My Animation Era

  Chapter 655 Galaxy Battleship (for subscription)

  The "Super Beast Armed" project team didn't have many people at first, only Dimension Studio participated in the production.

   This is Huang Kun's arrangement.

  In his words, since "Super Beast Armed Forces" is a 3D animation, let Dimension Studio, which focuses on 3D, do it, and other studios don't have to intervene.

  The idea is correct, but in the process of implementation, there are still problems.

   Not enough screenwriters!

  The essence of Super Beast Armed is undoubtedly the plot and lines. And the manpower required for this part cannot be satisfied by Dimension Studio at all.

   For this reason, after consulting the opinions of most people, Huang Kun urgently seconded a number of key screenwriters from other studios to join the animation "Super Beast Armed" production team.

   Now it's "Galaxy Battleship"!

  The screenwriter team of the animation "Super Beast Armed Forces" can be regarded as the most luxurious and largest all-star lineup since the establishment of Wanbao Animation.

  The leaders are Huang Kun and Gu Miao.

   Then there is a long list of ultra-luxury screenwriters consisting of more than 20 people. This long list of screenwriter names may scare many people when the subtitles at the end of the cartoon are displayed.

   It's numb!

  With so many screenwriters, what exactly is Wanbao going to do? One person writes one episode or one person writes one line?

   "Sounds outrageous..."

   "However, there is a reason for the establishment of this luxurious screenwriting team." Gu Miao told his apprentice Science Popularization, "When writing the script of the animation "Super Beast Armed Forces", we adopted the method of connecting multiple characters and lines in series."

"What's the meaning?"

  Guo Hongwei didn't understand very well, what is multi-role and multi-line connection?

   "It means that the screenwriters are all assigned their own roles. For example, screenwriter A is in charge of Huo Linfei, screenwriter B is in charge of Long Jian, and screenwriter C is in charge of Slim Jun..."

  Gu Miao explained: "Suppose there is a plot where super beast warriors interact. OK! Then the screenwriters corresponding to each character will work together in series, and they will do their own work at other times."

   It is cumbersome to explain.

  But in the actual operation process, this method is actually "splitting and stripping".

  You are in charge of your part, I am in charge of mine, and then according to the needs of the director, we will cooperate to write the part of "tandem".

   "I roughly understand."

  Guo Hongwei asked thoughtfully: "But what's the use of such a distribution with so many people participating?"

   Waste of manpower?

   This is embarrassing to say, but after listening to the master's description, he really felt that it was a bit unnecessary to "take off his pants and fart".

   Obviously three or four screenwriters can solve the problem with the cooperation, but you have to gather more than 20 people. Do you think this is a dungeon to start a group to fight the boss?

   "There's a benefit to doing this!"

  Gu Miao knew what the apprentice wanted to say, and said with a smile: "You think it is a waste of manpower, but Huang Kun and I feel that doing so can ensure that the human setup will not collapse to the greatest extent."

   Three or four screenwriters are enough?

   There is nothing wrong with this statement, indeed three or four screenwriters are enough. After all, there were only three screenwriters in the animation of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" with more than 500 episodes.

  But that is a unit animation drama!

  Long-form continuous cartoons like "Super Beast Armed Forces", especially cartoons with "plot characters" as the core selling point, cannot do this.

  “A screenwriter writes a part, and then stitches it together. A screenwriter writes a character, and then connects the plot line with other characters.”

  Gu Miao asked: "These two methods, at first glance, the latter is time-consuming and labor-intensive, while the former saves time and manpower."

   "However, in the former method, there is often the problem of broken characters, because different screenwriters have different understandings of the same character."

  Shakespeare said that there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers.

   There is also a widely spread old saying in Huaguo, the benevolent sees benevolence, and the wise sees wisdom!

  The same fictional character has different images in the minds of different screenwriters.

   Anime circles often say "screenwriter's backstab"!

  The idea of ​​the screenwriter’s backstab comes from this. Screenwriter A thinks that the protagonist should be a very gentle and considerate person, and he should be very kind in his actions.

  But after changing to a new screenwriter B, screenwriter B felt that as a savior, he should put his family, country and world first, and act more decisively.

  These two screenwriters, each writing an episode or a plot, what is the effect of the shooting?

  The character setting collapsed and the plot split.

   It is precisely because "Super Beast Armed Forces" is an animation that focuses on plot and people. In order to avoid similar situations, a screenwriter is assigned to each character.

   "So that's it, I've been taught."

   After listening to these words, Guo Hongwei finally understood that "Super Beast Armed Forces" will have more than 20 screenwriters.

   "Then I filmed the second season of "Those Things That Rabbit That Year", can I also form a luxurious screenwriting team?"

   "No, no!"

  Gu Miao resolutely vetoed it: "Although the rabbit is also an animation that focuses on the plot, but the human design part, I really don't have to worry about it will collapse."

   It comes down to it.

  Natu is not a "continuous animation drama" in the traditional sense, but a "unit animation drama" similar to Pleasant Goat.

  Each episode is a brand new story, where is the saying that the character design is broken?

   Of course, this is not the main reason.

   Even if the rabbit is not a serial animation, there is no need to worry about the character design, in fact, this method can also be used.

  The main reason for Gu Miao's refusal was that Wanbao Animation really couldn't squeeze out so many screenwriters.

   Galacticos, right?

  The star screenwriter is not a Chinese cabbage, how can it be so easy to gather a second screenwriter team of the same level?

"Ok…"

  After the dream of forming the Galaxy Battleship was shattered, Guo Hongwei said with a little regret: "Then master, as the captain of the Galaxy Battleship, can you give us some advice on the second season of the rabbit?"

  Stop serving tea and pouring water all day long!

  He is a scout, Gu Sanshui is good, he directly becomes a "tea pouring soldier".

  As the honorary assistant director of the second season of Natu, Guo Hongwei couldn't stand seeing that the production of the second season of the animation was almost finished, and he was still paddling.

   Don't expect him to do any dirty work, but it's always okay to give advice, right?

   "Suggestion?"

  Gu Miao scratched her ass, tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "Everything is quite normal, if there is something wrong, it should be the time when I was a guest at Ying's house..."

"Oh?"

  Hearing this, Guo Hongwei immediately became interested, and quickly ran to the computer, opened the previously made animation material and carefully observed it.

   "Look here..."

  Gu Miao pressed the space bar to pause the clip that was being broadcast, then pointed to the screen and said, "The contrast is not strong enough! The audience may have thought that the Eagle Sauce that year was nothing more than that!"

  But the truth is...

  The eagle sauce that year, compared to the poor rabbit, was indeed rich and powerful.
