At three o'clock in the afternoon, the large conference room on the second floor of Phantom Animation is underway.

Xu Rui sat on the main seat and looked at the performance storyboard. This time, the storyboard of the "Classical Literature Club Series" was not completed by Xu Rui alone, but was entrusted to two other full-time performers. , The three of them work together, and Xu Rui will check the final performance.

"Regarding the performance method of this place, I think it would be better to use symbols, and it is more in line with the consistent performance style of the story."

A performer, Wei Kexin, who joined the phantom animation in the era of "Magic Girl Madoka Magica", said that his performance technique was inherited from Xu Rui, and he liked to make sorrowful operations.

"But the story in the last episode also used this technique. Will it be a bit tiring to use it in two consecutive episodes?"

The other performer is Li Hongyi, who entered phantom animation during the period of "Soul Eater Zero". He started as an animator, step by step to achieve the position of the performance, personal development and the development of phantom animation are closely integrated. Li Hongyi's performance style is more conservative and more stable.

"What do you think of Director Xu?"

The two said a few more words, no one could persuade anyone, so they could only look at Xu Rui.

"I think, um, use symbolic techniques, because the next long story will use more realistic techniques, so the audience will not be able to see similar symbolic techniques for a long time. Above all, symbolism is more appropriate."

Xu Rui thought for a while, then said.

"alright, I understand."

Seeing that Xu Rui had already made a decision, Li Hongyi didn't say much, but silently took notes.

It is said to be a painting meeting, but in fact it is a meeting combining the performance meeting and the original painting meeting. In Xu Rui’s words, only by maintaining good communication with the original painting can the work be produced more smoothly. Therefore, in phantom animation, unless Special circumstances, otherwise these two meetings are generally held at the same time.

"Regarding the painting instructions for Episode 6, I think there are some problems here..."

Yi Qianqian continued, and everyone immediately turned to the storyboard of the sixth episode and listened to her questions.

The painting meeting was going on in an orderly manner. Lin Shuyi sat aside, not daring to say a word, silently taking notes. She was still a little unfamiliar with the questions that everyone mentioned, the scenes mentioned, etc., and she followed the storyboard. Not up to the speed of everyone's discussion.

These people, it's as if they have all the storyboards of more than a dozen episodes in their heads!

Lin Shuyi was in a hurry. She had no time to take care of other things. She could only try her best to remember the content of the discussion and the skills mentioned by the predecessors.

When the meeting was over, everyone got up and returned to their positions, but Lin Shuyi was still tidying up.

"How?"

A voice made her raise her head, but it was Yi Qianqian.

"Uh, boss, sorry, I'm still not familiar with storyboards..."

Lin Shuyi stopped her movements immediately and raised her eyes to look at Yi Qianqian as if she was facing an enemy.

"It's okay. You didn't participate in the painting of these episodes. It's normal to be unfamiliar."

Yi Qianqian didn't blame her, but pulled the chair away and sat next to Lin Shuyi.

"It's just that in the future, if you can, you still need to read the entire storyboard as much as possible. This is not a mandatory requirement, but a way to grow quickly."

Yi Qianqian's words today were a lot of surprises. Although they were still an understatement, Lin Shuyi felt a lot softer.

"The way to grow up?"

Lin Shuyi asked, tilting her head.

"For example, Wei Kexin, this performance likes to use exaggerated effects to express the story, then you need to open your mind to paint for the painting instructions he requested, and for Li Hongyi's painting instructions, you may need to use more stable acting skills to express."

Yi Qianqian said, turned her head and glanced at Lin Shuyi's meeting notes.

"Different performances have different tendencies. Understanding these tendencies will help you draw better and reduce rework."

"So that's it..."

Lin Shuyi nodded seemingly.

"In addition, although you are not responsible for the painting part, you can also study these sub-mirrors carefully, imagine what kind of expression will be used if you are responsible for it, and then compare it with the positive film and think about why he used it. It’s that way."

Although Yi Qianqian’s words were not long, they made Lin Shuyi feel a little bit. Indeed, although she took the cards that she was responsible for seriously at the beginning, she didn’t pay much attention to other people’s paintings. For her, it might just be done. I have done my best in my own work.

"Not only the original painting, but sometimes you also need to understand the performance and the director's sub-mirror. Although the original painting only needs to be painted, it is not just about painting. If you only want to be a painter, then you can simply hone the painter. However, if you want to develop in this industry, it is necessary to understand the entire animation production system."

Having said this, Yi Qianqian stood up and patted Lin Shuyi's shoulder lightly.

"Don't panic, everyone needs room to grow, just go forward step by step."

Hearing Yi Qianqian's words, Lin Shuyi felt as if a big rock had fallen to the ground in her heart, and she immediately relaxed a lot.

It turns out that she has been paying attention to herself.

Moved, Lin Shuyi also subconsciously asked.

"Uh, boss, I have a question."

"Just call me Qian Qian, or sister Qian Qian."

Isasa stopped to leave the meeting room and said.

"what is the problem?"

"This question may be a bit private, uh, I want to ask, why do you...Sister Qianqian, do you like to wear dresses so much?"

The moment he asked, Lin Shuyi regretted it. This kind of question related to personal interests seemed a bit impolite.

"Is this."

Yi Qian briefly glanced at her dress, her pink skirt with fawn embroidery, and her upper body with a grass green pattern.

"You can understand it as'armor'."

She said.

"armor?"

Lin Shuyi didn't quite understand.

"When I was a newcomer to the original painting, once, because of my mistakes caused a major problem, although in the end due to the remedy of the predecessors, it still did not affect the animation broadcast, but I also received a lot of criticism. , That's what happened when I was in the phantom movie, the old phantom movie."

For the first time, Lin Shuyi saw the slightly nostalgic expression on Yi Qianqian's face.

"At that time, it happened to be my birthday, but I was not in the mood to spend it. On that day, when I was ready to go home in frustration, I received a gift."

Asaasa said, the corners of her mouth smiled unconsciously.

"That is a dress that is not pretty. To be honest, even with the aesthetics of the time, I don't think that dress is pretty."

Although she said that, she carried an unprecedentedly happy tone.

"But that did **** out of the trough. After that, as long as I wear a dress, I will feel full of power, full of power to fight the world."

"Who gave that dress?"

Lin Shuyi asked subconsciously.

"Maybe that guy himself has forgotten that he did such a thing. He was still a high school student at that time. Maybe he just saw an animation that made his whim. UU read the clothes he bought at www.uukanshu.com."

Iqianqian didn't say the other party's name, so she just replied.

After she finished speaking, she walked out of the conference room, and when she returned to her seat, she found an extra gift box there.

"happy Birthday."

Xu Rui smiled and motioned to Yi Qianqian to take it apart.

She opened the gift box, and it turned out to be a dress, which looked much better than the one a few years ago. Both the material and the design are excellent.

Yes, today is Iasa's birthday, but she doesn't like to celebrate these days, so she didn't tell anyone in the company.

But Yi Qianqian knows that she has always known that there is always someone who will not forget this day and always give gifts on time every year.

"Thank you."

Iqian replied faintly, the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously, she put away the clothes and the box, and then picked up the pen.
