Chapter 53: Photography, Recording, and Trailer (2)

After receiving the recording notification of the "Black Rock Shooter", Kana Hanazawa rushed to Kyoto at the appointed time.

Although all she needs to record this time is a 30-second PV, she doesn't even have a single line, all she needs to do is add some breathing and wheezing sound effects to the picture, but that's what the voice actor does, and that's what the so-called professional ethics are all about.

The actual work process is quite short, and the total length of the PV is only 30 seconds, so it can be said that she came to Kyoto to take two breaths.

As an industry that is closely related to animation production, there are always some quite interesting "rules", such as their salary and fees.

The salary of the voice actor is roughly determined according to the regulations of the voice actor association, and the salary is calculated according to the number of episodes of the anime, and the main basis of the salary standard is not according to the reputation and strength of the voice actor, but the age of employment.

In other words, the longer you work in this industry, the higher the salary, and as for the new voice actor, the salary of each episode of standard TV animation is between 10,000 yen and 15,000 yen.

At the same time, the so-called per-episode calculation means that as long as you stay in the studio, regardless of the number of lines, you will be paid according to this standard...... Whether it's being the main character, the lines from beginning to end, or being a passerby with only one line, or even learning an animal call, sometimes the group of people gets the same money.

Therefore, there are also advantages of playing tricks, at least the workload is much smaller...... If you don't care if you can be popular.

Because of this, "idolization" is an inevitable trend in the voice actor industry.

After completing the soundtrack and recording, and checking the footage repeatedly to make sure that there were no problems, this PV was finally ready for TV broadcasting...... And considering the time limit from the broadcast at this time, Heiyan estimates that he will have time to put such a PV.

Kuroiwa is very Hatsune in the same TV broadcast system, plus their internal connection, in the case of Fuji TV, Kuroiwa's PV broadcast is basically followed by Hatsune's character song - in July, Hatsune's promotional song was changed from PONPONPON to another song called "ふわふわ".

The PV of the Black Rock Shooter caused a sensation as soon as it was broadcast...... That's not possible, but it's inevitable that it can have a positive effect.

Overall, this PV is quite eye-catching.

Musically, his style is ethereal and depressing, with fast-paced piano solos followed by heavy metal percussion, torn electronic sounds and soft, soothing female harmonies mixed together to create a unique style...... Compared to the graphics, the music of Black Rock Shooter can be called extravagant, and the soundtrack called BRYNHILDR IN THE DARKNESS is only used in this pv, or it can be said that it is a "one-time" work composed specifically for this picture.

If there is a palace performance, this kind of "waste" is also reasonable.

As for the picture...... Large-scale camera movement and rhythm changes, fast scene switching and large-scale, wide range of light and shadow changes, clear picture details, empty cities, abandoned buildings; A single figure, firelight, cannons, explosions, heavy locomotives, unusually bright blood......

The picture quality embodied in this PV can be called one of the best works of the year.

Its expressiveness is more in the scene, the only character in the fast-paced camera switch is Heiyan itself, and her movements are not too intense, more in the soothing action to set off the atmosphere of the scene, while creating freshness and topicality, it can be regarded as saving the real expressiveness to the time when the animation is really broadcast.

After the pv aired, it means that Black Rock's production has really entered a state of "non-stop", which is very simple and directly reflected in their working hours, and getting off work after 11 o'clock in the evening has become the norm for Mad Poihat.

When most of the employees are working overtime, Gong Daiju will stay here regardless of whether he is busy or not, and it is summer vacation, so he can get out of his studies.

On the one hand, Miyadai is busy with work on the "Flying Witch"; On the other hand, he is not suitable to appear too isolated when everyone is busy, so he will stay here even if he is idle.

Today, Gong Daizu also stayed in the company, and at about ten o'clock in the evening, he decided to go out to breathe. After walking around the company, he felt a lot clearer. Then he stopped by the convenience store and bought a large bag of ice cream, which he stuffed into the refrigerator when he returned to the company......

Busy summers are naturally the most likely to breed irritability, so it's good to eat some cold food to reduce the fire...... Small companies also have small benefits, making it easier to create a sense of life and ...... Enterprises like animation companies will inevitably reflect a sense of life in some places, and the reason is very realistic: because some positions sometimes work overtime for several days in a row, they just live in the company, can they not have a sense of life?

"Sister Suzuki, has the show started?" After stuffing the ice cream, Miyadai came to the conference room here. Mad Poihat's workspace is compact, and it is both a meeting room and a projection room.

So there is also a TV squatting here, and today Gong Daiju stayed here to watch TV.

"It's about to begin, So-kun." Kayuko Suzuki said.

In addition to Suzuki, there were a few idlers in this small conference room at this time, who were either really idle for a while, or just came to relax and rest.

They're waiting for a Fuji TV show that is a new anime guide, and this program will be broadcasting some information about the Black Rock shooter today.

This is one of the few publicity work that Mad Poihat has done on her own, and it is mainly for Iwami Mai Rinka to be in charge of contact, even though she is not here now.

By 11 o'clock, the show started on time.

"Hello everyone, welcome to this episode of "CUTS", I'm your old friend Mamiko Seto......"

I don't know if it has anything to do with the use of a beautiful host who meets the aesthetics of otaku, it is said that this show has good ratings among similar programs.

Miyadai began to watch TV seriously, which was rare.

"About the new information of this autumn,I believe you already know what you should know,Especially for viewers and friends who often watch our programs,Many friends have already determined the drama to be chased in the fall,For example, many people like 'Burning Eye Xana'......"

"But there's a 'new' original work that has suddenly appeared in the new list, and the first PV has just been released."

"As far as we know, the animation project actually started in March of this year. Considering the production cycle of the animation, this kind of hasty work has never been favored, let alone the company that produced the animation that has never heard of it before......"

"So the first thing we're going to watch today is the first independently produced work 'Kuroiwa Shooter' from the animation company Mad Poihat.Works in Tokyo Prefecture!"

From the perspective of linguistic logic, it is a common practice to want to promote first, so why is this host ready to praise the Black Rock Shooter?

First, the Black Rock shooter has high quality, good painting style, excellent music, and good painting quality, which accounts for 99%.

Second, the senior sister stuffed money into this show, which is negligible.

Concentrate:

ふわふわ (light fluttering) - Makino Yuyi.

BRYNHILDR IN THE DARKNESS - THE EXTREMELY BLACK BRÜNNHILDE, OP, THE MASTERPIECE OF THE ABUSE GIRL YOSHI OKAMOTO LUN.

PS:

Yesterday I said a little bit about violet, my own position is not to blow the melon-eating audience, but when it comes to this work, there are always people who have a lot of opinions, with its current popularity has reached this level - if you don't blow it, it is black.

The "Human Bible" is not satisfied, what else do you want to read?

Yes, I just want to see the girl's final trip, can't I?

We often say that sales are not a measure of quality.,But since it's a commercial TV animation that has blown out sales.,In the end, whether you can shut up others still depends on sales.。

Still humanistic, violet can be a humanistic lion in March? March is the best work since the debut of Akiyuki Shinbo, and I don't think the "Human Bible" can compete with March in terms of atmosphere.

However, sales in March were on the 3000 level.

Words about the battlefield, human nature, destiny, and so on...... I don't think the "Bible of Man" can break through the zenith of the "dragon's dentist" in terms of storytelling.

If you want to regain people's hearts, then I'll go back and revisit Spirited Away.

As for the picture, in recent years, the Little Witch Academy, which has been known as "bringing animation back to its essence", the wrath of Bahamut GENESIS, which is not bad for money, and the new series of the old IP Lupin III, etc., have all sold mediocre without exception.

The best work that has been sold so far this year, the only work that breaks the wall is the large-scale mobile game advertisement Blue Fantasy, with sales exceeding 40,000, and the best work sold last year was Yuri on Ice, which was super violent and got 70,000 sales, not to mention that it directly entered the top ten in the history of animation sales; This is followed by the idol anime LoveLive! Sunshine!, the water group got 50,000 rolls that were not inferior to their predecessors.

So I'm just talking about the difficulty of selling objectively...... Everyone knows that the guaranteed 8w8 is a good-natured joke that fans express their love, and this joke has been taken seriously by now.

Excellent and outstanding, animation is not the same as being outstanding, and doing a good animation is completely different from having a selling point.

So can you learn from Yuri, don't talk so nonsense, and then slap someone in the face after getting the sales data, wouldn't it be beautiful?

In the final analysis, the sentence "sales are not the criterion for judging the success of a work" is wrong, and the criterion for the audience to evaluate a work better than another is the sales ...... As one-sided and superficial as it sounds, it is exactly what it is.

Otherwise, what you like is just what you like...... Of course, what I like is only what I like, so if what you like can't sell what you like, why do you say that what you like is better than what I like?

If EVA hadn't firmly occupied the first place in the sales list, would there still be so many people blowing this work? It is not the same to get 100,000 sales and 1,000 sales for the same work.

So most of the time I tend to say, "I like it so much", and that doesn't get in the way of other people's business...... Everyone should understand that the person who recruits black in the most popular work is the so-called fan, whenever there is a list, there are always people who brush the "where is my big XX", can't you see the "personal direction" written on the title of others?

Violet has begun to be pre-sold on Amazon, and a single volume seems to be more than 10,000 yen, which is only six or seven hundred yuan, how much does it cost to buy a set? So will you buy it...... You don't buy BD, I don't buy BD, at most I will make a membership or contract, and then ...... Let's watch the film honestly.

Sharing happiness is not the same as imposing something you like on someone else, and other people are not obligated to praise you for what you like, right?

Understand?

Well, yes, violet is also the "human bible" in my heart, so everyone is their own and don't bother me...... Look at my eyes, this sentence is sincere.

May God be with the Bible and with Marx.
