Best wishes for animation production - #532 - Chapter 528 A peaceful smile
Gu Xue will also pay attention to the internal matter of Misawa Hiroshi’s ambition.
Gu Xue had never paid attention to the discussions outside and didn’t care.
She is very resolute. Almost as soon as she decided to make “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”, she began to write a project book and determine the character design, painting style and art style.
“Puella Magi Madoka Magica” is not easy to make. Let’s just say that the settings and designs of the witches in it, as well as the way they appear and the way they are presented are very special.
Through exaggerated and abstract deformation, a strange and terrifying visual experience is created. At the same time, the scene construction gives people a fairy tale-like feeling, which is very magical.
This technique is called collage. At that time, the person responsible for the application of this technique was not the production team within the animation production company Shaft, but was specially asked to be in charge of the drama group イヌカレー.
This technique has actually been used in works such as “Tengen Breakthrough”, “Goodbye Mr. Despair”, “Bakemonogatari” and “Xiang Yang Sketch”. This is why some places in the first season of “Bakemonogatari” are particularly weird.
In the above works, this technique has not yet taken a dominant position. It is at most the finishing touch. In “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”, the visual art of collage is used throughout and is considered the core concept.
It is really difficult to create a visual art that does not exist in this world and to instill it in the production staff.
However, “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” has changed its visual art and lost its internal flavor. The shock and aftertaste brought by the plot will be much less, and the overall effect will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, Gu Xue has always been reluctant to touch “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” because it is really too troublesome.
It is easy for a blind chicken to imitate a tiger but not a dog.
The reason why she was willing to do it this time was because she had deceived the big guys… These old gangsters were still very powerful and should be able to help a lot, which gave Gu Xue confidence.
In addition, the studio really needs a dessert-level TV animation that is exciting enough. There is no need to think about the half-year series. Although Gu Xue has thought of a lot of excellent quarterly series, after thinking about it, “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” is the most popular. The other excellent seasons are still barely interesting.
Of course, there is another most important reason, that is, she wants to give it a try. In life, she always wants to do exciting things.
As things stand, the preliminary work on “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” is going pretty smoothly.
Since that meeting, Gu Xue has been working non-stop to make a planning document, as well as drawing related setting diagrams and concept diagrams. After a few days of preparation, she showed it to the big guys. While showing it to them, she also Discussed it with them.
And those big guys did not disappoint Gu Xue. They were very powerful. Not only could they keep up with Gu Xue’s ideas, they could even draw inferences from one example. In the days before the YUKI studio announcement was sent out, Gu Xue slowly conveyed what he wanted. Collage that knows, and so far, the big guys can roughly draw that kind of visual art!
This made Gu Xue look at him with admiration again.
Even yesterday, Gu Xue showed the storyboards and scripts of the first three episodes of “Puella Magi Madoka Magica” to the members of the painting team and the big guys. After seeing it, the big guys calmed down quickly and continued to discuss with her. Gu Xue admired this very much. He was worthy of being a senior who had seen strong winds and waves…
As for the rest of the group…well, Greek milk~
…
“Chisa.”
Today is still a busy day at YUKI Studio.
Miya Wenhui came out of Gu Xue’s office, looked around, and stopped Chisa Mihara, who was holding the information that Gu Xue painstakingly drew and was about to return to her seat.
“Sister Miyamoto…”
When Chisa Mihara heard someone calling her, she turned around and found that it was Miyamoto Hui. She immediately stopped and bent towards her meticulously while holding the information.
Although Gong Wenhui fell in love with Wu Jiwu because of Gu Xue, and she no longer blames her, she still feels guilty when facing Gong Wenhui.
Gong Wenhui waved her hand and asked: “Where is Gu Xue? She is not in the office. Have you seen her? Where has she gone?”
“If you’re not in the office, you should be with Mr. Jinyu Ando and the others…” Chisa Mihara looked towards the direction where the painting group was. Halfway through her words, she got stuck because Gu Xue was not there.
In the painting group, there was only a group of old men sitting together, holding scripts and concept drawings, with faces full of excitement and discussing something with great interest.
“Are you discussing a new project?” Miyamoto Wenhui followed Mihara Chisa’s gaze and saw this scene. She was a little interested, so she temporarily put aside the matter of looking for Gu Xue and asked Mihara Chisa.
“Yes.” Chisa Mihara nodded.
“New project “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”?”
“Um.”
Gong Wenhui was a little in disbelief: “What they are holding are the scripts written by Gu Xue and the pictures they drew, right? They look so excited. Does the name Gu Xue have any magic power? Even the subject of magical girls can It’s outrageous to have these seniors willingly stay and discuss it with excitement.”
Chisaru Mihara smiled slightly, feeling a little proud unconsciously: “Xiao…Ayue is very good, Mr. Jinyu Ando and the others have been like this since yesterday, while muttering “This is completely subversive”, “Creating a new visual art” Genre”, while discussing. Ashue said that they are just like children getting a new toy now. They are definitely excited and happy, and they will calm down after a few days.”
“Oh?” Miyamoto Hui glanced at Mihara Chisa’s profile and smiled, “Subversion? New genre? Originally I was a little disappointed when I saw the title “Puella Magi Madoka Magica”, but now I’m looking forward to Gu It’s rare for Xue’s new project to make those seniors so excited.”
“Yes!” Chisa Mihara nodded vigorously.
“but……”
Gong Wenhui suddenly changed the subject, looked at the other members of the painting group sitting next to the bosses, and asked: “Gu Xue said that the seniors are like children getting new toys, so they will be happy and excited, then she Have you ever told you…what’s going on with those people?”
Gong Wenhui pointed to the people sitting next to the bosses. There, several animators who belonged to the same group also held scripts and related concept drawings. However, they did not participate in the discussion. Instead, they raised their heads slightly and looked at the ceiling. A look of despair and doubt about life…
“…”
Chisa Mihara followed Miyamoto Hui’s finger and looked forward. After seeing the group of people, she was silent for a moment and said: “This… Gu Xue said that they seemed to have obtained a coffin, so they revealed their resting bodies. Smile…”
Gong Wenhui: “…?”
Resting smile? ? ? ?
Just when Gong Wenhui was messy in the wind.
A pleasant voice sounded from the side.
“San…Qian Sha! Don’t taint my innocence. I’m talking about An Xin! An An Xin’s smile, where is An Xin? Don’t talk nonsense.”
Gu Xue came to the two of them at some point. She held the mug and glared at Chisa Mihara, both angry and funny.
Chisa Mihara pursed her lips, and a blush appeared on her pretty face.
Gong Wenhui came back to her senses and looked at Gu Xue: “So the phrase ‘it’s like getting a coffin’ is also…”
“Oh, Qiansha is right, I said it.”
“…”
Gong Wenhui, a mature woman, stayed where she was and continued to be messy…
