Get Ready for Xiao Ding’s Next Epic Adventure: ‘Sky Shadow’ Takes Flight on September 21st
Black fire burns the heart, only shadows are nameless. Why do the Five Pillars geniuses hide their identities, and how will they rise after losing their cultivation? After “Zhu Xian”, Xiao Ding’s another masterpiece “Tian Ying” has been officially scheduled to be released on Tencent Video at 10 am on September 21. Less than two days after the trailer was released, it rushed to the second place on Tencent Video’s animation expectation list, and the number of views on Douyin and other networks exceeded 50 million.
Different from the traditional immortal cultivation works that fight monsters and upgrade routines, the animation “Sky Shadow” focuses more on showing the choice between human nature and morality, creating three-dimensional and multi-faceted characters, and arousing the audience’s thinking and emotional resonance. As a classic work of fantasy themes, “Sky Shadow” carefully integrates traditional cultural elements in every detail from the character’s costume modeling, prop design, architectural style to the construction of battle scenes, creating a Chinese-style animation that combines modern aesthetics with the characteristics of national style immortals, showing a unique “Oriental aesthetics”.
In addition to personalized exploration in content and style, “Sky Shadow” has also achieved innovation and breakthroughs in creative techniques and technical applications. With its deep accumulation in the field of stylized 3D technology, Boruntong uses the digital animation production technology of “motion capture + Unreal Engine + AI” to demonstrate flexible lens application, as well as a large number of visual effects and dynamic scenes, bringing a shocking visual impact to the audience.
The sword is as cold as frost and snow, slashing away all demonic obstacles; the shadow is as strong as a mountain, protecting all beings in the three realms! Stay tuned to Tencent Video to witness the undercover genius’s journey to enlightenment.
