Chapter 638: Script and Casting
"Magic ** Catalog" is a film adaptation, and the script naturally needs to be remastered. Pen, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info??.?? `
For example, the American Hollywood-level hero movie version, although it refers to some original comics, uses the original book as nourishment and breaks and reorganizes. Even if the plot is exactly the same in the original book, when it comes to the movie version, the details will be hugely different.
The adaptation must certainly respect the original work, but it is impossible to respect it completely. Even if it is a Qiong Yao drama that respects the original work very much, in fact, the film and television adaptation still has to be rewritten, rather than directly taking the original book to shoot.
The adaptation of the movie needs to be more cautious, the whole movie is just over 2 hours, and a good movie needs to make the audience feel completely immersed in the plot, without feeling bored and distracted in these two hours. Therefore, the plot of the movie version must be more compact and exciting.
Hollywood commercial film script creation is required in the rhythm, a few minutes of a small **, more than ten minutes must have a big **.
The company has the largest script creation team in China, and naturally has learned a lot of Hollywood script creation concepts.
The professional screenwriting team of the little partner company received Wang Qinian's instructions, and naturally referred to and read the original works and homoworks. Eat the "Demon Forbidden" series thoroughly, and even, absorb some more interesting brain holes. In the end, the polished script has a more compact plot than the original book and a script that is more in line with the standards of commercial blockbusters.
In addition to the screenwriting team, Wang Qinian is also embracing all rivers to attract more outstanding talents to join and make this movie well.
For example, Hiroshi Nishikiori, the director of the TV version of "Demon Forbidden", and Yuichi Tanaka, the character designer, were also invited to the live-action film shooting team, because the salary was as high as 5o US dollars. Therefore, these two creators of the anime version also came to China to participate in the production of the film.
Hiroshi Nishikori is a veteran anime supervisor (director) who has gained a good reputation for the animation production of "Strange Jesuloli", "Azi Comics King" and "Magic ** Catalog?.?".
Of course. After the second season of "Magic ** Catalog" TV, Hiroshi Nishikori began to go downhill. On the one hand, countless fans of "Forbidden Magic" are strongly demanding the production of a third season.
However, Nishikori Hiroshi has no plans to make a third season. Instead, they tried to crowdfund, raising money to make new works. Then, of course, there was a shameful defeat......
Nishiki Bo's fight on the street, the DVD sales of the anime of "Magic ** Catalog", completely lost to "A Scientific Electromagnetic Cannon"!
Adaptation of fanart. The adaptation of the original work of slapping the face, this is the reason why the status of the brocade industry has plummeted.
Nishiki Hiroshi's "Magic ** Catalog" TV animation, the quality is not bad, and the mass audience who has not read the original work, watching this version, is obviously the most suitable. At the same time, its ratings are not bad, and the ratings are very impressive with many live broadcasts and rebroadcasts on major Japanese TV stations. At the same time, click-through rates on video sites. It's also very amazing.
It can be said that a large part of the influence of the IP of "Magic ** Catalog" is due to the TV anime version. But just because the DVD didn't sell well, Nishiki Bo began to be cold-eyed. At the same time, the third season of the "Demon Forbidden" anime has not been produced for a long time, mainly because of the poor DVD results.
DVDs don't sell well, mainly because the people who buy DVDs only have a niche house. The taste of the otaku. It's definitely different from the normal public.
From the perspective of the original book, they rarely bought DVDs after watching TV. On the contrary, in the same work, Sister Cannon, Kuroko, and sisters have a lot of scenes. It satisfies the very dirty psychology of the otaku. As a result, the DVD of "Electromagnetic Cannon" was a big hit, and the otaku announced that "The Electromagnetic Cannon of a Certain Science" is orthodox, and "Demon Forbidden" is actually a homo......
However, if you really want to adapt a movie, the audience is more than a house. So. According to the combination of the original book and the anime version of the plot of "Magic ** Catalog", it belongs to the king??.?? `
As for Yuichi Tanaka, he is also the character designer of the two works of "Demon Forbidden" and "The Electromagnetic Cannon of a Certain Science". Essentially, the two works can be considered sister chapters, with members of the creative team overlapping to a high degree.
In addition, Yuichi Tanaka has also participated in the design and production of the architecture in the "Spirited Away" anime in the past, and with such qualifications, he is naturally a talent with a few brushes.
"Mr. Hiroshi Nishikori, Mr. Yuichi Tanaka! Previously, your TV animated versions of "Forbidden Magic" and "Electromagnetic Cannon" were very good works. Wang Qinian said, "Please consult you, I hope you can help me reproduce the two-dimensional pictures and characters in a three-dimensional way." The design of costumes and props, the design of architecture, I hope you can contribute your intelligence to the film. ”
In the three-dimensional reproduction of the two-dimensional scene, some parts are naturally built and selected to create and select the required real scenes. In addition, some scenes need to be created with computer special effects.
Although there is a difference between the special effects work of movies and anime, there are similarities between the two. Some production software, film and television special effects are used, and animation production teams are also used.
For example, DreamWorks in the United States is the best example, DreamWorks' animation production team is very capable, and many of their animation production technologies are also used for live-action film production, so DreamWorks also has a strong film special effects team.
"Thank you Wang Sang for your trust!" Hiroshi Nishiki and Yuichi Tanaka couldn't help but be very excited.
As a veteran of the Japanese anime industry, it seems, Japanese anime is very strong. But in fact, the animation market is not very large, for example, the company is already a relatively large animation production company in Japan. But in fact, in recent years, it has mainly relied on the adaptation of light novels from Kadokawa.
Moreover, after the anime adaptation, the copyright sales in overseas markets are controlled by the major TV station giants. The derivative copyrights of various IPs, it seems that there is nothing to do with the animation production company, but it belongs to the major publishing houses that control the adaptation copyright of the original work, and no matter how much the derivatives make, what is the matter with the animation production company?
To put it simply, Japanese animation companies seem to occupy half of the world's TV animation market, but in fact, animation companies are still quite hard.
Being able to hug the thighs of a little friend can not only bring them a lot of income right now.
In the long run, the partner company can also bring them a large number of orders. For example, the little partner department also has a large number of copyrights and wants to adapt it into an anime. Once this kind of cooperation is launched, with the financial resources of the small partners, it is enough to make some half-starved animation companies eat until they are full.
……
In addition to the preparation of scripts, props, costumes and scenes, Wang Qinian also grasped the casting work very closely. After the news of the filming plan for "Demon Forbidden" came out, the partner company has received thousands of resumes for the roles.
At the same time, Wang Qinian's assistant is also in major film and television bases, and a large number of interviews are selected for actors. Of course, the important role needs to be determined by Wang Qinian personally.
When the protagonist of the last article, Wang Qinian finally decided to let the article. Because, the article is relatively young, and at the same time, the temperament is relatively sunny. In addition, there is a gold-plated work like "Journey to the West", which is also the element of Wang Qinian's determination to choose articles.
Next, in terms of the selection of actresses, Wang Qinian did not think too much about the achievements and qualifications of the roles, but dug up some newcomers with bright spots. This is a bit similar to Stephen Chow.
Stephen Chow's movie leading actor and supporting actor or something, they all like to use actors with achievements. Some heroines dare to start newcomers, on the one hand, newcomers may be more obedient and not arrogant. In addition, actresses sometimes need to be beautiful vases, there are many plots, and they don't need to be too acting.
However, the female characters in "Demon Forbidden" have too distinct personalities. For example, Mikoto Misaka is as heroic and a little tsundere as a character, so it's not easy to choose.
Also, Intix, a cute foodie, is not very easy to choose. In other words, Xiaoxiang is more than ten years younger, maybe she plays this Intix.
Kuroko Shirai this-perverted? It's cute and perverted.,It's not easy to choose.。
Teacher Xiaomeng, Lori's figure Lori's appearance, but she is an adult, which is another problem.
Wang Qinian returned home with heavy steps, lying on the bed, still feeling that these roles were difficult to choose.
"Every year, have you chosen the role of Mikoto Misaka?" Li Lingxiang suddenly had nothing to do and squeezed Wang Qinian's shoulder diligently and massaged him.
"No, it's hard to determine the role." Wang Qinian shook his head, "Many actors are not anime lovers at all, and they have limited understanding of the characters. In addition, those who do not conform to the temperament occupy the majority. ”
"Well, I have someone to recommend." Li Lingxiang suddenly turned on the tablet, tt live broadcast, "This sister is very interesting, I am sisters in lol, and the nest has a fateful friendship, I think, she is actually more suitable for playing Mikoto Misaka......"
"Don't make a fuss!" Wang Qinian shook his head.
"There's no trouble, do you know how popular my sister is?" Li Ling's aroma bulging expression.
Wang Qinian complained in his heart that he was powerless, online live broadcasts and Internet celebrities, how popular can he be? However, he still looked at the interface of the live broadcast curiously. Well, this anchor is very lazy and has long been out of the live broadcast. Of course, the IP name is a bit familiar - Chen Yi!
Nicknamed Sister, a well-known network anchor. Chen Yi'er, the first executioner, blowing b female holy hand, because of the sharp complaints, the singing is more enchanting, but it has attracted a lot of fans.
According to the information searched, her image is not a big problem playing Mikoto Misaka. But, can she act well?
"Wait, tomorrow I'll let my sister play Mikoto Misaka in the live broadcast." Li Lingxiang said, "My sister's fit is higher than those professional actors." (To be continued.) )
