My Animation Era

  Chapter 645 Mechs are prettier than characters? (seeking subscription)

  The second season of Natu has 24 episodes.

  Originally there were only 12 episodes, the same number as the first season. But the TV station said that 12 episodes are too few to show, and hope to increase it a little bit.

   This is easy to understand.

   After all, the second season of "Things About That Rabbit That Year" is an animation broadcast on the TV platform. If there are only 12 episodes, I am afraid that it will be gone in less than a week.

Therefore.

  After repeated research by the production team, it was finally decided to extend the script of the second season of the animation, expanding the feature film from 12 episodes to 24 episodes.

   This is actually a good thing.

  Because the previous episode was split into two episodes, first of all, the duration is more abundant, and the story can be told more completely.

  Is there a shortcoming...

   If there are any shortcomings, it is probably that this season's "Things About That Rabbit That Year" is not so funny.

  The lines have reduced the occurrence frequency of many "Internet catchphrases", and there is no special character "Nasper" in the plot.

  How should I say it?

   This season of Natu animation produced by Guo Hongwei focuses more on how to tell the story well. All the lines, characters and backgrounds are for the plot.

   Everything that has nothing to do with the plot of the animation has been deleted from the main film.

   “Tell a story, tell a good story.”

  Guo Hongwei explained: "I don't deny that the use of some Internet buzzwords and popular stalks can make animation more funny and interesting."

   "But it ruins the vibe!"

  The sense of atmosphere and sense of substitution are very important. Blindly piling up rotten memes on the Internet, the final effect can only be disgusted like a Spring Festival Gala sketch.

  He was right.

  Gu Miao agreed with Guo Hongwei's theory, and expressed support for reducing the implantation of various Internet buzzwords in the second season of "Those Things That Rabbit That Year".

   Of course, support belongs to support.

  Natu is an animation born out of the "military fans" group after all. Some insiders who can make military fans smile knowingly can still be played.

   Don’t forget your roots!

   You can’t abandon the military fans who originally supported this animation because the rabbit animation became popular and its influence broke the circle, right?

  That would be too supercilious...

  Through a comprehensive inspection of the production team, Gu Miao was very satisfied with the results of his apprentice Guo Hongwei's work, and encouraged everyone to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and calm down to polish the work seriously.

  Although The Rabbit is an animation that does not make money, almost all the proceeds from Wanbao are donated.

   But...

  For Wanbao Animation, and even the entire Wanbao Group, the animation "Things About That Rabbit That Year" is a "significant" work.

  This meaning has nothing to do with money, but more of a sense of spiritual satisfaction and achievement, as well as praise and praise from people from all walks of life.

   To put it bluntly, this is face!

   Making such an animation may not necessarily make Wanbao a lot of money, but it will definitely improve Wanbao's evaluation in the eyes of ordinary audiences.

  So Gu Miao attaches great importance to it.

  …

  The production progress of the second season of the animation "Things About That Rabbit That Year" is quite good, but in the dimension studio on the other side, the situation is not good.

  The "Super Beast Armed" project encountered a serious "rollover" incident before it even started sailing.

  The 3D modeling team responsible for the design of super beast warriors and super beast armed forms received sharp comments from director Huang Kun when they submitted the first version of 3D modeling at the production meeting.

   "Your robot and mech armor are so handsome and cool, why is the character model so rough and ugly?"

  Armored mechs look better than characters?

  After Huang Kun pointed out the problem, the entire Dimension Studio fell into deep thought, and no one spoke for nearly ten minutes to refute.

   Hard-spoken?

   There is no way to be stubborn!

   After all, the modeling is here, as long as the eyes are not blind, you can see that the character model is indeed too rough compared to the mechanical mecha part.

   This is a long-standing problem of Dimension Studios. From the beginning of "Pigman" to the present, there has been no progress.

  Why didn't anyone mention it before?

  Because of the previous 3D animation, there were very few human protagonists. Characters like Pigman and the Jelly Three Musketeers are not human either!

  Further back, in 3D animations such as "The Devil Soldier of Maoer Mountain", the characters are all "comedy" dolls with big heads and short stature, and there is no effect.

   As a result, something bad happened to "Super Beast Armed Forces"!

  The characters armed with super beasts are all humanoid creatures with correct body proportions, not jelly people, nor pig-headed people...

  Under this premise.

  Dimension Studio’s lack of experience in character models and the disadvantages of technical accumulation were immediately exposed.

  It’s okay if there is no comparison. If there is no modeling reference, it’s okay to have a rough character model. Anyway, I don’t feel deeply.

  But everything is afraid of comparison...

In the first version of 3D modeling provided by the modeling team, Huang Kun can intuitively feel that the modeling of mechanical mechs such as the Magic Lin Armor, Magic Lin Beast, and Magic Lin God are much more refined and beautiful than character modeling .

   "This won't work, take it back and modify it."

   As the chief director of the project team, Huang Kun is responsible for the quality of the work.

  He is very satisfied with the mechanical armor part. Whether it is a single super beast form or a super beast **** combined form, they are all so handsome that they have no friends.

  But the character models of Huo Linfei, Tian Yu, Long Jian and other characters, he feels that they are not suitable for the super beast armed form, which is a bit behind...

   What is this?

  The armor modeling is so cool and handsome, why is the character model so stretched?

   What a shame!

   It is also a domestic 3D animation, and Huang Kun has never seen rougher character modeling than this. Dimension Studio's performance disappointed him too much.

   "It's like this with no experience..."

   Gu Miao, who came here after hearing the news, explained with a smile: "I don't think it's shameful to have shortcomings, as long as you are willing to make progress and make up for your shortcomings slowly."

   "Don't be too angry, give them a little more time, I believe they will hand in an answer that satisfies you!"

   "I know, but I'm in a hurry!"

  Huang Kun said with a bitter face: "All the preparations have been done, but the result is stuck in the character modeling. I have never been so speechless in my life."

   That's really speechless.

  To be honest, when Gu Miao learned about this matter, she behaved similarly to Huang Kun.

  Dimension Studio!

  Wanbao Animation’s Ace Studio, one of the giants in the domestic 3D animation field, has such obvious shortcomings that it can’t even do a good job in modeling “humanoid creatures”?

   At first he didn't believe it.

   He even wondered if Huang Kun's vision was too high? Obviously modeling is okay, but it must be said that it is too rough to use?

  But when he saw the 3D modeling of the first version of Huo Linfei, Long Jian and other characters, he also fell silent.

  This thing is really fun...

   It’s not that it’s not good or can’t be used, it’s just that these character models are too low-grade compared to the handsome and cool mecha armor in the animation.

   Make an analogy.

  Assuming that the 3D modeling of the Super Beast Armor belongs to "extreme color", then the 3D character modeling of the Super Beast Warriors belongs to "simple lines", which is completely different from the same animation.
