My Animation Era

The joining of Kyoani Studio did not have much impact on Wanbao Animation.

After all, it was integrated as a whole, and the members of the original Kyoani studio were not split up. They were still the same as they were before, they just moved to another place to work.

However, the animation "Hyogo" was acquired by Wanbao, but it caused an uproar in the neon animation circle and attracted discussions among countless animation enthusiasts.

Why?

This has to do with the sensational effect it caused in the neon animation industry after the "Hyouka" animation was broadcast, as well as the popularity of the male and female protagonists Houtarou Oreki and Eru Chitanda.

without any exaggeration.

Although "Hyogo" has only been aired for less than 10 episodes, it has successfully won the favor of two-dimensional audiences with its plot depicting the youth and growth of young girls, its distinctive three-dimensional characters, and its outstanding graphics.

The original animation is one of KyoAni's most acclaimed works, and it is also the youth love god show in the minds of countless two-dimensional otakus and otakus. It is not just a false reputation, but it is really great.

In a sense, the "Hyouka" animation produced by Kyoani has achieved better results than the Kyoani version, and its popularity is even more exaggerated.

Under this premise, Wanbao won the copyright of this animation that is still being serialized and updated, and even the production team also packaged and bought it, which will naturally arouse the concerns of countless "Hyogo" fans.

What are they worried about?

Naturally, I am worried that after Kyoani Studio undergoes such big changes, the quality of the animation "Hyouka" will decline in the future! After all, the animation was doing well, but suddenly the producer was acquired. Who knows whether it will collapse in the future?

There is precedent for this kind of thing.

In areas like Neon, where weekly broadcasts are popular, there are many animations that are being broadcast. Suddenly, there are personnel changes or major changes in the producers, resulting in the tragedy of the work being unfinished, collapsed or even cut in half.

The animation is playing and the director suddenly changes. Have you ever seen it?

Have you ever seen an animation being broadcast, and the producer suddenly went bankrupt?

As the animation continues to play, have you ever seen the boss of a production company running away because of huge gambling debts?

If one of the above situations occurs, it will be difficult to say the subsequent fate of this animation.

The best result is that the animation sticks to completion and the quality doesn't drop too much. The general result is that the quality of the animation will decline seriously due to substitutions, rush work, or cost savings. The worst result is that the animation simply has no follow-up...

Gu Miao's favorite "Super Cool Cat" is the worst case scenario. The animation was running well, but the production company suddenly made a sudden move, causing the animation to end on the spot, and everyone couldn't fix it.

This kind of thing suddenly broke out when the animation "Hyogo" became a hit. It's no wonder that fans are worried. After all, past experience has proven that after sudden changes in the production company, the quality of animation will be greatly affected.

Gu Miao also knew this.

So on the phone, he told Seto not to rush through the process and not to rush Kyoani Studio to move. It was best to maintain the status quo.

The top priority is to finish the animation of "Hyogo" first. Before that, other things can be put on hold. Otherwise, the animation production team of "Bingguo" would be affected and the subsequent quality would decline, then Gu Miao would be guilty of a big crime.

Those fans who like Bingguo, shouldn't they scold him to death?

The name Gu Sanshui will probably be put on a pillar of shame in the second dimension because of this. From now on, if you mention Bingguo, you will have to be whipped once, and the treatment will be the same as Qin Hui, who kneels in the Yuewang Temple.

Gu Miao suddenly became afraid when she thought of this terrible consequence.

He is a sinner from the second dimension through the ages. Just hearing this name makes his heart tremble. He might as well forget it. He really doesn't dare to be this sinner.

…

In the golden autumn of October, the fragrance of osmanthus blooms.

Every time at this time, Gu Miao would think of the speech the old principal gave at the flag-raising ceremony in elementary school.

He had wanted to complain since he was a child. Where did the old principal copy the speech script? Why did the opening line always start with the sentence "Golden autumn and X moon, the fragrance of osmanthus"?

There are not even osmanthus in the school, let alone the so-called osmanthus!

The "fragrant scent of osmanthus" that I couldn't understand when I was a child, I can finally understand it now. Because the greening in Jiangchuan Animation Industrial Park is well done, Gu Miao can smell the fragrance of flowers while sitting in the office.

The pleasant floral fragrance will more than double your work efficiency.

The production of the animation "The Magic Soldier" has entered the final sprint stage. As a director, Gu Miao must cheer up and pay close attention to every aspect of post-production.

Especially editing and sound effects.

The former is okay, after all, the editors are veterans who started their business with Gu Miao, and they have collaborated on many classic animations together. "The Magic Soldier" is obviously not a problem for them.

The sound effects are different.

In the animation "The Magic Soldier", there are actually not many types of sound effects, and most of them are conventional sound effects that are easy to record, such as rain, thunder, wind, jumping, running, etc.

But there are also some unconventional sound effects, which are very difficult for sound effects engineers.

for example.

When Nangong Wentian fights with enemies, he usually holds the Divine Weapon Sky Crystal in his hand. So what should the sound effect of the Divine Weapon Sky Crystal be like?

Directly record the collision sound of cold weapons? Or is it synthetic digital sound effects?

This part of the process is progressing very slowly, and Gu Miao cannot let go. He must give guidance to the editor, sound effects artist and special effects artist from the director's perspective, and understand the sound and special effects results in real time.

The synthesis of sound effects is also very troublesome.

Because various dubbing materials, such as animated character dubbing, background music and scene sound effects, all need to be mixed and processed, and then edited in the order of the film to correspond to the timeline.

This step is also very easy to make mistakes, and the consequences of mistakes are very serious, and the sound and picture will be out of sync.

Ten days later.

Just as the second round of reruns of "The Adventures of Little Carp" and "Bugs Bunny" are about to come to an end, the animation "The Little Mermaid" has finally been completed.

No need to worry about submitting for review.

The animations produced by Wanbao are all positive and positive animations, so you never have to worry about passing censorship. If even "The Magic Soldier" can't pass the review, can any animation pass the review?

Rather than submitting it for review, it is more important to find a suitable broadcast platform for "The Legend" and choose a suitable schedule.

Dual-platform broadcasting of online TV is a must, and the online platform will even be updated in advance. After all, there is Wanbao Video, so there is no need to worry about this aspect.

The key is the TV station.

There is no need to check the schedule for broadcasting on online platforms. You can watch it at any time anyway, but the TV station cannot. If there is no suitable schedule, Gu Miao would rather delay it for a while than rush to broadcast it.

According to the feedback from the TV station, it seems that there is no suitable schedule at the end of October. The only space Gu Miao can choose is November...
