Chapter 125: Officially Begins!
Considering that it is approaching the end of the year, and there is no precedent for building an animation production team in the game industry, Gu Feng wants to recruit a fairly capable animation production supervisor, and if the salary is low, it will be difficult to attract real bosses.
After all, when someone comes, he has to help him build a whole professional team from scratch, and even if it is delayed until the next year, it is impossible to recruit people with the average market price.
Therefore, Gu Feng waved his hand very angrily and directly gave an annual salary of 50% of the market price.
As soon as this recruitment information came out, it was like kicking the ass of the animation circle, attracting the attention of the animation circle.
The news spread extremely quickly in the circle, after all, there were many people in this circle who were diving and fishing on various platforms, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the whole circle knew about this shocking news.
A game company is hiring a senior animation production supervisor with a high salary!
can give such a high salary, and you know that the ability requirements are definitely not low.
It's true,Nine out of nine animators can only weakly say "excuse me" after reading the recruitment requirements, such a demanding requirement In their opinion, there are only a few people in the industry who have the opportunity to meet it.
Although it has been confirmed that this kind of good thing has nothing to do with themselves, this does not prevent them from being curious about who will win this position in the end, can't be the party, and can't be the melon-eating masses?
The recruitment requirements are also not written much, which is quite concise.
In addition to more than 10 years of experience in action production, the requirements also clearly mention that there must be at least two relatively successful animation works, have team management experience of more than 50 people, be very familiar with the entire process of animation production, and be able to actively learn and use new technologies......
The effect of the banknote ability is significant, after all, people are not stupid, although it is a little more than a month from the end of the year-end bonus, but the opportunity is not waiting for anyone, even if the year-end bonus is issued for half a year, it is not comparable with 50% more salary every month.
In just one week, Gu Feng received more than 20 resumes, and after eliminating one-third of the resumes that did not fully meet the recruitment requirements, he personally interviewed the rest of the people, and the final candidate made him a little laughable.
Wang Meng, 35 years old, has been in the industry for 12 years, and has many representative works, including but not limited to "King of the Forest", "Wild Cretaceous", "Wine in the Middle", etc.
Naturally, there is no need to say about the ability, but it is obviously not these that make Gu Feng cry and laugh, but this old man he knows.
Two months ago, Wang Meng personally led the team on a business trip, and was responsible for the CG production of "StarCraft".
During this period, the other party's wife also came to visit her daughter once, and Gu Feng was very envious of his well-behaved and sensible daughter.
After all, he has already had the experience of cooperating once, and Gu Feng absolutely recognizes Wang Meng's ability, but after all, he has just cooperated with New World, and digging into other people's walls when he turns his head still makes him feel a little unhappy, even though this wall foot was sent to the door by himself.
In fact, there are also people who are more capable than Wang Meng among the interviewers, and the reason why Wang Meng was finally decided.
First, because the two sides have already had cooperation experience, and they know each other a little, just like Gu Feng's ability to trust Wang Meng, Wang Meng is also quite convinced of this young boss, in the final analysis, Gu Feng has the most essential difference between Gu Feng and those leaders who don't know anything and can only point fingers, that is, Gu Feng himself also understands technology and animation production.
Second, Wang Meng is only 35 years old now, the youngest among the interviewers with an average age of over 40 years old, and Wang Meng is 187 cm tall, his arms are about the same thickness as Gu Feng's thighs, as his name suggests, he is a real Mengman, and at first glance he is a person who usually insists on fitness. Such a physical quality is neither afraid of being able to shake his subordinates, nor is he afraid of getting sick and asking for leave at every turn.
Three,That's a matter of personal style.,Wang Meng's masterpieces are mainly based on mature animations.,To put it simply,It's that children feel enthusiastic when they see it.,Adults won't feel naïve and bored when they see it.。
This also happened to meet Gu Feng's needs. After all, Gu Feng didn't bother to build an animation team to do "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", the main force of the game is mainly Mengnan in his twenties and thirties, so the animation he wants to do is naturally an animation that Mengnan also likes to watch.
During the interview, Gu Feng also made it very clear to Wang Meng that the animation department is an empty shell for the time being, and all the manpower required needs to be recruited by himself, in line with the principle that laymen don't know how to do BB, this kind of thing involving professional ability Gu Feng does not intend to mix at all.
Wang Meng was very confident, and his chest was beating loudly, so Gu Feng could just rest assured that he would leave this matter to him.
As for the equipment, I bought some equipment when I was doing interstellar CG before, but more of it was brought by people from the New World from Shudu, so the equipment still has to be purchased in a big way.
The office space is also okay, it is enough for the time being, like the general daily motion capture venue, basically a small room can be done, the kind of large venue that needs at least the size of a basketball court, and it is really necessary to rent a space when you need it.
After Wang Meng joined the company, the recruitment of the animation department was also carried out rapidly.
In fact, the outside world has already guessed when Chuxin was openly recruiting animation production supervisors, and now seeing Chuxin suddenly put out a bunch of job recruitment information related to animation production, even a blind person can see that Chuxin is obviously going to make a big move.
The requirements for other positions are not as high as those of the supervisor, and the difficulty of recruiting people is much smaller, but because there are more positions and numbers to be recruited, even if Wang Meng faces more than a dozen people every day, it is almost the end of the month, and there are still less than 30 people in the animation department.
However, although the people are still a little worse, they can finally start operating, Gu Feng convened a meeting with everyone in the animation department, told everyone about the general situation of "Pokemon Garden Tree", and then used the original Pikachu painting, 3D modeling, and skill special effects made by himself to demonstrate the art style and combat style of this animation.
And the most surprising thing for everyone is that the plot, Pokémon concept draft, storyboard script and other literary and artistic work of this animation are basically led by Gu Feng himself.
It was only after they came in that they learned that StarCraft's CG, which was comparable to a blockbuster movie, was actually a storyboard made by Gu Feng himself.
Cow wow!
What makes everyone even more stunned and shocked is that the production of "Pokemon Garden Tree" has some completely different aspects from other animations.
For example, this animation will be promoted with the same name, with the purpose of creating a popular IP and ultimately serving the creation of the game.
And during the production process, Gu Feng clearly mentioned some new ideas for the use of technology, such as using real-time motion capture to make the actions of characters, and even the action design of many Pokémon can also learn from real animals, such as using the advanced physics engine in the game to apply it to animation production......
These are good ideas at first sound, and as professional animators, they feel that it is feasible just by hearing it, and this kind of technology that has been used for a long time has never been thought of before.
In addition, Gu Feng also said that the dubbing work, sound design, and middle and middle songs of the animation are all done by the company's professional music and sound effects team and dubbing team. Compared with the helplessness of other animation companies to find a dubbing company, they may have to catch strong men from the company, and the professionalism shown by the original intention has doubled their confidence.
Finally, on December 28, "Pokemon Garden Tree" officially started!
