Best wishes for animation production

After coming out of the recording studio, Gu Xue went directly back to YUKI studio.

The production of "Attack on Titan" was completely on track after the year, but the production difficulty is indeed not small, and it is indeed a challenge for YUKI Studio.

There are two main difficulties we are currently encountering. One is when the show conveys the storyboarding intention to the original painting, which is bumpy and bumpy. Because the storyboarding is all drawn by Gu Xue, it is inevitable to encounter problems in communication. There are omissions of information and performance. It often happens that you understand something yourself but have difficulty conveying it to the original painting below, or misunderstandings arise due to the infrequent communication, etc.

Because Gu Xue faces all the episodes of the show by himself, unlike ordinary animation, either a dedicated person draws the storyboards for each episode, or the same person does the storyboards for the performance. The latter has no communication cost, and the former is because it is a dedicated person Because of the storyboarding, I have a lot of time to communicate with the performance.

Gu Xue is a supervisor and is indeed very busy. It is inevitable that there will be oversights.

This can be regarded as the sequelae of Gu Xue's forced acceleration of the "Attack on Titan" project. At the beginning of this model, there were ready-made scenes, and the progress was indeed fast, but this speed obviously came at a cost.

Fortunately, the price is not very high.

Many performances have realized this problem, and Gu Xue is also trying his best to improve the situation, with good results.

As for another difficulty, it is painting.

In fact, all animation production sites will encounter painting problems. Animation is drawn, and the pursuit of pictures has no upper limit in theory. Unfortunately, reality does not allow for unlimited pursuits. Compromise is the norm, and balance is definitely required.

How to compromise, where to compromise, and how to balance painting resources are all technical tasks. Especially for a project like Titan, it is a big challenge for the production team. In addition, there is the original painting. Many shots of Titan require the experience of YUKI Studio. It is indeed too difficult for less experienced original painters.

However, the biggest difficulty currently encountered in painting "Attack on Titan" is not the above problems, but the cuts in the animation.

Gu Xue has experience in how to balance and compromise.

Was the shot too difficult for the original animators?

Just draw, don't be afraid of scrapping the manuscript, there will be someone who knows everything.

But in the middle of the animation... "Attack on Titan" has many difficult scenes. The outsourcing company is simply unwilling to accept them. The reason is that it is too troublesome and difficult. Drawing a single shot of Titan in the middle may not be enough to draw several ordinary shots. Animation, and considering the strict standards of YUKI Studio, the probability of return...most outsourcing companies rejected it.

Gu Xue can't let the original painters or big guys in the studio cut off the painting, right? It’s not realistic at all, so there’s nothing you can do. In the end, you can only add more money…

Adding money immediately solved many problems.

Just double it several times, it's simple and crude, and the money just goes out... It's very distressing.

This situation had been considered during the planning and budgeting of "Attack on Titan", but when it came to actual production, she faced the terrifying situation of spending money like water. Although Gu Xue knew intellectually that this was normal, emotionally she still felt distressed. .

Very distressed.

Yu Jingyao was even more exaggerated than her. After Gu Rou went to Small Company, the financial power of the studio fell into her hands. She can intuitively feel what it means to spend money like water more than Gu Xue.

It was obviously Gu Xue's money, but she felt more distressed than Gu Xue...

He followed Gu Xue every day to save her time, over and over again, making Gu Xue afraid every time he saw her.

However, Yujing Yao kept nagging about it, but she never thought of using Gu Xue's money-saving nuclear weapon, and she never said to Gu Xue, "If you draw more, we will save more."

After all, she still felt sorry for Gu Xue, who was like a sister. To save money, that is to say...

Of course, Gu Xue didn't know what she was thinking.

Her thoughts did not prevent Gu Xue from avoiding her and being chased and muttered... It was not really a pleasant experience.

This time back from the recording studio.

After Gu Xue asked Miss Mihara and Sato Ei to do their own thing, she quietly walked into her office.

I'm afraid that Yu Jingyao will find him...

The song recording is finished, but OP is not in a hurry.

But it can be expected that the closer the broadcast date is, the less manpower YUKI Studio will be able to spare. Instead of waiting for a while to find someone to rush to the OP, Gu Xue feels that it is better to take the time to draw it now.

Just do it.

Gu Xue sat back in her seat, took out the original drawing paper, and started drawing with her pen.

But she just started.

With the sound of the heels of high heels hitting the floor, Yu Jingyao burst into the office.

As soon as she came in, she shouted urgently: "Gu Xue, you prodigal daughter!"

Gu Xue shrank her shoulders and was startled.

She slowly raised her head and asked unreasonably and confidently: "What are you doing again?"

"Why are you still asking me?"

Yu Jingyao came to Gu Xue and rubbed her face vigorously.

But instead of mentioning the budget, he brought up a topic that had nothing to do with the budget.

"Do you know how expensive the recording studio charges? Why don't you want to record the OP after recording it once?"

When Gu Xue heard this, she was startled and said vaguely: "Huh!?? How do you branch out..."

But that’s half the story.

Gu Xue figured it out on his own.

She pushed Yu Jingyao's hand away, stood up with a swipe, and looked excited, ready to beat up Sato Ei, a young boy.

Yu Jingyao pushed her back.

"Don't try to escape. I have something to discuss with you."

Yu Jingyao pressed her shoulders, seducing... or threatening: "The OP you recorded, let me contact the recording studio to do the post-production, and then use it as a bonus for the first volume of the BD."

"...Don't even think about it!" Gu Xue was stunned and reacted extremely fiercely, "Yu Jingyao, my public execution is not enough, you want me to be embarrassed in front of so many people? Absolutely impossible!"

"Why are you embarrassed? You sing very well, and you don't show your face, it's just your voice. What are you afraid of? It can stimulate sales and make back the money you spent... Don't hesitate, listen to my sister!"

Yu Jingyao comforted... or rather gave Gu Xue a few perfunctory words, then took out her cell phone and planned to call Hashimoto Jin.

"Wait a minute! Yu Jing Yao! Stop it!" Gu Xue jumped up and hugged Yu Jing Yao's waist.

Yu Jingyao struggled: "Let me go! The studio spends money like water. As a veteran of two dynasties, the new owner is weak. I should share the worries of the new owner!"

"……speak English!"

"Why are you hiding such a beautiful girl every day! She is so cute every day and wants everyone to know that she is a beautiful girl. It's better for you. I don't care if you don't have to show up. You have to refuse to make money. You are stupid, but I am not stupid. , If you don’t make it, I’ll make it! I’ll make the money for sure!”

"No! I don't agree. You're so cute. I can also repeat words, young bastard!" Gu Xue hugged her waist hard.

"Let go." Yujing Yao was determined to leave, "If you don't let me go, I will sue Gu Rou about you taking Gu Xiao's money!"

"..."

Gu Xue was instantly frightened.

Yu Jingyao turned to look at Gu Xue, snorted, raised her neck like a proud goose, stepped on high heels, and left.

"correct."

Arriving at the door, Yu Jingyao turned around, thought of something, and suddenly said:

"You will receive an award later, the Kyoto Animation Award!"

Gu Xue: "...?"

Just finished.

Just...going to show up?

? ? ? ? ?

I coded it on the way home. There may be some problems.
