The Creator of the Second Dimension

The original draft of the character design was almost confirmed. After sending Li Ruoxuan away, Xu Rui continued the storyboarding work he had just started.

The opportunity for the creation of "Music Girl" was the cooperation of "Magic Girl Madoka". At that time, Xu Rui had a lot of exchanges with Mr. Shuhai, who was in charge of the original project. When he learned that Mr. Shuhai was preparing to create a new work, Xu Rui proposed Mrs. Shuhai created a theme of a high school girl, because this is the image she is best at portraying.

At the same time, Xu Rui also suggested that these girls could have a place like a club to slightly isolate them from ordinary campus life. Therefore, Mr. Shuhai, who had experience in bands when he was young, decided to use the music club as his main theme. stage.

As for several character designs, Xu Rui also gave Mr. Shuhai a lot of inspiration, so that in the words of the author of the first volume of the booklet, Mr. Shuhai also thanked Xu Rui, and joked that if this comic has animation in the future If there is an opportunity for transformation, then it is best to hand it over to the production of phantom animation, but unexpectedly it came true.

In fact, this comic Xu Rui has been paying attention to, and it has long been included in his animation plan. The reason why he waited until now is because he is not very sure about the audience of this kind of daily animation in China. The second is that he has to wait for a few more booklets of the original work, and wait until he has accumulated a certain number of plots before he can animate.

Therefore, at a time when the "Classic Literature Society Series" has come to an end, and the manga has been serialized for nearly two years, the news of animation is just right.

Although there is a certain gap between the original work of "Music Girl" and the "Light Music Girl" recognized by Xu Rui, it is generally a similar work, and many techniques can be used in it.

Xu Rui believes that the essence of works like "Music Girl" is to show the beauty and cuteness of girls, that is, "cute" works. The layout is quite small, even limited to the leisurely afternoon tea time in the club classroom.

It is this kind of small story that requires a more delicate performance.

If facing a dragon or saving the world, the performance of the character in this extreme situation will be particularly obvious, so that people can feel the growth and change of the character, then the movement of picking up the teacup and the subtle changes in the eyes, this is the The methods used in daily animations such as "Music Girl" are obviously difficult for the audience to notice and understand these micro-expressions and small movements.

If it is too exaggerated, it will lose the breath of life and make people feel "unreal". It is too small, and it is easy to be ignored in today's fast-paced information explosion Internet age.

Through the production of the "Classic Literature Society Series", the producers of fantasy animation have basically mastered certain skills. This is Xu Rui dare to make "Music Girl", which is more "everyday" than the "Classic Literature Society Series". "The reason for the animation, after all, the members of the classical literature club can also solve some intractable diseases, and the light music club of "Music Girl" really spends most of the time drinking tea and chatting.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Rui came to the office building of Hatsune Games after finishing processing the draft of plot activities after "Bloodborne: Curse". He came to the conference room and waited for two minutes. One was wearing a long-sleeved jacket and brown trousers , the short-haired girl with glasses knocked on the door and walked in.

"President Xu, are you looking for me?"

She was still a little cautious, Xu Rui asked her to sit down and relax a little.

"You're Shen Qianxiao, right? How are you? Are you doing okay at Hatsune Games?"

Xu Rui asked, the meeting room is not closed, you can see the working conditions of the employees outside, and you can also glimpse a corner of the inside from the outside.

"Well, it's a pleasure working here."

Shen Qianxiao nodded. After she created "Song of Shaking Onions", she immediately became a popular creator of Hatsune Miku songs. After that, she wrote several songs, two of which entered the hall. It happened during that time, Shen Qianxiao's career in the game company where she worked was not going well, so she accepted Liu Xueyan's invitation and came to Ningjiang to join Hatsune Games. At that time, "Bloodborne: Curse" had just started serving.

After entering the Hatsune game, Shen Qianxiao also continued the original creation and published several more songs. In the previous "Hatsune Miku: Idol Master", six songs were written by Shen Qianxiao.

"Just be happy, I have a job here."

As Xu Rui said, he handed the documents at hand to Shen Qianxiao.

""Music Girl"? Isn't this the latest work of Fantastic Animation?"

Shen Qianxiao frowned slightly. She still learned the news through the news. Shen Qianxiao was not very familiar with the people from the animation animation. She had participated in several internal friendships, but she still didn't remember the names and looks of those boys.

"Yes, I want you to take charge of the music production of this animation."

"Oh, so it's music production???"

Shen Qianxiao just froze in place, holding the plan of "Music Girl" in her hand.

"No, I'm really not humble. I'm just a melody maker. Why do you let me be the music producer of an animation? Boss, you should hire someone else."

She waved her hand in refusal.

"I've heard the songs you composed, including the ones for "Bloodborne: Curse" and the ones for "Hatsune Miku: The Idolmaster", and I think you can fill this position."

Xu Rui insisted.

"But, those"

Shen Qianxiao originally wanted to explain that these songs are actually created around a theme, and together with other composers' songs, they constitute the music of the game. It is unprecedented for her to be solely responsible for the music production of a work.

You must know that music production is not only about composing music, but also needs to establish the emotional tone and atmosphere of the music of the whole work. For example, in a happy film, the overall music needs to be more lively; It is very difficult to grasp this degree of thickness. Whether Shen Qianxiao was in the previous company or the current Hatsune game, she basically created under the hands of the main person in charge. It can be regarded as a propositional composition. Now she is allowed to play freely. I have no confidence.

But Shen Qianxiao looked at Xu Rui's eyes and knew that he was not joking.

"Can you give me a moment to think about it?"

She said that this is a major decision, and it is definitely not something that can be settled in a sentence or two.

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."

Xu Rui got up and left, leaving behind the planning book of "Music Girl".

Shen Qianxiao looked at this proposal with mixed feelings.
