Chapter 443 Finalize the Cooperation

The fact that the first interview was fruitless does not mean that this time the conversation was fruitless.

Shoji Uno has very high standards for animation production, and Shen Xin can also see that he has his own understanding of manga adaptation, which makes Shen Xin have high expectations for this cooperation.

Although Xi Muhan is unhappy, it's not that he has any objections to this project, he just hates being underestimated by others.

So, back in the studio, Xi Muhan hurriedly ate the toast, and then returned to the workbench to create a detailed outline.

Shen Xin blinked her eyes, licked her lips, touched her stomach again, and sighed helplessly. It seems that there is nothing to eat today.

In fact, it is not too difficult to create an original plot with Yao Lin and Zhang Mei as the background of Xinguo. Because the background and settings are all ready-made, you can also put some of the content related to the follow-up of "Steel Refining" into this part of the plot, echoing "Steel Refining", which is called "foreshadowing".

However, the problem Xi Muhan faced was that she didn't know the story behind it, so she couldn't grasp the direction of the story as a whole.

The second meeting between Shen Xin, Shang Haozhi and Orochi—in fact, they didn’t meet each other, they just talked remotely through the computer—also went through a difficult negotiation. In the end, Shang Haozhi chose to give in and agreed to split the production into two seasons.

If there is an original plot, then the original plot is sandwiched between the first season and the second season and shown seamlessly. However, the length of each season is determined by "c future".

The original plan was that the first season would be half a year, with a total of 26 episodes, but Shen Xin rejected Shang Haozhi's suggestion.

"I think it's best not to limit the number of episodes produced. How long is the first season, how many episodes to produce. If you limit the length of a season, it will inevitably make the plot procrastinate. Including the original plot, it is not necessary to produce 12 episodes. As long as the content Appropriate, 9 episodes or 10 episodes are also fine."

Shoji Uno sided with Shen Xin this time, opposing Orochi and "c future".

"Good animation should be determined by the plot, not specific to a certain number of episodes."

In the third consultation, everyone finally finalized the production mode for this time.

First of all, Shen Xin submitted the follow-up na as soon as possible, so that Orochi could determine the production plan for the first season.

Shen Xin's ideal ending of the first season is when Edward and Fu Ye passed through the ruins of Kesseluxeth, where they met Rose who was hidden by Roy. After that, the two teams parted ways, Ross went to the new country, Edward returned to his hometown, and Hoinheim stood in front of the ruins of his home almost at the same time.

There are many benefits to this ending. From the beginning to here, if an animation is made, the length should be at least 20 episodes.

The plot of "Steel Refining fa" is located in the 19th episode. Considering that part of "fa" has been deleted, it is not a big problem to make it half a year.

In addition, the main characters in the early stage also appeared one by one, and the artificial human Rust can exist as the boss of the first season. And after defeating Rast, there also happened to be a short period of peace, which is suitable for the end.

More importantly, Yao Lin and Zhang Mei all appeared, and at the same time, the remains of Keseluxes also appeared, interacting with the follow-up original plot.

The only thing that is not very friendly is that there is a gap of more than ten words between the na drawn by Shen Xin and the "Sage of the West". In order to ensure the quality of the animation, Shen Xin had to draw more than ten episodes of na.

For this reason, Shen Xin had to suspend the publication for two weeks to draw na, and then took some time to write the setting of alchemy and rejuvenating the country, and handed it over to Xi Muhan.

Shoji Uno also knows that if there is a complete na, he can control the production of the animation in general, and he can better grasp the quality of the animation.

It was Shang Haozhi who was a little bit embarrassed. In the end, Shen Xin made a promise that he would not suspend the publication until Ye Hexu released a new work or "Steel Refining" was finished. That's why there was this two-week rest period.

For Xi Muhan, this period of time is also a critical time for her to formulate a detailed outline—one of the contracts this time,

There are also requirements for her. Before September, she must submit a high-quality outline, and before November, she must submit a script.

There is no requirement for the specific length of the original, but it is basically within 13 episodes in a season.

Shen Xin also put forward her own suggestion. Xi Muhan first wrote the detailed outline of the story, and then found out the main points of the detailed outline, at least to ensure that there is a bright spot in one episode, and cut off all the redundant parts.

"How to deal with the character's emotional outburst?" Xi Muhan blinked his eyes wide.

The parts that need to express emotion have been cut off.

"Use small bright spots." Shen Xin spread her hands.

"Where is the foreshadowing?" Xi Muhan asked.

"Every foreshadowing of yours must be a bright spot - if a plot is not helpful to promote the plot, cut it off. If a character is not helpful to the plot, please cut it off. Also, the rhythm of the story does not require the fastest, But you have to have your own rhythm, too fast or too slow is not appropriate."

"So troublesome?" Xi Muhan looked frustrated.

"No way. The animation is broadcast continuously, and readers need to be attracted to watch the next episode. Every episode must have something attractive."

Do you think it is easy to be a qualified broken chapter dog?

not easy!

Like online novels, brilliant chapter breaks are definitely a plus for the author.

The physical book is a one-off deal, and the book price is paid in one go, so you don’t need to worry too much about the broken chapters of each chapter. Even after reading it, you feel boring, and there is nothing you can do. After all, the book price has been paid, and there is no such thing as returning the book for refund .

However, the network serialization mode also has disadvantages for readers. Forget about broken chapter dogs, there is another kind of injury called tj.

Xi Muhan can also understand the points Shen Xin said, but it's just a detailed outline, not as casual as imagined, every plot must mobilize the audience's emotions, to describe it in one word, it's calculation... Uh, no, It is calculating, calculating every detail.

It took Shen Xin two weeks to draw more than ten words of na. To be honest, the pressure was not great. It is no exaggeration to say that one day is enough to recruit the original na.

But he has to work very hard, otherwise he will definitely be suspected-in fact, one episode of high-quality na a day is already exaggerated, after all, these nas are directly used to make animations.

When Shen Xin was "working hard" to draw na, Luo Zheng's new comic also began to be serialized - "The King of Rock and Roll".

Seeing this comic, Shen Xin immediately thought of "I'm Singing Crazy". It's also for making music, and it's also for dreams. These two comics may have some things in common.

However, I have to say that comics related to rock and roll are still very small, but there are also high-quality works, such as Yazawa Ai's "nana"-well, Luo Zheng can't draw this comic.
