Zheng's skin is highly detailed, with 100,000 hair strands, 143 bones, and over 5,000 micro-expressions... NExT Studios' self-developed xFaceBuilder® digital character production pipeline, which includes fine modeling of body, hair, garment and accessories, face binding, and animation production, and NExT's self-developed xMoCap® 3A motion capture animation process pipeline breathed life into Zheng.
Zheng is also the first "digital journalist" to arrive on Mars. During the trip to Mars, the special effects of the space suit, Mars rover, clouds, and lightning were recreated. We tackled the technical challenge of immersive display on five screens. We collaborated with NExT audio team and used Dolby Atmos technology to create a special 360-degree surround scenario with spatial audio, presenting a detailed, rich, realistic, and immersive surface of Mars.
