Kazusa Kawashima arrived early in front of the tattered house of Masaki Kobayashi and sat in the car and waited.

Waited from five o'clock in the afternoon to seven o'clock, and Masaki Kobayashi had not returned.

Considering that he was on his first day at work, he might have had an orientation dinner or something, so she went to dinner by herself.

After coming back, Masaki Kobayashi hasn't come back yet.

She waited urgently.

You won't have a second show after eating, right? Going to drink karaoke or something?

After waiting for another hour, Kazusa Kawashima decided not to wait any longer and took out her mobile phone to call Tsuko Hisaka directly.

~*~*~*

On this day, Masaki Kobayashi met with the original artist, painting supervision, animation, performance, photography, synthesis and others.

Although he still doesn't know much about the relationship between these people and how the whole animation production workflow came down, there are really many people involved under this assembly line.

It's really not easy to make an animation!

It is also not easy to make because you have to follow up all the processes.

You say that he is just a porter of materials, but it's not that simple.

Because after all, TA is not as simple as taking orders, delivering goods, and collecting money like delivery people, although it is not easy for delivery people to live.

Well, can this description of 'assembly line controller'?

No, the description of 'assembly line maintenance worker' may be more reasonable and accurate.

It's just that this maintenance worker was very busy, and it was not until 9 o'clock in the evening that Yuki Amamura and Masaki Kobayashi returned to the office building of cream.

This doesn't mean you're off work, it's not just about running, it's about working on your desk.

It is estimated that it will be almost eleven o'clock when I finish the work on the desk.

Besides, Ryozo Tomomatsu hasn't gone there yet.

"Xiaolin, come here."

Before Masaki Kobayashi's ass was hot, Jun Kumamoto came over to call him.

"What's the matter?" He walked over.

"Salary." Jun Kumamoto took him by the shoulder, led him to the conference room, and pulled out an envelope for him.

"10,000 yen, 10,000 yen, you see, this is the benefit of our relationship."

Masaki Kobayashi, who was a little tired, was in good spirits.

"Also, now that you can get off work, you have touched so many things on the first day, you have to go back and sort out your thoughts, right? This is also one of the benefits. ”

"It's still late."

"No, no, let's go now." Jun Kumamoto politely asked him to get off work.

......

......

Masaki Kobayashi left the office building in confusion and returned to his rental house by electric car + walking.

"Uh, Kazusa Kawashima?"

Masaki Kobayashi who walked up the stairs didn't expect Kazusa Kawashima, who was wearing a mask, to squat at the door of his house.

"You're finally back." She stood up and complained.

"You are, why are you here?"

"I'm waiting for you to come back and open the door."

“...。”

Masaki Kobayashi took out the key to open the door and walked into the house first.

The musty smell is heavier, and I feel like I have to buy some air freshener or something and come back and spray it.

"Can this room really be inhabited?" Kawashima and Sahide frowned.

"I can only live there." Masaki Kobayashi expects to work for at least two months before he has the capital to change his accommodation.

Because changing a house in this book is not just as simple as paying rent, changing to a new rental house, the money you need to pay for the first time is rent, deposit, gift money, etc.

The full set is calculated, and the monthly rent of 60,000 yuan needs to be paid for the first time is less than 100,000 yuan, and more than 200,000 yuan is considered normal.

Anyway, you have to have a budget of 3 or 4 per month.

"I'll rent you a house to live in." Kazusa Kawashima said.

What is it? Kanaya Zangjiao?

Masaki Kobayashi declined: "Thank you, no need." ”

"Yes, that's it!" Kazusa Kawashima spoke in a tough tone.

"If I say no, don't!" Masaki Kobayashi also said strongly.

It's a matter of a man's dignity, so this time he didn't silently accept her decision like last time.

Kazusa Kawashima bit her red lip lightly, stopped talking about the topic, and said, "A lot of work?" Working overtime so late. ”

"Hmm." Masaki Kobayashi poured her a glass of water.

Kazusa Kawashima, who was kneeling at the low table, took it, "It's better to change jobs, today is the first day of employment, and this will have to work overtime, how will I do it in the future." ”

Masaki Kobayashi sat cross-legged across from her, took a sip of water, and looked out the only window at the starry sky.

"That's good." Retracting his gaze to Kazusa Kawashima's face, he continued:

"I now know that the original painting only has characters, or only the main characters, and every frame seen on the animation is actually made by people with different divisions of labor, characters, backgrounds, special effects, etc."

The original art is the upstream of the animation production process, but there are only characters on the original painting, does this mean that the most important thing is the characters?

Masaki Kobayashi also doesn't understand why he uses the point of 'character' as a starting point.

Maybe the so-called story is the interaction between people, or maybe it's the reason why the animation industry exists by selling people and figurines.

In short, at the end of the day, he sorted out a small part of the process.

That is, the original artist draws the original art, and the original painting is given to the performer, painting supervisor, etc., and then these people make instructions for correcting the acting skills, painting style, or painting errors, and then send these correction instructions back to the original artist for correction.

Just in the part of painting the main characters, you have to reincarnate several times.

"There's also the word cut, which means 1cut for a shot, or 1cut for a continuous action, but I still can't figure it out, because it's hard for me to understand the words 'a shot' and 'a continuous action', and I don't know where their boundaries are. But there are two or three hundred cuts in an episode of animation.,It takes a lot of original artists to produce it at the same time.,There will be one original and two originals.... ”

Kazusa Kawashima went from kneeling upright to casually cross-legged, pressing his hands on the hem of the skirt between the crooks of his legs, and after a while, he turned to his right hand on the table to support his cheeks, and listened to him quietly.

'It takes two months to make an episode of animation', 'It's 23.98 frames per second' or something.

After listening for a while, she spoke: "It seems that you like this job." ”

Masaki Kobayashi's chattering mouth froze, then closed it and said flatly, "It's okay." ”

Kazusa Kawashima chuckled.

"What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, it's just that you're kind of cute."

“...。” Her beautiful tear mole suddenly became a little hateful!

Speaking of which, isn't there an animation that describes the animation industry? It seems to be called "White Box"?

It's a pity that he chased it, but he didn't watch it.

It's a bit of a pity, and it's also a bit of a book to be used when you hate less.

"But it's only 210,000, how much does it get after deducting taxes and various insurances? Also so much work and overtime. ”

"This is the job you introduced, I thought you knew?"

"I don't know! I just heard that it was harder, and it was arranged by Sister Tsuko, and that Jun Kumamoto was her younger brother. ”

"Sister and brother? No wonder, a surname Kumamoto is definitely not a brother and sister. ”

Otherwise, how could it be 'because of this relationship', and then be pitted!

"Not a brother and sister?" Kawashima and Sasa were stunned, and then rolled their eyes at him.

"What a mess, Sister Jinzi got married and changed her surname, are you yourself? It's unthinkable. ”

"Oh, I'm not."
