MTL - My Animation Era-Chapter 4 There are scars on the face, but there is a home in the heart!

  Chapter 4 There are scars on the face, but there is a home in the heart!

  Gu Miao agreed to share the copyright equally.

  He doesn't care about broadcasting rights, as long as he holds the derivative products in his own hands, then he will definitely not lose money.

   As for Gu Miao's company?

   Neither Minister Wang nor Gu Miao himself had considered their interests at all. After all, for the production of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", they neither paid nor provided anyone, so why should they divide the cake?

  He is an employee, not a slave.

  In order to prevent the company from picking peaches, Gu Miao specifically asked Minister Wang to transfer the funds to the account of a newly established company called "Wolf Fort".

   This is a shell company.

  Gu Miao specially found a scalper to handle the business, and quickly got him such a shell, and put the project of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" under the name of this company.

   If you don’t do this, you will definitely have to argue later, causing disputes over copyright ownership, or even lawsuits.

   Plan ahead!

  Gu Miao is also unwilling to think too badly about the company, but the example of the moose is in front of him, so he has to be prepared.

  The money has arrived!

  The project can finally start!

  In the name of the company "Wolf Castle Culture", Gu Miao recruited a group of original painters, animators, sound effects artists and script writers, and managed to pull together a team.

  Although they are temporary recruits, their work ability may be relatively poor, but "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is not a big production, and it is enough for now.

  Generally speaking.

The preparatory work of an animation work starts with proposing a project plan, selecting a topic, writing a proposal, communicating with investors or sponsors, assessing the expected benefits and risks of the project, discussing the script with the screenwriter, and finalizing the art style and character scenes set up…

  The whole process is extremely long.

   It may be as fast as two or three months, or as slow as three or four years.

  But Gu Miao couldn't wait that long.

  With a production budget of one million yuan, more than half of it was spent on recruiting people and purchasing office equipment. Who cares about the process at this time?

   The most important thing is to start working quickly!

  Therefore, after the rough script and art design were finalized at the meeting, Gu Miao invited several animators and original artists to jointly write the script for drawing screen shots, which is often called a "storyboard".

   "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" has officially entered the mid-production stage.

  Gu Miao personally designed the character.

   After many years, although he has forgotten all the episodes of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", he can still remember the art design and personality setting of the main characters.

   Just copy the original version and you're done.

  Most of the characters were designed according to the original version, but Gu Miao made some fine-tuning in the modeling and setting of some characters.

   Such as the beautiful sheep!

  The original version has such a bit of a "bitch-in-a-bitch" feeling, it really has a bad influence, so try to be more "kind and innocent".

   As for the controversial character setting of Lanyangyang, Gu Miao didn't make any adjustments or revisions because it was unnecessary.

  Whether the audience likes it or hates it, isn’t that all about enthusiasm?

   No one will reject the heat, right?

  By the way, there are rumors in the world that "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" was originally scheduled to be the first protagonist of Lazy Yangyang, but it was abandoned because of the name and personality.

   Leaving aside whether this is true or not, at least one thing is certain, that is, the first protagonist, Pleasant Goat, is really not very pleasing in the eyes of the audience.

  Too "Wei Guangzheng"!

  It’s a bit unreal, but the other lambs are more down-to-earth, with shortcomings and advantages, and the character image is more full and three-dimensional.

  With a positive role, according to the "theory of opposition between good and evil", there must be a negative role.

  The wolf clan headed by Big Big Wolf!

   It's a bit funny to say, "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" has been carefully crafted in the production process for many years... all the villains have been washed away!

  By the final stage of "wolf-sheep cooperation", this animation has abandoned the pure concept of "villain". Not only are all the characters good, but everyone is like a family.

   I can only say, outrageous!

  Probably this is the fate of this type of animation works. No matter what the early plot is, they will eventually have to enter the vicious circle of "there are no bad guys in this world".

   Pleasant goats are like this, and so are bears.

  Although the intention is good, after all, it is an animation for children to watch, and it cannot instill harmful ideas and values, otherwise it will have to be blamed for "destroying the flowers of the motherland".

   But is it really good to do this?

  Gu Miao shook her head, and decided not to think about these things.

   No matter how the wolves and sheep cooperate, that will be a later matter. In the background of the current story, even Xiao Huihui was not born yet, and Big Huilang can only be a "bad guy" through and through.

   Bad guys are bad guys!

  No matter how many wrong and stupid things Big Big Wolf has done, at least one thing is worthy of recognition, this is a good wolf king who cares about his family and loves his wife very much.

  There are scars on the face, but there is a home in the heart.

  As the most charming villain in the play, Big Big Wolf has many shortcomings, but also has advantages that cannot be concealed.

  He is a great inventor!

  If Qingqing Grassland also has a Nobel Prize, Big Big Wolf will definitely win it for many years. His invention, in a sense, has reached the "animation ceiling" level.

  Iron Man is a der!

   There is a way to come to the Qingqing Grassland to show you what a top IQ is. If you can't rub two-way foil and a time machine with your hands, you are also worthy of being called an inventor?

  He is a good husband!

  I wear a tattered hat that has been sewn countless times, but I wear a gorgeous crown for my wife. I would rather go hungry than catch frogs for my wife...

   He got puked countless times.

  When everyone felt that his contribution was not worth it, he said the touching "I love pan".

   Who doesn’t like a Big Big Wolf like this?

   Gu Miao doesn't care what others think, anyway, he likes the character of Big Big Wolf very much, and he has always been his role model.

   Besides, Big Big Wolf has a lot of fans.

   Most of them fell in love with this wolf king, who can be called a model husband and model father, after experiencing a lot of beatings in society.

  When I was young and ignorant, I worshiped Pleasant Goat. I just thought he was so smart and powerful. If only I were Pleasant Goat...

  But people have to grow up.

  As the audience grows older and more experienced, the "protagonist halo" shrouded in Pleasant Goat gradually fades away, and only then will they understand.

   "If you want to marry, marry Big Big Wolf, such a man is a role model", the lyrics simply sang into my heart.

anyway…

  If it weren't for the song "If You Want to Marry, Marry Big Big Wolf", the style of the song is too adult-oriented and really not suitable for children, Gu Miao would have thought it would be the theme song of the animation.

  Movie theme song is available.

  Compared to the theatrical version of the big movie with a fuller and thicker plot, TV animation is not suitable for this song. The original version of "Don't Look I'm Just a Sheep" is more appropriate.
