Starting from the ancient village, together with Douban Kui, explore new ways to play video.

Three months ago, Douban exclusively launched architect Wang Shu's new book "Building a House". A group of Douyou, who claimed to be a "temporary workers group", volunteered to go to Fuyangwen.

three months ago, architect Wang Shu's new book "Building a House", a group of Douyou who claimed to be a "temporary workers group" volunteered to go to Fuyang Wen Village to photograph Wang Shu's ongoing rural architecture experiment. One day of shooting over the weekend, plus several nights of editing, a three-minute video was released, "three minutes, see the Power of Architecture." There is no "overnight popularity of the Internet", nor "warm the world", this video released in the quiet Douban community, like an undercurrent, it does not care about the fierce splash, just hope that the source of water, will follow the unrest. (Douyou quarreled, "go to Fuyang Wen Village to see Wang Shu's rural architecture.") this time, under the repeated encouragement of Douban Kui, the temporary workers group set out again. This time, they are not going to shoot "New-style dwellings", but want to see what "old-school dwellings" looks like.

visit Xinye Ancient Village

starting from Shanghai and passing through Hangzhou, the direction is still Tonglu-Fuyang-Jiande, but the destination becomes Xinye Ancient Village.

this village used to be filmed for the second season of "where is Dad going?" but there are not many tourists at this time of winter.

Wencun video director Wu Wei was born in Anhui, a village in southern Anhui. He visited dozens of places when he was a student. "when I went there at that time, the tutor said that the villages in Zhejiang were greatly influenced by Hui-style residential buildings, and now I would like to have a look."

first impression, unlike Wen Village, which was divided into two because of the renovation project, Xinye Ancient Village as a whole is quite well preserved. Although not all buildings are ancient buildings, it can be seen that most of them are some years old.

Our collection of white sparkly prom dress are bound to dazzle and bewitch you. We have it all – a perfect choice for the most formal and casually informal occasions.

when entering the village, the influence of Huizhou architecture is gradually unfolding.

there are many dogs in Wen Village, and Xinye Ancient Village is no exception. The dogs in the village really seem to be different from the pet dogs in the city. When I saw a strange visitor, I didn't yell at us, but performed some gymnastic movements.

the old people and children in the village lead a leisurely life. When they saw our cameras, several of them took the initiative to show us a new video game of pose:

Douban  

Shin Ye returned, and the shooting team composed of architects and structural engineers was ready to go back to a busy week's work. At this time, they received a proposal from Douban Kui, "We can try some new games in the video together and inject some geek spirit into the material of literature and art." We hit it off. Originally, good architecture is a combination of technology and art. Hao Xiaobi of Douban, a fan of Wu Guanzhong, wants to integrate Wu Guanzhong's unique gouache and ink painting style into the video post-production of this "old-school folk house."

combine masterpieces and photos of artists to form an art painting, which is what Apple Store's Top Ten App Prisma of the year can achieve. However, the Prisma template does not provide Wu Guanzhong style template; in fact, among the many photo processing software that can do artistic rendering, very few can do Chinese ink style.

Prisma effect

so Hao Xiaobi's studio of Douban Kui is ready to implement it on her own. This requires the use of customized "deep learning" techniques to render the material of the new leaves. After many experiments and debugging, we finally get relatively satisfactory results. This magical style transformation is also used to make the opening shot of a new video:

"deep learning" technology can not only realize the stylized rendering of the video, but also can be used to "move" a photo.

this kind of 3D transformation of plane photos, which can change the lens angle, is realized by using depth learning technology to calculate the depth map (Depth Map), of photos and then using later software.
