My Cartoonist Strategy
Chapter 16 Su Han and her script
In addition to interesting stories, the fracturing of "Shaky" is better than the average comics, the use of large and small grids, some of the tricks of the mirror, and the use of it is just right.
At the same time, the composition of this comic is also very characteristic.The intentional or unintentional actions of female characters, Chen Zijiao will be drawn from a unique perspective, there is an indescribable temptation.
Perhaps because he often draws books, he also has a different understanding of the character's skin color.The highlight of the skin under the light allows the reader to appreciate the character's blown skin at a glance.
Shen Xin rubbed his forehead, if only Chen Zijiao, his pressure is not too great.
The story is the soul of comics. If there is no good story, even if Chen Zijiao's painter is even more powerful, he will not worry.
But now it's different. Thanks to Su Han's joining, the comic script is also guaranteed.
The future development of "Shaky" is completely a mystery.
It may be a funny style like "The First Mix in History", it may be as full of "meat" as "Queen of Outing", or it may even be a story of a hero saving the world.
Shaky...
Su Han did not make it clear what was "shaky", what if the world "shaky"?This is the hero comic.
Moreover, Su Han is a writer who has completed the experience and is very popular. There is no such thing as writing a story, so the subsequent development of the story should not exceed her control.
"It's really powerful... It's not easy to win him. The only good news should be that Su Han hasn't written an easy novel." Shen Xin took a sip of coffee and was very bitter.
Yan Wei looked at the lost Shen Xin and opened his mouth. After a bit of ideological struggle, he gritted his teeth again and continued to ask, "I thought about it, I still think this matter should be told to you."
"What's the matter?" Shen Xin looked at Yan Fu with surprise.
"Have you seen the monthly Comic Futura this month?" Yan Fan asked.
The average small magazine usually has only one comic magazine, but giants like "Comic Futura" usually have monthly or brotherly publications.
"Monthly? No." Shen Xin shook his head.
Yan Wei pulled out a magazine from the shoulder bag and placed it in front of Shen Xin. "This month's "Community Futura" is also very exciting. I went to all bookstores, and the store manager recommended this magazine. It is said that the sales volume of this issue of the magazine is also in the top few places in its history, because of the comic on the cover."
"Comics on the cover?" Shen Xin's eyes moved to the cover of the magazine.
A teenager dressed as a middle school student hugged a diary tightly.Under the character, there are two words, "crime".
But Shen Xin's attention was attracted by the line below "crime".
"Original: Su Han".
"Eh? Su Han? Is this a person?" Shen Xin surprised.
"This is "Comic Futura", and its weekly magazine is China's biggest-selling magazine. So, don't doubt the quality of the story. Su Han, as a best-selling writer with a sales volume of 1 million copies, has the strength to serve on "Comic Futura" Original." Yan Fan explained.
"I know, but can she really take care of both sides?"
And it's a completely different type.
Shen Xin put a big question mark in his heart.
Yan Fan spread her hands, "Not sure, who knows what she thinks."
Shen Xin looked at the cover again, "Painting, Ye Hexu (xu), the name is familiar, Sister Yan, do you know who he is?"
"This year's 18-year-old genius cartoonist published five short-story comics in the monthly comic Futura last year. This year's five-story comics were published together, and sold 500,000 copies in two months.
"It sounds very powerful." Shen Xin smiled dryly, "Can I read this comic?"
"Yes, but you don't want to spoil, I haven't read it yet!" Yan Fan reminded.
"Got it." Shen Xin quickly opened the magazine and found "Penalty."
This is a slightly disturbing story about a high school student named Yang Chen who is often bullied at school.One night I went home on my own study, opened the drawer to find the refill, but found a blank diary.
He had never seen this diary, but the diary appeared in his drawer. The cover reads "Book of Prophecy". Each page has two boxes above and below. "The watermark, and the square below, is printed with "Answer".
In the first remark, Yang Chen was still bullied by schoolmates, and those who bullied him were even related to people in society.It seemed that Yang Chen couldn't get rid of the bully's doom before graduation, and what role the notebook had in the end was not reflected in the first words.
Students, diary, reasoning...
These elements gathered together, so Shen Xin thought of a comic-"Death Note".
In "Death Note", Night God Moon uses "Death Note" to extend "justice".However, "Penalty" is different. According to the prompt in the first sentence, this notebook is more inclined to "foresee", and Yang Chen's fate is also more miserable than the night god Yueyue.
The content of "Death Note" is "what is justice", while "crime" expresses "rebellion and self-help".
Shen Xin didn't expect that anyone in this world could think of using notepad as a carrier for reasoning.From this point of view, it is similar to "Death Note".
The drawing of "Penalty" is also excellent. This painter named Ye Hexu has a good grasp of the story. The splitting is smooth and easy. The composition of each grid is almost the best choice.
This painter is more powerful than Chen Zijiao...No, Chen Zijiao can't compare with him at all, it's not a grade at all.
Ye Hexu's painters are as good as most well-known cartoonists, whether they are realistic or fine-grained, or even the language of comics.
The more crucial point is that, without knowing whether it is a psychological factor, Shen Xin feels that Su Han is more attentive to "Penalty", and the quality of the story of "Penalty" is also above "Shaky".
The original author is good at stories, while the painter is good at splitting and painting.
This combination is so familiar...Isn't it the teacher of size?
Shouldn't it be such a coincidence?
Shen Xin locked his eyes on the cover again.
"How is it?" Yan Wei saw Shen Xin's face a little strange and a little worried.
"This "crime" should be the new pillar of the monthly magazine Comic Futura?" Shen Xin asked.
"It's not clear... However, the combination of Ye Hexu and Su Han does have the potential to become a new pillar, but it's a pity..." Yan Wan sighed.
"What a pity?" Shen Xin puzzled.
"If the "crime" is published in the monthly comic Futura, it means that he will lose the qualification to run for the "new king". Yan Yan said.
"Newcomer King?" Shen Xin blinked.
As a person who wants to become a full-time cartoonist, Shen Xin certainly knows that in October, the magazine agency represented by the "Three Major Magazines" will hold a comic festival in Hongchuan.At the ceremony, the editors of the major magazines selected many comic awards, as well as expensive bonuses. Newcomer Wang is one of the awards, but Shen Xin does not know the specific details.
"Is that... what's the relationship between the publication in "Community Futura" and the selection of "New King"?" Shen Xin wondered.
"Of course it does! And... the relationship is still great." Yan Fan said seriously.
