My Animation Era

  Chapter 117 HD remake (subscription required)

  What can Gu Miao say?

  Of course, from the standpoint of "independence, objectivity, and third party", I advise everyone to calm down and distinguish the boundaries between reality and virtuality.

   Don't be blinded by anger!

  Although he also feels that the top of his head is green, and he is very unhappy about it, but this is the three-dimensional real world, not the two-dimensional virtual world.

  If it feels unfair...

  Then you also hold a wedding! Anyway, there is no crime of bigamy in "paper man". You can marry whoever you like, and Uncle Gu agrees with both hands and feet.

certainly!

   Even if you have such an idea, it is best not to make it public.

  The death of a society is a trivial matter, and the thick-skinned human rights will pretend nothing happens. The key is Usagi Tsukino in the animation, who is only 14 years old this year!

   Is this too perverted?

  For Gu Miao and Wanbao Animation, the incident in North America seemed to have nothing to do with them, but it was actually a good thing.

   What a great thing!

  The animation "Sailor Moon", which was already very popular, took advantage of this wave of news, and its ratings soared instantly, winning the ratings champion in 36 countries and regions in one fell swoop.

   "Uncle Gu! Uncle Gu!"

   "Tell everyone the story of "Sailor Moon" reaching the top ratings in 36 countries! I haven't heard it for three minutes, it feels like there are ants crawling on my body, I feel so uncomfortable."

  Director Wang said in a strange way: "I like your words very much—people who don't like watching "Sailor Moon" have low quality and cultivation, right?"

"roll!"

  The veins on Gu Miao's forehead popped up and he said, "Are you finding fault on purpose? You don't sit in the office drinking tea and reading newspapers during working hours, so you come here to be weird, right?"

   "I miss you!"

  Director Wang didn't mind Gu Miao's attitude either, so he moved a stool and sat aside and said, "It just so happens that I'm relatively free today, so I took time to come and see you."

   Pull it down quickly.

  Gu Miao would not believe his nonsense, why miss him? It is clear that "Sailor Moon" has become so popular recently that they came here to ask for the second season of the animation in the middle version.

   "It's not that easy."

  Gu Miao was tinkering with her [Plasticine Ryujin], while explaining: "The Japanese version of "Sailor Moon" has only been broadcast to the 24th episode, how can the Chinese version be released so soon?"

  Translation also takes time!

  Although I have experience in dubbing episodes 1-12 and have a team that cooperates tacitly, the dubbing of episodes 13-24 will take a week to complete.

   This is already fast.

  Including complex processes such as subtitles, dubbing, polishing and translation of lines, etc., it can only be done so quickly, it can only be said that Wanbao did its best.

   "What about "Dragon Fighter"?"

  Director Wang asked curiously: "Can I see the finished film before the summer vacation?"

"it should be OK."

  Gu Miao was not very sure.

  Because the animation production progress of "Dragon Fighter" is relatively slow compared to Wanbao's previous animations.

  Don’t compare Flash animations like “Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf” to…

  Although they are all "animation production" software, but compared with other 2D animation production software, Flash is still a bit old and crude.

Do not misunderstand!

   It doesn't mean that Flash is not easy to use and cannot make good animations. It's just that relatively speaking, using better "paperless painting tools", the production progress is definitely not as fast as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf".

   Slow work leads to meticulous work.

   Extending the animation construction period in exchange for better painting quality and smoother animation performance, Gu Miao thinks it is reasonable.

   But Director Wang was not very satisfied.

  I saw him sigh and criticize by name: "Xiao Gu, this doesn't fit your personality as a quick shooter. Is it difficult to finish an animation before the summer vacation?"

Easier said than done!

   "All right, all right."

  Gu Miao, who was too lazy to talk to this old guy, turned her head and said, "It's nothing, you old man, go back to work quickly! What's the matter? You still want me to keep you for lunch?"

   "It's not impossible!"

  Director Wang smiled, and then said: "I came to you, mainly to discuss something with you."

  The flamingo cartoon has been changed to 16:9!

  They also enabled professional high-definition broadcast control equipment, and changed the original "standard definition" channel to a "high definition" channel.

   But here comes the problem...

  It is easy to change the screen ratio from SD to HD, but after the modification, I found that the old animations and programs broadcast by myself are not suitable for the current version.

  Director Wang wants to solve this problem.

  So after discussing with the leaders of Taili, he decided to ask Wanbao Animation for help, hoping to remake the original 4:3 SD animation into a 16:9 HD version.

  The main purpose is to enhance the picture quality, details and clarity of the old animation, so that children can see the changes in the flamingo cartoon.

   "Remastered in HD?"

  Gu Miao scratched her head and said, "Which animation do you want us to remake, it won't be "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf"?"

   "That's right, it's Pleasant Goat."

  Director Wang's expression twitched and said: "I didn't think so before, but after upgrading the high-definition broadcast control equipment, I suddenly discovered the first 100 episodes of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf"..."

   That's a hot eye!

  Director Wang himself couldn’t stand it anymore. He felt that the picture quality was too abstract, so he went to Wanbao, hoping to release a “remake”.

  The animation "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is very popular with the audience. Even after seven or even eight rounds of rebroadcasts, the ratings are still among the best.

  Under this premise...

   It is necessary to produce a high-definition remake, and it is also in the interests of TV stations and animation companies.

  Gu Miao could understand his thoughts.

  To be honest, the first 100 episodes of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", let alone Director Wang, couldn't stand it, even the director shook his head after watching it.

   It really stinks!

   It must be a good thing if it can be remade.

  But the remake will face two problems. To enhance the clarity of the picture quality, do you need to change the plot? Moreover, the remake also needs manpower. Can Wanbao Animation really draw so many people?

   "The remake cannot only enhance the picture quality and clarity. Some small loopholes in the plot, including the lack of details, also need to be made up..."

  Gu Miao frowned and thought: "If you change the plot, you have to change the dubbing accordingly. This is a lot of work! Wanbao Animation may find it difficult to find enough manpower."

   "Then recruit people!"

  Taiwan Master Wang waved his hand and said without hesitation: ""Sailor Moon" reached the top in 36 countries, and Wanbao Group ranked 38th in the Jiangchuan Top 500. You won't tell me that I have no money to recruit people?"

  Gu Miao: "..."

  This can also disgust him?

   And what the **** is this Jiangchuan Top 500? Why can't Wanbao Group even enter the top 10? Does Jiangchuan have so many big companies?

   "Oh! This is my bullshit!"

  Taiwan Director Wang explained with a smile: "However, the ranking should not be too different. After all, there are many large companies in Jiangchuan, and you Wanbao is really not ranked high."

"I can only say…"

  Gu Miao took a deep breath, and finally said bitterly: "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor!"

   Special period, pay attention to protection!
