From White Box To Supervision

"Supervisor Beichuan, I have already explained all the music companies you asked me to contact. It will take some time for the specific music production."

"Okay, thank you Mr. Fujita."

"It's alright, but..." Fujita Yuto hesitated for a moment, then said, "Supervisor Beichuan, can't we use the previous music from the first season? After all, it saves money."

..

Zhang Beichuan said: "Well, I don't think it's suitable. I need a more flamboyant song suitable for the climax."

It stands to reason that some people feel that this kind of request has to be given up, and it is impossible to agree to the supervisor's request for additional fees, but I don't know why Fujita Yuto finally agreed.

He couldn't tell how he felt, anyway, he agreed so vaguely.

At present, the sixth chapter of "The Devil's Story" has officially started production.

When he saw the storyboard and the request, Lu Shi was extremely excited. Zhang Beichuan knew that she was an extreme lover of this style, so he was naturally excited to see the familiar style, and even told Zhang Beichuan that this style was too much. not enough.

In the seventh chapter of "The Story of the Demon King in Another World", the main original artist is Miss Tanigawa Junko. Zhang Beichuan plans to make a joke about this sentence. He plans to imitate Jingani in the style of this sentence.

Jing Ani's most reminiscent style is the famous Kyoto face, but it is a taboo to change the character rashly, and people who are finally familiar to the audience will also be unfamiliar, but Jing Ani, except Jing A's face, is always cute. It is very awesome, and the depiction of the background and the delicate style of painting have their own characteristics.

Some people will think that Jingani's style of painting is somewhat similar to that of Makoto Shinkai, but there is still no way for the two to compare, they both have their own characteristics and are not exactly the same.

This point was handed over to Miss Tanigawa Junko, who used to work in Jingani. In Zhang Beichuan's group, he also specifically asked Yamada Naoko if he was interested.

She herself also expressed interest. Yamada Naoko is currently far away from Kyoto and is currently responsible for the performance of "Lucky Star" without supervision, so she is very interested in Zhang Beichuan's proposal.

"You hand over the script to me, how about I take charge of the storytelling of this episode? But I can only do the storytelling work, and there is nothing else I can do."

"That would be great." Zhang Beichuan said with great joy.

He hurriedly sent the script out, and within a week, the storyboard of this story was uploaded from the Internet. As for the cost, Yamada Naoko did not choose to ask for it, which made Zhang Beichuan a little apologetic.

He decided to pay her back if he had a chance next time.

......

As a supervisor, Zhang Beichuan is now also taking part in the work of the original artist. It's nothing but the fact that painting is really not enough.

The original painting is the key, and he doesn't plan to save money.

Later, Zhang Beichuan will definitely consider looking for a freelance original artist, but he will definitely look for someone he is familiar with, needless to say.

He does not plan to outsource, nor does he outsource when he is busy, because at present, Zhang Beichuan has no trusted outsourcing company in his hands.

Those reputable outsourcing companies are more expensive. As for finding a newly established outsourcing company, it is really a gamble. Who knows how strong the outsourcing company is?

The animation industry is not the same as Tuoshi. Although in Zhang Beichuan's eyes, no matter how bad it is, it will not be as bad as the first six episodes, but what if it really exists? Can it be repaired.

I can't really guarantee this.

Of course, it’s not that all are bad. Jingani started out as an outsourcer, and when the also very famous Bone Club was established, Risheng Club has been helping it. Before the Bone Club produced its first TV animation, the outsourced The work has always been outsourced by the Risheng Club to the Bones Club, and it is considered a big boss.

But what is interesting is that Nan Masahiko, the president of the Bone Club, was in Risheng Club before. When he left, he took away all the core members of the most powerful second studio and established the Bone Club.

Having said that, the Risheng Club did not turn against the Bones Club, but tried to help. At that time, the upload on the Internet was really not small.

The sixth episode of "The Story of the Devil in Another World" is currently being produced. Although it is the sixth episode, it is only the first episode produced by Qingtian Studio. Except for the mess that was inherited earlier, the previous company basically left nothing.

The storyboard and layout of the seventh episode have been prepared, and Zhang Beichuan has also begun to draw the storyboard for the eighth chapter, and the eighth chapter is the battle plot. This aspect needs to be carefully thought out.

......

In the morning, Zhang Beichuan got up from the bed, went out for a run as usual, and then finished the loving breakfast prepared by Miyamori Aoi together.

After resting for a while, the two got on the tram early to head to the studio.

Sunny Studio is located in the farthest part of Tokyo, so it is a long way to go by train.

Then came the busy production process.

Time passed, and then it was after twelve o'clock noon. Zhang Beichuan then got a card number in his hand, folded it according to the number, and then threw it in the clip, picked up another bag of card numbers, just = opened and opened, Then, the phone rang.

It was Isato Fujita who called, and Zhang Beichuan kept his phone number.

"It should be the music thing that I explained earlier." He muttered to himself casually and connected the phone.

"Supervisor Beichuan, hello."

"Editor-in-chief Fujita, hello, is the music thing finished?" Zhang Beichuan asked.

"I'm not in a hurry, I'll talk about the individual first. It's like this, that... There is something to inform you, and you need to be prepared." Fujita Yuto's voice was very humble.

"you say."

"Well, it was only in July when the film was originally submitted."

"right."

Currently in April, there are three months before the delivery of the finished product, so there is plenty of time.

"That's it, on the committee's side, the time has been changed to finish production before June."

"Two months?" Zhang Beichuan frowned slightly.

"Yes, Director Beichuan, as you know, this project has been going on for a long time, and there are people on our side who can't wait."

"Six words, two months, it's really a little tight."

TV animation is different from long-form animation, One Piece, Naruto, etc. The background characters and settings are almost ready, and the storyboards of each episode will also be prepared in advance, so only the original artist needs to complete the drawing, and then the middle The post-cutting period and the like are very skilled, and there are various outsourcing of the apportionment, which can barely do one episode a week.

But even so, there will be a lot of time when the production schedule cannot be kept up. What should we do? Each company has its own way of ending, the most typical ones are Toei's One Piece and Joker Club's Hokage.

Aunt Toei's solution is to pour water.

An animation like One Piece has one episode a week. It takes nearly ten minutes for the title and last episode review alone, plus the ED at the end of the episode, the plot is 20 minutes long and burns high incense.

The plot accumulated in one year is not as much as the plot given in the 12 episodes of the TV version~www.wuxiamtl.com~ In order to prolong the time, the plot of Luffy's fight is twists and turns, the fight is very hard, and the enemy is solved with one punch in the comics The animation was played for two episodes, which caused the collapse of the combat power, so the reputation was so bad, and the battle plot was rarely outstanding.

The Clown Club's method is - Memories!

All kinds of memories drag on for a long time, recalling dozens of episodes. Fortunately, the clown club usually recalls dozens of episodes for a plot full of dry goods, as well as conscience full of dramas.

Compared with water injection, Zhang Beichuan is more inclined to the clown club, because the garbage recalls dozens of episodes, and it is good to save an episode full of dry goods. You can use the funds when you save up to a critical time, which is to rob a bank (one stem).

As for Toei, it's really frustrating to pour water into it.

The animation production cycle of the TV version is generally half a year or even a year. Although Qingtian Studio is only responsible for six episodes, it is still quite tense for two months.

"Is there no way to change it?" Zhang Beichuan asked.

"I can't help it either." Fujita Yuto sighed, he really couldn't help it, and he had already tried his best, but that's the reality.

"The committee also made up its mind after careful consideration. It's not that it is estimated to make things difficult for you, Supervisor Beichuan. There are a lot of famous new shows in July. We are also afraid that the popularity is not enough, so we chose June."

Zhang Beichuan knew what they were thinking.

January, April, July, October.

This is roughly the broadcast time of the new episodes in District 11. The Metropolis will be broadcasting in it, because it happens to be in a production cycle, and after one episode is over, the next episode will be linked.

But it's not that there are no new episodes outside of these four months.

The committee chose June also considering that there are not many good opponents in June, and it can be considered well-intentioned.
