Chapter 423: Jiang Lang's talents are exhausted
A few days after the audience satisfaction of "Flame Boy" was released, on the 25th, "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" was officially broadcast...
There was no big publicity, no trailer, but there were still many fans waiting by the TV to watch this day, and the media also paid great attention.
The newspaper editor-in-chief Wang Lei attaches great importance to this premiere. He has developed further through "Detective Conan" not long ago. Of course, he hopes that He Xi's "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" can defeat the adapted animation of "Flame Boy", otherwise wouldn't this team be in vain?
After getting off work early, Wang Lei sat on the sofa and watched. His daughter Wang Rui also left school and put down her homework to watch with him.
At 6:00 pm, the animation of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" was broadcast on time, but at the beginning, Wang Lei was stunned.
"What kind of style is this!"
The daughter Wang Rui screamed: "This is Teacher He Xi's work? It's so ugly!"
Wang Lei frowned. The beginning of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is the beginning of the battle scene like "Flame Boy", but compared to the latter, the battle background of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is too abstract! The characters inside are well drawn, but the surrounding environment and background are simply messy. Various things are confused. It cannot be said that they are ugly, but they are indeed very abstract.
"What's this called?...the style of the stream of consciousness?"
Wang Lei thought, feeling a little disappointed. How could he be using abstract painting skills in animation?
This is not a good idea. Abstraction should also be abstracted for experts. Ordinary audiences do not have such a high aesthetic taste. At least Wang Lei did not feel how beautiful this picture is. Fortunately, after the short battle animation, the next normal opening song made Wang Lei breathe a sigh of relief.
The style of the opening song is normal. From the picture, the environment of this animation is fine and beautiful. The abstract style just now should only appear in combat.
“This song is so good!”
The daughter said in surprise, Wang Lei smiled. When he saw that the name of the song was "Bond", it sounded very comfortable, much better than the opening song of "Flame Boy"!
He Xi is a natural composer. His songs seem to be specially made for animations, and they have a sense of fit that others cannot imitate. Moreover, after listening to them, the songs in other animations are not outstanding. Wang Lei even found that many animations have recently tried to imitate He Xi's song style.
Wang Lei thinks "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is slightly better than "Flame Boy", which has many professionals, but the preparation time is too short, and the songs in it are not amazing.
After the opening song, Wang Lei was satisfied with the subsequent animation.
This is a simple beginning. The heroine gets up and has dinner with her family and goes to school. This beginning proves Wang Lei’s conjecture when watching the opening song - the background in the animation is not an abstract nature. On the contrary, it should be said that it is very consistent with the background of the times. It will make people feel bright.
All the urban constructions in the animation are quite avant-garde and have a special beauty. The story time should be set at a certain time in the future, and it has a modern style and will not be too sci-fi.
“This is good…”
Wang Lei likes this avant-garde style very much, it is also suitable for teenagers to accept, so there should be no need to worry about the style.
The performance of animation voice actors is also very good. The voice actors of "Flame Boy" are all from big-name artists. These artists are very strong, but the reputation brings more thrilling than strength. Although the voice actors of Phoenix Company are not well-known, after years of training and training, their dubbing level is not only not inferior to those of big-name artists, but even exceeding the limit.
Finally, deducting the impact of "Flame Boy" promotion, in terms of animation quality alone, "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is not inferior to it in terms of music and voice actors. The picture is somewhat biased, and the picture quality of "Flame Boy" is said to be comparable to that of high-definition movies, but "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" also does a very good job of details.
Although the latter is not as good as the former, the audience is not watching movies in the cinema, so how can they need such high-definition picture quality? If you have a TV with hundreds of inches of screens in the cinema or every household, "Flame Boy" will certainly win. But considering the current actual situation, the picture clarity of most home TV screens is not much different from that of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" and "Flame Boy", and the difference will only be highlighted in the special effects of the battle scenes.
Therefore, the animation picture will not be the key to the outcome of these two works. In fact, the picture of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" has improved a lot compared to He Xi's previous animation. Especially for the characters in it, the character image has not changed particularly prominently, but the vividness has been greatly improved.
Animation is something that a large number of painters have drawn together. In order to prevent the characters from moving, painters tend to tend to conservatively draw the characters. The expressions and expressions on the characters' faces and the viewers' perspectives to look at the characters will be limited. However, "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is different. The characters in it are very vivid and the perspectives are very free. Every move gives Wang Lei a vivid feeling.
He doesn't know much professional knowledge, but he can clearly feel that the characters in this animation seem more "real" and "active"... These characters greatly make up for the gap between the background and the picture. Wang Lei believes that even if the audience who pursues the picture and likes "Flame Boy" will not think that "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is very bad.
"...It seems that there are several powerful painters coming to Phoenix Company..."
Qin Ya's story has not been announced to the outside world, but Wang Lei noticed that there were powerful artists helping to create animations. This was a news worth exploring, and he secretly recorded it.
The animation will be finished soon. The gap between "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" and "Flame Boy" is quite small. It can be seen that Phoenix Company has also spent a lot of effort on this animation.
In this way, the outcome of the two animations is placed on the "script", which has always been He Xi's strengths. The smile and tears in the first episode of "Pokemon", and the shock and stunning of the first episode of "Gundam Ed", which made Wang Lei not worried at first the script.
He believes that the first episode of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is as stunning as the first two original animations.
However, after reading it, he was disappointed!
"Not good-looking..." After watching "The Magic Girl Xiaoyuan", his daughter Wang Rui was the first to sigh disappointed: "The story is too ordinary, not like the work of Teacher He Xi!"
Wang Lei nodded. The plot of "Magic Girl Xiaoyuan" is far less interesting than "Flame Boy".
Chapter completed!
