What are the steps involved in making an animation?

(1) Determine the script: Like other film and television dramas, for cartoons, the script is still "the book of a play".

2) Storyboarding: The director draws a sketch of the storyboard similar to a broken picture.

3) Character modeling: The main creative staff will do the character modeling and scene design according to the script and storyboard.

4) Original art creation: All key pictures are drawn by the animation designer.

5) Illustration production: The assistant animator draws the middle picture of the two original paintings, and then the rest of the artists complete the continuous action painting of the character.

6) Drawing and coloring: Printing the animation sketch on the film to draw and color.

7) Shooting: After shooting with a special movie camera, edit according to the order of the script and the director's requirements.

8) Dubbing soundtrack: After recording, the recorded dialogue, **, and sound effects are synthesized on the film film.

First model, then make the model move, and finally add special effects and sounds.

1.Storyboard: The director draws a sketch similar to *** according to the text script to show the actions described in the script. While drawing the shots in the storyboard, there should be corresponding explanations for the actions, lines, time, camera instructions, and screen connections.

2.Design: The design work includes character design, scene design, prop design and lens design, etc., and the design should be carried out in accordance with strict standards.

3.Original Storyboard: There is also a special storyboard paper for animation, with printed rectangular grids on it, in which the rough outline of each scene of the animation is drawn.

4.Dubbing Editing: Anime requires editing just like movies, but editing is relatively simple and combines each shot in order, appropriately.

Animation production is usually divided into pre-production, mid-production, post-production, etc. The pre-production also includes planning, work setting, and fund raising. Mid-production includes storyboards, concept art, intermediate art, animation, coloring, background painting, photography, dubbing, sound recording, etc.

Post-production includes editing, special effects, subtitles, compositing, test screenings, and more.

It can also be divided into four stages: overall planning, design and production, specific creation and shooting production.

1. Master plan for 2D animation:

The first is the script, and the script of the anime determines whether the anime work is attractive or not. According to the script, the director has to draw a sketch of the story similar to *** to show the actions described in the script. In a typical 30-minute animation script, if you set up about 400 storyboards, you will have to draw a picture script with about 800 pictures.

Develop a schedule for the entire film production to guide the work of all parties in the animation creation group in a unified and coordinated manner.

Second, pay attention to the creation of sound in animation:

A two-dimensional animation is an audiovisual language, and sound and picture are two very important parts of the language. When a 2D animation production company is producing, it will bring unexpected surprises when handling the dubbing, **, sound effects and picture matching.

3. Pay attention to the design of the storyboard:

A professional 2D animation production company's grasp of storyboard scripts allows animators to complete the animation of actual needs in the shortest time through storyboard scripts, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire production process.

Fourth, the two-dimensional animation of the material of the drawing or lead system:

2D animation is composed of simple agitated geometric drawing of complex scenes, good painting skills and color matching skills can greatly improve the overall visual experience, and produce 2D animation that satisfies customers.

5. Editing of 2D animation in the later stage:

Post-editing is a crucial step in getting the rhythm right. In the process of 2D animation, post-editing can check whether the animation can be synchronized with the dubbing, and control the amount of information carried by the picture at the appropriate rhythm to get more audiences.

Planning: This is what you have to do before you do anything, which determines the direction of all the steps that follow. Among them, the chief director has to play the direction of the entire plot, and also control the budget and time, and complete the overall production of the team's animation.

Art design: Art design depends on the design of the art team, the designer should embody the imagination, from nothing to something, need to make props for the character, the design of clothing, and then add color to make it infectious.

Animation is a group activity that requires close coordination. Therefore, in addition to a good script, an experienced director, and of course, charismatic character modeling is an important factor in making the work more attractive.
