Chapter 248: The first step is to set the tone for the work
When the time came to August, it happened that this year's 2014 National Table Tennis Championships (U13 group) (it seems to mean that the age is less than thirteen years old) and the National Junior Table Tennis Competition (Southern Division) was held in SH Cao Table Tennis.
This time, a total of nearly 200 athletes from 23 teams from 14 provinces and cities in the southern part of the country participated in the competition. In this competition, the top eight athletes in men's and women's singles will directly qualify for this year's National Junior Table Tennis Championships, and the school-age athletes will also be eligible to participate in the National Youth Table Tennis Training Camp.
Through on-site observation of the event, as well as an understanding of various similar events across the country, Rococo soon also had a clearer understanding of China's top-down table tennis pyramid. It can only be said that the reason why China's table tennis can be so strong is really not unreasonable.
In this competition, SH Cao Ping also got very good results, both individual and team champions.
Rococo took all the pictures of the game into photos, and successively converted them into two-dimensional pictures, when Rococo has prepared everything such as character design, story scene design, story plot design, etc., next, Rococo can also try to officially start the creation of animation.
This time, Rococo plans to make an anime related to table tennis. The protagonist is a facial paralysis, when she is only four years old and still ignorant of table tennis, her father is already teaching her how to play table tennis, and discovers her talent in table tennis. Well, her dad is in a wheelchair and teaching bit by bit. Then, as expected, her father died two years later.
After her father died, she was sent to a professional table tennis sports school to study, instead of taking the route of an ordinary school, in which she met many awesome characters who would appear in the future. However, the story does not start with the protagonist when he is four years old, nor does it start with this experience in a sports school, but from the protagonist to a general junior high school again, in an accidental boy snatching a girl's table tennis table, the protagonist easily abuses and kills boys of the same age, and then is discovered by the teacher, intending to let the protagonist go to the competition for the school.
The protagonist refused at first, after all, there was a reason why she was not in the sports school now, but because of the girl she helped grab the table tennis table, she finally had to go back to the old way of playing table tennis.
Well, anyway, in the first episode of the animation, there is a scene where facial paralysis is practicing with her father, and it also indicates that her father is almost about to be taken by a dog. After that, the picture directly turned to the table tennis table conflict, as for what happened in the middle, and then supplemented and improved step by step with memories, especially in the experience of the sports school.
When the staff of the Hangzhou animation production base read the script designed by Rococo and the design of other aspects, more than 200 people were stunned at once. I won't say much about the good script, both the characters and the scenes are very Chinese, with an inexplicable down-to-earth feeling.
"Why is this happening?" Everyone was stunned and couldn't think of a reason. They felt that this time Rococo's work should have created a new style of painting. This style of painting gives people the impression of being beautiful, semi-realistic and fresh and natural. And this may have something to do with the fact that Rococo likes to accept challenges and uses the hair color of black anime characters. Well, B is so awesome, he has to use different character hair colors to make the distinction between characters more obvious, and Rococo actually gave up the change of hair color, and tried in vain to use the body height, shortness, fat and thinness to distinguish different characters, which is simply bold.
It's just that's actually right, after all, if you make your hair color colorful, then it's not China, and the painting style will instantly move closer to the sun, and then the sense of disobedience will come out instantly, making people play immediately. It can only be said that Rococo was also forced to be helpless.
The name is currently tentatively "Ping Pong", and the next work arrangement is that everyone needs to know every action of playing table tennis. To this end, Rococo also let the whole company go out to the scene of various table tennis competitions to draw and understand for two months.
Other companies organize tours, but Rococo organizes a table tennis match together, and everyone has a camera, a mobile phone, and a drawing board, etc., and only when there is a chance, they practice how to draw. The real scene is like this, but what if it is changed to the heroine? If it's the heroine, what will the scene be like when doing this action? This is especially important for several original artists, because their work will influence the subsequent creation of others.
Rococo will select at least four original artists from the company's 200 artists to match his own creations. Of course, who will be used in the end depends on whether their final work can meet Rococo's expectations.
In fact, it can be said that this is a process of mutual learning, what Rococo has set down is not Rococo himself, it cannot be changed, if others feel that Rococo has something to improve, Rococo will also improve accordingly.
It's just that, just like many domestic painters now, the level cannot reach the expected vision of Rococo, so Rococo must also make a start, preliminarily set a tone, and then let these people follow and improve.
Set the beginning, and then Rococo only needs to wait, the most important thing at the moment is to be able to cultivate the original painting that can cooperate with himself, otherwise if Rococo is allowed to paint thousands of original paintings by himself, then Rococo himself must not paint himself to death. Your name, Rococo took two years to draw, Rococo doesn't want to spend another two years, you have to use everyone who can use it.
Because of the "Your Name. ", so the morale of the two hundred animation workers is also booming, and it can be felt that the era of Chinese animation is coming, and they are likely to be the pioneers of this era.
After that, in many table tennis matches, whether it is the referee, the participants or the family and friend group, you can see such a very strange scene, and I don't know where these people come from, one is hundreds of people (including another hundred scattered to different places) after they come to pat and draw, from time to time with the companions next to them to exchange two sentences, but also with the pen to compare the players on the field. A curious viewer took a closer look and found that everyone had a notebook in their hands or simply a drawing board to draw there.
"Hey, brother, what are you doing here?"
"Confidentiality."
However, although it is a secret, the people who eat melons can still see that these people are drawing comics. Could it be ...... Is it an artist from an animation training institution who comes out for an internship? The people who eat melons look at the works that have been painted, how to say it, the feeling of wanting to see it is already out, because he really didn't expect that the painting skills of these guys are so good and so exquisite. (To be continued.) )
