503 Animation Project: "Uncertain Lady Mary"(2/2)
In addition, Kamiya also put a lot of thought into arranging the facilities in Mr. Miyake's room.
Tables, chairs, paper and pens are all provided in the hotel itself, so you don't need to worry too much.
But as a writer in the new era, computers are also necessary production tools.
In terms of obtaining computers usable in the other world, Kamiyagawa entrusted Oishi Shunma and others to go to Akihabara and move the available equipment from Satoru's original residence to the hotel.
Not to mention, the collectibles Satoru had in his previous wild state were quite useful.
Her computer can even connect to real-world networks.
I still remember that Xiaowu could talk to real people through communication devices in the other world.
As for the principle of this, Kamiya can't understand it. He can only say that it is a "ghost signal", a "ghost IP" or something.
Anyway, it’s very convenient. You can even run away without paying network fees.
The paper, pen and computer are all available, and all the tools a writer needs for his work are available. Mr. Miyake can stay in the hotel with peace of mind while writing.
"Mr. Miyake, how are you doing here? If you need anything else, I'll find a way."
In the luxurious hotel room assigned to writers, Kamiya casually pulled up a chair and sat down.
Chiaki Miyake stood beside him, constantly looking at the room, and finally nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Lord Kamiya. I feel that I can start working here now."
"I will prepare for the establishment of a studio in the near future. If you can start writing scripts now, it will undoubtedly be of great help."
"Master Kamiya, is there anything else you want to confirm with me about the creative direction of the script?"
"Well... it's basically the same as what I told you before. The script you are creating now takes Miss Mary as the protagonist. Because of the faith I told you and other reasons, the character of Mary in the script must be the same as Joy.
Emotions, anger, and luck related.”
"I understand, a story with a ghost story as its theme."
"Then among the main characters, set up a dream-eating tapir. The key elements are dreams and fear. It doesn't matter whether it is Mary's partner or Mary's enemy. The important thing is that the roles of Mary and the dream-eating tapir are
It must be memorable, something that can leave a deep impression on the audience.”
Kamiyagawa's only customized requirement for the script is reflected in the character setting.
This first animation project is centered on Mary and the little tapir, who already have a working shrine.
Kamiyagawa: "I have asked Bunche Yaofei to scan and transfer some of the book reference materials you may use during the creation process to your computer. If you need anything else, please contact me. I will bring you the text in the afternoon.
Concubine Che went to the countermeasures room. There are many records of strange incidents there. I asked her to sort out some non-confidential ones and then pass them on to you. You can use them as a blueprint for plot creation."
Although Fumika Yoshibi was just born, she has now fully taken on the job of Kamiyagawa's personal secretary.
Perhaps due to the innate advantages born from the book, Yaofei handled the secretarial work very well and could not find any faults.
It is true that he has taken away most of the daily tedious chores for Kamiya.
"You have considered it very carefully." Chiaki Miyake nodded again.
"That's it for now, I won't disturb you. If you have any other needs, you can contact the seven-person Yuqian. They are the controllers here and have just introduced you to them. As long as you shout, one of the Yuqian should come to your room.
Here, they are the masters here, and in a sense they are everywhere - I hope you can create a refreshing script."
Kamiya didn't stay in the writer's room for long, and left after explaining the matter.
As for Chiaki Miyake, the current boss is pretty good.
He was not given any advice on creative matters. Except for the setting needs of the two main characters, he was given a lot of autonomy in other creative content.
The writer sat down in front of the newly decorated desk in the room and looked around again.
To be honest, the environment here is very good.
In fact, some writers in the industry do not choose to stay at home or in a club during the creative process, but stay in a resort hotel.
Firstly, you won't be disturbed by others at all, and secondly, you don't have to worry about daily life and food.
Even in Chiaki Miyake's memory, there seems to be a prison in Melbourne that rents out cells to writers for their creative use.
It can be said that the author paid money to be forced to lock himself in a real dark room, physically eliminating all realistic factors that affect his creation.
Chiaki Miyake turned on the slightly old-looking computer on his desk.
He did receive a compressed package of data.
After unzipping, the folders inside are divided into categories and are clearly organized. There are reference books that have been scanned very carefully, and there are also other electronic documents that record strange stories.
There is even a folder containing video materials.
The name of that folder is "Mary Image Reference".
Click on it and take a look, it seems to be a live broadcast slice of a virtual anchor——
Mary-chan, the host of urban ghost stories with a new personality.
Among the many videos, there is also a notepad:
[It has been confirmed that the copyright of the virtual anchor image is completely in the hands of the owner. As long as it does not affect the power setting of joy, anger, and luck, Mr. Miyake can freely refer to the virtual anchor's appearance or personality characteristics to construct the image of Mary in the script.]
"A virtual anchor?"
Miyake Chiaki couldn't help laughing.
Maybe this is also a way for the adult to spread Mary's faith?
What Kamiya-sama does seems to be more interesting than imagined.
After watching the slices of "Mary Sauce" for a while, the writer took a pen and wrote and drew on the paper to record his inspiration.
"Sir Kamiya's request is related to the spread of faith. I can roughly understand this aspect. However, I did not see the urban legend Miss Mary under that gentleman. Did she not show up?"
"Also, the new image setting, joy, anger, and luck required by Miss Mary are all very different from the original urban legend story. How can we make it easier for the audience to accept this and leave a deep impression..."
"Speaking of which, joy, anger, fortune, do gods with such a combination of authority really exist?"
The writer opened the reference book folder again, which contained books introducing Japanese gods, as well as books about gods from other countries.
Very detailed.
According to the search catalog created by Fumika Yauki, Miyake Chiaki searched for a while, and finally found a god that roughly matched this point.
Mahakala among the Seven Gods of Luck.
A god originating from India, in Hinduism it is the incarnation of Shiva.
In Japan, it is the god of good fortune, with kind eyes on all living beings, and endless blessings and longevity.
At the same time, Mahakala is also an angry god of death, responsible for driving away bad luck and killing evil spirits.
"This image has some similarities with the image of Miss Mary that Lord Kamiya asked me to create. I can consider making second changes based on this."
"In the script, the image of Mary should be more cute, so that the audience can fall in love with this character at first sight... You can refer to the personality characteristics of the virtual anchor. There is a market for female imps now, but they should not be too annoying. They have to be given
She sets some soft features...Mary when spreading joy and good fortune, and Mary when punishing evil spirits, can have big changes in appearance...or simply two different personalities..."
The writer got into working mode and had preliminary ideas in his mind.
He planned to create a royal story with Miss Mary as the protagonist, mainly telling the story of Miss Mary with a special divine background, spreading joy and luck, and punishing evildoers and evil spirits in a world where humans and ghosts coexist.
It is developed in the structure of a unit plot, with several episodes forming one chapter, and each chapter uses a different ghost story as its theme.
"Dream-Eating Tapir... is it set as the ultimate villain of the main line? Fear, dreams... In terms of appearance... the mature and evil sister can be contrasted with the appearance of the protagonist Miss Mary, Loli... It seems to be the same as Kamiya-sama's subordinates
There is a big difference between the Dream-Eating Tapir and the Dream-Eating Tapir, but that adult said that as long as the name corresponds to the authority and is memorable... let me think about it again..."
In fact, the image of Mary initially set by Mr. Miyake is completely different from the Mary of the Kamiya family.
But this is not a big problem. As long as the name and authority match and leave an impression on people, the corresponding shrine can be operated.
Swish.
As the ideas and outlines continued to be written down on paper, Chiaki Miyake also wrote down the theme name of this work that he had just thought of——
Chapter completed!
