Storyboarding is a compulsory course for every director, but each director's storyboarding also has its own characteristics depending on the artist's skills.
There are professional sketches that are vivid, there are also minimalist stick figures, and there are even ones like Teacher One, which look like a draft, but the storyboards appear on the paper as if they have been taken.
The storyboards of Hayato Minakami are quite satisfactory. Although he has never studied painting professionally, he has learned a little bit in the elective course at Tokyo University of the Arts, which is enough for him to draw what he wants.
However, the painting style and artistry are one thing, and qualified storyboards are another.
Qualified storyboards include not only the key shots, but also the composition of the entire scene, the action performance of each character, and notes on camera movement, angles, shooting time and other things.
When he was the assistant director of "High School", Hayato Minakami mostly worked as an assistant. When he had the chance to do storyboards, it was only for one or two action scenes, but he still had experience.
But when he showed the finished storyboard to Director Hirakawa, he shook his head and smiled: "Mizumi-kun, this is not a formal storyboard yet."
"Look here, you marked the angle of the camera, but you didn't indicate which camera was used to shoot which angle." Director Hirakawa explained one by one to Mizuna Hayato: "And here, the shooting time must be specific to the frame. This will make it easier to edit later..."
When learning something, there are many details that you may not be able to discover even if you watch from the sidelines many times. Only when you have done it yourself and have someone teach you by words and deeds can you master such things more quickly. Otherwise, you will have to fall a few steps. You can learn it only by getting several lessons from somersaulting.
Minakami Hayato was very grateful to Director Hirakawa for his teachings, and he studied hard and perfected his scene, which lasted only one or two minutes.
...
Although Mizuna Hayato is fully confident in his action design skills, he believes that there are specialties in the art industry, and the action actors in the crew are still more familiar with the use of samurai swords.
When he first came here, he asked them for some advice, but when it came to the official shooting, he still communicated with them about the drawn storyboards.
"Well, the Iai-based action design you mentioned is reasonable." The action actor who once taught Ayase Haruka how to fall said: "The action of running over with the scabbard is also better than the previous design. Much more handsome."
I don’t know if he was worried or not, but all he said were good things.
Mizuna Hayato didn't worry too much. As long as his movements didn't make too many mistakes, a little exaggeration was okay. Because the biggest purpose of shooting action design is not to ensure that it can be performed reasonably, but to be photogenic.
"Well... the killer ran towards Nanfang Ren who was stunned, and drew his knife in front of him. The cold sword light flashed, and the energy of death attacked Nanfang Ren.
"Then at the critical moment, the beauty rescued the hero and pulled him away. What was left in the air were a few strands of Nanfang Ren's hair and the bamboo leaves flying in the bamboo forest."
"Tachibana Saki is worthy of being a young lady from the samurai family. Although she has not learned any martial arts and has no strength in her hands, her natural strength and the samurai soul flowing in her blood make her extremely clear-headed at critical moments."
"She took out the flour she had picked up before leaving and threw it forward. The killer fell into chaos, and then the two of them ran away hand in hand..."
Mizukami Hayato was explaining his next design vividly, even using some of the tones and intonations of storytelling that he had heard before, which was really vivid.
Seeing the beaming Hayato Minato, Kyoko Fukada shook her head in amusement, while Haruka Ayase looked interested: "Then what?"
"Then..."
...
Then there is the "first intimate contact" between Nanfang Jin and Tachibana Saki in this drama.
The two of them fled to a small shrine in the mountains. This small shrine did not have a majestic torii and a magnificent temple like other shrines. The torii it had was only about two meters high, and the middle one was covered with There are some stone carvings and stone lanterns on both sides of the stone road covered with fallen leaves and dust, and the so-called shrine is just a small house of two or three square meters.
Yingzhou believes that all things are animistic. It is said that there are eight million gods, among which gods can be transformed into anything. God knows what kind of gods this small shrine enshrines.
But although the shrine's building is simple, the bushes and other places next to it are quite popular.
People coming and going every day are men and women in love, either coming here to find excitement, or coming here to have an affair.
Nanfang Jin and Tachibana Saki ran here and found a bush. Nanfang Ren, who was still in a panic, was thrown into the bush by Tachibana Saki and held down tightly.
Tachibana Saki, the "little assistant" who was usually ignorant and obedient in front of Nanfang Ren, now showed another side of her, protecting Nanfang Ren.
The two people were clearly close to each other, but there was nothing so-called charming or ambiguous in the scene at this time.
At this time, the killer finally came here. He felt the breath in the bushes and shouted: "Go to hell!"
But I was frightened by the man and woman who were making love to each other there.
His shout also startled the nearby warriors, attracting the attention of many people, and completely missed the opportunity to kill Nanfang Ren.
If there were to be a narration for this killer here, maybe he would say: "When I first came here, it was an abandoned shrine in a remote place with no one, but why did a group of people come here at once like making a nest?"
...
This scene is the first time the male and female protagonists live and die together. According to the general development of the plot, after this incident, the relationship between the male and female protagonists will definitely heat up and start to get closer and closer.
However, it doesn't matter whether the relationship between the male and female protagonists heats up in the subsequent plot. Minakami Hayato feels that his whole person has completely warmed up now.
In the scene just now, Ayase Haruka threw him to the ground. In order to show Tachibana Saki's firm determination to protect the doctor, she chose to hold Minakami Hayato's head tightly in her arms.
You know, Ayase Haruka has a well-known title, which is tied with Fukada Kyoko's "Fat Kyou".
Mizugo Hayato had already experienced firsthand how wonderful "Higyou" was, and today, he finally felt another kind of beauty.
He didn't dare to say anything specific.
All in all, it's great. Ayase Haruka's sudden tenderness makes his panic expression in the play no longer even staged.
Otherwise, so many men like older girls. Everyone likes such a warm and gentle feeling.
Yes, he was talking about age.
