As the footage continues to advance, speakers emit a deafening boom of distortion noise.
Logically, the editor could have used so technical ans to remove this "noise," but they deliberately kept this "noise" and enhanced it, believing that this so-called "noise" adds a sense of realism and shock to the promo, making the audience truly feel the sensation of riding the storm.
The duration of Wang Ye's entire free fall lasts over a minute.
Naturally, the promo won't show it all; editors and company executives will select the most exciting parts to screen.
In an instant, the screen transitions to the mont Wang Ye encounters a rocky peril in mid-air — a mont that unfolds in the blink of an eye, causing the few spectators around the screen to tense up!
Typically, third-person perspective shots often struggle to convey the instantaneousness and impact felt by the person involved. Therefore, action films usually rely on techniques like "fra skipping," "collision tremors," "flashes," and "blackouts" to simulate the sensation of hits.
The sa holds true for such footage shot from afar by helicopter. Even if Wang Ye's actions were incredibly fast at the ti, this distant and blurry perspective couldn't capture even a fraction of it.
Thus, the editor specifically switched to the shoulder-mounted cara angle Wang Ye used for his livestream.
This kind of close-range sports cara typically features a wide-angle lens, designed for a larger view and deeper field of vision, without focusing on controlling image distortion, which gives a strong sense of depth and impact in the footage, making it ideal for showcasing the subject's dynamics and speed, bringing the image to life.
However, since Wang Ye was livestreaming at the ti, the image quality was compressed by the platform, resulting in not very clear resolution. Even though the editing team applied post-production special processing to make it slightly clearer, it is still evidently inferior compared to other shots. But it has an advantage that the editing team couldn't resist, as it enhances the sense of speed in the action and better restores Wang Ye's agility in avoiding danger.
Therefore, they ultimately decided to accept the flaws and use this shot.
But this speed is far from enough, only barely conveying a tenth of the actual speed at the ti.
Thus, the editor continued to employ techniques from action-ga films to showcase the sense of speed, continually restoring the visual impact of this scene, finally creating the version presented before the audience's eyes.
Suddenly, a massive rock appears in the path of the footage,
and Wang Ye's movents beco exponentially faster in an instant, like characters dodging bullets in The Matrix, with limbs transforming into blurs beyond the cara's capture, instantly changing direction, narrowly avoiding the rock.
In the shot, it can be clearly seen that Wang Ye's torso was within a few centiters of the rock, aning, had his response or movent been slower by a few milliseconds, he could have died on the spot.
This precisely highlights Wang Ye's astonishing reaction speed. Had it been any ordinary person, they might not even have noticed the sudden appearance of the rock, crashing into it instantly!
At this mont, Li Weimin and the other photographers watched with wide eyes. The bright hues of the blue-white snowy background on the screen flickered across their faces, illuminating their expressions.
Even Ah Gui, primarily responsible for making this promo, couldn't help but hold his breath.
He had watched this promo countless tis during its making, but the sense of awe never waned. This truly extraordinary feat unfolding before the eyes is more astonishing than any superhero special-effects blockbuster, because it cos from deep within the soul, not just a visual impact.
Majestic as if riding the wind, without knowing where it would stop. Can humans genuinely achieve this?

Approximately half a minute passed.
The promo was finally screened to the end.
The screening room fell into silent shock,
as everyone couldn't help but savor the footage just seen.
Li Weimin was the first to applaud, "Good, very good! I believe this version is completely ready for release! Wang Ye, what do you think?"
Wang Ye nodded and praised, "Indeed, very good. In my opinion, it competes with cinematic quality."
"Thank you both for the praise. If there are no issues, we'll finalize and send it to headquarters!" Ah Gui's joy was uncontrollable. Seeing his dedicated, hard work recognized, especially by higher-ups, any creator in any field would feel a sense of genuine joy.
Soon.
The promo was approved,
and released on Anta's official accounts across multiple platforms.
Upon release, the promo quickly surged, becoming the day's most-watched video.
Even Wang Ye's completion of "Celestial Descent" was trending and increasingly discussed, so much so that even the elderly who rarely use the internet heard about this event in everyday conversations.
