The Strongest Animator [Rebirth]

"Warm and healing? Are you sure it's not warm and depressing?"

"I didn't panic at first. I heard Xing Xing say this, but now I panic a lot. Can anyone provide me with Huaying's address so that I can calm down? Xing Xing has worked too hard to do animation, and I want to come to express condolences in person!"

"Let's leave, let's leave, the dog thieves have said so, All Might is probably cold."

This is a fan who sees through the essence at a glance and is unmoved.

The amazing thing is that in the comments under Weibo at this moment, there are not a few people who are on the side of Musuxing. Combining with Musuxing's past experience, the young people seem to be convinced by Musuxing's words, and they all I agree with what the Shepherd Star said:

"I think there is nothing wrong with this kind of statement. Is "The Little Prince" not healing enough, or "The Superpower of Love" is not healing enough? Although "My Hero Academia" has a bit of abuse in the front, the overall tone is also very positive. Said Xing Xing is taking the warm and healing route, there is no problem with this statement."

"Am I the only one who really thinks that the stars are the warm and healing wind that walks away? When I first watched "The Little Prince", I felt that the person who can make this kind of picture must be a very gentle person. It was also the same in the previous harem manga, maybe I'm a girl, and I think this ending is also very healing, the hero's fate is entirely his own fault."

One of the innocent and lovely girls even vowed: "I will always support the stars!"

These fans would never have imagined that the "gentle" shepherd star in their mouth would make several frenzied and inhumane animations in the future, which opened the door to their new world and led them to complete the process of growing from cute to cute. Transformation from new to indifferent old driver...

Of course, this is a story.

At this moment.

Mu Suxing looked at the voices of those on his Weibo who tried their best to speak for him, and immediately felt very relieved: "It seems that not everyone is so blind."

Since fans support him so much, how can he disappoint his own fans?

Thinking of this, Mu Suxing thought for a while, and then happily pulled out the second plan: "Well... "Magic Girl Madoka" will wait until the market is full of animations with magical girl themes, and fans will be interested in such themes. Take it out when you’re bored, and give them a brand new surprise!”

These days, there aren't many animation directors who think about the audience like him, right?

At [-]:[-] p.m., in Huaying Animation Conference Room, senior management from various departments gathered together.

Du Yutang, the assistant of Star Musu, is in charge of distributing the animation planning of "Cardcaptor Sakura".The animation company is divided into two versions, one is based on the main plot of "Cardcaptor Sakura", and also includes the overall style and main selling points of the animation; the other is a profit plan distributed to the peripheral development department.

Several screenwriters focused on the animation script part of the plan.

Ruan Wei, who was in charge of the development of derivative products, tapped the paper with her fingertips rhythmically, with a thoughtful look on her face.

"awesome!"

The sudden voice immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the conference room. Seeing that almost everyone's eyes fell on him, the young screenwriter woke up like a dream, and hurriedly stood up and bowed to apologize: "Sorry, this comic script is too complicated. Excellent, I couldn't hold back for a while..."

Mu Suxing waved his hand, and said indifferently: "The planning book was originally brought out to discuss together. If you have any ideas, you can also express them now and discuss them together."

"I also think the script of this manga is very good," another animation screenwriter took over, and she commented: "The plot is simple and clear, and it creates a very simple and gentle world. It cannot be more suitable as a TV animation——"

"Although it is said to be a child supply, it actually taught us a lot of things subtly. The plot is not naive at all. Not only is it for the younger age market, I believe that even fans before Huaying will be attracted by this animation!"

"I feel that everyone in the animation is very gentle!"

"I like this heroine, she is very cute, she will put herself in the father's place, and will not shirk responsibility. If it is made into an animation, it will have a subtle educational impact on children. I think it is great!"

All of a sudden, in the conference room, discussions about "Cardcaptor Sakura" were endless.

Obviously, everyone is full of expectations for "Cardcaptor Sakura".

"The development of the plot of this animation is relatively simple, but I believe you can see that the relationship between its characters is actually a bit complicated," Mu Su Xing said here, and the employees below also smiled knowingly: "How? While ensuring that the progress of each episode is simple and easy to understand, at the same time, simplifying the relationship between the characters, this is the focus of your script team's next work."

……

With the successful completion of the animation plan of "Cardcaptor Sakura", "Maggie's Gift" is basically completed. After sending the final product to Professor Li, Musuxing brought the original manga of "Cardcaptor Sakura" back to the Arrived at the script group of shadow animation.

Just like Muju Xing said in the conference room, the main plot of this manga is actually very simple. It tells the story of the heroine Kinomoto Sakura recovering the Clow cards one by one.

In contrast, the emotional line of the story is a little more complicated. How to ensure the overall quality and excitement of the animation without causing obstacles to the audience's understanding is the most important thing to be solved at the text script stage.

In addition, there is a problem of production speed.

Different from online animation that broadcasts one episode per week, the frequency of TV animation is one episode per day, and some animations even have two episodes per day. Not only that, because before the animation is officially on the TV station, it needs to pass the assessment of relevant departments Therefore, "Magic Card Girl Sakura" cannot be broadcast in the same way as "My Hero Academia".

As a result, the overall progress of the company has been somewhat delayed.

He originally planned to start producing "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" during the broadcast of "Cardcaptor Sakura", but in order to maximize the final effect of the animation, Shepherd Xing decided to postpone the launch of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" , then during this period, he must consider making another animation.

what to do?

While Mu Su Xing was looking for a suitable animation script for his blank period, Li Lianggong also received a video attachment named "Maggie's Gift" in the mailbox in the professor's office of Xingning University of the Arts.

"The level of this year's graduates is still not good enough," Ji Xinrong shook his head in disappointment: "The script is fairly passable, and the performance is either too monotonous or lacks innovation. A few of them look technically good, but it's a pity that they are full of talent." The brains are all about showing off skills, and the plot is too empty to compete with their brains—"

Professor Li smiled lightly.

It is said that he is the most demanding professor in the Animation Department of Xingning University of the Arts, but if Li Lianggong really had to say it, his old friend is really harsh and stubborn. Hearing his unceremonious comments now, Li Lianggong also Just laughing: "For an animator of this age, they've actually done a pretty good job."

Ji Xinrong blew his beard and stared: "At this level, it's not bad? In my opinion, it's not as good as that..." He opened his mouth, and almost came out of a certain name, but when he came to his mouth, he suddenly realized, At any rate, he stopped talking, so he snorted vaguely and stopped talking.

There was no change on Li Lianggong's face, but he felt a little funny in his heart.

He also knows something about Ji Xinrong and Mu Su Xing. It can only be said that Ji Xinrong is used to being strong and too stubborn. He has always looked down on those animations that cater to the market and have a flamboyant style. The priests also have noses that are not noses, and eyes that are not eyes.

His contempt for "IS" is true, and his love for "The Little Prince" is also from the heart.

Li Lianggong knew this clearly, but he didn't point it out—according to his old friend's character, he really wanted to say it, and Ji Xinrong was afraid that something might happen and he would turn around and leave immediately.

He shook his head, and turned his gaze to the next animation attachment in the mailbox.

"The Gift of the Magi" - Shepherd Star.

Of course, Ji Xinrong did not miss this "acquaintance" work.

Li Lianggong's mouse has already clicked on the video, and it hasn't started to play here, but Ji Xinrong has already started to add drama to himself: "I have done so many commercial animations one after another, I want to see how far he has regressed now It's gone." While speaking, he glanced at his friend, as if explaining the reason why he stayed here and refused to move.

Li Lianggong: ...

Li Lianggong didn't bother to talk to him. On the computer, "Maggie's Gift" had already started playing. Ji Xinrong's attention was immediately attracted by the short animation in front of him, and he subconsciously merged into the short animation in front of him.

The total duration of the entire video is less than 5 minutes.

Five minutes later, the finished video suddenly fell into darkness. Li Lianggong looked at the animation in front of him, but the scene he had just seen appeared in his mind. , the original dark screen was once again replaced by the beginning of "The Gift of the Magi".

once.

Five times.

ten times.

Ji Xinrong's gaze was firmly fixed on the computer screen in front of him. He had no expression on his face, as if he was possessed by a demon. He just watched "Maggie's Gift" back and forth ten times.

He didn't speak.

Neither did Li Lianggong.

When he first mentioned the competition to the Shepherd Star, he just said in passing that Eleanor's best animated short film is not a pheasant award after all. Once there, how can he compete with other animation producers who have been preparing for several years?

but……

Li Lianggong took a deep breath, and his eyes fell on the animation in front of him again. Even though he was used to being calm, his heart couldn't help beating at this moment——

Winning an award may be unlikely, but judging by the quality of this animated short, maybe at least one nomination can be won?

As animation No. 12 played on the computer screen ended, Ji Xinrong snorted heavily, his face smelled as if someone owed millions: "I am willing to fall!" After leaving these words, he turned around and left .

1 minute later.

Ji Xinrong pushed the door open again and walked in aggressively, saying vaguely, "Send me a copy of the video."

Li Lianggong: "?"

Ji Xinrong didn't change his face: "Twelve times is not enough, I have to go back and watch it a few more times, so that I can better analyze where he has regressed."
