Best wishes for animation production

In the preparation stage of animation production, the creators actually need to determine a lot of things.

Excluding related meetings that have nothing to do with content creation, the first and most important thing is of course the script meeting, whether there is an original work or not.

Because most of the subsequent design work will be based on the script, such as storyboarding, character design, prop design, art design, etc.

Then there is the pre-production meeting. Generally, the participants include animation character designers, art supervisors, sound supervisors, photography supervisors, etc. This meeting is necessary to decide the overall direction and style of the work. After all, animation production cannot be completed by one person. thing.

Otherwise, for example, if you didn't discuss it with the sound supervisor in the early stage, and the composer he found for a daily series was Hiroyuki Sawano, what would you do if he asked you...

Of course, this is just an exaggeration, and the reality is not that nonsense.

In the pre-production meeting, each project is different and the way to make decisions is also different. Some supervisors will be very iron-fisted and will directly indicate how they want to be completed. You can just follow it, but there are very few such people. In some cases, we will discuss it with other creators. Of course, the final decision-maker will still be the supervisor.

Then there are meetings on animation character design, prop design, color design and other design work.

The selection of voice actors, music and other work will also be carried out at the same time.

After the initial setting work is completed, it is time to start drawing storyboards.

However, the animation future project is a bit special.

Gu Xue accidentally failed to control herself and finished all the design work directly, and also drew the storyboards. Later, due to outsourcing, Misawa Hiro had no choice but to copy, which led to... " "Little Witch Academia" has no script at all.

In fact, if Gu Xue was bolder, she could even save the preliminary meeting. After all, most of the work has been determined, and she is not willing to change what others say...

But Gu Xue was not so bold.

Animation production is not the business of one person, and she is not the supervisor. Even the supervisor, Misawa Hiroshi, would not dare to do such a thing.

The pre-production meeting still took place.

But all the main creators were confused.

Gu Xue explained the overall style of the work in detail.

Character design, done.

Prop design, done.

Gu Xue drew more than a dozen setting pictures of the main scenes and handed them over to the art designer and art supervisor. He explained the styles of other scenes in detail, and also said that if it really didn't work and he didn't understand, he could draw them again...

Gu Xue made detailed requirements for color design, as well as the color of the animated characters’ hair, skin, eyes, clothes, etc.

Music... Gu Xue hummed the melody.

At a meeting, everyone was confused.

Gu Xue walked briskly to and from the conference table, talking a lot to each of the main creators.

Misawa Hiroshi sat at the head of the table with an expressionless face.

The corner of his mouth twitched when he saw some of the main creators looking at him, "Are you the supervisor or Miss JK the supervisor?"

So angry.

But there is no way.

The eleventh episode of "Invasion" wasted more than a month, and Gu Xue also made his attitude clear.

Want to change? Okay, you can find someone else by yourself...

Looking for someone else? The day lilies are cold.

Therefore, Misawa said he was in a calm mood and just wanted to go to the CDD Animation Workshop with explosives and detonate them.

Shit outsourcing…

The preliminary meeting went very quickly.

It's over in an hour.

It is not that no one has raised questions during this period, but now Gu Xue, who is extremely feminine, often just stands in front of the person who raises questions and asks with a sweet smile: "What's the problem?"

The person's attitude will immediately soften. Although he can barely say some counterarguments, he will soon be convinced by Gu Xue.

A group of creatives entered the conference room chatting and laughing and walked out confused.

After going out for a long time, I finally recovered.

Then they all wondered if they had been raped...

In short, the overall direction of the work has been determined, the design work is also in progress, and the storyboards are ready. Although Gu Xue may have to attend some meetings later, at least the most important work has been done for now.

When the newcomers arrive tomorrow and the painting meeting is over, Gu Xue's focus will return to her own work.

"I'm so tired, Miss Mihara." In the conference room with no outsiders, Gu Xue slumped on the chair, looking tired.

In fact, she didn't want to be so tough, but after thinking about it, she realized that it would be troublesome to slowly influence Misawa Hiroshi, and it might not be useful. If the work was really not in line with the "Little Witch Academia" in her mind, it would be It was very awkward, so Gu Xue didn't care.

It doesn't matter whether you force others to do something difficult or go against the supervision of Misawa Hiro.

After a month and a half of delay, it will be considered good if the work can be finished.

After all, half of the original animators responsible for this project are newcomers.

Miss Miyuan heard Gu Xue's complaint and thought of the expressions on the faces of the group just now. Two shallow dimples were exposed on her face. She sat down next to Gu Xue and pressed her right hands together with great elasticity. His round thighs, his face slightly red, he said: "If you are tired, do you want to take a rest?"

"Eh..." Gu Xue, who was slumped in the chair, turned around and glanced, showing a smile that said, "Sure enough, Miss Mihara is the best." She turned around and was about to lie down.

boom.

The conference room door was pushed open.

Misawa walked in, looked at Gu Xue, and said with a strange expression: "Gu Xue, would you like to meet the supervisor and chief producer of "Invasion"."

"..." Mihara Chisa stared at Misawa Hiro. If looks could kill, Misawa Hiro would probably die hundreds of times.

Misawa Hiroshi was so shocked by Miss Mihara's gaze that he shuddered and said angrily: "Did I...did I come at the wrong time?"

"No."

After all, it was working time. Gu Xue didn't say anything. She straightened up with some disappointment and asked, "What did you just say? Why should I meet with the supervisor of "Invasion"?"

"They came to the company."

Gu Xue was a little surprised and asked: "Come to our company?"

"Yes, the other party's supervisor and chief executive are in another conference room."

Gu Xue rolled her eyes and said: "Are they here to cause trouble? How can I be asked to take a job and find a company? Do you really think it's just a drop-in? After all, I am also an employee of this company, so I can act openly and honestly. If you come in and ask me to do a private job, aren't you going to put me on the fire and roast me?"

"And, if I remember correctly, CDD Animation Workshop also participated in the future animation planning, right? I suspect that they are trying to save the country and are trying to trick us. No see."

Misawa smiled and said, "I really haven't seen you? No matter what, you are still traveling with me, and you are still a guest. Isn't that bad? Moreover, they said...if you don't show up, they will kneel down in front of our company."

"Then let them kneel!"

Misawa Hiro: "..."
