my animation era

Chapter 684 Animation and Cars (for Subscription)
Yuezhan is a magical IP.

How amazing?
Because this is an animation series that is obviously very popular and has a bright future, but in the end it forced itself to death.

The debut of the first season was the pinnacle, and the second and third seasons after that, each season collapsed more than the last, and in the end they simply failed and completely gave up treatment...

It can only be said that the morality club has blinded its own name for nothing, and it really has no morals at all.

As a long-time dating fan and a viewer who once loved this anime, Gu Miao is not disappointed with the production performance of the subsequent seasons of "Date A Live".

Once bitten, twice shy.

Gu Miao didn't want to see the same work being "over-commercialized" and ruined by Wanbao just because she was disgusted by the original version of the moral operation.

Tell the truth.

Although everyone generally believes that the plot of Harem Fan is not worth watching, just watch a paper man's wife and it's over.

But judging from the background setting of "Date A Live", this animation can be made into a super popular animation series with more than ten seasons according to the standard of 12 episodes in one season.

This is entirely possible. After all, the fan stickiness of the "Date A Live" animated series is ridiculously high. As long as the second season is satisfactory, the word-of-mouth will not be too bad.

But if you change the angle.

Perhaps the "Tom and Jerry" animation produced by the North American branch can barely be regarded as an "art sports car"!

There can be shortcomings in dating.

The statement of the three core elements originated from a few words that Gu Miao had said after drinking when he attended a reception.

It's like buying a car.

That is to say...

Perfect?

Gu Miao set a bottom line for Seto.

With a bunch of fancy configurations, consumers will not only not buy your car when they see that the core components such as the engine and gearbox are not good, they will even slander the car with relatives and friends.

As a result, the Festival Club messed up!

The same is true for "limited budget".

As the general manager of Seto, Gu Miao was not sure if he also held the idea of ​​"get one ticket and leave" and didn't pay enough attention to the second season of the appointment.

Wanbao is not a moral society.

Ah this...

So, he had to take a look.

How do you know!
Nishio, a stubborn guy, actually asked an unexpected question before leaving.

Nothing to say.

But this is just an artistic level, not a "concept car" that shows off technology, what about technology?What about animations that can be used to show skills and muscle?

But he didn't let his guard down.

Gu Miao didn't want to do this either. She could use limited funds and manpower to produce animation works with no quality limit, so she had to make such a decision.

Gu Miao glanced at it.

"Then what kind of animation is the sports car of our Wanbao animation, or the concept car?"

If it cuts corners, then there is nothing to say. Now that the second season has just been produced, hurry up and remake it.

Seto brought Gu Miao to the production site of the second season of "Date A Live" and showed him the original painting materials that had been drawn.

Is there even hope for an upside?

Otherwise, the budget can't bear it!
……

Plot, character design, painting!
The original words of the old man are that if these three things are done well, even if the other parts such as music, editing, dubbing and special effects are slightly less interesting, they can still attract the audience to pay for it.

Gu Miao admitted that she was questioned.

I thought these two people would admire his foresight and sagacity, so they flattered him fiercely when they saw him off...

This is not a work that can be run away with a fortune, but a work that can be operated and maintained for a long time.

However, it depends on the extent of the collapse.As long as it is not the kind of distorted "three-headed and six-armed" painting collapse, nor the kind of "mutant temperament" character design collapse, it is acceptable.

Gu Miao thinks what the old man said is right, an animation company producing animation works is the same as a consumer buying a car.

A car with outstanding core components, after consumers spend money to buy it, they may complain about the poor configuration of the car, and there is no reversing image... But you will not regret it after asking him?
That's probably not regrettable.

More or less it will collapse a little.

Gu Miao is a very responsible animation producer, and he has a lot of affection for "Date A Live", so he won't run away just to get a ticket.

As for redundant configuration?
If you have a lot of budget, then it will be better equipped for you. If you don’t have enough budget, then it will be gone.

Even this short board, don't care about the length, even if it is obvious.As long as the three core elements, that is, the plot, painting and character setting are completed, the rest can be accepted.

"In the future there will be...!"

"It's okay, keep it up."

The so-called bottom line is the degree of collapse he can accept.As long as the plot, painting and character design remain intact, the rest will be chosen according to the situation.

Before boarding the plane back to China, Gu Miao said something very earnest to Seto and Nishio, the heads of the branch.

A few material line drawings alone can't explain anything, animation production depends on the final effect of the finished product.

It's a good idea, but the question is, how can there be a perfect animation in the world?Anyway, there are one or two shortcomings that have been criticized and criticized.

As a harem fan, especially a harem fan with so many female characters, it is impossible for the characters not to collapse at all during the long serialization process.

Gu Miao encouraged: "As long as the current quality is maintained, there will be no significant decline in word-of-mouth in the second season."

What about Seto?

"Don't worry, President!"

fortunately!

What made him breathe a sigh of relief was that the quality of these original painting materials was quite good, and there was no "collapse of face" as he guessed.

"In order to experiment with new technologies and show off their skills, car manufacturers usually pile up materials desperately and launch one or two sports cars or concept models regardless of cost."

At first, he really didn't know how to answer this question.After all, among Wanbao's existing works, it seems that there is really no animation that "stacks materials to the extreme" regardless of cost.

But then again.

"President, since you use cars as an example, then I want to know one thing."

"For the works of commercial companies, the first thing to consider is the issue of profitability. Therefore, you can't blindly pile up materials when making animations, and it will be difficult to pay back."

Obviously it can flow for a long time, but it has to be a one-shot deal, which leads to more and more outrageous and disastrous subsequent seasons, and the series' reputation continues to decline.

In a limited budget, only the parts that most affect the "overall performance" and performance can be considered, such as the engine and gearbox of the car, the plot of the animation and the painting of the characters.

"We are a commercial company."

Seto's work is fairly serious, and he didn't cheat. He was very satisfied with the 3-minute half-finished effect of the first episode of the animation.

If it meets expectations, then it is considered that he is worrying too much.

Gu Miao could only comfort Xi Wei in this way, because he felt that the time was not yet ripe.

If there is a chance in the future, Wanbao, an animation factory, will also produce a super sports car like "Battle of Two Cities".

Who can tell what will happen in the future?

　If you go to eat now, you don’t need to order with your mobile phone, and you will be despised if you ask the waiter to deliver the menu?
