A good cartoon will be popular, so what is a good cartoon? A good animation works should first impress the audience and arouse their * * *. The second work should give people beautiful enjoyment, reflection and aftertaste. Third, it can be passed down.
To do this, we must first have a good story. No matter what the theme is, the plot is the most critical. Only when the content of the story attracts everyone will others want to watch your program. Detective Conan is a good example. Its story content is complete and orderly, and the plot is fascinating. Every time it will leave a lot of suspense for everyone, which is puzzling. Give people a space for self-imagination and let everyone have a detective addiction. When the mystery is solved, you will find that everything is so simple and so fine. You can't help but admire the hero's wit, which makes you feel like solving the case and looking forward to the next episode. The second is the character. When choosing to watch an animation, we mostly rely on the shape and characteristics of the character. Everyone in the play should have their own characteristics and unique personality. Personality should be prominent, and the shape should be beautiful, elegant and fashionable. For example, the beautiful girl warrior in "Beautiful Girl Warrior", the woody cherry in "Moka Girl Sakura", Shin Kuhn in "Rogue Mark" and so on. The characters portrayed by the author have distinct personalities and outstanding characteristics, which leave a deep impression on our minds, and their unique spirit will become our driving force for progress.
Then there is the scene. A scene is a modification of an animation. It is a key problem to reflect the level of animation. Some animation scenes are very gorgeous, giving people a kind of beautiful enjoyment, making people feel immersive. For example, the gorgeous effect of the transformation of the beautiful girl warrior seems to have unlimited release power. It makes people realize that justice is invincible. Full of strength, giving people spiritual encouragement. In fact, just add a little background and embellish the surrounding environment, the effect will be different and the scene will become spectacular.
Finally, there are some small details. Such as dubbing, theme song, details. The theme song of Japanese comics is also a major feature. The music they created is fashionable, full of vitality and of great appreciation value. It embodies the vigor, vitality and positive spirit of a new generation of people. We are enjoying the beautiful animation and the beautiful songs. The biggest feature of Japanese animation is the eyes. As the saying goes, "the eyes are the windows to the soul", we know the inner thoughts of the characters in the play when they frown, as if he were by our side, and we have become one. Then there is the animation of fighting. Just as the two sides were ready to make moves, a gust of wind blew over a leaf and fell to the ground. This tiny detail is enough to set off the tension and intense scene of the coming war. The Japanese describe these small details delicately and vividly, which adds a lot of color to the animation.
Japanese cartoons are loved not only by children but also by adults. They are made to meet the needs of all people. It will take into account the needs of people of all ages. In China, cartoons are only children's patents. In China, more than 95% people under the age of 20 watch cartoons. Most people watch Japan, accounting for 90%, Europe and the United States account for 7%, and domestic animation only accounts for 3%. More than 95% of adults regard cartoons as children's movies. It is often seen that when some middle school students watch cartoons, almost all parents hold objections. Accused by parents, you still watch children's programs at your age? Especially the students at school, their parents think that they will delay their studies, and they all think that they are older children and should not look at these childish things. Only a few parents agree or accompany their children to watch cartoons. Among these people who watch cartoons, nearly 1 0,000% are dissatisfied with China's cartoons, and think that Japanese cartoons are more contemporary and more in line with their tastes. When I mention cartoons to some 2x-year-old friends, I often answer that I don't watch children's toys. They just think that animation is always for children, for those children who have no mature ideas. 90% parents think that young children can still study, but they are not allowed to read a few books after entering middle school. They think it's a waste of time, delaying study and doing nothing. They also think that some cartoons are teaching children puppy love, which is too violent. Usually I don't want my children to watch cartoons, and I don't want my parents to watch TV dramas. China's cartoons have been arranged in children's programs such as lanterns and windmills. From the host and design, it is aimed at children aged six or seven. This is one of the disadvantages of China animation. It can't develop because it can only meet the needs of children.
The story content of Chinese cartoons is not innovative, the plot is simple, and most of them are boring legends. The Journey to the West, I don't know how many times. Animations with classical colors, such as "The List of Gods" and "Lotus Lantern", emerge one after another. It seems that he is walking in the mold left by the ancients and has no innovation of his own. Without innovation, it is like a person who has lost his heart and his body is empty. Although the appearance is beautiful, there is no content. After reading it, the audience got nothing and their minds were empty. Now is a new era. We don't need already familiar stories. The new generation likes fantasy, yearning and things that can never be realized, and animation can just realize our dreams. Every magic of the hero makes us envy, which is what we have been pursuing, but we will never get it. So unrealistic animation will be more popular with us.
Besides, the characters in Chinese cartoons are naive, but full of truth, losing the innocence and cuteness of children. The expression of the characters is monotonous and plain, and it is too real, without much modification. Give a person a kind of thin feeling. Of course, it doesn't mean that people who don't decorate are not good, such as crayon Shinchan and cherry maruko. The characters are also very single, but they don't give people a thin feeling. On the contrary, people prefer this. Because the personality characteristics of the characters are more prominent. Like five-year-old Xiao Xin, she goes to kindergarten to play with children every day, teasing her mother, watching beautiful women, watching super action heroes and sleeping in. The style of the film is simple and naive, and its "nonsense" exaggeration and vulgar and funny way cater to the appetite of urbanites. The characters we designed are too standard, too vivid and lacking in imagination. The characters in Japanese anime are young, fashionable, energetic and imaginative, such as humanizing the cat and making it look like an adult; Or put a tail on a person's back.
Let's start with the scene effect. The single environment is the biggest problem. We seldom work hard in the surrounding environment. Insufficient atmosphere rendering will often lead to monotonous pictures, and some effects will make people feel fake and not very ornamental.
In detail, the voice of the voice actor is a little naive, and he doesn't put his feelings into the story. I think you all know the anime Naruto. I have seen several episodes of dubbing, and the results have greatly disappointed me. The voice of the character is dull and emotionless. It's like a recognition. When it comes to emotion, the voice is still flat. It doesn't show the hero's fighting spirit and sense of justice at all. Our voice actor is like a child who hasn't grown up yet. He can't let go. Niu Niu is pinching. They are not fully integrated into the story, nor are they integrated with the protagonist. I didn't really feel the feeling of the protagonist. Just dubbing according to your own wishes. In this way, this classic cartoon has lost its charm. Our music is also quite dull and has no flavor of the times. It feels like a nursery rhyme, only for children. Can not meet the needs of teenagers too much. In contrast, the theme song of Japanese animation is more energetic and youthful.
We have summarized everyone's views on China's animation, and most of them think that China's dialogue is too fake and unattractive, which is true. Did not understand the real needs of the audience. It's the same thing over and over again, nothing new. The characters are too simple to be impressed after reading them. I feel that there are several books fooling children, all of which are fooling children.
This is the fundamental reason why Chinese cartoons have not made a big breakthrough for a long time! China's animation can be described in two words, that is childish. When China people make cartoons (people who really make works), their thoughts are mostly confined to the circle of children's programs, and they should also educate their children. When people all over China realize that animation is no longer a children's program, domestic animation will really develop.
We have summed up the shortcomings of China's animation above, and don't want to deny it blindly. But to help it grow and navigate for it. We still have a long way to go, and we sincerely hope that our animation can be as popular in the world as Japan.
