Chapter 1685 Newborn Design

The image to be designed this time is Wonder Woman?

After hearing Bai Ningyuan's words, Wilkinson couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

This still requires special design? The image on the comics is already very clear.

Star underwear, big flesh legs, red boots and strapless armor. Although Wonder Woman's image in the comics has always changed, the overall changes have not been very big.

What's more, her image has been clearly interpreted in the two previous American dramas. Where is there anything that needs to be redesigned?

Wilkinson felt that the oriental man in front of him was really a fool. He obviously didn't understand the essence of American comics at all, but he actually wanted to point fingers.

"Don't you think that although the image of Wonder Woman adapted into TV in the comics and the previous two movies is very consistent with the setting, both the material and the image of the costumes are too cheap, far behind the current aesthetics. From them, they can't tell the style that heroes should have, but they are like a clown selling meat." Perhaps seeing what Wilkinson was thinking, Bai Ningyuan did not feel any dissatisfied, but said to Wilkinson with a calm face.

After saying that, before Wilkinson could respond, he took out two A4 papers from the side and displayed them in front of Wilkinson. These were the two photos he had printed with the printer in the room before.

One is the image of the protagonist in the TV series "Wonder Woman" which was cut off after only one episode aired last year, while the other is the image of the Black Widow in "Avengers".

"Looking at the comparison between these two photos, I think the gap is already very obvious. If you are an ordinary audience, between these two characters, not based on fame or appearance, which one do you prefer?" Bai Ningyuan said calmly to Wilkinson.

Wilkinson looked at the two photos shown in front of him and hesitated for a moment. He had to admit that from the perspective of the audience alone, Black Widow's appearance was indeed more in line with his aesthetic view.

As for the Wonder Woman, her tights, her bright red rubber boots and strapless armor, she looks like a low-cost copycat movie, which looks very amateur.

"Facts have proved that the current outfit is really outdated and it can't arouse the audience's desire to watch!" Bai Ningyuan put away the photo and then looked at Wilkinson with a serious face: "I want to create a brand new Wonder Woman, which makes people just look at it. The first feeling is that it is both beautiful and extremely cool."

By this time, Wilkinson no longer said anything, but changed into a serious look and listened to the requests Bai Ningyuan said.

"First of all, we need to be clear about the positioning of the movie. Although this is a movie adapted from a comic, it should be classified as a science fiction. As a movie with strong commercial nature, the elements that audiences like are what we want to pursue. What is the most popular element since the Marvel series became popular? There is no doubt that - mecha, mecha is the eternal romance of men!" When Bai Ningyuan said this, he paused and looked at Wilkinson who looked serious and thoughtful, and then continued to speak: "No matter what, Wonder Woman is a woman, and as the main force of watching the movie, no one wants to see an extremely powerful woman killing all over the movie. This is a question of substitution. Because of this, we need to make up for these in other aspects."

"The first thing is the costume. As mentioned earlier, mechas are one of the most exciting elements that can make men's blood boil. Why is "Iron Man" so popular? The reason is that his armor is extremely cool, so we can apply this element to Wonder Woman. Of course, I didn't let Wonder Woman turn on the mecha, which goes against the original intention. What I mean is, why can't we improve the costumes on Wonder Woman, and use armor to replace star pants and rubber boots. In this way, Wonder Woman can add a warrior atmosphere and resonate with men more easily!" Bai Ningyuan said as he took out another picture.

This is a simple trace, a tall figure standing on a statue overlooking the entire city. Although it is just a simple trace, Wilkinson was attracted in one go.

He took the drawing from Bai Ningyuan's hand, then frowned and looked at it seriously.

Combining what Bai Ningyuan said just now, a brand new image in his mind was gradually becoming clear. Then, he said for the first time: "Yes, you are right. The costumes in those works before were not chosen by a warrior at all. What's more, Wonder Woman has lived as a superhero for more than 3,000 years as set. I think the style of adding gladiator is very good. After adding this ancient atmosphere, it is more in line with her setting."

Wilkinson has now completely entered the working state and has discussed this setting issue with Bai Ningyuan.

As he said that, he also took paper and pen and quickly traced it on the paper.

As a fashion designer, Wilkinson's basic skills are also quite outstanding, so in a short while, an image gradually emerged in his writing.

He has designed costumes for "Spartan 300 Warriors", and naturally he has some knowledge of this kind of ancient costume, so when he describes it, he feels confident.

At the beginning, the costumes seemed to be unable to escape the shadow of the comics. After all, Wilkinson had also read the Wonder Woman comics and was deeply influenced by the comics. He also realized this and frowned, and then kept painting and changing the picture.

Gradually, the style gradually became very different from before.

Metal and leather are cleverly interspersed together to form a uniform with ancient Greek culture and gladiatorial style.

The star shorts that were originally very low were modified to a slotted skirt made of leather. The red rubber boots that were originally very cheap were replaced with beautiful lines but also had a unique cold and colorful feeling of metal. The leather straps interspersed during the period added a bit of ancient primitive atmosphere.

At this time, Wilkinson seemed to have entered a state of madness, constantly trying hard to modify the image he wrote. As the image gradually became clear, his originally frowning brows gradually began to become more relaxed.

Bai Ningyuan sat beside him, watching the image he wrote gradually become clear. It has to be said that Wilkinson is worthy of being recommended by Harvey Weinstein and has a lot of experience. Although the characters he wrote clearly draw on many of the images he had described based on dreams, after adding his own creation and understanding of some ancient civilizations, the whole image suddenly became fuller, which was much more distinct than the image he had in his previous dreams.

Although Bai Ningyuan did not know much about the character Wonder Woman, he himself admitted that the image on that paper was no longer just showing off his flesh, but truly reflected the heroic appearance of a warrior, gradually achieving a balance between elegance and majesty, power and softness.

More importantly, the current Wonder Woman has become more in line with the aesthetics of all the public after she no longer has the obvious "American symbol" in the previous comics.

If a movie wants to be truly successful, it cannot rely solely on a certain market. Therefore, Hollywood movies are gradually blurring the concept of national symbols, and at least not particularly highlighting the American things in image, hoping to gain more recognition in the global market.

The same is true now. According to Bai Ningyuan's idea, the Wonder Woman, who was reborn in Will Golden's hands, gradually transcended the shackles of her in the previous comics and became more popular.

"Mr. Bai, my mind is quite complicated now. Please allow me to go back and sort out the set questions, and then hand over the final sample draft to you as soon as possible..." Wilkinson pondered for a moment after completing the line draft at hand, before speaking to Bai Ningyuan.

It can be seen that at this time, he was still a little dissatisfied with the works in his hands, and this line draft can only be regarded as a draft. He needs to spend more time completing the final design and then hand over the rendered works to Bai Ningyuan.

For some reason, Wilkinson also had a refreshing feeling at this time, as if he was creating something extraordinary.

Of course, Bai Ningyuan knew very well that good designs cannot be achieved overnight. What is needed is the craftsmanship of excellence. He had high hopes for this movie. As he said, he wanted to make Gael Gadot a symbol of Wonder Woman, so that people would involuntarily associate her with her whenever they mentioned Wonder Woman.

Therefore, he naturally agreed to Wilkinson's request. As long as the best result is achieved, he is willing to wait patiently.

But he also believed that he would not wait too long.

After Wilkinson left, Bai Ningyuan immediately outlined the image of Gale Gado's specific makeup in his mind. After a moment, he drove these messy thoughts out of his mind, then opened the notebook and browsed the information above again.

After having Wilkinson, he didn't have to think about image design anymore. The next step is to concentrate on solving another thing...
