Best wishes for animation production

In fact, Qianshi was not slow at drawing storyboards. He finished most of the shots in a few weeks. His understanding was not bad either. He implemented most of Gu Xue's opinions and requests.

But he got stuck on the final storyboard design of the most critical B part of the second episode.

Gu Xue was the most detailed and had the most requirements for this part of the storyboard. Qianshi struggled for a long time and only drew three shots. Moreover, he was not very satisfied with these three shots.

Something feels wrong.

He sat in his seat, rubbing his eyebrows. After his eyelids finally stopped twitching, he thought about it, picked up the headphones on the workbench again, and played what Gu Xue told him in the conference room that day. past creative requirements.

But it was of no use at all.

The more I listened, the more confused I became.

Qianshi stared at the phone blankly for a while, then moved his gaze to the storyboard next to him, and scratched his head vigorously.

Hair fell all over the floor.

"Bah, blah, blah, that's all you can say!"

Qianshi took off his headphones and leaned back in his chair, feeling a little painful.

When drawing storyboards, the content of the picture does not need to be too specific, and it can even be sketched and casual.

But the premise is that the storyboard artist must know what he is drawing, and the time and space relationship between the main characters, lines and scenes must be determined. Otherwise, no matter how good the drawing is, it will be of no use to others if they don’t understand it.

For example, in the first episode drawn by Gu Xue, she sketched the shots casually. She didn't even know what they looked like, so how could she explain it to the original paintings underneath?

The same is true for other people's storyboard drawings. There is actually no problem if the storyboards are sloppy or poorly drawn. As long as you can explain what you have drawn clearly when someone doesn't understand and comes to ask, there will be no problem. Being meticulous or sloppy is nothing more than a matter of communication costs.

Some people can't even draw, but they can draw storyboards and serve as supervisors. This is why.

Therefore, Qianshi didn't know how to draw, but he didn't dare to casually deal with the storyboarding. Gu Xue had so many demands, and casually dealt with the painting. Whether he could pass it or not, even if he passed it, he would still be in the second episode. What about the performance... What will I tell the original artists then? When people don’t understand, they come over and ask how to explain? You can't say that I have lost my memory, you can just take care of it yourself...

Not only would Gu Xue not let him go, Qian Shi would also not let him go.

He is an animator, not a fraudster.

The best way now is to ask Gu Xue, but...

Although Sengoku is not Hiratsuka Yu, he still wants to be proud.

Asking a girl who is younger than you but also very beautiful about creative issues, isn't it like admitting that you can't draw and don't know how to draw?

It's really embarrassing...

"Ah..." Qianshi looked at the storyboard and let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong? Did something good happen to you?"

A voice suddenly sounded behind him, with a strong sense of ridicule.

"Yeah, something good happened, are you trying to cheat again?" Qian Shitou didn't reply, because he knew who it was by the sound of his voice.

Zhu Chi, who was standing behind Qian Shi, heard his words and his face suddenly darkened.

Same as the bottom of the pot.

At that time, the chief animation supervisor and assistant talked a lot of nonsense and was a big mouth. I don’t know why his words were spread, and now the whole company knows about it...

For a long time, he didn't even dare to go to the toilet, and then... he almost held his urine in until it induced psychogenic enuresis.

What he hates most now is hearing the word shit.

It's just like a demon...

"Damn it." Zhu Chi, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, cursed and turned to leave.

Qianshi glanced at him from the corner of his eye, stopped joking, and said softly: "I understand your mood now."

Zhu Chi, who just wanted to leave quickly, slowly stopped, was silent for a while, and asked.

"...I heard that the first episode where Gu Xue is in charge of storyboarding has started production? You haven't finished the storyboarding for the second episode yet?"

Zhu Chi is currently in charge of another work produced by the company, but Gu Xue is responsible for supervising the animation of "Embracing a Better Tomorrow". Of course he knows that the reason why he came to Qianshi this time is because he cares.

Although Gu Xue was the culprit who gave him the title of Shit-eating Pioneer...and in a sense was his enemy, this did not conflict with Zhu Chi's admiration for her.

Because he also has a background in original painting.

And Gu Xue can achieve this level at such a young age, which is really worthy of admiration.

"If the painting is done, I won't talk nonsense with you here." Qianshi and Zhu Chi have been friends for many years, and they are not polite at all.

"If it doesn't work, just go out for a walk." Zhu Chi didn't care about the tone of his words and advised him kindly. Anyway, as long as you don't mention shit, everything will be easy to talk about.

Qianshi sighed helplessly, "It's not a question of whether I can walk or not. There are only these few shots left. I always feel like I can draw them in one go, but when I actually pick up the pen, I can't draw them. Even if I force myself to draw them, I still feel... question."

Zhu Chi glanced at the storyboard on his workbench and said, "Let's ask Miss JK."

He heard this title last time when he went to Gu Xue's old employer to ask Gu Xue to take over the job. It was smooth and appropriate, so he followed suit.

Qianshi didn't bother with the issue of Zhu Chi's title. Of course he knew who Zhu Chi was referring to.

He shook his head, "It's not something that should be asked or ignored."

Zhu Chi glanced at Qianshi and smiled. They had known each other for so long. Of course he knew what Qianshi was thinking. He did not continue to persuade him, but said: "It's okay if you don't ask. Let's go and watch "Uncle". Supervisor JK participated in the last episode. Although these are two different animations, at least the themes are similar. Maybe some of Supervisor JK’s production ideas will be reflected in it.”

"..."

Qianshi was stunned when he heard what he said, then suddenly picked up his phone and said, "Yeah, damn, you're right, I haven't watched this animation yet."

After saying that, he ignored Zhu Chi and directly clicked on the video website and searched for animations.

Zhu Chi was not in a hurry to leave. He stood behind him and watched the animation with him...

The first half of the twelfth episode of the "Uncle" animation was pretty crappy. When Qianshi was watching it, his brows furrowed and he glanced at the title a few times to make sure that he had read the animation correctly before he read on patiently.

Then……

In the second half of the animation, the style of painting changes suddenly.

When Qianshi saw the shot of the male protagonist flying into the sky, he immediately let out a "f*ck" sound. He was so shocked that he stopped talking. He didn't know whether he was immersed in the animation or thinking about something.

Zhu Chi stood behind him, looked at the screen of his mobile phone, and sighed secretly. Although he had watched the animation once, his feelings had not changed after watching it again.

It just feels incredible.

The animation lasted just over twenty minutes and was finished quickly.

Zhuchi, who was shocked again after watching the animation, sighed, glanced at Qianshi, who seemed to have not come back to his senses, said hello, and was about to leave.

But he just turned around.

Qianshi suddenly shouted: "I understand! I understand!"

"You don't have to do this even after you have ascended."

Zhu Chi, who was startled by his loud voice, lost his temper.

Qianshi didn't care what he said at all. With excitement on his face, he suddenly picked up the pencil and started to draw the storyboard while muttering to himself: "What does it mean to be determined, what does it mean to vomit your soul, what does it mean to vomit your soul, what does it mean?" There is no turning back, I know it.”

"..."

Zhu Chi was a little curious, so he turned around again, stretched his head, and looked at the lens where Qianshi was drawing.

Storyboards are no better than original paintings. As long as you have inspiration, it will be faster if you draw a little more sloppily.

Sengoku seemed to have an idea now. Although the drawing was very sloppy, it was really fast.

Zhu Chi stood silently behind him for a long time.

His face became increasingly weird.

After watching it for a while, Zhu Chi couldn't help it anymore.

"Are you sure... do you really understand? At that time, I saw the storyboard of the eleventh episode of "Invasion" by Gu Xuehua, no..."

"Stop talking nonsense, be sure, I'm extremely sure." Qianshi turned his head impatiently and said, then a look of excitement appeared on his face, and loudly said: "Just wait, I will show you what it means to be an immortal in a moment. Storyboarding.”
