No matter what you want to do now, what you will use it for in the future, it's always a work of art.

Before all the design work begins, Fan Zhe, as the main creator, of course, must first come up with a set of conceptual design.

Even if he were to do it from start to finish, the first thing to do would be the concept design, which is kind of a general outline that will determine the overall art style.

Of course, he is outsourcing after all, and he is doing the opening animation of someone else's game. These things, in fact, do not leave him much room to play freely. He really wants to make sure that the overall style of the short film is correct, but this style is limited, after all, it can't be too far from other people's works.

If Fan Zhe was lazy, he could actually take the reference paintings in the materials given to him by Lao Lu and directly use them as his creative style. Even, it is not impossible to directly ask that company to provide a large number of original paintings, and select some of them for modification.

However, the precision required for high-quality short films is still very different from that of games, and Fan Zhe thinks it is better to try to be as good as possible.

Since he has the 'dimension' in hand, Fan Zhe hopes to try his best to make a reputation.

Although, there has been no reply from Lao Lu's side for the time being, and it is not sure whether this outsourced animated short film can be followed, but Fan Zhe still decided to do it first, the construction period is too rushed.

……

When Fan Zhe started his work, there was a discussion in the company 'Giant God Games' because of his short video.

'Titan Games' is the game company that outsourced the animation at the beginning of their game.

When they just received the short video from Lu Yuxiang, they were shocked. Gao Yixiang, the chief planner of the project, expressed his shock in one sentence at that time: "! 450,000 can make such a short film of Awesome B? Give me a dozen, please! ”

However, when they made a decision in high spirits, someone poured cold water on their heads.

That person was the technical director of 'Titan Games', the American Mike Brown. Ramos.

He said, "I think it's a liar, can't you all see it?" ”

Half-baked Mandarin, but this guy's arrogance is fully expressed.

Looking at this red neck, Gao Yixiang's face obviously showed a not very happy look.

'Titan Games' is an independent game factory, they were originally just a studio, making some independent games to start, Gao Yixiang is one of the first founders of 'Titan God', and is directly leading the development team.

Several indie games have been made, the quality is very good, and the sales reputation is good, so that 'Titan' has changed from a small studio to a serious game company. Although it is not comparable with some large factories, it is at least out of the category of small workshops.

Their new work, "Assassination Squad", is a fantasy assassination game with relatively large ambitions and high investment. Even, the other founder of the company, Zhao Liqin, the boss who invested money at the beginning and was responsible for the subsequent operation, also directly recruited Ramos from a major game company in the United States as a technical director.

At the beginning, Gao Yixiang welcomed the arrival of Ramos. However, things gradually changed when the two worked together on the project team.

Ramos has always had a very strong sense of superiority, and when he opens his mouth, he likes to say things like 'how we are in the United States' and 'China's game industry is too backward'.

Of course, if it's just a sense of superiority, that's it. After all, although such words are very annoying, who makes the game industry in the motherland really not very angry.

However, when this sense of superiority is directly brought into the work, the problems that arise are enormous. According to Gao Yixiang's previous expectations, he Ramos is the technical director, so just do his job well, and the words that people say are not good to listen to, as an additional price for inviting others to help the poor with technology, just endure it.

However, he keeps beeping all day long about the gameplay, art, and every aspect of the project.

That's annoying.

As the contact time became longer and longer, Gao Yixiang also found that this guy could not only beep, the key was that the level was just like that, compared with the original technical director who was excluded before, it was even a little worse.

Gao Yixiang also has a guess in his heart that the reason why this product can be poached to China is that in addition to the fact that the salary is really high, it may be that he can't get along in the big game factories in the United States.

Otherwise, it is really a very powerful software engineer, and the salary of a large 3A factory abroad is also quite high, where can he leave his hometown and come to China?

White people's sense of superiority, love to shoot guns and fingers, and average strength, who doesn't hate such people?

The entire project team, almost no one liked him.

He jumped out to speak at this time, and what he said was actually something that had nothing to do with his work as a 'technical director', which naturally aroused the disgust of the other people present.

But there are always stinky feet.

"Mr. La, if you talk about it carefully, I also think it may be a liar." A seemingly sweet little girl spoke.

Someone answered, Ramos puffed up his chest and continued: "As far as the short film you just watched, the level is not bad, in our United States, although there are many teams that can achieve this level, the cost will be very large. Four hundred and fifty thousand, to make a two-minute short film of this level? This must be a liar, even top special effects studios such as Industrial Light & Magic and Weta Digital can't do it at such a low cost. This must be a short film that comes from nowhere, coming to cheat money, you Chinese like to do this. ”

The scene was awkward for a while.

said so much earlier, it seems to be reasonable, and many people are even a little convinced, and the result is that in the end.

Gao Yixiang is a violent temper, but he can't help this, he replied directly: "There are many American liars who like to do this, and Mr. Ramos knows this very well." ”

After the taunt of the pun, Lao Gao endured a little anger and continued: "This is a sample film that shows the strength of the studio, and it doesn't mean that we can make the same level in two minutes for four hundred and fifty thousand. Originally, according to our needs, it is completely acceptable to drop two grades from this level, in fact, even then, the budget of 450,000 yuan is also earned by us, why are you in such a hurry? Mr. Ramos, you're very skilled at changing concepts, have you practiced it? ”

"Pay attention to the tone of your speech, Chinese." Ramos stared at Gao Yixiang, he was a little bigger than the old tall man, and his momentum was still very strong.

But Lao Gao is not cowardly at all, time goes back a few years, and when he is a little younger, he is afraid that his hot temper will directly do this foreigner. Now that he is older, Gao Yixiang finds that his qi cultivation kung fu is much better than before.

"I've spoken very tactfully, Ramos, don't show me your arrogance, this is the last time I'll warn you," he said. ”

The two parted happily.
