Best wishes for animation production

"Welcome everyone...and thank you for trusting me."

Gu Xue bowed and pressed his head down again before straightening up.

Among the people present, except for those who were familiar with Gu Xue and the three newcomers who were completely unmoved in front of Gu Xue, the rest were all middle-aged men who were not too young. Their temples were all gray. What a scene. They had never seen it before. Facing Gu Xue's bow, they bowed down humbly and let it pass.

Oh, the color designer is a little younger, probably just thirty years old. He is also more... how should I put it, a little more cheerful. Faced with Gu Xue's bow, he shouted "I will work hard", which seemed a bit abrupt.

Gu Xue glanced at him, still not remembering his name, and could only show him an awkward yet polite smile...

Then he looked at everyone again and said softly: "Thank you very much. It's really a great encouragement for you to come with me as a newbie. I believe that Misawa Hiroshi has already told you about some trivial things. Those little things I won’t mention it anymore, I’ll just talk about my purpose of establishing this studio.”

"The first purpose of establishing this studio is, of course, to make the animation we want to make. It's that simple."

Gu Xue stood at the front of the conference table. After saying her first purpose, she seemed to have thought of something interesting, and she pursed her lips and laughed softly.

"The second purpose... is to let you work with peace of mind and be a pure animator. Even if it is outsourcing or even accepting some advertising or other work, you can do it with peace of mind and do your best. . Therefore, the second purpose of the studio is to... make animations with integrity or let you become animators with integrity."

"I know it's difficult. I don't know how long this studio can last. I haven't even received a job, but I still set such a goal. This is probably... my persistence as an animator."

"Of course." Gu Xue looked at them all with thoughtful expressions and changed the topic, "We must make money in the early stage. I am more eager than you. Being an animator with integrity also requires money. Well, so you don’t have to worry about me being an idealist, I’m realistic..."

Everyone: "..."

"Since we're talking about money, let's talk about salary."

After Gu Xue started talking, he got straight to the point: "Let me talk about the original animators first. Now in the industry, payment is calculated by card. To participate in ordinary TV animation, the average per card is about 280 yuan. For studios, it will be increased by 10 yuan. %. Of course, this is not certain, it is just a benchmark. As long as you are still working in the studio, you will maintain the custom of a 10% increase."

"In addition, the studio will also sign a formal contract with you, and social insurance and pension insurance will also be paid. And even if you don't participate in animation production, you will still have a certain basic salary, which will not be very low, and it will not be a show. , of course, this also means that you can only participate in studio work."

Original paintings: "..."

They were really surprised.

Seeing their expressions, Gu Xue smiled: "I am also an original painter, so I am very aware of your unspeakable secrets. I made this decision after careful consideration... Oh, by the way, this is just a tentative rule. If necessary, you can become a regular employee. All conditions will not change, but the salary will no longer be calculated by card. Instead, the studio will pay you a fixed salary every month. As for the fixed salary, it will be based on ability. It will be different. I will talk about the details later when I have the opportunity. You can think about it."

Zhong Yuanhua looked at Gu Xue and was really moved!

This sounds very reliable. I have never heard of any animation production company that gives a fixed salary to the original animation. They are all calculated by card, and one card costs more than 200 yuan, and they also charge dozens of yuan in management fees... …

Although it is certainly a lot of work, but... the feeling of having a fixed income from the original painting is very tempting, isn't it?

This is giving money!

but……

Zhong Yuanhua looked at Gu Xue's smiling face and felt a little scared for no reason. He didn't know if it was an illusion.

Gu Xue didn't explain either.

Well, although the fixed salary seems to be a loss, after all, the studio has just been established, let alone independent animation production, and has not even received outsourcing, but it cannot be denied that this is indeed the best system in animation production.

Like KyoAni and Ghibli, their own companies work on their own company's works and work hard for their own company's works.

It’s the ‘shortcut’ to making good work.

Although the studio has just started, there are not many people, let alone a production team. But it is not a bad thing to lay a good foundation, stabilize people's hearts, and implant certain concepts. Since Gu Xue decided to open this studio, of course he had other ideas.

As for the shortcomings and problems derived from this system.

Gu Xue...actually thinks she has a solution.

The style has solidified, the scope of drama has narrowed, and there is no high-quality planning or anything... Gu Xue has really never worried about it. She is just worried that the studio will not be able to sustain it in the early stage, there will be no one, and it will not be able to get money, or it will turn into a pure one after getting the money. Wage earner.

After waiting for the original paintings to digest what he said, Gu Xue looked at several artists again and said the same conditions.

Finally, she looked at the photography supervisor Yamamaru and said: "Mr. Yamamaru, needless to say, the salary has always been fixed, and it has also been increased by 10%. In addition, the training of new people... may also trouble you."

Mr. Yamamaru smiled and nodded.

Seeing that he agreed, Gu Xue breathed a sigh of relief, clapped her hands, attracted everyone who was meditating, and said: "Everyone should get a little familiar with the environment in the past few days. If you are interested, you can also draw some pictures and logos of the studio. , anthropomorphism or simple landscape painting can be used. As for the next work... the studio should make a short film in a while, it will take a few minutes, and it will probably be a promotional video for the studio, so that everyone can get used to it, and at the same time, it is also for the sake of contact. Outsourcing companies for other processes will lay the foundation.”

Although making a short film or something is a bit luxurious.

But Gu Xue felt it was necessary.

Moreover, maybe the short film doesn’t have to be funded by one’s own money.

"in addition."

Gu Xue thought for a while, looked around at everyone, took a deep breath, and said: "The copyright of "Little Witch Academia" is also in the studio, please be prepared."

"..."

Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

They have all participated in the production of "Little Witch Academia" and have a certain affection for this animation, which is different from most animations currently on the market.

Although they don’t know how Gu Xue obtained the copyright, this news is really reassuring for them who have just changed jobs.

Gu Xue, who had drawn a cake, saw their expressions. Although she didn't laugh, her eyes were full of smiles.

Then, after Gu Xue decided on most important things, he talked about some trivial matters.

After half an hour, the meeting ended.

Most people left the conference room, leaving only Miss Mihara and Hiroshi Misawa.

They are also considered the founders of the studio.

"Xiaoxue, do you really want to give me a fixed salary?" Although Chisa Mihara didn't say anything just now, it was obvious that he was quite worried.

Gu Xue: "Don't worry, the worst possible outcome is bankruptcy."

Chisa Mihara: "..."

Hironori Misawa was holding his cell phone and sitting on a chair. He had been a little absent-minded since the beginning of the meeting. Now he looked gloomy. He looked at the happy Gu Xue, hesitated for a moment, and said a piece of bad news: "Gu Xue, "Little Witch Academia" "Garden"...did not get the gold reward."
