Keiko Matsushita, born in 1982, worked as a producer of CG in Toei, and then entered Production IG, and worked as a producer of many IG works, including “White Rabbit Sugar”, “Currently Research Second Generation”, “Robotics; Notes, “Hundred Days Red”, “Three Gods of God”, “Volleyball Boy!!” series, etc. IG’s word of mouth. It is also one of the initiators of the “Dancing Youth” project. .
It was the first talker to find a Panasonic filmmaker to ask what can be cooperated. There was no specific work at that stage, so the talks took a bunch of comics, and if there was any intention, it could be directly animated. Of course, in addition to personal interests, the selection of works will inevitably be considered incompatible with the production team on hand. The most obvious impression of Panasonic on the production team is “Dancing Youth”. When reading the original work, I feel that it is suitable for doing it. Supervision, the protagonist of this work also makes her very sympathetic. .
Panasonic’s evaluation of Banjin is a person deeply influenced by Jin Min. When Jin Min was alive, Banjin studied a lot behind him. In the original “Hundred Days Red” supervised by the original Hui Yi, Banjin was responsible for character design and painting. Supervising, Panasonic hopes that Banjin can also take this opportunity to learn the technology of the old-fashioned supervision of the original Huiyi. After such old-fashioned supervision retreats, the technology can be passed on to the next generation instead of being lost with retreat. .
So at this point, I think that I am very close to the protagonist of “Dancing Youth”, and I am slowly growing up and chasing the role of my predecessors. I was hesitant to do a season of animation or two seasons. If I do a season, I can only do the fourth volume of the comics. The story can only be said that the Chicheng brothers and sisters (He Shou and Zhen Zi) won each other, and the protagonist Duo Duoliang was the last. The plot is really unreasonable for an animation, so I decided to do two seasons and win the national competition. At this time, the original author Zhu Neiyou stopped for more than a year because of physical reasons. During the serialization stop, Takeuchi also gave the animation producer a lot of cooperation. In early 2017, the comics resumed serialization, but in the end, the progress of the animation exceeded the original, and finally The ending animation progressed just above the original, but the content was also based on the original outline of Takeuchi. .
In addition, other positions besides supervision are very important, because it is indispensable for social dance to touch the audience music. It can even be said that music has the same power as the picture, so I contacted after the contact with the board. Lin Youshu, who has worked together in “Volleyball Boy!!”, Lin used to be a new gymnastics athlete. It can be regarded as a kind of dance, so he originally wanted to do music related to dance-related works, and naturally he would not deny it. .
The scripter’s last Man Jian was invited by the board of Tsuki, and there was no script for the animation at the end, but he was responsible for the script and performance of the “Millennium Girl” stage play by Imihara, and I went to see the stage play. I met the end of the time. .
In order to challenge your own strength, this time, in the split stage, you will do the music on the mirror to indicate what you need to feel. The sound supervisor will add specific music according to the instructions of the supervisor. This sound supervision is Kuroda, and like Lin Youshu, the team of “Volleyball Boy!!”, Panasonic commented that he is a person who cherishes music. He believes that music does not match the picture, and the music is not understood by the audience. .
The character design of Kawada Takahiro is also the character design of “Volleyball Boy!!”, Panasonic is very fond of the expression and eyes of Kawada’s character. This original work also emphasizes the “power of the eye”, which is also very consistent with the characteristics of Kishida. . Kishida also said that the work of this person is very tricky. There are many lines in the original work, and it is necessary to balance the convenience of restoration and animation collective work.
In addition, the original Huiyi participated in the nearly four episodes of this work, which became a topic, because in the production of “Hundred Days Red”, the original Hui left the production site for physical reasons, and the position of supervision was temporarily replaced by Banjin. It was said that Banjin and Sato Masako were acting as assistants. It can be said that at that time, Izuzu was the supervision of “Hundred Days Red”, and at the same time, it was necessary to be responsible for the supervision of painting. The work of Banjin was very large, so the original Huiyi after the return of the promised will be rewarded after the Jinjin. Therefore, in the “Dancing Youth”, the original Huiyi helped to do some mirroring. Originally, I only said one book. Later, I made more and more. I finally made four books. Two of them were made by Panjin. I said that “13 episodes are the most desirable, I like thousands of summers.” In addition, the original Huiyi is a group of horse-born people, and the same as the birthday and the true son and sister, so I thought about how to shape these two roles. More stereoscopic. As a theater title supervisor, it is very rare to repeat the TV animations that are involved in the construction period. Panasonic is also very moved to such an animation industry master to participate in the work and share the experience with the staff. .
In addition, I.G’s old-fashioned animator Huang Wei and Yan Bao took the tenth episode of the performance and supervised and participated in the original painting. When Matsushita began to tell Huang Wei, Huang Wei was reluctant. Later, at the request of Banjin, he slowly moved. Of course, there was no idea that Huang Hao was all-inclusive at the time, but when the mirror was handed in, the quality was very high. High, there is a lot of shots that can’t be painted, and finally Huang Hao painted most of the layout. Huang Wei has a lot of shots of “I want to make it like this”, and finally I will do the work of the show. Packed down. Even so, there are not many paintings in this episode, and there are no more than 4,000 paintings for many episodes. Matsushita said that the works he is responsible for rarely reduce the number of sheets in a single episode to 5000 or less. The numbers went to seven or eight thousand. This is mainly due to the control of the number of sheets by the board of the Tsutsumi, and the idea of the words was conveyed to the performances of the words. In the case of a few sheets, the screen was also moved. It is also very exciting, completely let the audience feel that there is a lot of animation in the static part. .
In addition, the film is especially delicate on the character close-up. The upper and lower eyelashes of the character glasses are carefully drawn. The line of the look is extremely sharp and accurate. Panasonic said that if the line is not accurate, the lines on the face look like It is the wrinkles of the elderly, which is not beautiful and powerful. This is attributed to the efforts of the supervisor and the chief supervisor. The supervisor of this work even said that “I feel that I have been painting eyelashes all the time. This piece is an eyelash animation.” Not only the eyelashes, but also the lens and the shadow of the eyelashes. Out of this, to achieve this level requires the power of painting, animation, and coloring, and the coloring is very easy to make mistakes and change a lot. .
In the end of the film, the animation column is often animated and animated, because the motion checkers of the film all like the work of animation. The motion check not only does the correction, but also draws a lot of it, and it is very important. The lens, although in the industry often said that the position of animation is only the steps leading to the original painting, but Panasonic believes that the two separate occupations, each has its own important points, the lines of animation are directly presented to the audience, and this The side of the motion check itself has enthusiasm, will take the initiative to take charge of important shots, can only say that their love is extraordinary, full of a sense of mission to the work. .
The name of the general animation production is recorded at the end of the ED, and the production of “Volleyball Boy!!” and “Dancing Youth” are recorded at the beginning of the ED, along with the performance section. This kind of practice is actually pushed by Panasonic himself. On the one hand, it makes the children who make the production feel the responsibility, so that they are responsible for the end, and on the other hand, they want to tell everyone that no animation is done without production. The enthusiasm and technology that comes out of the production can be reflected in the film. The production is not the same as the other ones. It is equivalent to the producer of this episode, but the important position is not taken seriously by many people. So I deliberately put the name in front. I was quite opposed when I first started doing it, but basically no one said it now. If there is no accident, I will continue to do so.
Panasonic has a very respectful attitude towards the supervision of Banjin. Generally speaking, as the progress of TV animation progresses step by step, the workload of supervision will gradually increase. After the broadcast, the mental state of general supervision will decline, and Banjin is not like this. Throughout the whole process, I can keep my head clear and the work speed is not at all. Of course, because of the construction period, the supervisor has given up a lot of things that he wants to make. Therefore, Panasonic is grateful to the board of directors for supervision. On the one hand, he wants to apologize to Banjin. .
Panasonic said that as a producer, he used to go to the card pocket or say a few words when he was in the film, but he did not care at the time of “Dancing Youth”. First of all, how to do the animation should not be the producer’s management. In the future, I will try my best to avoid it. This is the work of the board and the supervision of the board. The supervision of the board is good. If the board of directors agrees, Matsushita hopes to work together in the future. Opportunity. .
