and working closely with production designers and the visual effects team to make sure their game upholds the same production values as the film. They've become an almost permanent fixture on the moviemaking scene. The reason is because in this era of cross-platform marketing and convergent technology major film properties live twice-in the movie theater and in the interactive realm.
