Secondly, after the storyboard of this movie was drawn, many things did not need to be shot in real life. They could be produced by just spending money to find a mature special effects company. Overall, the whole movie actually feels a bit like a live-action animation. this mode. It allows Ping Qingshan to use his ultimate move. That is to directly use double versions. The so-called dual versions are like in the previous life's Zootopia, where the hosts from different countries are different animals. Ping Qingshan can also make two movie versions. The virtual world is common in the most expensive and costly movies, while the real world can use two completely different teams. Choose a set of protagonists in Japan to shoot a Japanese version, and then use Americans to shoot an American version. Since the screens for entering the game world can be universal and the real people do not appear on screen for very long, the cost is not actually that much higher.
Chapter 237: Long-Abandoned Musashi After the script was initially finalized. Ping Qingshan quickly regrouped his team. Still a familiar office. It’s still the familiar whiteboard. "We'll focus on this script and move forward." "Sure!" Nakamura agreed immediately and asked, "Are we still going to use the studio at Yujuku?" Ping Qingshan nodded. "Okay, then I'll go and look for copyright first..." Nakamura hadn't finished speaking yet. Ping Qingshan just waved his hand. "I'll take care of the copyright matters. You go to the United States first." Pingqingshan and Nakamura Shushang have been working together for a long time. Nakamura Shushang immediately stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, then I'll go to the United States first." For Pingqingshan. When it comes to actors and copyrights in Japan, he is very effective. On the other hand, the United States needs a capable person to find suitable actors. Not only do you have to find the right one, you have to find it quickly. At the moment, the only thing Ping Qingshan could think of was Nakamura sake. After watching Nakamura Sakumi leave the office, Ping Qingshan picked up the phone and asked An Shang Xiongyi to bring the screenwriter team over.
Although Ping Qingshan already had an outline of the script, if he wanted to put it into filming, he still needed Xiong Yi and others to help. After doing all this, Ping Qingshan did not immediately look for copyright. It’s not that he is not in a hurry, but because the early preparation work for a film is actually a very long process. In addition, this film involves a lot of special effects production. It can't be fast enough. Normally, the process of Hollywood special effects movies is very complicated, including storyboards, stories, original paintings, modeling, binding, animation, lighting, materials, rendering, synthesis, editing, etc. But these things already have a very mature industrialized system. There is no need for Ping Qingshan to do it. What he really needs to do is to polish the script and storyboard, and then follow up on the progress and pay attention to adjusting some details at any time. In fact, he might even spend more time adding Easter eggs to the storyboards than he does on special effects production. of course. If you want to invest time in a movie like this, you can. You can spend all your time in the special effects factory, adjusting each shot as it comes out. But for Ping Qingshan, he does not want to pursue absolute details. As long as the special effects factory can express the information in the storyboard, that's enough. All he needs to do is provide the special effects factory with enough information. Ping Qingshan was not worried about this. He has help. ~~~ Musashino Animation Since the company is called Musashino Animation, its location is naturally in Musashino City, Tokyo. Like most Japanese animation companies, Musashino's office building is not big, with three floors in total, and looks more like a small apartment from the outside. Small businesses like this naturally don’t have a front desk. If you have any questions, you can either make an appointment by phone or go directly to the office to find someone. But today, Miyamori Aoi was temporarily appointed to the front desk position. As soon as Miyamori Aoi arrived at the company in the morning, she received a notice from the president saying that Director Hirakiyosugi, with whom she had worked before, would be coming over this afternoon. After knowing this, Miyamori Aoi happily agreed to this one-day receptionist job. After all, she had a very pleasant collaboration with Hei Qingshan in "Battle Royale" before. She also learned a lot during that time. However, although the president said that Ping Qingshan would come, he did not specify the specific time. The girl waited for the entire morning but did not see a single person. Miyamori Aoi couldn't help but have some other thoughts in her mind...
I hope Supervisor Sugi isn't coming. This is possible, after all, Supervisor Sugi is a very busy man... I don’t know if he heard what Miyamori Aoi was saying. Ping Qingshan, who was driving, sneezed several times in succession. If he could hear Miyamori Aoi's complaints now, he would definitely explain it to himself. After all, it really can't be blamed on him. After finalizing the preliminary plans, Ping Qingshan planned to go out. As a result, Ishihara Satomi heard the gossip from somewhere and suddenly showed up in the office, and the two of them had a long argument in the office. It was Ping Qingshan who convinced Ishihara Satomi that this movie was really not suitable for her. By the time Pingqingsugi finished his work and drove to Musashino, it was almost 1 o'clock. People in Musashino were either resting or eating their lunch boxes. Musashino's daily routine is quite humane. The lunch break starts at 12 o'clock and lasts until 1: at noon, a full hour and a half...which is a pretty good level in the industry. Of course, the price you pay may be the risk of having to work overtime at any time at night. However, as for overtime, for animation companies, it is probably something that everyone accepts as a given! At this time, Miyamori Aoi was also lying on her desk and taking a rest. For animators, especially a project's production manager, Miyamori Aoi may only have a few dozen minutes of rest a day. Today, because I have to receive Ping Qingshan, I actually have half a day off. Ping Qingshan stood at the door of the studio and looked around. After hesitating for a while, he tapped the table with his knuckles to wake up Miyamori Aoi. Miyamori Aoi raised her head sleepily, and when her eyes came back to her senses, she pointed at Pingqingshan with her mouth slightly opened and exclaimed: "Ah, Director Shan! You're here?" "haven't seen you for a long time." "Long time no see, Director Sugi." Miyamori Aoi rubbed her eyes and smiled. Although the two had not seen each other for a long time, because Miyamori Aoi was his assistant in the "Battle Royale" crew and they communicated quite a lot, it was just a chance to say hello. The two became familiar with each other again. "Here, here, the president said that you should go find him first when you get here." Miyamori Aoi said as she shouted inside. "President! Supervisor Sugi is here." This shout attracted everyone's attention. No one in Musashi was not curious about Ping Qingshan. The reason why they have this performance.
It is also related to the fact that after Miyamori Aoi came back from "Battle Royale", she often talked about Hira Kiyosugi's experience. The others were looking at Ping Qingshan, and Ping Qingshan was also observing the internal atmosphere of the Musashino company. In his previous life, Hira Kiyosugi also liked the animation Shirobako, so this time when he came here, his mentality of discussing business was a little less, and it was more like a pilgrimage? I don't know where the little angel Hui Ma is working... The interior of Musashino is quite large, and the small building where it is located has three floors. The office on the second floor that often appears in the animation is where the animation production takes place. There are actually many rooms that are not shown in other animations. For example, the art office area, special effects, storyboards, supervision room, etc. Although we certainly cannot undertake the special effects production of the movie, we can definitely cooperate with the special effects factory to control the art of the entire film, such as the initial character designs of the male and female protagonists. Musashino first determined the specific art style in the storyboard, and then handed it over to the special effects factory to complete the 3D modeling. There was definitely a change in style in the middle, but Hirakiyosugi was at least able to control the overall style in his own way. Chapter 238 Return to Yuqiu "Where the Stars Shine" live director Haruma Kitagawa. He stood in the conference room of Tokyo TV with an anxious look on his face. There were many people in the conference room, but the atmosphere was very depressing. Everyone was looking at the mobile phones on the table, seemingly waiting for some news. A few minutes later, the cell phone rang. Kitagawa Haruma grabbed the phone. "Yes, it's me. Have you checked the situation in Mito City?" "..." "you sure?" "Okay... I understand, okay... I understand..." Kitagawa Haruma put down his phone and took a deep breath. "An earthquake occurred in Mito City. Our original site is no longer safe. We must cancel the original plan..." "What suggestions do you have?" "Let's inform Producer Shan..." Kitagawa Haruma frowned. "Of course I know we have to report it to Producer Shan, but before we do that, we should at least come up with a few plans. Otherwise, what should we do? Should we wait for Supervisor Shan to help us figure out a solution?" ~~~ When Ping Qingshan received a call saying that the original plan was not feasible. He was sitting next to Ema Yasuhara, watching the girl draw line drawings.
I was in a very happy mood. But with this call, I had no choice but to give up the benefit of watching the animation from a first-person perspective and deal with this tricky but not-so-tricky problem. It was tricky because the second episode of Where the Stars Shine was about to be filmed, but there was a problem with the original venue, and all the venues and scripts that had been built before could not be used. However, "Where the Stars Shine" and "Sakura Girls" are both programs that are filmed and broadcast at the same time, and one day's loss of filming time would be a major accident. It is naturally impossible to stop and wait for the earthquake alert to be lifted before taking pictures.
