Setting the Standard for Virtual Production in China
Fangs of Fortuneis the third virtual production from iQIYI following the successes of My Journey to You and Fox Spirit Matchmaker: Red-Moon Pact,and continues pushing the boundaries of virtual production in Chinese television. The drama achieved remarkable success in precise HDR color management and virtual light matching,natural depth of field transitions,seamless blending of virtual and physical sets,realistic virtual sky and climate simulation system and 200+ FPS high-speed filming,leading the C-drama industry in terms of the amount of virtual production technology used,length of production cycle and scene count.
Unlike traditional filmmaking,virtual production technology greatly enhances efficiency and collaboration by creating virtual sets ahead of on-site filming. Since late 2020,iQIYI has led the way in applying and promoting virtual production technology,becoming one of China's first streaming platforms to complete the entire filming and broadcasting process for virtually produced series. To advance its virtual production capabilities,iQIYI has also built a "Digital Asset Library"and its proprietary AI-powered IQStage virtual production system,amassing numerous accolades,virtual production patents,and software copyrights.
Building on the creative partnership behind My Journey to You,the team behind Fangs of Fortune pioneered innovative solutions,including an electric revolving stage that ensures synchronized rotation between physical and virtual sets to significantly reduce conversion times.
iQIYI's virtual production capabilities have developed a full set of mature hardware selection standards and testing methods,all assembled in IQStage. This achieves a high degree of integration between software and hardware,setting the standard for virtual production quality and efficiency in China.
