Dad Academy

The studio team led by Xin Xiaoguang and Wu Shiying finally returned, bringing with them a large number of painting manuscripts about mountains and architecture. These manuscripts will be the original manuscripts of "Coco" and will definitely be used, but many elements will be extracted from them. For example, the architectural style in the underworld and so on.

After listening to their reports, Zhang Tan said: "The most important thing is to find inspiration."

Xin Xiaoguang said with excitement: "I have a lot of ideas now. I will convene a meeting with everyone later and start painting right away."

Wu Shiying also said: "We have discussed it many times when we were outside and accumulated a lot of ideas. Boss, if you have time now, we will tell you about it now."

It's morning now, so Zhang Tan didn't go to the crew because he knew they would be back today, and the crew didn't have anything particularly important to do.

Zhang Tan said: "Now that I have time, I can listen to what you have to say."

Wu Shiying and Xin Xiaoguang immediately went to get their laptops.

After discussing it all morning, Zhang Tan invited everyone to lunch at noon. In the afternoon, he continued to stay in the studio and continued to discuss comics. By the time it was almost time to get off work, the preliminary preparations had been discussed. If nothing else, tomorrow Official production begins.

Comics are not animations, and are not that complicated. Many independent cartoonists often work alone. For example, Xin Xiaoguang and Wu Shiying before, they all come up with their own ideas, write their own scripts, draw storyboards, outline, color, and do all decathlons. .

The most difficult part is compiling the script and drawing the storyboards.

Generally speaking, comic authors update once a week, and the amount of updates is based on each person's ability and progress.

This is somewhat similar to updating online articles, except that online article authors are more miserable and need to update every day, while comic authors update weekly.

Now "Coco" is a division of labor among 10 people, and the progress is much faster. In addition, the script has been decided long ago, so this step is omitted. It is just a matter of drawing storyboards, then outlining, coloring, and publishing.

Zhang Tan invites everyone to go out to collect ideas for two main purposes. One is to help everyone accumulate materials and ideas, and the other is to help everyone sort out their thoughts, maintain an empty cup mentality, and start over.

Now everyone is ready and eager to give it a try. As long as they control the first few drafts, the follow-up will be quick.

The first few drafts are the most important, establishing the style of the entire comic. Zhang Tan decided to pay close attention to them and spend more time on them these days.

"Get off work, have a good rest, we'll start work tomorrow." Zhang Tan looked at his watch, got up and left the conference room, and everyone packed their things.

Wu Shiying warned: "Everyone knows the division of labor. Xiaoguang, those of you who are responsible for drawing the storyboards, go home at night and think more about it. Don't be empty-headed. Our progress mainly depends on you."

"Know it."

"Understood, I've already figured it out."

…

Everyone responded positively, not everyone who drew the storyboards, and everyone was in good spirits.

Storyboards are very important. Xin Xiaoguang leads the team, while Wu Shiying is in charge of the subsequent drawing and coloring. Her process is ranked behind the storyboards, so if the storyboards cannot be produced, they can't do anything.

Everyone packed up their things and left one by one. Some people looked at the red brick building next door. It was quiet inside. No children had come yet, but a little teacher had arrived.

"I've been here a while, but I haven't seen the children inside yet."

"The park only opens at six o'clock, so you can meet me by chance if you work overtime."

"Does anyone want to go in and take a look? Although the children haven't arrived, the door is open. I haven't seen what it's like inside."

"It's just like a kindergarten."

"What's so interesting about this."

…

Although he said this, everyone responded positively and came to the next building to look at the children's paradise.

The warm decoration and dazzling array of facilities, toys, and picture books inside surprised everyone. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

"Who are you?" Teacher Xiaoman came early today. She was cleaning the house. When she saw so many people coming in at the door, she hurriedly greeted them.

Xin Xiaoguang said: "Oh, hello teacher, we are from the studio next door. We just came back from a business trip today. I have been here for so long and I haven't seen it here yet. I was curious, so come and have a look. We will leave right away."

When Teacher Xiaoman heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief. With so many people swarming in, she thought they were looking for trouble.

"It's okay, you can come in and have a look." Teacher Xiaoman welcomed everyone in.

On the other side, Wu Shiying was the last to leave. Seeing that everyone had left, only Zhang Tan's office still had the lights on, so she went over and said, "Boss, are you still busy? Everyone has left, and so am I. Bye."

When Zhang Tan saw her, he thought of something and asked, "Are you busy tonight?"

Wu Shiying was stunned, and her heartbeat accelerated instantly.

"Yes... yes."

Zhang Tan: "Then I'll treat you to dinner tonight and do me a favor."

Zhang Tan invited me to dinner! There was a voice in Wu Shiying's heart, and her head was a little mushy. She immediately thought of the last sentence and asked, "Okay, what are you busy with?"

Zhang Tan: "There is a child in the school who likes to draw. Her cousin is getting married, and she wants to draw a picture for him and the bride, but the child has never learned it and is not very good at it. You are in this field A master, if you are free at night, teach her."

Wu Shiying felt relieved. It turned out that it was because of this that she felt a little disappointed.

"Okay, no problem."

"Thank you, let's go eat first. By the way, do you like spicy food? There is a restaurant nearby that has a very delicious Babao chili sauce..."

Zhang Tan took Wu Shiying away, got out of the little red horse, and walked deep into the village in the city.

At this time, it was time to get off work, and many white-collar workers from office buildings came here looking for delicious food.

Zhang Tan and Wu Shiying came to the restaurant and chatted casually while eating. Finally, they introduced Xiaobai and said that this child is usually a bit fierce. If she said something unpleasant, don't worry, she is a good girl after all.

Wu Shiying smiled and said that she would not trust him. He is a child, and his words are innocent. Who would argue with a child?

At the same time, I thought to myself, Zhang Tan is so kind. He takes care of the children in the academy like this, asking someone to teach him how to draw, and getting vaccinated in advance.

After the two had dinner, they went back for a walk. By this time, it was completely dark, and the street lights in the alleys were on. The evening breeze was blowing, and the alleys were particularly windy and chilly. People were hiding in their homes and refused to come out.

Wu Shiying shuddered, shrank back, and put her hands in her pockets. Suddenly she saw Zhang Tan adjusting the red scarf on his collar. He had not noticed before, but he came out wearing a scarf.

Seeing his movements, it seemed that he was trying to surround her, Wu Shiying felt a little warm in her heart, looking forward to it, but also shy.

Zhang Tan seemed to be untying his scarf, but in fact he was not. He was just adjusting it to make it tighter.

"Huh~~~" He breathed out and smiled at her, "The temperature difference between day and night is huge. It's even colder in the alley. Let's walk faster so you don't catch a cold."

After saying that, walking in front of her, the wind blowing in front of her suddenly became much lighter, but Wu Shiying did not feel warm. Her body was shaking and her face was bulging. Maybe it was because of the wind.

The tenth leader is born, grab your lollipop.

I owe another update.
