From White Box To Supervision

Chapter 87: Budget Question

After receiving the affirmation of Miyamori Aoi, Zhang Beichuan nervously handed the storyboard to Kinoshita Seiichi.

“The storyboards this time are really amazing, and they can be used directly as Layouts. Some of your storyboards can really be called divine storyboards. Some perspectives are really special. For me It was also a lot of inspiration.”

Kinoshita Seiichi has a rare gaffe, and has fully affirmed Zhang Beichuan’s storyboard.

Zhang Beichuan laughed, it was not a loss for him to gain the affirmation of supervision for his sleepless efforts for the past three days.

“but…”

Kinoshita Seiichi’s words made Zhang Beichuan’s heart tighten slightly.

Mu Xia Chengyi pointed to Zhang Beichuan’s most attentive circus and chase in the storyboard, and said, “The number of shots in your two parts is really well drawn, and even the part inside can be said to be a first-class storyboard. , but the budget is definitely far beyond the scope of a single episode, have you considered the number of sheets?”

The words of Seiichi Kinoshita made Zhang Beichuan’s face stiff. He really only cared about the quality and didn’t think about the budget at all. In his heart, he quickly estimated the number of sheets to draw.

But Kixia Joichi gave the answer: “I estimate it is 8,000 to 9,000, and our budget for a single episode is 5,000 or 6,000. The chase and this circus you drew are the climax of the whole section, and 3D is simply not enough. , it will only make it very stiff, and if you want to achieve the level of fluency in your storyboard, at least you need to draw one by one by an original artist who is proficient in fighter jets, and the number of pictures must reach the ideal maximum. Time, budget, it’s more than worth the money for this episode.”

Mu Xia Chengyi’s words made Zhang Beichuan feel a little cold in his heart.

“But I really like this part of the mirror you drew. You gave me a big surprise. I think it must be of high quality. I will discuss it with producer Watanabe Hayabusa to see if it can be done. extra budget.”

“Huh.” Zhang Beichuan couldn’t help but said, “Teacher, can you finish your words at once? It scares me to death every time.”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Kinoshita smiled and said: “This matter is not a decision all at once, and an episode with such a high quality production needs to discuss with Watanabe Hayabusa before answering, mainly because the budget of “Three Girls” is not imagined There are enough of them.”

“But I remember that comics are very popular, aren’t they?”

Mu Xiacheng smiled bitterly: “Although the fire is hot, the funds of the investors are not as much as imagined. The budget for each episode needs to be carefully calculated. It can be said that every animation I supervise now needs to be carefully calculated. In terms of funding, it has been a long time since there was as much financial planning as the previous “Fullmetal Alchemist”, in fact, Honda was always a headache for me before, because I always added content halfway, causing overruns.”

“It seems that Mr. Honda had a lot of headaches for supervising this.” Zhang Beichuan sighed.

In fact, Aoi Miyamori was originally responsible for the funding issue, but at this time, due to Aoi Miyamori’s experience, Hayabusa Watanabe was temporarily in charge.

“Wait a moment, I’ll discuss with him when Watanabe Hayabusa comes back.”

“I see.”

……

In the evening, Zhang Beichuan was called into the supervisor’s office, and when he went inside, there were a lot of discussions.

“The composition of this part is really good and very creative.”

“Yes, the angle used here is also very interesting.”

“You should watch the circus here. It’s really old. I didn’t expect Beichuan to understand the circus very well at such a young age.”

……

“Excuse me, I’m in.” Zhang Beichuan pushed open the door and was shocked when he saw the people inside. There were many people inside.

Maru Hiroshi, Yamada Masashi, Mr. Nakahara Hitoshi, and Watanabe Hayabusa.

Basically, the main production team of “Three Girls” has come, and even Miss Rinko Ogasawara from the painting department has come.

And they all held the third chapter drawn by Zhang Beichuan to watch the storyboard.

“Supervision… this is.”

Kinoshita Seiichi said helplessly: “They all heard that you drew a good storyboard, and they all had to come over to see it.”

Yuanhong waved his hand and said with a smile, “Junior Beichuan, we are here to support you. The storyboard is very powerful.”

“thanks.”

Zhang Beichuan approached, inside, Watanabe Hayabusa was sitting beside the supervisor.

“Beichuan-kun, sit down.”

“Ah, thank you.” Zhang Beichuan sat in front.

“I saw your storyboard, and the quality is very high.” Watanabe Hayabusa congratulated and said, “I estimate the production cost that Kinoshita told me to be very similar, but Kinoshita’s estimate is slightly different, I think If your storyboard reaches the ideal level of fluency, I estimate it will be even higher, and it is possible to break through 10,000 paintings. It seems that you must save money elsewhere.”

“I know, I’m very sorry, I didn’t think about it when I drew…” But Zhang Beichuan was halfway through his words before he realized what Watanabe Hayabusa just said.

“Mr. Watanabe, you… do you agree?”

“Well~www.readwn.com~ Seeing the storyboard you drew so carefully, wouldn’t it make us feel useless if we couldn’t use it because the quality was too high, we should use it naturally and do our best, after all, Musashino has already It’s been a long time since I made a single episode of super-quality animation. This time I took advantage of the opportunity to play it to increase the popularity. In the eyes of outsiders, I must correct that Musashino can only be a mediocre animation company. Your appearance, Beichuan-kun, you are still the performance of these words, I hope you will not disappoint us.”

Zhang Beichuan said happily: “I will do my best.”

“Mr Beichuan, congratulations.” Everyone congratulated.

“thanks.”

“It’s just Mr. Watanabe, about the funding issue…”

“Well, regarding the funding issue, I will apply for a little more allocation, but it should not be too much. It can only be saved in other places, and the funds will be used in more important places. The previous dialogue and the like can only be used as much as possible. Save as much as you can, you can ask the supervisor in this regard, he has experience.” Watanabe Hayato said.

“OK.”

“It’s the first time you’ve acted in a performance, and you’re in charge of such an important number of words, you’re bound to encounter a lot of problems, but… Kitagawa-kun, come on.”

Zhang Beichuan bowed and said, “I will do my best.”

“If you have any difficulties, please ask your seniors for advice. They are all experienced and may not be as good as those famous and well-known performances, but they can still give you advice.” Kinoshita pointed out.

Zhang Beichuan looked at everyone, bowed and said, “I will trouble you seniors in the future.”

“Haha, don’t be so serious.”

“That’s right.”

Zhang Beichuan was very happy and excited, because the storyboards he worked so hard to draw could finally be animated.
