Even though the rendered scenes in games can be good, they are still game graphics. But when this tree popped up, Rhea Donna had an instant thought, this is the result of game rendering? This is too unbelievable! To a layman, it’s just a spectacle, but to a professional, it’s a craft. As a film distributor, Rhea Donna has seen at least a few thousand films.

She has seen various types of movies, but a tree like this can only be so realistic either by directly shooting it with a camera or DV in reality. But now, this effect hardly seems like it was rendered by a game engine.

As parts of this big tree appeared on the screen, the frames started to zoom out. Quickly, a panoramic view of a huge tree appeared on the screen. Then the frames swiftly moved upwards, a panoramic view appeared on the screen. Suddenly, an earsplitting, protracted howl rang out, followed by a long divine dragon appearing in the frame.

The enormous dragon’s claw appeared directly on the screen, the green scales, coupled with the sturdy and sharp claws. Just by looking at the dragon’s claws, one could tell that this dragon is no doubt a representation of formidable power! As the frame ascended, this beast flew straight across the screen, its front wasn’t seen, but you could tell how powerful this beast was just by looking at its silhouette.

Looking at this scene, Rhea Donna’s mouth hung open in surprise. She was completely flabbergasted. Were these scenes really from a game video? Forget about game video, even the scene quality from some mainstream films can’t match these! Especially the rendering of some small details! It was perplexing. Damian Bryan, who was sitting on the other side of Finn Lewis, was also in shock.

Though Damian Bryan never said it, from start to end Damian Bryan didn’t have a vastly different opinion about WY company’s game video from Rhea Donna’s. That’s because, in Damian Bryan’s view, a game video is just that no matter how rich its content is. At most, you can elevate the graphics to the level of the Final Fantasy series, but even if you do that, it’s still incomparable to film footage.

But at this moment, Damian Bryan realized how big an error he has committed! Final Fantasy? Forget about it! Although Final Fantasy is indeed a big-budget CG film, the video in front of him isn’t on the same level.

That itself can be thrown into the trash. The storyline that followed completely confirmed Damian Bryan’s thoughts. Must say, the makers of this video, perhaps due to exposure to so many films from Floral Village, have borrowed some storylines from those films for their script. But they have merely borrowed it, which is not an issue.

The whole storyline seemed easy to understand for people like Damian Bryan and Rhea Donna. Also, since the translation was done by Olivia Thatcher, there weren’t any problems with that either.

As the scenes and plots progressed, although some transitions were a bit rigid due to the inherent limitations of in-game perspectives in the early versions, there weren’t any significant issues after Olivia Thatcher made adjustments.

When the video was nearing its end, Damian Bryan and Rhea Donna had completely recovered from their initial shock. This video could no longer be just described as a game video. Moreover, if such grand scenes in the film had to be produced using VFX, even obtaining the quality that they had now would cost hundreds of millions in production costs in Federal coins!

This was because the VFX and scenes in the film were nothing like they were shot on Earth.

If they had to be shot in the conventional way, even if they did not cost as much as Avatar, the price difference wouldn’t be far off. But now, was this incredibly a game video? A video made by an ordinary gamer using the game? If game videos could reach such quality, then what is the use of those VFX companies from Floral Village?

Can’t blame Damian Bryan and Rhea Donna for their astonishment, because what this video depicted was truly astonishing, especially considering the fact that it was made by an ordinary gamer. This extremely low entry requirement could blow up all the film production companies in the world. More importantly, the quality of the production!

Not only was the entry requirement low, but it could also create such high-quality scenes. This could completely upturn the world view of all film producers globally! Can you imagine this situation? Every year, countless sci-fi and fantasy movies with terrible visual effects are screened in Floral Village. Even these films cost at least several millions to make.

But now, how much does it cost to make this film? Damn, the game charge is six cents per hour? Damian Bryan was not feeling good at all.

“Mr. Lewis, I remember that there should be many excellent videos in your video competition, right? Is this the first place? I wonder if I can watch the other two in the top three?” Rhea Donna quickly turned her head and asked Finn Lewis.

Damian Bryan was no longer worried about Rhea Donna’s attitude now. The reason why Rhea had issues previously was due to her prejudice against game videos, but after seeing the quality of this video, Damian Bryan believed in Rhea Donna’s professional integrity.

“Of course.” Finn Lewis nodded and spoke with a smile. He quickly directed Jim Lewis to play the second and third place videos. The second and third place videos are not very long; one is over fifty minutes, and the other is over an hour. After watching these two videos, Rhea Donna nodded and asked in surprise looking at Finn Lewis, “Mr. Lewis, are you sure that the makers of these videos are amateur gamers?”

“Of course, as we stated up front for the video contest, professionals are not allowed to participate, as it was meant to benefit regular players. By professionals, we mean those who are in the field of film and video production. However, some of the participants were video production and filmmaking students, which doesn’t violate our rules.” Finn Lewis explained with a smile.
