4-minute mg animation production cycle: Generally, the mg animation production cycle is divided into four steps, and the schedule of different enterprises is similar. According to the production experience of Yellow Crane Tower Animation Company, the steps are as follows:
1. It takes about one to three days to collect ideas, which is an essential step.
2. It takes one to three days to communicate with customers, and the specific implementation stage also needs division of labor.
3. Post-production takes the longest time, at least 15 days. After these are completed, we should reconfirm that it can be completed within one week. The following are the production steps of the whole MG animation, and each step is essential.
First, create an animated copy.
There are two forms of animation reproduction, one is voiceover reproduction. Its screen production is generally carried out in cooperation with copywriting. The other is to match related words according to the picture content to help the interpretation of the picture content. Whether it is the copy that guides the production of pictures or the copy that assists the expression of pictures, it will have a great influence on the final product effect. For example, the Yellow Crane Tower animation and promotional film production company attaches great importance to the copywriting team.
Second, the design of story board
Story board is a way to express the creator's ideas in graphic language and visualize his shots. As a preset blueprint in animation production, the design of characters and scenes, frame-by-frame production, and later editing and dubbing are all based on the script.
Third, the formal animation production.
In the formal creation process of Mg animation, the animation production team needs to draw characters, graphics and scenes first. This work is mainly realized by Illustrator and Photoshop tools. The creation of sound includes dubbing, music and sound effects in addition to the picture material. Animation is made on the basis of split-shot scripts, pictures and sound materials, combined with AffterEffects software and Premiere editing software.
Fourth, animation post-editing
Post-editing is mainly to grasp the rhythm of the picture, and whether the sound is synchronized is the focus of investigation.
The above is the whole process of MG animation.
