The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning, the script meeting went on as scheduled.

Rose Animation - now it should be called Huaying Animation, there are a total of forty-three people in various departments of the whole company. Now, there are exactly twenty people coming to participate in the script meeting, plus the three people of Muxuexing.

Mu Xingxing did not invite too many people in, and the conference room could not accommodate so many people. He invited senior employees in various positions.

""is" is the company's first animation project, with only one season and 26 episodes. Our goal is to complete the editing of this animation by the end of the year and schedule a new episode in January. You can check the information in your hand for details."

While Mu Xiuxing was speaking, Wen Feihang and Fang Lian were not idle. They were busy distributing the text scripts and storyboards that had been copied in advance to everyone present. Mu Xiu Xing had just finished speaking.

, the employee who got the script first immediately opened the script in his hand.

For a moment, there was only the faint sound of turning books in the spacious conference room.

As a storyboard artist, Xu An first opened the storyboard for "is".

Looking around the storyboard on the first page, Xu An said "Huh" in surprise, then raised his head and unexpectedly glanced at Mu Xingxing sitting on it.

At the beginning, Xu An thought that Mu Xingxing was just like Mu Xingxue, a pure lover of ACG culture and speculator.

You don't know anything about animation production.

But now...

Turning his eyes back to the skillful and exquisite storyboards in front of him, Xu An was thoughtful.

It seems that their new boss is not a layman like the previous boss.

As soon as this idea came to his mind, he felt a slight movement in his heart. He felt that something seemed to have been ignored by him, and he couldn't think of it for a while. At this moment, someone below suddenly asked casually as if unintentionally:

"Has the candidate for the chief director been confirmed?"

Yes, how could he forget this!

When it comes to the core figure of an animation, there is no doubt that it is the chief director. For any animation, the director is the soul of the production process, including the original painter, animator, character design, background design, etc., each one

The ideas and designs of the participants must be approved by the director before they can continue.

Employees in different positions are responsible for different aspects of production, while the director is the overall controller of the animation. Many animation directors who strive for excellence and are picky will even personally participate in every step of animation production. The importance of this position can be

Just imagine.

Mu Xingxing: "I am the chief director."

Xu An frowned, with suspicion in his eyes. Everyone looked at each other with the same question. It wasn't that they looked down on the new boss. The so-called animation director was not as simple as drawing storyboards and making decisions without professional knowledge.

Not to mention skills, the director's personal literary quality and the diversity of his knowledge are beyond the reach of an ordinary college student.

The Pleiades? Can he do it?

Everyone was shocked and confused, and one of the young people muttered: "Muxiu... Why do I always feel that this name sounds familiar? I seem to have heard it somewhere?"

"By the way, I remembered," the young man's eyes lit up and he raised his hand: "Director, I have a question."

Mu Xingxing nodded at him.

The young man who got the permission couldn't wait to ask: "I would like to ask, is "The Little Prince" that has become a hit on the Internet these two days, not your work? The dubbing in it was also contracted by you alone?"

"little Prince"?

Xu An felt moved.

Others may not pay attention, but as a practitioner in the animation industry, anyone who is motivated will not miss the excellent works in the industry. What's more, the place where "The Little Prince" is broadcast is the subway that almost everyone can't live without.

Xu An can't help but pay attention to "The Little Prince".

As an independent short animation, there is no doubt about the excellence of "The Little Prince". If its director is Mu Xing himself...

Facing everyone's curious or doubtful eyes, Mu Xiuxing said calmly: "It's me, and I'm also responsible for the dubbing work, but..." At this point, he smiled slightly and pointed at Wen Feihang beside him.

He and Fang Lian said: ""The Little Prince" is not my work alone, it was completed by the three of us."

The production of "is" is imminent, and if you want to get into work on the new project as soon as possible, the top priority is to dispel the employees' suspicions about the three of them. Although short animations are different from ordinary-length dramas, with "The Little Prince" Zhuyu in

Before that, employees' doubts about him could be somewhat alleviated.

Sure enough, when it was revealed that it was the production team of "The Little Prince", the expressions of the employees below became a little better.

Xu An also breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that "The Little Prince" can be produced, at least their new boss still has the basic abilities in all aspects. If it is not possible, when the time comes to make "is", they will be able to pay more attention in private and it will be almost the same.

After such an episode, after knowing that my new boss was not a one-minded newcomer, the following meeting progressed very quickly.

"The script meeting is over, Lao Xu, what are your plans?" someone asked after leaving the conference room.

"Although the new boss is young, he seems to be reliable. He is not the kind of college student who doesn't know the heights of the sky." Xu An mused: "The storyboard script is also quite good. If it was really him who drew it, don't say anything.

There are also middle and upper levels in the industry, but in other aspects, we can’t see it now.”

"What are you thinking?"

"Me?" Xu An thought about what he saw in the conference room. After thinking for a moment, he finally shook his head: "I'll forget it."

"What should I say?" Seeing Xu An's reaction, the person who first spoke suddenly became a little nervous: "Since you are determined to leave, there must be a reason."

"I want to leave, but not now." Xu An said, although Mu Xingxing didn't say anything and he would not leak the content of the script, but he even participated in their script meeting, how could he leave immediately?

The reason? Even if I have to leave, at least I should leave after finishing this animation.

Seeing the nervous look on his familiar colleague's face, Xu An knew that he had gone wrong and hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the new boss. I think he is also a potential and motivated person. If you want to eat this bowl

I won’t suffer any loss if I follow the new boss, but as for me..."

Having said this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said helplessly: "Xiao Zhang, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I've always had an idea in my mind over the past few years." He pointed to his head: "Go around here.

I have been arguing about it for seven or eight years, and I will never be willing to do it in my life until it is finished."

When he said this, the man couldn't help but become silent.

In the animation industry, some people do it for money and use their skills to make a living and make a living, while others do it for the vain dreams in their hearts. There are also cases where they sell everything and go bankrupt. As an animators, who didn't feel that way at the beginning?

Where is the dream?

But the reality is disappointing.

"You..." The man hesitated, not knowing what to say.

"I have saved some money in the past few years. When the plan is completed, I will go to various companies to see if I can get more investment. If not, I still have a house at home." Xu An said lightly: "

Just stay at Huaying with peace of mind. I think the new boss is generous, and today's animation script is also profitable. If you stay at Huaying and work hard, the boss will never let you suffer."

Feeling that this topic was too heavy, after saying this, Xu An changed the topic and said: "Let's not talk about this anymore, we still have work to do in the afternoon, and we will probably be busy in the next four months.

Let’s go.”

With the cooperation of more than 30 senior employees, the production of "is" is progressing very smoothly.

At first, some employees thought that the young director was young and did not say anything on the surface, but in his behavior, it was inevitable that he would be subconsciously scornful. But soon, this mentality was completely dispelled by reality——

"The movement trajectory here is wrong. I don't know the movement trajectory of the mecha. I should be able to draw the movement trajectory of the robot, right?" Mu Xingxing frowned and said unceremoniously: "Redraw, I have to do it before three o'clock this afternoon.

See the finished product.”

The reprimanded employee's face suddenly became a little confused and a little surprised. Animation naturally makes the picture move. Whether it is people or other things, they will show different movement trajectories in different motion states.

Take a bird in flight as an example. If the movement trajectory is not drawn correctly, then in the animation, the dynamic scene of the bird flying will appear weird and uncoordinated. On the contrary, the closer the movement trajectory is drawn to reality, the more realistic the picture will be.

The effect will also be more refined and smooth.

He admitted that it was precisely because he underestimated Director Mu that he made the mistake carelessly. But to his surprise, Mu Xingxing immediately saw the error in the movement trajectory with just a casual glance.

, without strong basic skills and long-term personal accumulation, it is impossible to do it.

Is this person really that powerful? Or is he really mistaken?

To his surprise, Mu Xingxing had already passed him and moved towards the next person.

"The costume style is too vulgar. The background of the animation is the future interstellar era. The character costume design should be both contemporary and modern. It cannot completely deviate from the times, but it cannot sacrifice beauty just to fit the background. This animation is purely commercial.

Animation and costume design that pays too much attention to textual research have no meaning. With such a fat and heavy costume design, neither legs nor breasts can be seen. What do you want the audience to lick? Mecha? "

The employee in charge of character design was stunned speechless by his straightforward but clear explanation, and had no choice but to say: "Yes, director, I will change it right away."

Mu Xingxing said "hmm" without saying he was satisfied or dissatisfied. He walked along the aisle and stopped in front of another desk.

With the examples of the first two people, when it comes to the third person, the employees can't help but become a little nervous.

"The mechanical chain and high-speed gears are all beautifully drawn, and the bearing sleeves and transmission rods are also designed just right. The overall mechanical structure is quite accurate, which is good." His eyes fell on a stack of parts diagrams on his desk, and the Pleiades were satisfied.

He nodded: "What's your name? Have you studied mechanical design before?"

Probably not expecting to be praised, the young man immediately smiled and rolled his eyes, and said excitedly: "My name is Jian Zhiming. When the company used to outsource mecha animation, I studied mechanical design by myself for a period of time in order to do a good job in modeling design.

Director, if you have any other requirements, remember to tell me and I will make changes until you are satisfied!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Jian Zhiming was stunned.

Wait, this is going the wrong way! Wasn't he just trying to let this too young director know that the sky is high and the sky is high? Why did he accidentally start dancing because of a casual compliment from the other party?

Mu Xingxing did not notice anything unusual about the employees.

He walked back and forth in the studio. If he didn't know that many employees still had doubts about their abilities and were careless and neglectful, which led to their failure to perform at their normal level at work, otherwise, Mu Xing would

I will only be more disappointed with the abilities of these employees.
