Chapter 420: No Choice

"Pretty words and expressions of determination won't solve anything. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Alice Kumamoto took off her flat glasses and put them aside, and her body fell on the office desk as if she had lost support and sighed softly, of course she understood this sentence, but someone had to jump out to play her role in the meeting just now. With her knowledge of animation and her level of drawing, she knew better than anyone in this meeting how difficult it would be to complete the "5 Centimeters per Second" animation project.

As the painting supervisor said, painting is too difficult, and the average original artist simply does not have the level of painting required by Yu Kamiya, even if you entrust an experienced original artist, the animation's requirements for details will inevitably lead to slow painting speed, and it will take until the year of the monkey to complete the animation without knowing whether you can complete an original painting in a day.

Obviously, the newly established [Yu-no-Kong] animation production company does not have the quality to make this animation.

"That guy from Kamiya is playing me like a fool!"

"But I can't help it..."

Kumamoto Alice was restless in her heart, and couldn't help but complain about Yu Kamiya, picked up the detailed animation plan document of "Five Centimeters per Second" next to her and studied it carefully, she didn't really think that Yu Kamiya would complete this animation project in order to trick her. This animation project information is very detailed, constituting an outline of animation production, including the general plot, important lines, scene roles, painting requirements, etc., and it is roughly estimated that it will take a month to complete this animation production project at least without exquisite original paintings.

She could see that the original painting was drawn with a computer board, but there was an incomparable charm in it, as if she could feel the difference between this illustration and the level. Coloring? How granular is it? Scenography? How well does it fit with the character's inner feelings?

"No, it's not everything, it's all about it, this original picture is too perfect, how can I draw such a original picture?" Alice Kumamoto's eyes gradually became serious, she stared intently at the original painting in her hand, and gradually the seriousness in her eyes turned into an unbelievable shock.

This original painting is too natural, too clear, too specific, even Alice Kumamoto, who is proud of her own painting skills, can't find the slightest bit of impropriety, as if the artist himself had seen such a scene and then recorded it with a camera, can this level of painting really be done on a computer? Can humans really do it?

Alice Kumamoto had used an electronic drawing tablet, but she didn't think that kind of thing could fully express the quality of this illustration, and the amount of drawing and the level of painting were not of the same magnitude at all.

She put down the original painting in her hand and rubbed her eyebrows to relieve the fatigue of her eyes, she couldn't understand the original painting drawn by Yu Kamiya at all, and she knew that even if she asked Yu Kamiya, she probably wouldn't answer how to create such an original painting.

It is impossible to animate a painting of this level.

After pondering for a long time, Alice Kumamoto picked up the landline phone on the desk and dialed Yu Kamiya's mobile phone number.

"Dudu Dudu~!"

"Hey." After connecting, Yu Kamiya's voice was heard.

Kumamoto Alice was inexplicably nervous, hearing Yuu Kamiya's voice and noisy ambient sounds, it seemed that she was still in a subway station or something.

"Mr. Kamiya, can you come to [Yuu no Kong] now... Yes, but there are many things I don't understand, so it's hard to describe them clearly on the phone."

"Don't have time?"

"So is it okay tomorrow morning? I'll reframe this production meeting according to your schedule. ”

"Because of your animation project of "5 Centimeters per Second", we don't plan to take a vacation for the time being."

"The decision is tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, I know, and I'll go and notify the other departments to oversee."

Hanging up the phone, Alice Kumamoto rededicated herself to the research on the production plan of "5 Centimeters per Second", even if she only had one day to prepare, she didn't want to participate in the next production meeting without doing anything, or she didn't want to judge the feasibility of this project according to common sense without understanding the slightest bit about the detailed animation project of "5 Centimeters per Second". She knows a lot about the animation aspects of District 11, but she lacks industry knowledge, so she needs to have at least an edge at the production level to qualify for the next production meeting.

・・・・・・

"Tuk-tuk."

"May I ask if the Kumamoto overseer is still there?

"Yes, please come in."

Alice Kumamoto, who was immersed in analyzing the detailed production plan of "5 Centimeters per Second", heard a knock on the door, and then saw a female staff member of the art department open the glass door and hesitated: "Supervisor Kumamoto, everyone has already left work, do I need to turn off the lights in the office when I leave?" ”

Kumamoto Alice was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the clock hanging on the wall, not knowing when the hands of the clock had pointed to 10 o'clock in the evening, and her desktop was messy with some white paper for writing and drawing, recording her analysis of every painting and every thought of Yuu Kamiya.

"It's already so late, so close it." She nodded.

"Yes, then I won't bother you."

The staff of the art department closed the glass door of the office, and in a short time the bright public office outside the door suddenly darkened, and the entire floor became dark and silent, and the cold of winter seeped into the bone marrow.

Kumamoto Alice put her right hand on the armrest of the chair and held her forehead, and glanced at the detailed animation plan of "Five Centimeters per Second" on the desktop, the amount of information is too large to be completely analyzed in a while, and she only focuses on the main field of research in charge of the art department - background, the most important place for the animation of "Five Centimeters per Second", which is also the most difficult point in animation production.

"It's impossible to restore the level of painting required by the superintendent of Kamiya, but if only the top level of painting is required, the current manpower of [Yunoku] is still not enough."

She picked up a drawing pen and wrote down her opinion on the drawing paper, calculating the amount of work required to complete the background of the animation.

In the middle of the night, the sound of traffic outside the window stopped at some point, and the tiredness hit Alice Kumamoto as if she had a lead block in her head, but she still couldn't sleep.

"I'm going to stay up late tonight... Forget it, my biological clock hasn't been adjusted anyway." Alice Kumamoto laughed at herself, she came to District 11 for nearly half a month, she couldn't sleep almost every night because of her heavy heart and unsuitability, although she felt tired, she was still cranky as soon as she closed her eyes, plus the work that Yu Kamiya gave her in the past few days and the pressure brought by that commitment made her have no choice.
