His animation was produced together with Ghibli
His main task is to be a planning supervisor, screenwriter, etc.
There are also several of his masterpieces The original paintings are all drawn by himself
Generally speaking, animation production is a team production
The best thing about Hayao Miyazaki lies in his strong imagination and strong team leadership skills< /p>
First of all, he first conceives a project, which is mainly the stage for the development of the story, including what time and space are like, whether there are magical ghosts, etc. (He usually likes vague time and space. For example, "Castle in the Sky" integrates British industry. It has elements from the revolutionary era but also has a touch of adventurous science fiction. My Neighbor Totoro takes place in a contemporary era that has not yet been polluted, but My Neighbor Totoro is a figment of his imagination, making the real story a bit like a fairy tale. Wait, there are many such vague time and space. Example) In terms of character design, he likes women with independent personalities
and then makes up a story
But he is almost an automatic translator of words and pictures
When imagining the story, he could still draw the "story"
and then draw the storyboard (it is said that "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind" was directly drawn from the storyboard because of the tight time limit at the time and this The story is adapted from his original manga. There is already a lot of information and conditions for direct storyboarding, but overall it is still very powerful and awesome.)
Then other Ghibli staff will draw the story based on the storyboards. Components and actions (basically divided into two steps: one is to draw roughly and the other is to concrete the action)
Then the various artists will color it, etc.
Then it will be turned into animation on the machine (On the one hand, it relies on computer software, and on the other hand, it relies on Ghibli’s own special animation production machine)
Before turning it into animation, he will check the paintings drawn by the staff and reprocess them if necessary (in In "Princess Mononoke", he checked and modified 80,000 out of 120,000 total paintings. Awesome)
I'm sorry about the specific scope of his animation
It's just called animation< /p>
In China, there are colleges called animation production that study this major.
His animated films belong to the category of movies
But there are many differences in artistic methods between animation and live-action films. place of expression
For example, many shots in "Porco Rosso" cannot be shot in real scenes, but in cartoons they can indeed be drawn based on certain proportions and theoretical rationality, and they can be drawn. That kind of very real air combat feeling
Generally speaking, Hayao Miyazaki and Ghibli are one and the same, but he is too prominent. He is the boss in Studio Ghibli, so he is very dazzling, but we cannot deny that. The original animators and color designers who worked diligently on the paintings are important staff in the animated films
Many of the background scenes for his animations come from the materials he sketched when he went to Europe
< p>For example, the background of "Porco Rosso" is taken from the scenery around the Adriatic Sea in ItalyAnd the forest background of "Princess Mononoke" is taken from a nature reserve in Japan because the vegetation in that place is very dense. Like the Jomon period set in the film
The buildings in "Spirited Away" were inspired by the gardens of the Edo period
Generally speaking
I think It shouldn’t be difficult to make animation
But to reach the artistic height of Hayao Miyazaki
It’s impossible
Even in a hundred years there won’t be another one Hayao Miyazaki appears
Because his thinking is unique
If you want to surpass him, you need not only time but also your own unique thinking
Miyazaki Hayao Saki loves reading and reads a wide range of books
Animation is really not something you can do if you want to do it
I think animation is not limited to children

Can you watch "Blue Cat 3000 Questions"?
In his early days, Hayao Miyazaki collaborated with Ken Takaki on "Prince of the Sun". At that time, Hayao Miyazaki was quite immature.
But after more than 20 years of hard work, he produced "The Wind". Valley", "Castle in the Sky", "Kiki's Delivery Service", etc.
In "Porco Rosso" and "Princess Mononoke", we saw another breakthrough in his thinking
"Spirited Away" brave
Won the Golden Bear Award in 2002 (or was it 2001? I can’t remember, but the film was from 2001) (this is one of the highest awards in the film industry. He is the first person to win the award in the animation industry, and he is an awesome Asian. No) It shows that the status of animated films in the entire film industry is impressive
Because I also like Miyazaki Hayao very much and have read a lot of his research and his own book called "Starting Point" which is published in Taiwan. I don’t know where it is sold in China published by Hayao Miyazaki, but you can download part of it on Hayao Miyazaki’s official forum (some kind-hearted netizens have uploaded some in which he talks about how he makes animations and his interactions with other celebrities. Talk) The specific name is Miyazaki Hayao Film Studio Forum. You can search it directly on Baidu page
I feel that this man mainly relies on reading and drawing to build his animation
Then technology It is mainly handled by specialized personnel
But he knows every detail about costumes and props, etc., and often participates in guiding the staff to do their work
What knowledge do you have to ask about his animation design?
Art, history, architecture, literature, humanities and society, aircraft design (he has been an aircraft enthusiast since he was a child)
Fortunately, music has Hisaishi letting him handle it and it doesn’t bother him
Then in During the production process, he worked as a leader and also painted by himself
He designed the Hayao Miyazaki Museum
It’s fun to visit when traveling in the suburbs of Tokyo
