My Animation Era

Gu Miao's wonderful cooperation with Naifly has not been made public, and even within Wanbao Animation, not many people know about it.

Don't ask why it's kept secret...

Although Wanbao has strong production capabilities and is generally recognized as a top animation company in the industry, no matter how strong it is, it cannot change the fact that they are a Chinese company.

"Angry Birds" is a game that originated in Europe and the United States and is popular all over the world. Its loyal players and fans may not understand why the animation adaptation of this game was handed over to a Chinese company.

Maybe there are very few such people.

But there is always a small group of people who will look at Wanbao and the animated work "Angry Birds" with discriminatory eyes.

So keep it a secret for now!

After the animation is completed and officially broadcast, it will not be too late to reveal the real production company.

The animation is tentatively scheduled to have 26 episodes.

This is the planning goal for the first season. We will first make 26 episodes to see the results. If the response is good, then we will continue to make the second and third seasons.

If the response is very bad, or even negative reviews, then Naifly will not suffer too much loss. It will be OK to change the production of the second season to another company...

The genre is action comedy!

The main plot of the animation tells the story of a group of flightless birds living on a tropical island. A mysterious green piggy lands on the island, and the peaceful life of the birds is broken.

The animation is restored very well!

The level design of the game has been integrated into the animation plot. Fat Red, who is born with thick black eyebrows, irritable personality, excited Chuck and easy-to-explode bombs... are all familiar game characters.

It can be said that this animation has been determined to take the "fan-oriented" path from the beginning of planning.

The main audience is those players and fans who have played the "Angry Birds" game and are familiar with these game characters.

As for passers-by who have never played the game and don’t know who these bird prototypes are...

terribly sorry!

The animation production team has not considered the feelings of these people at all. As a fan-oriented animation work, it only needs to ensure the fans’ viewing experience.

"This is so unfriendly!"

Ma Kui curled his lips and said, "Can't you please both the fans and the passers-by?"

"I want everything, but in the end I get nothing!" Gu Miao shook her head and said, "Do you know how many players and fans the game "Angry Birds" has around the world?"

What's wrong with fans?

Like "Angry Birds", a super big IP with a huge fan base around the world, you don't have to think too much when adapting it, just take care of the fans' feelings.

What kind of passerby fan?

When the number of fans of your original work reaches a certain level, you no longer need to care about the views and opinions of passersby fans.

Because your work can be popular all over the world just by relying on fans of the original work, so why do you want to please the fans of passers-by?

Angry Birds is like this, and so is the famous Three-Body Problem. The original IP is too well-known and the fan base is too deep.

In this case, instead of struggling to gain fans from outsiders, it is better to take the fan direction in a down-to-earth manner and make the original fans happy.

The Three-Body TV series is exactly like this.

Even if you do nothing, you don’t want to make a mistake! It is much better to modify it according to the original novel than to mess up and ruin the reputation of the entire IP.

There is something wrong with Maguire's thinking.

He still uses original ideas to treat super IP adaptation projects such as "Angry Birds" that are extremely well-known and popular.

This is definitely not possible...

There is an original animation approach to original animation. It is okay to adapt an unknown small IP with original ideas. However, if the IP is adapted with a strong foundation of popularity and fans all over the world, that is another solution.

Fans!

This is the clear path Gu Miao pointed out to Ma Kui. As long as he follows this direction, animation is unlikely to die violently.

Ma Kui probably listened.

Although he was still talking hard and claiming that he could find a way to make both passerby fans and game fans "happy", in fact, deep down in his heart, he had already approved Gu Miao's proposal.

"Good job!"

"When this animation is finished, your fame will spread overseas!" Gu Miao encouraged, "By then, the whole world will be calling your name, and you will be the King of Animation in everyone's eyes!"

"It can be pulled down..."

Ma Kui didn't believe what Mr. Gu said. Although "Angry Birds" could make him famous overseas, what kind of animation king is this?

If you really want to criticize the animation King, the eight-time Oscar winner and the animation director of "Tom and Jerry" Dave is not more qualified than him?

Let’s take a step back.

Even if the "Angry Birds" animation was successful and received numerous praises overseas, no one would think that this was Maguire's credit.

He was just lucky enough to pick up a globally famous IP like "Angry Birds".

I can fuck me too!

If there is such a good opportunity to become famous and shine, why didn't Mr. Gu take the opportunity himself and give the opportunity to him?

Maqui rolled his eyes.

No matter how great "Angry Birds" is described by Mr. Gu, there is one problem that is unavoidable.

For a super IP like this, the success of the film is the credit of the original work. Their games are already very famous, you just took a ride on it.

If the shooting is bad, it will be your fault...

It's such a great IP, the game is so good, but the animation turned out to be so crappy, how dare you say that you were wronged?

This is the trouble with adapting big IP!

If given a choice, Ma Kui would rather be like Hou Bin and create an original animation than take over the adaptation of a super big IP.

Purely thankless!

Unfortunately, he had no choice. If he received the salary offered by Mr. Gu, he would have to listen to Mr. Gu's arrangements, unless he didn't want to continue working at Wanbao.

"Ugly people complain a lot..."

After Ma Kui left, Gu Miao said with emotion: "It's rare to have such an opportunity, but to be so picky, it's really a full man who doesn't know how hungry he is."

He can guarantee it!

If word gets out and directors are screened from outside, Wanbao will definitely receive no less than a hundred resumes.

Domestic animation directors willing to take over the "Angry Birds" project can be queued from the city center to the outer ring...

You don’t know how blessed you are when you are in the midst of blessings!

Wanbao's rapid development in recent years has made many people feel inflated. Even the adaptation of a big IP like "Angry Birds" is disliked by some?

You haven't been beaten twice by "Haiwa" and "Quiba", right?

It has only been so long, but I have forgotten so quickly. What was the previous Wanbao animation like?

If you don’t remember these, then take a look at domestic friends. Without Wanbao’s conditions and strength, what kind of life would they live.

Fortunately, there is a Wanbao!

But the tragedy is that there is only one Wanbao, and the rise and revival of domestic animation still has a long way to go.
