Animated film “Young boss is a primary school student! With excellent scripts and paintings, the overwhelming quality has won countless applause in many theatrical animations of last year, and has been closely watched by the industry. All of this has been accompanied by many of Ghibli animated films. Inseparable. This time, with the release of this Mirror Collection and the launch of Blu-ray & DVD, we will explore the mystery of this production from the interviews of Takatsuki Supervisor
As the TV version, “Young boss is a primary school student! “The owner of the DLE, a supervised and animated production company, has been a bicycle friend supervised by Takahashi. In the vacation after Takahashi finished Miyazaki’s “Wind”, Gu Dong took the TV series plan. I found Gao Song and hoped that he could help draw a few impressions of the character. Gao Wei began to read the original novel, and then helped draw 13 characters, but the sorghum at this time simply painted a few pictures in a busy mood, because “the young boss is a primary school student! The original work of the children’s literature for girls is somewhat contradictory and does not intend to participate in this work. However, in the past two years, the plan has not been moving, but the sorghum is a little anxious. The TV version of the plan has been delayed, and may even be ruined. However, Gu Dong said to Gao Song, “I hope that the role of your painting will be moved in the form of a theatrical version, and the position of the supervised position will be handed over to you…” Gao Hao has been doing the work of the original painting for many years, and he also wants to try After doing the supervision, I took the stall. At this point in time, the original work has not yet ended, but it has been decided to release the final volume. Since he was asked to take full-time supervision, Gao Hao could not escape if he wanted to escape. Then it is the adaptation of the original volume from the first volume to the final volume of 20 volumes, or the original chapter of a volume is extracted separately, which becomes the first problem. In the end, Gao Song decided to adapt the whole volume, completely describing the growth process of the young boss, the story’s protagonist Guan Zhizi = Xiaozhi
In the past, the two OVAs directed by “Golden Eggplant” were also released in the theater, but it was a medium-length work with a duration of less than one hour. This time it was a 90-minute long movie, but Gaochun did not have this time. The doubtful place, “It’s just twice as big as “Eggplant”.” Gao Wei said that he was used to simplifying the content into short essays when writing emails, so he thought he was good at summarizing a long series of plots into several scenes to promote The unfolding of the story
When you want to adapt the whole volume, there is already a rough blueprint in Gao’s mind. The first half of the original work is mainly around the operation of the hotel, while the second half is based on the devil world, and the magical atmosphere has become more intense. Gao Wei hopes to save the latter half of the elements as much as possible. The elements of the former half of the hotel are mainly concentrated in the 90-minute movie. The first volume to the final volume tells the whole process of the growth of Xiaozhi to the big screen. The opening of the 6th volume of Glory’s water collar made him impressed and the main axis of the film
About the video part, because it is a story about the hotel, the high-ranking sorghum, who is not very familiar with the hotel’s operation and reception, reads related books on the one hand, and takes the art team to the hot spring hotels around the city on the other hand. When he arrives at the attractions, he will buy a few local magazines to learn about the origins of these hot springs. After some investigations, Gao Song discovered that these hot springs were originally used as the birthplace for the treatment of wild animals. Therefore, from this impression, the idea of adding “the god of music” to the drama was born. The god of music” here is the offering. The song and dance of the gods. And I hope that the “God” will end up and put it at the beginning and end of the film. At this point in time, Gao Song has already had a specific brain hole
Occasionally, Gao Qiu remembered that Miyazaki had recommended to him a hotel in Kyoto called “Mimei Villa”. According to Hayao Miyazaki, “the female boss of Meishanzhuang is elegant and dignified”, it seems to have gone. If necessary, I will make an appointment with the other party. The female treasurer of Meishanzhuang was born in Kanazawa, and she was well versed in tea ceremony. Gao has also seen in many books. The operation of the hotel is inseparable from the cultivation of the tea ceremony. The cultivation of the tea ceremony is also a compulsory course for the hotel. Under the reception of the proprietress, Gao Song deeply felt the profound cultural heritage of the tea ceremony and made people feel impressed
In addition, Gao Wei also attaches great importance to Xiaobian’s cute little movements. Before painting, I must first realize that “Is this kind of action made by the sixth grader?” If it is smaller, it may let her go straight. She can walk and twist, and a sixth-grade elementary school child is more or less sensible, but in the eyes of adults, her figure is still relatively happy
During the preparation period, Gao Song painted many impressions. Gao Song said that these were all painted at the time. These impressions are mostly unrelated to the original, mainly to grasp the feelings of the season, such as squid, red leaves, bright The scenery of the temples such as the Kyoto Temple, while looking at the photos, I hope to use these beautiful scenes in the works, of course, as a reference for the images. I did not expect to do this when I was doing “Eggplant”. At that time, even the script was not drafted, and I could directly modify it on the comics. The original Gaochun also wanted to apply this practice in this work. After all, I painted myself. The speed of the split mirror is too slow, so the overall progress is dropped, and you don’t want to drag everyone down. However, this approach does not work in this game. Now the network is also convenient, in addition to the field to take materials, you can also directly search the material online. In addition, Gao will also ride around on his favorite bicycle. Every time he arrives in a beautiful place, he will stop there for a while, pick up the brush and record the scenery he sees. Whenever I want to do it again, he will visit it again. Although these landscapes can be recorded with pictures, the feelings seen by the naked eye are different. The scenery used in the images will vary according to the works, so even There is no such thing as a holy land tour. Therefore, the animation does not completely copy the scenery in reality, but it is beautified according to the judgment of the supervisor
Gao said modestly, the art backgrounds in the works of Hosoda and Shin Hiroshi are very delicate, compared to their own expressiveness. In the past, in addition to painting the mirror in his own supervision, he also painted the TV anime “Dangerous Investigator” adapted from the original Puji Naoki. Gao Wei said that he didn’t pay much attention to what he was when he was painting the mirror. Now he basically doesn’t watch TV animation. He didn’t watch many movies in the past, and he didn’t care much. For the performance of Hosoda Shou and Xin Haicheng who are good at big screens, Gao Wei thinks that he is far from good, so this layout is also very general. The bust and the big face are used in more detail. On the one hand, it is based on the consideration of the original painting, on the other hand, it is also a budget problem, so the monotonous angle is also used more. Gao Wei said that these are the topics he will face in the future, and will emphasize the performance on the screen. In the past, he did not treat a work as an animation. In his mind, he used the real character of the comics. The way to show, and now what you can do is to draw more impressions to improve your sense of the picture
There is a scene of the real moon and Xiaozhi in the play. Gao Song said that this was the episode originally thought of, but I didn’t think about going into this picture in depth. I only thought of the hot spring of Huazhitang. It is good for the body, because when you climb the mountain for a long time, your feet will hurt. If there is a hot spring bubble at this time, then the pain can be improved immediately, so this scene is added. In addition, in the impression board, Gao Song also painted the blue dragon that appeared in the TV series, and the aggressive appearance of the British team also won high praise from the crew
Gao Wei said that although the role of Blue Dragon is closely related to the appearance of the singer in the original work, however, due to the length of time and the “character” of “Psychic Media” and the “Diviner” of Glory’s water collar, Therefore, it was eventually deleted in the film. Gao Wei also revealed that the original guests of the spring, summer, autumn and winter were also considered to have debuted. Finally, due to the length of time, the plot of the fall was deleted, and the play of this autumn guest was transferred to the original Mudu. The original autumn guest was an elderly man who was on a diet called Paddy Field. He and his granddaughter will appear in this chapter
Gao Wei said that in addition to the above contents, there are still some pictures of reluctance to cut love, and even the scenes of a certain grandmother’s perspective have already begun to draw original paintings, and finally they have no choice but to delete them. Feng Zi came out of the room and suddenly heard the voice of the daughter who should have died. Looking back, Feng Zi saw the daughter with her big belly and her body standing behind her. The peak rushed to the past. “Your body is not good. “Let’s lie down.” Fengzi helped her. “But there are guests…” The words were not finished. “Ah, it seems to have moved.” At this time, the child in the abdomen said, “I have to cheer. OK.” When the line rang, the peak immediately woke up and looked at the little weaving lying on the side. It is such a scene. From this scene, we can see that Xiaozhi lost the loneliness of his parents and the thoughts of his son on his daughter. In addition, this will become an opportunity for Xiaobian and Zhenyue to have a big fight. However, in this way, the perspective was transferred to the peak, and the small-woven scenes were weakened. In order to completely focus the audience’s attention on Xiaozhi, this paragraph was directly deleted by Gao Song without modification. However, Xiaozhi worried that the line of the peak was preserved, and Gaochun hoped that this sentence would remain in the hearts of the audience
For the movie “Young boss is a primary school student! “This film, Gao Song still hopes that every viewer can see happy, eliminate the negative part, and pay special attention to this aspect in the process of doing it. When the work is too tired, he also I will relax and let the unhappy things go behind me. Because only if you give priority to this, you can let the audience do it
