Culture Conquers Foreign Worlds

　　 In the morning, after eating the breakfast Shirley prepared, Harvey went out to visit the special effects artist of the Brenda Theatre Company, Kenneth Randolph, the median spellcaster who is good at illusion. The Brenda Theatre Company is a well-known theatre company touring the country. It will only stay in each city for a few months and hold a drama performance every half a month. Drama can be regarded as a high-quality spiritual pastime in this era of lack of entertainment. Way, so every performance is basically packed.

Although Harvey has become a hot character in Elroy, few people can recognize him on the street. Most people who have watched "The Earl of Monte Cristo" probably only know that the author’s name is Harvey Ai. Derian.

　　 When he came to Kenneth’s prop shop, Harvey explained his intentions. First, he hoped to buy a few more magic crystals, and secondly, he asked about other functions of magic crystals.

　　 The prop room of the Brenda Theatre Company was packed with all kinds of tools needed for the theatre company’s performances, including some scene props, wigs and theatre costumes. The whole room was crowded and dark.

Kenneth squeezed his illusion crystal in the room. After hearing Harvey’s intentions, he wondered why Harvey asked such a question. He stopped his research for a while and said, “Mr. Adrian, I do have it in my hand. There are a few spare illusion crystals that can be sold to you at an appropriate price. Your other question is whether the illusion crystal can store flat images. This question is certain, but flat images have no three-dimensional effect and no visual effects. Can be used in a small number of areas, what do you want to use those illusion crystals for?"

After listening to Kenneth's words, Harvey smiled and explained with a sigh of relief: "I have made an interesting tool. After studying the illusion crystal, I have always had a question in my heart, that is, can I store an image in the form of a flat image." The existence of illusion crystals with similar functions saved his research effort.

Kenneth seemed to understand Harvey’s plan a little funny and said: "Mr. Adrian, you need to know that the recorded flat image is not dynamic. The effect of a flat image is far inferior to seeing or projecting. I have also used it. The illusion crystal that stores the plane image records a scene. Unfortunately, both the static effect and the dynamic level are far inferior to projection."

　　 "Can't still images be made into a coherent picture?"

　　Kenneth took it for granted: "Of course, how can static flat images be coherent."

Harvey thought it would be a little clear. The method of illusion crystal recording and projection has always been coherent. There is no such thing as the number of frames. Therefore, the plane image is just a static picture in the eyes of the illusionist, and there is no coherence. The saying that forms a dynamic image. It's not that no one has ever discovered this, but because the function of the illusion crystal projection makes most spellcasters think that the projection function is the mainstream, and the recording of flat images can only be used in some information recording fields.

　　 Seeing too far and ignoring the current situation, the position of the movie in this world is quite embarrassing.

　　 Harvey said dumbly: "Mr. Randolph, do you know the phantom disc?"

Kenneth stroked his beard, his old face revealed obvious doubts. He had studied illusion for so many years, and he hadn’t heard what illusion disk was. The name must have something to do with illusion. He shook his head and replied, “I’ve never heard of it. Over this name."

　　 Magic disk has nothing to do with illusion. It is the name of a simple and interesting device on the earth. It can make the wrong visual effects. It is known as the earliest film principle display.

　　 Harvey smiled mysteriously: "Then I can make one for you now, can I use the props here?"

　　 "Yes."

　　 Harvey found a wooden circular board representing the sun from the set props, and painted a bird and a birdcage on the front and back of the circular board. Harvey showed Kenneth the phantom disc he had made. He looked at the different patterns on two sides and was still puzzled: "Mr. Adrian, this is a phantom disc? What is the mystery?"

"Not at the moment. This side is simply a bird painted, and this side is a birdcage." Harvey chanted the [Tiny Miracle] spell, and the circular board in his hand was immediately suspended, his right hand pressed against the edge of the circular board and pushed hard. The next flip, the entire circular plate quickly rotates.

　　 In the circular plate seen by Kenneth with naked eyes, the patterns of the bird and the birdcage overlap each other to form the pattern of the bird trapped in the birdcage.

"This is the magic disc, as you can see why two unrelated patterns are combined. The reason is simple, even if the pattern is static, when it flashes at a certain speed, our eyes will recognize it as dynamic. "

　　 "It looks like this, but what does it have to do with flat images?" Kenneth frowned and still couldn't understand Harvey's vague explanation.

　　 Harvey was a little helpless: "So, can you give me a book?"

Harvey did what he used to do in textbooks when he was a child. He painted a stickman in the lower right corner of the book page. Then he showed the book to Kenneth and explained carefully: "Mr. Kenneth, you see Are these patterns static."

"indeed so."

　　 Harvey twisted part of the book pages, and when they gradually loosened them, the stick figures drawn on different pages quickly ran, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com formed a coherent movement.

　　 Seeing this scene, Kenneth finally said in surprise and surprise: "So, I understand a little bit. It seems to be a feasible method."

　　The magic disc and the stickman running that Harvey just showed are the basic principles of filmmaking. Movies are said to be the most beautiful mistakes in people's eyes. It is precisely because of visual errors that people can see the works presented in the form of movies. There are still many controversies about the basic principles of movies, and there are two most common concepts.

　　 The first is the phenomenon of quasi-movement. People see a coherent picture that flashes quickly. Objectively speaking, the picture is not enough to form a coherence, but the human head automatically fills in what is lacking in it.

The second is visual residue, that is, the human eye sees the image for a very short time, about a twenty-fourth of a second. According to this principle, most movies are twenty-four frames, that is, within one second. Twenty-four frames appear to form a coherent image.

　　 Kenneth was surprised by Harvey's strange idea, and didn't seem to have any other opinions about it. In this world where projection technology exists, movies that have not produced actual results are empty talk after all. Before they really see it, everyone will probably think that it is better to get some projection reality.

　　 After all, the popular drama in this world can only show the most shocking and complete effect by means of projection.

Noting Kenneth’s disapproval attitude, after explaining the principle, Harvey did not intend to continue to emphasize the role of this thing. He bought several illusion crystals from Kenneth, one of which was an illusion crystal with a recording plane image. Its function For the caster, it is used to record important picture information like a camera. It was a tool used by Kenneth to collect horse information. Now this magic crystal also stores a large number of plane images of horses.
