From White Box To Supervision

Chapter 61: Train

There are still several days before going to work. After his sister left, Zhang Beichuan can calm down and complete the tasks assigned by Kinoshita Castle~www.readwn.com~ He will use the space to help at night, but during the day, he It is to prepare to draw the storyboard.

One of the tasks assigned by Kinoshita Seiichi was to find a favorite anime to draw a storyboard of no less than 50 pages. After thinking about it, he directly searched for “Spirited Away” on Google on his computer and then hit Enter.

Since you can find it by yourself, then naturally you have to find the most familiar animation, so the animation of Spirited Away’s Shenyin is the first choice.

Hayao Miyazaki directed and supervised, and he was well-known and familiar with the plot.

He wants to draw the scene at the beginning of “Spirited Away”, from the beginning of the whole film where Chihiro is lying in a car, to the scene where all parents turn into pigs.

Maybe it’s not amazing or the best in the whole chapter, but Zhang Beichuan doesn’t care. He has already planned to copy and draw the whole story of Spirited Away when he has spare time, which can be regarded as training himself.

This story has less than fifty pages of mirrors, but it doesn’t matter, just continue to draw below.

He draws very carefully and meticulously. He doesn’t just draw the plot like a stickman. Every page is very finely drawn. If it is not for the lack of color, it is probably similar to the animation.

At the same time, Zhang Beichuan was also thinking about how he would draw a storyboard if he started out as a storyboard for Spirited Away. After thinking about it, I compared it with Hayao Miyazaki’s storyboard and thought about it from the perspective of Hayao Miyazaki.

Sometimes, Zhang Beichuan will also think, if he draws the storyboard according to his own ideas, will it be better than the original version, maybe this idea is very ridiculous, but the newcomer wants to compare with a great **** like Hayao Miyazaki, Isn’t Banmen getting an axe?

But Zhang Beichuan was sure that some of the clips might be better.

Of course, Zhang Beichuan doesn’t think he is better than Hayao Miyazaki. Even, his current level of storytelling is just learning. The reason why Zhang Beichuan is so sure is because Zhang Beichuan is standing on the shoulders of giants. Qian Chihiro and Chihiro are already a finished product. Maybe you think after watching it, it’s better to split the mirror in some places, but it’s just based on the view of ‘you’ve finished watching it’.

When Hayao Miyazaki was drawing a storyboard, he was an original storyboard. It was born from scratch and modified countless times. If he re-edited the storyboard, it would definitely be far better than before.

As the most popular animation supervisor in Asia, it is impossible for Zhang Beichuan to surpass his strength.

Of course, this idea also flashed by Zhang Beichuan, but if he can really make his own animation in the future, how can he make a work similar to Spirited Away, maybe it is just empty talk now, and it is very likely that it will not be realized, after all After so many years, who can challenge Hayao Miyazaki’s status?

But who doesn’t have a dream in animation? As the saying goes, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. When making animations, it is natural to aim at the highest peak in the animation industry. Hayao Miyazaki does not say that it is the highest peak in the world, but the existing highest peak in Asia is no problem. Not sure how many people are motivated by goals.

To be honest, the speed of storyboard painting is far beyond Zhang Beichuan’s imagination. In just one afternoon, the task storyboard assigned by the supervisor was finished. The speed is like riding a rocket. If every supervisor has such a fast speed, the production management Or the show is simply happy to dance.

However, Zhang Beichuan’s speed is impossible. He still draws the storyboard according to the animation, which is not original. In short, he draws with a template. It is like a copy of a painting, but it is not original. Wait until the real original storyboard. The speed is difficult, even with the help of the script, the speed is estimated to be slow to death.

Originality is always the test of your personal level. You can see if it is a mule or a horse.

It is precisely because of this that many people are slow to die when they draw storyboards. Some of the detailed supervision of the theatrical animation takes half a year to draw the storyboard, and discuss with the script writer in detail, because the theater version is a movie after all, and the quality of the storyboard is the key, and the TV version of the storyboard is responsible for multiple people. , the supervisor is only responsible for the number of key words, which is relatively easy, but he is also very anxious when he encounters a jam. The final storyboard of Kinoshita in “EXODUS” has exceeded the time for submission of the manuscript, making the production busy. A mess.

Kinoshita asked Zhang Beichuan not only to paint, but also to have his own annotations, that is, his own understanding.

“Why do you want to draw storyboards like this, the change of turning point…” Zhang Beichuan kept writing on it with a pen, and the mouse moved the progress bar forward.

but…

Cards are going to die!

“When I get paid, I need to change a computer. It’s all stuck.”

Zhang Beichuan complained about this computer several times, it was getting worse and worse, and there were a lot of cards, but he always said that he never changed it, because he never had a salary.

After being stuck for a while, it returned to normal, and Zhang Beichuan looked again.

In two days, Zhang Beichuan has watched it over and over a hundred times, and he can remember the lines of the characters clearly.

It’s even harder than in high school!

However, the results were remarkable, and when I saw the storyboard in my hand, I was slightly overjoyed.

“It’s finally done.” Zhang Beichuan stretched his waist.

……

On the day when Zhang Beichuan finished, on the Internet, Teacher Guima’s new work “The World Only God Knows” appeared on the top of major bookstores~www.readwn.com~ as the pillar of Sifang Library, naturally Mr. Guima has a large number of fans. It has been a full year since the end of the last book, and there has been no new work. However, half a year ago, news came from the official website of Sifang Bunko that the new work is about to be released, which made many fans very excited. Excited, when I was gearing up to buy it, the news of the delayed release suddenly came.

It’s fine if it’s just once. The key news is delayed again for a period of time. In short, it’s lost again.

Caused a lot of people to complain, known as – pigeon horse!

The news given by the official website is because the new work is not fully prepared and needs to be temporarily revised, but I don’t know when a gossip suddenly spread on the Internet.

The situation where the pigeons fell twice was not modified by Mr. Guima, but Mr. Guima was waiting for Mr. Beichuan’s illustration to be completed. The reason for the delayed release was that Mr. Beichuan did not complete the illustration as scheduled, and Sifang Library had to postpone it again.

Naturally, not many people believed it at first, and some people scoffed.

“It’s okay to do it once, but it’s impossible to postpone the release twice for the illustration. Teacher Beichuan has such a big lineup? Just because the illustration is postponed? Who would believe it? If the illustration is not completed, it will not be replaced by someone else. There are so many illustrators. ”

Many people maintain this view, but with the passage of time, some gossip keeps appearing, and I have to say that everything can be dug up on the Internet, but the people who really have the time to find the evidence, the novel has been completed, Only the illustrations remain.

There is evidence, and of course we have to believe it, which makes many people very curious as to what kind of illustrator deserves to delay the release date of Sifang Library twice.

But fortunately, just this time, the pigeons were not lost, and they were finally released as scheduled.
