MTL - From White Box To Supervision-Chapter 10 storyboard painting

The theatrical version is different from the TV version. The storytelling of the theatrical version is almost all done by the supervisor, while the TV version of the animation storyboard supervisor is generally only responsible for a few important words.

For example, the first episode, the last episode, or the climax of a certain plot, the rest of the storyboards are all performed and painted by other episodes.

Don't feel that the supervision is easy because of this. That idea is completely wrong. Except for the storyboard script, the supervision needs to follow up with all departments. The affairs are also very busy. In addition to these, there is also the psychology of whether the animation is good or not. pressure.

If the construction period is too fast, causing some paintings to collapse, or there are some brain-dead feeding plots, no matter whether the responsibility is supervising or not, it is definitely supervising who is to blame, and there are many people who are sprayed as dogs on the Internet by fans. , and even more, even influence future achievements.

After all, the person in charge of an animation is still the supervisor in name, and even the investors of the animation will ask the supervisor.

Storytelling is different from illustration. Storytelling does not care about drawing ability, as long as people can understand what is described above is enough.

Kinoshita Seiichi's paintings can be said to be terrible, but they are surprisingly understandable.

"If it's too bad, leave it to the painting department to revise it." Kinoshita said.

"But the supervisor, the painting department is rushing to draw various background settings and characters? I'm afraid I don't have time now." Zhang Beichuan said.

"That's bad." Kinoshita Shiroichi scratched his head in distress: "I usually ask Ogasawara Rinko to help me with this kind of thing."

Zhang Beichuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Supervisor, if you don't mind, you can let me try it out. I have learned painting for many years before, so there should be no problem in drawing this."

"That's it, then I'll trouble you." Mu Xiacheng smiled.

Zhang Beichuan returned to his seat, took out a brand new storyboard, and started painting according to the storyboard given by the supervisor.

Although Kinoshita Seiichi's storyboards are dazzling, it's not a problem to understand the meaning inside. There are some storyboards in the circle and you need to ask the supervisor specially, which is the most troublesome.

This kind of storyboard does not need to be too detailed, but Zhang Beichuan has used all his strength and energy. Although the cart before the horse is put upside down, Zhang Beichuan wants to prove his strength in front of the company's supervision. Zhang Beichuan also has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and it always feels awkward if he doesn't paint well.

"Huh, there should be no problem." Zhang Beichuan stopped writing and was a little happy when he picked up the storyboard in his hand. Naturally, the storyboard above can't be compared to the illustration, but it's also very good and meticulous.

Zhang Beichuan used a printer to make a copy of his brand-new storyboard and handed it to Kinoshita Seiichi.

As soon as Muxiacheng saw the new storyboard, he knew Zhang Beichuan's thoughts just by looking at it. He smiled slightly, but didn't care.

"It's a very good artist, but you don't need to be so meticulous at all. After all, the role of the storyboard is to simply express the narrative of a story, but thank you anyway."

"Also, please give each department a copy of the storyboard."

"I see." Zhang Beichuan nodded.

As instructed, Zhang Beichuan sent all the storyboards and returned to his position.

At noon, Zhang Beichuan took out the bento he bought last night, heated it in the microwave, and began to eat it.

"Here." Miyamori Aoi smiled and handed over a donut.

"For me?" Zhang Beichuan blinked.

"Could it be that I gave it to the air?" Miyamori Aoi laughed.

"Thank you." Zhang Beichuan thanked him and took a bite of the donut.

"It's so sweet." Zhang Beichuan took a bite, but overall the taste was pretty good.

"My favorite snack is donuts. I am really happy. I feel that the fatigue of work has been relieved a lot." Miyamori Aoi looked satisfied.

"Alright, this isn't Kichijoji's Peka doughnut, otherwise it's delicious."

"Tsk." Zhang Beichuan was amazed: "This is not dorayaki, pineapple buns, etc. It's easy to gain weight if you eat too much."

"It doesn't matter what you eat to gain weight."

"Ha ha."

......

In the evening, Zhang Beichuan returned to his apartment. After dinner, he planned to take a bath.

Zhang Beichuan's bathroom now has a faucet that can be used as a bathroom, but it broke two days ago, and there is no water at all. Now, when he takes a bath, he usually goes to a public bath not far away to take a bath.

After getting the necessary things ready, shampoo, changing clothes, etc. Zhang Beichuan set off on foot.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, a bathhouse arrived.

It was just a men's bathhouse when Zhang Beichuan saw an acquaintance, a burly man with dark skin who was undressing.

He is the husband of Zhang Beichuan's neighbor, Tetsuko Takada, Kazunari Takada, a professional screenwriter.

"Uncle Takata, why are you here?" Zhang Beichuan came over to say hello.

"Haha, it's Kitagawa-san, you've come to take a bath too." Takada Ichicheng laughed.

"Well. UU reading www.uukanshu.com" Zhang Beichuan wondered: "Uncle Takata, can't you take a bath at home? Why did you come here to take a bath?"

Kazunari Takada said, "Our family always comes here to take a bath every once in a while. It's okay at home, but I don't feel as comfortable as here."

After taking off their clothes, the two went into the bathhouse together. There were not many people today. There were only Zhang Beichuan and Takata Ichicheng in the whole bathhouse.

"How's your work? I heard Tetsuko say you work in Musashino?"

"Well, yes, I've only worked for a few days, and the position is production."

"The production is in progress? But if I remember correctly, you want to be the original artist."

"Yes, it's just a coincidence that it had to be made as a production."

Hearing this, Takata Ichicheng patted Zhang Beichuan on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged about this kind of thing, how can you become a position if you want to become a position, if you work hard in this position for a year, maybe you can transfer to it. The original artist."

"Well, I'm not discouraged."

The two spent a lot of time together. During this period, Gao Tianyicheng kept telling Zhang Beichuan a lot of work experience, which greatly benefited Zhang Beichuan.

"Let me give you a bath, Mr. Takada."

"Then I'll trouble you Beichuan-kun."

"nothing."

"By the way, Mr. Takada, I only know that you are a screenwriter and scriptwriter, and I don't know what pseudonym you used. I want to read it when I look back. Of course, if it's inconvenient to say, you don't have to tell me."

"Haha, this isn't a big deal." Takada Kazunari smiled.

"My pen name is 'Xu Yuanxuan', and I'm not very well-known."

Zhang Beichuan nodded. He had never heard of it, but he was determined to go back and check it online.
