Best wishes for animation production

"Did you know that there is a law called the Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests? And that same-sex relationships can also constitute sexual harassment?" Chisa Mihara covered her chest with one hand, feeling more angry than shy.

Gu Xue said sarcastically: "I was thinking about the original painting and got distracted..."

"This excuse has just been used. Sit down!" Chisa Mihara pointed at her position and said expressionlessly.

So where is the gentleness...

Gu Xue complained in her heart, and returned to her seat obediently to sit down. She had almost finished the idea, and after being interrupted, her burst of inspiration disappeared. If you ask her to continue playing monkey, she won't be able to play anymore...

Chisa Mihara also followed Gu Xue to the workbench. After Gu Xue sat down, she took out a small USB flash drive from her pocket and placed it gently on the table.

"This is some of the fighting videos I found. I found them online roughly according to the original storyboard instructions. There are also some movie clips. I just applied for a computer for you. I will help you move it over later. Please enjoy it. For reference, after the show has finalized the storyboards you changed, please immediately start drawing the L/O and the first original painting, and bring it to me or notify me as soon as you have finished drawing the card."

"Also." Mihara Chisa's eyes moved slightly downwards, looking at Gu Xue's long white legs that were together, "Please pay attention to your words and deeds. You are wearing a skirt. This is in the company, not in your room. When it’s all members of the opposite sex, if you really need to simulate the scene in your mind, please change into long pants, so as not to cause trouble to others, and please don’t make yourself uncomfortable.”

"That's it, I'm going to get the computer."

After speaking for a long time like a machine gun, Mihara Chisa turned around and left regardless of the disappointed and hostile expressions of the opposite sex around her.

Ehehehehe...?

Is this showing kindness and concern for me? Isn't this quite gentle...

Gu Xue looked at the other person's back and couldn't help but said: "Do you need my help moving the computer?"

Chisa Mihara turned around suddenly: "Are you very free? It seems to me that you haven't even drawn an L/O yet, right? If you have time to help me move my computer, just draw it for me immediately."

Gu Xue: "..."

It is indeed an illusion.

After watching the other party leave, Gu Xue withdrew her gaze and glanced at the colleagues around her who were looking at her furtively, without paying much attention.

Although she was a bit uncontrollable when her inspiration just broke out, Gu Xue was still conscious and knew very well that she had not done anything too bad. She was already quite aware of being watched.

Anyway, there won’t be any missing pieces of meat.

Again, you can see, but if you go any further, I will blow your head off!

No, it should be me...

However, Chisa Mihara's words reminded Gu Xue that she should change to a skirt with a longer hem, even if she gave up part of the coolness.

The skirts she is wearing now are all Gu Xue's high school clothes, and the high school Gu Xue attends, because it is a private school, has a very loose school spirit. The skirts of the skirts should be as short as possible, and they will fly away if they exercise a little vigorously. , although it’s not as bad as exposing your underwear, it still attracts a lot of attention, which is a bit disgusting...

so! A school should look like a school! Please order a longer skirt for me! Even if it doesn’t matter who wears it, don’t you understand that it will affect the learning efficiency of male students...

After complaining a little about her alma mater, Gu Xue put these things behind her mind, took a deep breath, and began to enter the L/O stage and the first original painting stage.

As mentioned above, the L/O stage is simply about composition, determining the characters’ movement trajectories, camera angles, perspective relationships, etc. based on the storyboard.

The original painter generally does not need to draw the background, which is the responsibility of the background team. However, in the L/O stage, the scenery of a shot needs to be confirmed, and the moving parts of the characters are generally relatively rough. It only needs to roughly outline the shape and trajectory of the character's movement. That’s it. Only after a round of inspection and correction instructions are confirmed will the original painting stage be officially entered.

This is a traditional process in animation production.

However, now that the construction schedule is very tight, the production team can no longer hold on. When the painting meeting was just held, the performance and supervision both wanted Gu Xue to directly merge the L/O and the first original painting together, and then hand it in after the painting was completed.

Gu Xue did not refuse.

This is a very helpless but normal decision.

The so-called first original painting and L/O are combined to draw the contours of the human body and the changes in movement in detail during the composition, so that after inspection and correction by the performance, painting supervisor, supervisor, and general painting supervisor, You can directly clear Eryuan. Once cleared, it will be considered completed.

Saving one step will save a lot of time and the efficiency will be much higher. Although if the original artist is not good enough, it will lead to a decrease in the overall quality of the work. After all, modifying the L/O and modifying the original painting are two different things, but this is also a helpless move.

Since the L/O is submitted together with the first original painting, the degree of completion of Gu Xue's painting cannot be too low, otherwise he will still suffer. She asked herself to clear the second original painting. If her first original painting becomes a stick figure, can she pass it? Not to mention the performance and other inspections, she herself was exhausted.

The final picture couldn't include stick figures directly. If it was a stick figure, she would have to paint the stick figure as the protagonist when she was clearing Eryuan. Just thinking about it would make her vomit blood...

In other words, the more detailed the first original painting is, the easier it will be for Gu Xue to follow.

So Gu Xue was all fired up.

Although the slightly modified storyboards haven’t been released yet, the first few shots that Gu Xue didn’t have any objections to are ready to be drawn.

What she is drawing now is the card where the protagonist is talking to the Four Heavenly Kings under the Demon King's throne. In order for the final battle to be smooth as a whole, Gu Xue took the initiative to ask for these two cards. The atmosphere before the battle is also very important. Since he took over this mess At work, she will try her best to do her best.

Draw the main character first.

The outline of the human body quickly took shape under Gu Xue's pen, with many small movements and details. Although it was just an outline, the tight feeling came out immediately.

After figuring out the protagonist, Gu Xue began to draw one of the Four Heavenly Kings in the same shot.

When different characters are under the same lens, layered painting is the best way to deal with it. It is also easy to modify. If all the characters are drawn on the same piece of paper and need to be modified, the entire original painting may have to be pushed to the next page. Come on, this is a pain that all content creators cannot bear.

Gu Xue didn't want to experience this kind of pain, and she didn't have the confidence that her original painting wouldn't need to be modified at all, so everything was just layered.

Holding the pencil, Gu Xue's wrist moves quickly. Gu Xue's speed is extremely fast, and the number of times he turns the page to check the previous original painting is very small. He almost always turns the page to check the previous one to see the characters after finishing an original painting. Is there any problem with moving?

In the middle of the process, Misawahiro came to Gu Xue once with the storyboard, told her that there was no problem with the storyboard, and silently watched Gu Xue paint for a while.

Gu Xue didn't know when the other party left. She seemed to vaguely hear him asking her what projects she was interested in participating in. However, Gu Xue had been concentrating on painting at the time, so she ignored Misawa Hiroshi. After Misawa Hiroshi left, Gu Xue She no longer cares about it. Her state is back. The more she paints, the better. She doesn't want to waste this state.
