Chapter 452 Overseas Distribution

"The most troublesome thing about 3D animation is to draw the model out, and the action must be natural and realistic. The most troublesome thing about 2D animation is to draw it one by one, and it must also be natural and realistic. Regular films and TV shows that there are 24 frames of pictures in a second, which means that animations need to draw 24 pictures in a second. For example, in order to save costs, Japan uses 3 and 3 same paintings, that is, 8 pictures in a second, so ten seconds are 80 pictures, 480 pictures in a minute, and 4800 pictures in a ten-minute. If it is just a few people, the workload can be imagined. Therefore, it is normal to make a 2D animation, more than 10 people, and more than 100 people in a theatrical version..."

"Our department has a very heavy task next, mainly because it lacks manpower. If you have experience in animation production, you are welcome to submit your resume to apply for a job..."

"I admire Mr. Jiang very much. Not only is he familiar with the entire process of animation production, he also knows all the links well. He tells you a secret, "Those things about that year", "Kung Fu Panda", and "The Origin of White Snake" and the character image, scene original painting, and painting style of the three works are provided by Mr. Jiang..."

...

Li Zheng, manager of Huafeng Media’s animation department, accepted an interview with Douyin Entertainment Channel. During the conversation, he talked about the difficulties of the anime line and expressed his admiration for Django.

This interview was arranged by Mo Lan. One is to stabilize the hearts of the animation department employees, the other is to dispel other companies' idea of ​​poaching, and the third is to use the popularity of "Kung Fu Panda" to promote "The Origin of the White Snake".

Let’s not talk about the effect for now, at least it creates a very high popularity and topic.

"My colleagues said that it was really hard, painting day and night."

"We have only six people in the studio, and one animation took four years to complete three episodes."

"It's really time-consuming to do animations. Hand-drawn ones require slow work to do fine work. In addition to the funds, they burn every day, there are hair and liver!"

"Is it very difficult to enter a large company like Huafeng?"

"I have been in the industry for eight years. Can I apply for a job?"

"I entered the year at the beginning of the year. Currently, in the third group of Huafeng Animation, it is really not difficult to enter. You only need to pass the professional skills and be able to endure hardships."

...

Unexpectedly, other companies did not dig into Huafeng Media's corners, but Mo Lan's operation attracted a lot of technical talents.

This is really "if you are willing to plant flowers, you will not grow, but if you are unwilling to plant willows and willows, you will become shade."

"Click!"

On the set, Django was as strict as ever, and could not tolerate any minor flaws, and said to the extra who played the bus driver: "Can you speak local dialect?"

After the extras knew that they were calling for a stop, they immediately became nervous. They swallowed unconsciously and stuttered, "Will...Will."

Django continued, "It's good that you can, all your lines are spoken in dialect."

When the extra heard that he had made a big mistake, he breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly and said, "Okay."

Django raised the amplification and said, "Go to prepare for each group!"

After a brief adjustment, the shooting started again.

【Driver: "Jiangkou, from Jiangkou."

Extra A chases Xu Lai (played by Li Chenggong): "Boss, do you want to stay in a hotel?"

Driver: "You are going to Jiangkou and get on the bus!"

The extra actor A continued to follow Xu Lai: "The boss is staying in the hotel and we have twenty-four hours of hot water here, which is very convenient, and there is internet and bathroom."

Xu Lai waved his hand and said, "Can't stop."

Driver: "Shangman and leave!"

The extra actor A followed Xu Lai closely: "Can you still surf the Internet, the boss... stay in a hotel?"

Xu Lai chose to ignore it, walked to the driver and asked, "Master, is this car coming to Xingcheng?"

While smoking a cigarette, the driver replied casually: "Only go to Jiangkou, take a long-distance bus from Xingcheng to Jiangkou."

Xu Lai asked again: "Then are there any other cars here to get to Xingcheng?"

The driver said impatiently: "Just this car, you have to sit in it, forget it if you don't!"

The extra actor A still asked: "Boss, stay in our store. It's very convenient. It has 24-hour hot water and can be accessed online."

Xu Lai finally broke out and said, "I can't hold on, I can't hold on! I'm so annoyed!"

While talking, he got on the car.]

"Crack, it's very good, I'll protect one more!"

Django gave the actors in the venue a thumbs up. Needless to say, Xu Lai's acting skills have always been online, and both extras have been in place.

This kind of low-cost film has neither beauties nor special effects. If you want to be exciting, it depends entirely on the actors.

After filming a few scenes, when he saw Mo Lan coming, he handed the scene to Xu Dongqing.

"The Chinese Ghost Story 2: The Way of the World" has been completed." Mo Lan organized a final banquet in Hengdian yesterday.

"Uncle Zhou is so fast." Django calculated and had only been filming for more than two months.

"The experience accumulated in the first part, and the original crew has a tacit understanding." Mo Lan followed the group for more than a week. Many times, Zhou Mulong didn't have to talk about the opera, and Zhang Fucheng, Qin Shiyue and the others knew how to act.

"In post-production, it seems that it will be released on National Day just now," said Django.

"Well, I'll arrange the publicity." Mo Lan has become accustomed to this speed.

"By the way, is Sony Pictures willing to accept those animated movies?" Django mentioned the overseas distribution.

"Not only Sony Pictures, but also companies of certain scale such as Warner Bros., Huashi Film, and Huace Film and Television have expressed their intentions." Mo Lan replied.

The money-making ability shown in "Kung Fu Panda" made major film and television companies jealous. After announcing the future animation film production plan, they immediately put out an olive branch.

"Huace Film and Television is our domestic company, right?" Django seemed to have heard of it.

"Well, maybe because we have always been publishing ourselves in China, you don't know these companies." Mo Lan said.

"Compared with those M companies, how is their overseas issuance capabilities?" Django asked.

"It's a little worse, but in 2015, the international business has ushered in a breakthrough. "Short Songs" set a record for overseas sales of domestic dramas, with a single episode exceeding US$300,000. Generally, domestic costume dramas are sold overseas by about US$100,000. At the same time, the influence of overseas content is also deepening. The script IPs of many dramas such as "Happiness Next Stop", "Dear", "Snail House" have also successfully exported adaptations to overseas..." Mo Lan did her homework and said slowly: "Their company's distribution channels are increasing, covering hundreds of countries. According to data, since 2020, the number of films and TV series released overseas accounts for the first place in the country every year."

"That's not bad." Django thought for a while and said, "In this way, give them the "Return of the Great Sage" and let's talk about the remaining four later."

Currently, Huafeng Media only publishes its own works, and there is no need to take over overseas distribution matters. It is better to hand it over to a company that has already made a scale.
