My Cartoonist Strategy

The whole room does not seem to be unoccupied for a long time.

The brown wooden floor is clean and bright, as if it has just been cleaned by a person, and there is no dust or moldy smell in the room.

This studio is very large and should be converted from a three-bedroom, one-room room.There are four desks in the living room, two desks with drawing boards, and two desks with writing desks.

"This is where the assistant works." Yan Wei pointed to the four tables in the living room. "Although there are only two people for the time being, but in case of work tension or "Y's" fire, we may find other assistants. We are also preventive. Not yet. In addition, the printer and computer are in the corner, which is convenient for printing or processing photos. You can also send me the name by fax, but the original, I have to come and get it myself."

"no problem."

"Your studio is in the next room, and the other two rooms are bedrooms. If someone goes back late and can't catch the subway or shuttle, you can rest here." Yan Wei led Shen Xin and gave a brief introduction to the room.

Although standing downstairs, I think this building is relatively shabby, but the decoration inside is what Xin Xin likes.Elegant and tidy, there are no extra accessories, and the air conditioner, refrigerator, and washing machine are relatively complete. In addition, there is also a balcony outside the living room.

Hair dryer and clothes drying are very good.

"Is there anything else I need to mention." Yan Wei asked Shen Xin again when she returned to the living room.

"I want to lift my table out." Shen Xin asked, pointing to whatever desk.

"Why?" Yan Wan puzzled.

Sometimes, the assistant sometimes needs some personal affairs and needs to call to communicate.Whether it is intentional or not, it is easy to affect others.For this reason, many cartoonists want to be separated from assistants.

"If I and my assistant are separated by a wall, it is easy to create a gap. Small problems in the draft will also be retained because of the existence of the wall and the door, which reduces communication. It is better to let me and the assistants together. If in doubt, You can discuss it directly."

"Also." Yan Wei nodded slightly and lifted his sleeves, "Come, I'll help you."

"You?" Shen Xin pouted, unbelief.

"I knew you didn't believe it." Yan Wei didn't force it, but took out his phone, dialed a call, and asked where the other party was. After hanging up, he said to Shen Xin, "Wait a moment."

Shen Xin looked at Yan Wei suspiciously, not knowing why, but soon, he heard heavy footsteps in the corridor.

what happened?

Shen Xin hurried to the door, but saw eight young people carrying a stack of books, and climbed to the fifth floor.

"It's all your favorite things." Yan Wan said, turning his head.

what?

Shen Xin was a little puzzled and couldn't figure out what kind of books he liked.

Soon after eight people entered the room, they placed the book on the floor. Shen Xin saw the book on the ground and almost scolded.

Among the eight stacks of books, there is a stack of "Pink Circle" and a stack of sketches of the human body.

Do you like these things?

Shen Xin now talks a hundred words, he did not look at these things because he liked them.

Feeling Shen Xin's "unfriendly" gaze, Yan Fan turned away indifferently.

In addition to the "Pink Circle" and sketches of the human body, there are some books related to comics, including how to get online, how to draw backgrounds, and even romance novels, as well as books for writing scripts.

In order to ensure that Shen Xin can successfully create comics, Yan Wei also made a bloody contribution.

But the problem is, he doesn't necessarily have time to read them all.

Yan Wei directed the porter to move the desk out of the study and placed it by the window. At the same time, Shen Xin also stuffed the books into the study shelf.

On the first day of the end of the porting work, Shen Xin moved his shoulders, a little sore.However, the results were not bad, his studio was transformed into a small living room and a small study,

On the occasion of parting, Yan Lu assured Shen Xin that he would find a suitable assistant as soon as possible.

Speaking very quickly, in fact, Shen Xin also knows that it can be difficult to find it within a week.Before that, the drawing of color pages fell on him, and the work of copying drafts and tracing lines was all carried out in an orderly manner.

The first 25 pages are color manuscripts, so when Shen Xin draws, whether it is manuscript paper or ink, it needs special purchase.

Ordinary ink will fade when it encounters water, so when drawing a color draft, choose a water-resistant ink, and in order to cooperate with it, the cartoonist will also choose the original paper for the cover to paint.

It took three or four days for Shen Xin to draw the first line draft, and the schools also started school during this time.

Xi Mumo formally became a high school student. After repeated thinking, Shen Xin decided to grant a student loan-"Y's" has not just started serialization, there can be no manuscript fees, and the supplies of comics are also a big expense. Consider these Factors, Shen Xin can only drag the tuition fee back for a period of time, wait for the manuscript fee down, and then pay the tuition fee.

Shen Xin just went to school on the day of school, and went to a second-hand bookstore to buy the textbooks for the second grade.(Note)

After that, he didn't go to school anymore, but he nested in the studio and worked hard to draw color drafts.

"Boom..."

"Please come in." Shen Xin, who was painting at the desk, heard someone knock on the door and said casually.

The door of the room was opened. When Yan Fan pushed the door in and saw Shen Xin who had just raised his head, he waved and greeted him.

"Sister Yan, please come in." Shen Xin also stood up from the seat.

"Do you two come in too?" Yan Fan waved slightly towards the two people behind him, and Shen Xin's eyes also moved behind Yan Wei.

These two people are relatively young, they should be in their 20s and 30s.

The boy has long hair, deep eyes, fair skin, and beard on his lips and chin.His height is only about one meter seven, which is a little shorter than Shen Xin.

The girls have pony tails and freckles on their cheeks. They look quietly Wenwen, and look bigger than boys.

Yan Wei pointed to the long-haired boy and said, "His name is Qiao Yu. He is a student of Yunhai Comic College. He just graduated this year. Originally thinking of working in the comic industry, he now wants to be an assistant for a while and accumulate experience."

"Oh, hello, my name is Shen Xin." Shen Xin and Qiao Yu shook hands.

Due to the development of the comic industry, some institutions will hire some teachers to teach comic skills and comic knowledge that comic lovers have thought about, but due to the different resources of the school, the level of teachers they can find is also high or low.Moreover, these schools do not teach students how to write scripts.

Therefore, many of the students who graduated from these comic schools are semi-finished products, and in terms of basic skills, such as sketching and sketching, they are not as good as professional students like Shen Xin.

"The teacher is so young." Qiao Yu said softly.

"I am still a school student." Shen Xin quickly explained.

When the girl heard that Shen Xin was a school student, she couldn't help but look at Shen Xin. "You are a school student? So young, it turns out to be a serial cartoonist."
