"How so? Cartoonists may be under longer stress than illustrators, but if they can convey the story in their hearts to readers, the satisfaction and joy will last longer, right? Shen Xin said with a smile.

Illustration has the advantage of illustration, and comics have the characteristics of comics, Shen Xin also admits this, and, there is a saying that illustrators are indeed more relaxed than cartoonists.

This kind of relaxation comes not only from the workload, but also from the duration of a comic, which is longer than that of an illustrator, and the cartoonist has to maintain a nervous state at all times, even if he steps on the deadline line, hands in the original manuscript, and the next second he has to discuss the name of the next word with the editor.

Repeatedly, there is not always a moment of leisure.

If there is any motivation for cartoonists to do this, it is probably the love of cartoonists?

Even if you don't sleep for several nights in a row, you have to complete the original manuscript and change to other work, and the cartoonist should not have such a lot of perseverance.

A few people chatted for a while, Yan Fei got up and checked the comic manuscript completed by his assistant, and Shen Xin also glanced at his studio.

Before you know it, a few people have been chatting for a long time.

Lu Yingxue also saw Shen Xin's thoughts, so she coughed lightly, "Teacher, actually, I have two questions, and I want to ask the teacher's opinion." ”

"Huh?"

"That's right. I have a friend who is serialized on another website, but she wants to submit her next manga to "Comic Future", but she is afraid that she will not be able to adapt to "Comic Future". So, I would like to ask the teacher, what should I pay attention to if I submit an article to Comic Future? ”

"What do you need to look out for?" Shen Xin didn't expect Lu Yingxue to ask, "Is it a male cartoonist or a female cartoonist?" ”

Lu Yingxue asked this question, and he could understand that before the crossing, if he wanted to change stations, he would also have such considerations.

"Male cartoonists and female cartoonists have different creative directions." After thinking about it, Shen Xin added again.

"Cartoonist woman." Lu Yingxue said.

"How's that relationship with you?" Wang Wenhong was quite interested.

"Also...... All right? Lu Yingxue was a little embarrassed.

Wang Wenhong smiled and said nothing.

Shen Xin didn't want to embarrass Lu Yingxue anymore, so he took the initiative to take over the topic.

"The male cartoonist emphasizes the explosiveness of the rhythm, and the plot is high in "SLAM DUNK". When the tide is high, it will make the reader feel very burning, and even the blood boils. Female cartoonists are slightly weaker in this aspect, but they have the advantage of delicate feelings. So, if you want to be serialized in "Comic Future", you need to grasp this. If you plan to draw a royal road comic, you should also pay attention to the expression of emotions. ”

There are also some female manga artists who draw royal manga manga, such as "Inuyasha", "Governess", and even "Steel", and "Chess Soul", which is the original work by Yumi Horita, and when the expression of these stories is explosive, there is a feeling of inadequacy.

Compared with the manga "Dragon Ball", "Saint Seiya", "Jojo", and "Hokuto God Fist", I always feel a little less "taste".

But the comics drawn by female cartoonists are very delicate, the relationship between Inuyasha and Kagome and Kikyo, the brotherhood between Alphonse and Edward, and the relationship between Koko and Sawei who are also teachers and friends, are very delicate, which is difficult to see in the pen of male cartoonists.

Including "Ghost. The Blade of Annihilation", according to rumors, its author is also a female cartoonist, but it has not been confirmed, but Shen Xin prefers to be a female cartoonist, because the characteristics of this cartoon are more like the hands of a female cartoonist.

The fights in this manga are not difficult to see in shonen manga, but the emotions expressed in the manga far exceed those of other pillar manga.

If you read it carefully, the bond of family in this comic is obvious. Tanjiro brothers and sisters, immortal river brothers, butterfly ninja sisters, Kyojuro brothers, Muichiro brothers, and even villains, there are also fallen concubines and prostitutes. Husband and sister (although not brother and sister) all reflect the relationship of family affection, and tired, they also crave family affection.

It is these bonds of family affection that make the characters in the entire comic look like real people, not villains on paper.

The operation of "Pillar Annihilation Blade" makes this comic with a sense of sadness, which complements the delicate emotions of the original.

These characteristics are not possessed by most male cartoonists.

If a female manga artist wants to move to a magazine like "Comic Future", which is mainly aimed at juvenile readers, while having the characteristics of juvenile manga, her feelings, including family affection, must be properly expressed.

Lu Yingxue nodded, "I see." ”

He didn't draw comics for a long time, and when he heard Shen Xin explain this, he suddenly realized.

"Brother, why didn't you tell me this?" Xi Muhan looked puzzled.

"Do you still need me to tell me?" Shen Xin couldn't cry or laugh, and glanced at Yan Fei, who was checking the draft, "Sister Yan is one of the top editors in China, she must know this, but she didn't tell you." Besides, it turns out that the results of "Ding Shi" also show that her judgment is correct. ”

Xi Muhan bowed slightly, and when he heard Shen Xin's explanation, he understood.

"By the way, that friend of yours, what kind of comic do you want to create?" Wang Wenhong asked casually.

"Uh, it's Xianxia."

"What? Xianxia? Wang Wenhong said in a lost voice.

"yes, what's the problem?" Lu Yingxue wondered.

"No problem. It's just that the theme of Xianxia is relatively niche, and there is already a book serialized in "Comic Future". Wang Wenhong replied.

Comics of the same genre can easily influence each other.

"Really?" Shen Xin interjected.

"Teacher Shen, don't show such surprise? It's a very amateur, and that Xianxia comic has been serialized for more than a month. Wang Wenhong couldn't laugh or cry.

"I really don't know." Shen Xin shook his head, "What's your name?" ”

"Immortal fate. is the author of Xiaoli's subordinates. ”

"How?"

"A complete newcomer, listening to Wu Xiaoli, he seems to have served as an assistant to Mr. Wang Yunze, but the painting is not very good. It is said that he is a cartoonist who became a monk halfway, and originally studied history in college, but changed careers after graduation. ”

"That's okay!?" Lu Yingxue said in a lost voice.

"So, a cartoonist is different from an illustrator, as long as he can express the story clearly, and besides, he just can't do it well."

In District 11, it's not that there are no cartoonists who have changed careers to the circle of comics, so it's normal for cartoonists to change careers.

In addition, manga artists who change careers look at problems from a different perspective than ordinary manga artists, and drawing manga may have their own characteristics.

"How's the grade?"

"It's not very good, after all, the genre is more niche. If it was serialized in "Leap", there might be a market, right? ”

"I see."

Lu Yingxue kept this matter in her heart, but said in her mouth: "Teacher, there is one more thing I want to ask you." ”

"Please."

"What do you think of the studio?" Lu Yingxue said seriously.
