My Animation Era

  Chapter 370 "Joyful Passing the Year of the Snake" (subscription required)

  Xiao Guo’s head is getting bigger.

  The animation "Legend of Seven Swords" was produced in full accordance with the "sub-supplier" animation standard, and there was only one result:

   Four different!

  The martial arts flavor is gone, and it's not as funny and nonsensical as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" or "Pigman", so it's no wonder that children will like it.

  If it is not produced according to the sub-supply standard, it will face another problem.

   Most of the audience who like this "martial arts taste" are old. And children rarely watch martial arts dramas, or martial arts animations, can they understand them?

   "I think I can understand it."

  Gu Miao pondered for a while, and finally gave her own answer: "Don't think of children as idiots, children nowadays mature prematurely."

   "If "Legend of Seven Swords" really takes the young and naive route, then I can guarantee that this animation will be completely ruined!"

  Young and childish routes cannot be taken.

  Any animation of Wanbao can follow this route, except "Legend of Seven Swords".

  He dare not imagine...

  If an animation with the theme of "Legend of Seven Swords" is produced in a young and naive style, what kind of collapse will it be?

  That must be hot eyes, right?

   If you want to do a good job in "Legend of Seven Swords", the only way is to take the 12+ route. In other words, give up a part of the "under 10" audience.

no way!

  You can’t expect a child under 10 years old to understand martial arts and understand the freedom and ease of "walking the world with a sword"?

   Of course, it is not to give up completely.

   "You can definitely make the fight more exaggerated. In this way, those children who don't understand the plot can still watch the fight!" Gu Miao suggested.

   It is not necessary to understand the plot!

  It’s like the animation of "Little Fugui, the Chef" that you often saw when you were young. How many people dare to say that they understand the plot?

   Isn’t it all about watching the excitement, seeing what dishes Xiao Fugui made today, and what monsters Lafayette made!

sometimes…

   If you can't understand the plot line or the deep meaning contained in the animation, it really doesn't have much impact. As long as other aspects are done well enough, people will still watch it.

"I understand."

  Xiao Guo nodded half-understanding, and thoughtfully said: "It means that the plot can't be too young and naive, but fighting is okay?"

   "Exactly!"

  Gu Miao smiled in relief.

  This is the solution he gave, using fighting to attract audiences under 10 years old, and using plot to retain teenagers or adult audiences over 12 years old.

   It seems very unreasonable.

   But doing so is most suitable for animations like "Legend of Seven Swords".

   Everyone should have seen "The Legend of the Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Seven Heroes". I believe everyone understands the fighting part of this animation.

  The seven swords combined...

  Be reasonable!

   This is not "martial arts" at all!

   But it is the fighting part that is not martial arts at all. After the animation was broadcast, it attracted many children who knew nothing about "martial arts".

  Because it is cool enough and exciting enough!

  …

  After imparting all her understanding of "martial arts animation" to her apprentices, Gu Miao devoted herself to the intense work of the movie "Snake Comes Around".

   Time to come to November!

  The animation "Pokemon" is still on the air. Xiao Zhi has left the Orange Islands and returned to his hometown Wanbao Town, but was defeated by Xiao Mao.

  In order to become stronger and defeat his old enemy Xiaomao, Xiaozhi decided to challenge the Pokémon Alliance in the Zhonghai area.

  A new chapter begins here.

  Having broadcast more than 100 episodes of "Pokemon", it finally came to the last stop, which can be regarded as the last stop of "Muyin Chapter".

   At the same time, "China Sea Alliance" is also the part of the entire animation with the most episodes and the longest episode, and the ending is also disgusting.

  Because, Xiao Zhi, whom we placed high hopes on, finally fell to the quarterfinals...

Ok!

  Compared to the fact that Xiaozhi is about to make a historic breakthrough from the "final sixteen" to the "final eight", Gu Miao is more concerned about the production of the theme song of the movie "Snake Comes Around".

  Film production is drawing to a close.

  As expected, at the end of November or early December, the film can be submitted for review, waiting to be queued up to receive the dragon bid.

  At this time, there was a problem in front of the film director, Gu Miao.

  What about the theme song?

  As a qualified commercial film, don’t worry about whether it sounds good or not, at least there must be a theme song to make do with it, right?

what!

   There is not even a song. Do you think this is a "silent film"? Don't be afraid of others' jokes if you spread it!

   This money cannot be saved.

  At any rate, it is the company's first film, which has the meaning of "milestone". If you are reluctant to spend this money, it is really too stingy.

   But speaking of the theme song.

  In Gu Miao's memory, it seems that in the full set of zodiac movies of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", the episode "Left Hand and Right Hand" in Year of the Tiger is relatively good.

   As for anything else...

  Honestly speaking, it's really not that good, anyway, Gu Miao thinks it's very ordinary. In order to cater to the celebration of the "Chinese New Year", many songs do not fit the plot well.

   Of course, there is nothing wrong with doing this.

   After all, it is a Lunar New Year movie, and it will be released during the Lunar New Year, so celebration must be the first element. Only on the basis of celebration can we consider whether it sounds good or not.

   "We have to be a little more festive too."

  Gu Miao exhorted: "But on the basis of festivities, it must also be combined with the plot, that is, some questions."

   Can't patronize the festival anymore.

  If this is really the case, then it’s better to play the picture of "I congratulate you on getting rich, I congratulate you on being wonderful".

  I can only say that this job is not easy.

   It must not only cater to the celebration of the Chinese New Year, but also combine the plot points of the movie, so as not to deviate. Composing music is okay, but writing lyrics is a bit difficult.

the most important is…

   Regarding the choice of the theme song, Gu Miao only now remembered it. And the movie will be released in two months, and the time left for the creation of the theme song is at most one month.

  The music team that took over this order is a company that has previously collaborated on the theme song of "Dragon Fighter".

  They are still very powerful.

  In just ten days, a song called "Joyful Over the Year of the Snake" was released.

coincidentally.

  The name of this theme song just matches the title of the original movie about the Year of the Pleasant Goat and Snake. The first time Gu Miao saw the title of the song, she almost thought that she had met a fellow "traveler".

   Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

  The same name is just a coincidence. Xiao Su, who created this song, got inspiration from the name "Pleasant Goat", and thus created the song "Joyful and Happy Year of the Snake".

"All is ready except for the opportunity!"

  The recording of the movie's theme song is over, and the subsequent editing and dubbing work is progressing in an orderly manner. Seeing that the movie is about to be released, Gu Miao suddenly feels a little nervous.

   It’s 2012…

  In this parallel world, can "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", which has created countless myths and broken countless records, create miracles again?

  The original version of the Year of the Pleasant Goat and Snake movie had a box office of 125 million, which is about the same as "Tiger and Tiger". What about the Wanbao version?

   Tips: The Year of the Snake movie is the last afterglow of the Pleasant Goat Zodiac series, and it is also the last big movie with a box office of over 100 million...
