Chapter 731 Speculation

Rough?

"No way? If the comics are rough, can they win the 'Golden Paintbrush' award?" Yan Fei blinked, feeling incredible.

"What I mean by rough is the comparison with the previous comics, not with other comics." Shen Xin spread her hands, "The student who usually scored 100 points in the test suddenly scored 90 points, but the second place was 89 points. , Tell me, what is the difference between 100 points and 90 points?"

"The scores are different." Xi Muhan said.

"That's right. The scores are different, but it doesn't affect the ranking. However, I haven't read other award-winning comics, so I can't judge how much the decline in the quality of "Doomsday Rescue" will affect the awards." Shen Xin yawned and moved the pad Put it on the table.

Xi Muhan picked up the pad, read it carefully, and looked at Shen Xin suspiciously, "Is the quality of the manga okay? Where has it dropped?"

Shen Xin rubbed her forehead, smiled wryly and said, "Xiaohan, you may not be able to see it yet, so give the pad to Sister Yan. Read the first 27 episodes carefully, and compare it with the comics later, you should be able to notice the difference. By the way, I It mainly refers to the storyboard."

It's not that Shen Xin underestimated Xi Muhan, but for cartoonists, storyboarding is not easy to master.

Part of the reason why many illustrators with outstanding drawing skills cannot become best-selling cartoonists lies in the storyboarding.

The storyboard of the illustrations pays attention to better displaying the sense of the picture, and the manga is tangled and serialized. How to attract readers with each chapter is particularly critical, and this is the main function of the storyboard.

Xi Muhan is not a cartoonist, she usually only reads comics, after handing it over to Lu Ning, Lu Ning has to edit it again.

In terms of storyboarding, she is still lacking.

As a professional editor, Yan Fei has her own understanding of storyboards, but there is still a certain gap with the level of top comics.

Xi Muhan was a little unconvinced, but she also knew that Shen Xin's words were correct. She was not a professional cartoonist. Moreover, she hadn't worked on the original work for long, and she didn't have a deep understanding of storyboards, so she had to hand over the pad to Yan Fei.

Yan Fei took the pad with a puzzled expression. After watching the storyboard of the first episode, she thought it was pretty good. When she turned to the next episode, she found that it was the 33rd episode. She could only scroll forward and found the 27th episode.

After reading this episode, Yan Fei compared the storyboards of the two episodes, then nodded and said, "So that's how it is..."

"What's wrong?" Xi Muhan asked hurriedly.

"Wait a minute... I'll read the contents of the first few chapters and the next few chapters..."

Yan Fei was not sure either, so she scrolled forward to Chapter 5, from Chapter 22 to Chapter 32.

Taking advantage of this time, Shen Xin drank a bowl of rice porridge and ate a deep-fried dough stick. Wang Wenhong also knocked on the door, and came to the studio with other assistants.

"What are you doing?"

Wang Wenhong also scooped up a bowl of porridge, and saw Yan Fei sliding the pad quickly, while Xi Muhan was staring at Yan Fei like a kitten, feeling curious immediately.

"Nothing."

Shen Xin noticed that other people's eyes also moved over, and changed the topic.

It's okay to talk about this kind of thing in private. If it gets out, it will be bad for him, Duomanwang and Masker. After all, he also feels it and has no evidence.

It doesn't matter to Wang Wenhong, but with the addition of five assistants, more people know about it.

"Where am I looking at the award-winning work of the Golden Paintbrush? The magazine must be very nervous about the sudden appearance of such a young author." Yan Fei handed the pad to Shen Xin, "I think... there is a little difference."

If Shen Xin didn't remind her, she would only read it once and would not think about the storyboard, but the comics after "Doomsday Rescue" are indeed not as good as the first 27 episodes.

Shen Xin took the pad, pulled out a napkin, and said to the others: "You guys eat first, I'll go up."

Xi Muhan's eyes widened, as if he was holding a breath in his heart, seeing that Shen Xin didn't intend to continue, Yan Fei also picked up the bowl and started to eat, so she also stood up and followed Shen Xin out.

Coming to the second floor, when Shen Xin was sitting in front of the workbench, Xi Muhan also pulled a chair,

Sitting opposite to Shen Xin.

"Brother, what exactly do you mean? It's because the storyboard is different, and the picture of the manga has become rough. I don't understand it."

Shen Xin scratched her head, puzzled and said: "These are just my guesses, if it gets out, people will think that I'm jealous of Masker, have pink eyes, and spread rumors about him..."

Shen Xin also doesn't like to judge a person behind his back.

"No. No one will tell. Besides, you don't have to be jealous of him... I just want to know the reason." Xi Muhan was a little depressed.

It's like giving a riddle without giving the answer. If Shen Xin didn't say it, she would be absent-minded for a day.

"The reason is simple. Compared with "Ding Shi", the storyboard of the first 27 episodes of "Doomsday Rescue" is better. After 27 episodes, the storyboard of "Ding Shi" should be better. Generally speaking, when a comic arrives In the later stage, the plot or structure of the story will collapse, but the painting skills and storyboarding will not decline. The latter two things require experience.

"It's like writing a novel. In order to attract readers, the early stage will be exquisite and exciting. In the later stage, in order to extend the length of the work, the structure of the novel may be loose, or even "water-filled", but the author's writing style is improved.

"The strange thing about this part of the comic is that the storyboards are different, which makes the story seem long-winded."

"Why does this happen?"

Xi Muhan picked up the pad, carefully compared the 27th and 28th episodes, and also saw the trick.

The storyboard of the previous episode is really ingenious, while the storyboard of the second episode is dull and blunt. Often, the content that can be expressed in one storyboard will be divided into two or three, and the rendering power of the storyboard will also decrease. some.

The painting style is stable, and the story is more attractive, but it seems a bit long-winded. Moreover, the fight is not as smooth as before, and key fight shots are often omitted.

"I guess, someone has edited the previous "Doomsday Rescue"." Shen Xin expressed her guess.

"Huh?" Xi Muhan was taken aback, "Is there such a person? Who will repair it for him?"

"Of course there is. For example, Sister Yan edited it for you, right? It's just that Duoman.com has a characteristic. Its editor is not responsible for specific cartoonists, and the structure of some cartoons has shortcomings."

"Then why didn't he go find someone to fix it?" Xi Muhan asked puzzled.

"I guess there are two possibilities. First, there is no need. As long as the quality of a comic is high enough, even if the story collapses in the later stage, it can still achieve good results. The length of chapter 27 is already very long, and the story gradually enters the climax. Tide, unless there are big fluctuations in the plot, readers who like this comic may keep reading it.

"Secondly, I can't afford a masker. This person's understanding of music is no worse than Yelaoshi, and may even be better than Yelaoshi. If someone of this level is asked to check the work, the masker will probably spend a lot of money. Besides, He may also draw his own cartoons, so he won't have time to read "Doomsday Rescue" again.

"Moreover, considering the cost, it is the most cost-effective to paint the previous content. The fact is also true, "Doomsday Rescue" did win the Golden Paintbrush Award." Shen Xin stretched her waist, speculating.
