Chapter 107 - Pressure from "The Hunting Abyss"

The name of "Y's" is the same as before, and the quality is still very high, but in terms of the plot, it really makes Yan Fei a little helpless.

There was another misunderstanding between the two people, and, seeing the new name of "Y's", Iori didn't seem to know that the magazine wanted her to take a full fruit photo.

"These two people are really not worrying. Teacher Shen, you should be careful, and the story must not fall apart."

It is impossible for Shen Xin to modify the plot. Yan Fei can only hope that he will not follow Chen Zijiao and let himself go.

"I know it in my heart. By the way, Sister Yan, you must tell me the news about radio dramas in the magazine as soon as possible." Shen Xin reminded.

"I know." Yan Fei stuffed a copy of name into her bag and said goodbye to Shen Xin.

After cleaning, Gao Hang took the "Y's" separate book and continued to practice the background, while Lu Ning took the name before "Y's" and observed the correlation between the divisions.

Xi Muhan quickly tapped his fingers on the keyboard, ready to write the branch plot of the game in one go.

Shen Xin copied the name onto the manuscript, framed with a duckbill pen, protected from light, and laid it flat on the floor. By five o'clock in the afternoon, he had completed five or six pages of line drafts.

The sky was getting dark, Gao Hang stood up to turn on the lights, Shen Xin sat up straight, and said to Gao Hang, "Shall we eat first? Come back and start drawing the manuscript."

"Okay, I've been waiting for the manuscript a long time ago." Gao Hang raised his hands.

Lu Ning put away the name before "Y's", "Mr. Shen, I have some questions on the storyboard, I want to ask you."

"Well, let's talk about it when we eat. What shall we eat?" Shen Xin asked.

"How about incense pot?" Xi Muhan asked.

"This is the best. I know there is a incense pot shop nearby. It is delicious." Gao Hang swallowed, his cheeks filled with happiness.

"Pay attention to your body shape. Your current model is only two Xs. If it becomes XXXL, it may be difficult to find a girlfriend." Shen Xin reminded.

"Huh? No?" Gao Hang was startled, and quickly squeezed the fat on his stomach, as if he was a little fat, and quickly covered his stomach.

Perhaps because of thinking about weight, Gao Hang was depressed all the way, but when he entered the incense pot shop and looked at the tender beef, he immediately put aside the question of whether to lose weight, picked the ingredients as quickly as possible, and sent them to the kitchen window. Then took off the cotton-padded clothes and sat on the seat beautifully.

After selecting the ingredients, Shen Xin also sat down, but noticed that Lu Ning, who was sitting opposite him, was staring at him.

"Well, on the storyboard...what's the problem?" Shen Xin thought of Lu Ning's question before leaving.

"Well, how do you choose between the big grid and the small grid?"

"This. In fact, the use of large and small grids is, in the final analysis, a change in rhythm." Shen Xin explained.

"Rhythm?" Lu Ning blinked. She had been thinking about the comics by herself before, and she didn't know the details.

"Yes. The division of the comics comes from the division of the movie. When will the movie feature close-ups of the characters? Mostly when the emotions erupt. The same is true for the divisions. The picture of the big grid is usually the one where the emotions erupt, and The small grid in front has part of its role, which is to accumulate emotions, and these backlogs of emotions will not let readers feel the emotions of the characters until the big grid bursts out. In fact, the difficulty of name lies in the sub-mirror on the one hand, and the other In terms of the layout of the whole story.

"In the case of serialized comics, the page number of each episode is fixed. The first episode is between 50 and 55 pages. From the second episode, each episode is about 20 pages. Different magazines and societies have corresponding The detailed rules are similar, but they are roughly the same. Therefore, when designing the name, you must take into account the foreshadowing and climax. The cartoonist must find the appropriate flash point within 20 pages. In addition, the single page and Two-page considerations will also be different."

"Is name still considering single and double pages?" Xi Muhan asked in surprise.

"Of course." Gao Hang looked at the kitchen and swallowed, "Don't forget, there is a format for comics called spreads. The first page of the spread is a double page, and the second is a single page. Open the book, The left and right layouts show a picture together. If the first page is a single page, it is equivalent to seeing half of it, and then turning to look at the other half. No one is so stupid."

Gao Hang has been an assistant for two years. It may not work for him to design a name, but some small knowledge points can still be told.

"Unexpectedly, besides eating, you also understand this." Lu Ning said.

"That's not it. I have not only fat in my stomach, but also knowledge." Gao Hang looked smug.

"However, in a few years... 10 years at most? Maybe the filmmaker won't consider these." Shen Xin speculated.

Gao Hang was taken aback, "Teacher, why?"

This time, he didn't know the reason.

"Technology is developing." Shen Xin said casually, but did not explain why.

In fact, when the electronic version of comics becomes mainstream, there is no problem of page turning. This will simplify a lot of processes and the skills of single and double pages will not be used. But cartoonists who aim to publish single-volume books still have to consider these factors.

These few years are likely to be the last glory of paper magazines. When the electronic version of comics appears, many things will change, and the storyboard is one of them.

Of course, if you want manga apps to become mainstream, you must first popularize smartphones and tablets. It is estimated that this world will take some time.

After dinner, the group returned to the studio. Shen Xin handed the ink-lined manuscript to Gao Hang. Gao Hang took up the hair dryer and dried the ink-lined manuscript.

Shen Xin also knows that starting from this issue, he must do his best, otherwise, even with the blessing of "I"s, he will not necessarily win this year's newcomer award.

However, the reality is more severe than he thought.

The next day, "ComicFuture" released the sales volume of "Hunting Abyss" on Weibo. The first day was 50,000 copies. Compared with "Criminal Punishment", it was not at a disadvantage.

Of course, part of the reason is that it was just after the Spring Festival, and the students had the lucky money in their hands, but even so, the sales volume of 50,000 on the first day is still an exaggerated result.

In the next few days, the trend of "Hunting Abyss" is still good, 100,000 on the third day, and surpassed 250,000 in the first week.

Manjia.com forum "ComicFuture" section ~www.mtlnovel.com~Most of the space is devoted to the one-line version of "Hunting Abyss".

"The'Wang Dao' comics are different." Shen Xin took the booklet of "The Hunting Abyss" and read "The Hunting Abyss" again.

Ye Hexu's painter is not the best, but it matches well with "The Hunting Abyss". Moreover, the storyboard of this manga is very smooth, allowing people to read it naturally.

However, "The Hunting Abyss" is not perfect either. Although his shots are very smooth, his character movements during the fight are a bit stiff. In addition, the split-shots during the fight are also very cute. In many cases, the protagonist swings the sword in the previous square, and the monster in the next square is beheaded.

The advantage of    is that it can improve the protagonist's compelling pattern, but the disadvantages are also obvious. Some fighting processes require readers' brains.

No matter what, "Hunting Abyss" became one of the hottest comics in February.

The reason for saying "One" is because "MangaFly" also released the signature "Dream Eater" single-page book, which is a city plus fantasy. It tells that the protagonist can freely enter other people's dreams and discover each other's dreams. idea. The sales volume of this single book in the first week of sale was 680,000 copies.

"Mr. Shen, are you under pressure?" Gao Hang put the drawn manuscript in the corner and turned to ask Shen Xin.

"Of course it's big. 250,000 copies in the first week... I don't know when "Y's" will reach this sales volume." Shen Xin closed the booklet of "Hunting Abyss", feeling a little frustrated.

"I said, Mr. Shen, instead of worrying about others, it is better to worry about us. "Y's" was scolded by netizens again." Lu Ning glanced at the web page and the Yunhai Comic Forum while copying the manuscript, and she was already caught up in heated discussions.
