I Am a Light Novel Master in Japan Chapter 445
Liangfeng Qingye thought quietly.
She suddenly felt very nervous and even trembled slightly. She was able to treat her calmly and sleep peacefully yesterday, but now, for the first time, she saw so many people who were good at painting waiting in the same place with her. Suddenly uneasy.
Close your eyes tightly and try to calm down.
She didn't even have time to take a good look at this strange place, but she was already assigned to the battlefield. After all, she didn't have any chance to admire the holy land of her dreams.
"Then, please invite the people who are applying for the art team to come over. Akemi Haruta, Nozomi Sato, and Aoba Suangfeng, please come in together."
At this time, a staff member came out of the interview room, holding the list and reading the names.
"yes!"
Liangfeng Aoye, who had been distracted by the waiting, immediately came back to her senses and stood up. She showed a nervous expression and followed the others in.
However, in a daze, when she raised her head, she suddenly saw a familiar figure suddenly blocking the sunlight.
"..." Liangfeng Qingye was slightly startled. It was just an illusion. However, she had just seen the back of Li Yan stepping into the conference room. The figure walking by the river was deeply engraved in her mind. The figure of Yong Wu moving forward without fear immediately made her eyes become fascinated...
However, after all, this was just a kind of self-suggestion and comfort that suddenly came from her subconscious when she was nervous. There was no figure in front of her. At least, this figure would not really appear at this moment...
However, it seemed as if something was accompanying her, which rekindled the courage in her heart.
Be fearless and move forward.
She calmed down, and finally, facing the quiet breeze in the corridor, she strode forward with one heart and one mind.
Chapter 243 Charming Game Illustrator Lady
Late at night, under the dark brown night sky, an exquisite and brightly lit urban landscape heralds the endless prosperity of the economy and human civilization.
A bicycle parked at the door of the company. After putting it into the bicycle parking lot in the alley, Li Yan walked into the door of the company at 5:50 with the takeout box in hand.
The whole day is somewhat crowded. He will attend classes at the university from 4:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., plus one and a half hours of review time, and the remaining four hours of contract work time. Therefore, Li Yan usually They all come with takeaway lunch boxes and eat while working.
In other words, this is simply like being treated like a social animal...
"..."
Li Yan was sitting in the office, working on the computer, when he began to feel this uncomfortable experience.
"Miss Ye Yue, you have worked hard too." Li Yan said politely.
"Yes, these are the art recruitment works that were conducted this morning and afternoon. In the afternoon, Miss Yagami and Miss Toyama and I have conducted a series of screenings. These are the remaining outstanding works that can be considered, because they are related to the next The quality of a new work is a problem, so I will review these excellent works for you and recommend the designer you think is most suitable for the "Witch" series."
Ha Yuezhi placed the stack of documents on Li Yan's desk and explained.
"Okay." Li Yan took the stack of documents and began to read.
The playability elements of the game have always been a top priority for reference. According to a professional analysis, there are 14 main categories of elements that determine the interest of a work.
Plot elements, role-playing elements, action elements, competition elements, exploration elements, etc. Among them, plot elements, role-playing elements and other major elements are directly linked to the production level of artists, so planning must also strictly control the art aspects. Make program.
It should be said that Li Yan became the final interviewer of today's sixteen art applicants, and he decided to finally join Eagle Jump's trainee artist list.
"The interview question was designed by Miss Yagami and I together. Based on the description of the script you wrote, try to design a cute Japanese-style NPC character within the specified time. This is a very flexible and interesting interview question."
Hazuki Shizuku said with a smile.
Li Yan's eyes were completely focused on the drawings of characters, and he said: "It does sound very fresh. The applicants who participated today are all very good."
"Well, having said that, as far as I know, there are many outstanding illustrators in the light novel company, right?" Hazuki Shizuku pinched her chin and asked.
"Yes, there are many excellent illustrators at Sanwa Bunko, and I have met a few of them, such as my partner Mr. Kashiwagi, Mr. Mio Aoyama, Mr. Eromanga, and..."
Li Yan happily introduced the illustrator he knew. However, the beautiful figure standing in the rainy night, wearing a kimono and black hair, appeared in his mind. However, that mysterious illustrator was not Sanwa Bunko. a member of.
"Sorry, I misremembered the last one. She is not a novelist, but her painting skills are quite good. She has been selling her designs to major companies around the world."
Li Yan paused and continued the introduction.
"Oh? Is he such a powerful illustrator? I always feel particularly interested in him. Please be sure to introduce him to me next time you see him."
Hazuki Shizuku listened carefully and then said with interest.
The work has been carried out in an orderly manner. The art team, IT team and other departments have given feedback on the game script. The planning work is tedious and boring. Basically, it means constantly revising, giving feedback, and revising all aspects of the game. It is easy to offend everyone. Department, doing work that knows everything and manages everything.
The director had already returned to her office, while Li Yan continued to look through various character works in detail.
The painting does not contain any information about the interviewer. It is mainly for confidentiality purposes. It uses Roman letters and order to compile a series of codes for registration. The titles of the designed characters are all important NPC, the mechanic [Bunana].
Because he is a cute character with superb mechanical knowledge and is also fascinated by mechanical gears, there are many features and cuteness points that need to be considered when designing. The design difficulty is not the highest in the game, but it is not easy to design a sophisticated work with feeling. .
Drawings after drawings, cute characters with different types and thoughts are presented in front of Li Yan. The level is indeed quite high, but some styles still lack characteristics, and some styles are too aesthetically pleasing anime settings, which conflict with the game style. .
In addition, some people like to use thick glasses frames, technician's overalls, or wear gears or machinery on their bodies to support the characteristics of technicians, but often such personas are often a bit uncoordinated. , or maybe it’s too déjà vu and not impressive enough…
The design of the game is definitely different from the light novel.
Games adapted from previous Japanese comics or novels often have a common problem, that is, it is difficult to integrate the characteristics of the game itself with popular works. Even if the character creation is quite successful, the power system and moves are very interesting, but when used in the game Inside, it seems nondescript. There are still few adapted games that are really loved by everyone. The basic selling point is emotion.
Therefore, in order to avoid this risk, Li Yan was reviewing all the work at hand with the mood of a game planner.
"Oops, if you keep working like this, you will lose your hair sooner or later in a few months..." Li Yan carefully observed the paintings and thought in trouble.
Li Yan's attitude towards the review of his works was extremely strict, so strict that it made his partner Eiri Kashiwagi cry several times. After he pointed out the shortcomings of the "Valkyrie Armor" conceived by his junior Izumi Masamune one by one, he made this A junior has been afraid to engage in fantasy battle stories for a year.
Soon, 80% of the works were put aside, and attention was paid to the remaining 20% of the character works.
Among the remaining works, there is probably one that is closest to the game style required by Li Yan. However, to be on the safe side, he still borrowed the commonly used appraisal method to determine the degree of conformity of the works. .
"Editing system, turn on."
Li Yan looked at the last few drawings intently and said.
The long-lost editing system was still in the process of upgrading and was once again activated by Li Yan. Suddenly, all the contents of the draft were integrated with the power of consciousness, and the fairest market value was finally determined.
【B-】;【B+】;【B】;【A-】……
The editing system requires a certain amount of energy to review a work. Therefore, using the editing system to review too many works at once will directly cause Li Yan to become disoriented or even fall to the ground. Therefore, Li Yan has always used the editing system with caution.
"That's great. He's still A-. He should be a trustworthy helper."
Looking back, the last draft is indeed in line with market expectations. This draft is the most recognized design style and character image by the market.
"Then I recommend this character designer." Li Yan thought to himself as he looked at the drawing numbered [Artist.OB.13]. (Novel prompt: Aoba Roman Sound Ou Ba)
