Chapter 16 Unreliable demand table!
Chapter 16 Unreliable demand table!
At noon the next day, Ma Yang sent the revised demand form to Pei Qian.
Pei Qian looked at it, and the demand form was done really well.
It's just like not writing!
Although Pei Qian has never been in the game industry, this demand form is a template on the resource site, and some basic rules for writing demand forms are briefly mentioned above.
Simply put, the more details the better.
The image proposed by the designer is often illusory and vague, while the image that the artist wants to draw is often concrete and detailed.
In this process, it is very easy to deviate.
For example, a designer wants a "very handsome male character", which is a rather vague standard that cannot be quantified at all.
What does it mean to be "extremely handsome"?
Will the designer be satisfied if the artist draws a character that he thinks is particularly handsome?Not necessarily.
After all, aesthetics is a very subjective thing.
Therefore, the designer should be as detailed as possible when raising the requirements. It is best to be precise about what clothes, hats, weapons, and obvious features the character wears.
It would be even better if there is a similar reference picture.
There is a joke in the game circle:
Design to tell the program: "What kind of function do I want! What is the design concept of this function, and what effect does it want to achieve!"
The program said impatiently: "Just tell me which function of which game you copied, and show it to me."
The designer said to the artist: "What kind of character do I want! What kind of appearance and personality should this character have, and what kind of feeling should be highlighted!"
The artist said impatiently: "Just tell me which character to copy, and show me the picture."
It's not all because I want to be lazy, but mainly because too much information is lost from text to picture.
When making a similar demand form, it is natural that the more detailed the description, the richer the reference pictures, the better, so as to ensure that the things drawn by the artist do not deviate too much from the original image in the designer's mind.
Look at the demand form given by Ma Yang.
It's all about self-indulgence!
Take Guan Yu as an example.
"He's a dragon, a humanoid dragon."
"As a warrior of the dragon clan, he is considered the pinnacle of martial power."
"Walking on the tip of a knife all his life, his understanding of fighting and killing is completely different from that of ordinary people."
Gone.
Another example is Ma Chao.
"The shape is half human and half horse, so it is called 'foreign race'."
"Ma Chao is different from other centaur princes, with obvious characteristics of dragon blood, such as the first-born dragon horns."
"Perhaps it is because of half of the dragon's blood that Ma Chao has obtained a powerful force similar to that of the dragon."
Another example is Zhuge Liang.
"Zhuge Liang in his youth was hailed as the greatest inventor, physicist, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer during the Three Kingdoms period."
"His research covers many cutting-edge fields such as artificial lightning, weather weapons, aircraft, automatic vehicles, and robots."
"At the same time, he enjoys multiple titles such as poet, philosopher, music connoisseur, and linguist."
Zhuge Liang's descriptions are more than those of the previous two people, and it is obvious that Ma Yang wrote it as soon as he wrote it.
In addition, there are guarding dragon girl Zhou Cang, phoenix orphan Pang Tong, crystal ice girl Xu Shu, mechanical puppet Huang Yueying, blood domain lord Guo Jia, dragon hunting loli Lu Meng, night ranger Tai Shici, lonely shadow sword hero Zhou Yu, etc. series of characters.
Basically, except for the name and some corner features, it is completely out of line with the characters of the Three Kingdoms!
These contents are basically of no help to the artist's creation.
Moreover, it can obviously be written in more concise words.
For example, just write "Guan Yu is a human-shaped dragon" directly, and the following words are completely nonsense.
But for Pei Qian, this is a perfect demand form!
He even punched himself in delight.
As expected of Ma Yang, reliable!
It is absolutely impossible for Pei Qian to write this kind of thing by himself!
Sure enough, it was a very correct choice to recruit Ma Yang as his employee!
Pei Qian didn't change a single word, and directly sent the demand form to Ruan Guangjian.
After 5 minutes, Ruan Guangjian replied.
"Isn't your demand list too omitting???"
"It's very difficult for me to draw like this, there is no clear standard."
Pei Qian had been prepared for a long time, and immediately said: "It's okay, you open the painting and design as you like! Even if you think this demand is unreliable, it's fine if you don't follow it completely. I believe in your professional ability!"
Ruan Guangjian: "...No, we have signed the contract, there must be a standard, if the time comes, won't it be troublesome?"
Pei Qian hurriedly said: "Really! I completely trust your artistic level, don't worry, you will be what you draw when the time comes, and you will never be allowed to revise it repeatedly! You can keep the screenshot of my passage as evidence. Or if you think it is necessary, we can write it into the contract."
"That's not necessary... okay, let me see." Ruan Guangjian replied.
Pei Qian felt relieved.
He was really afraid that Ruan Guangjian would insist on publishing a particularly detailed version of the original painting, and then draw it seriously.
Now it's like this, both parties are trouble-free and happy.
There was still some money left, and Pei Qian didn't keep it. The next step was to buy music and sound effects, buy other art resources, rent cloud servers, and so on.
These don't cost too much money. Pei Qian's calculations were just right, and he only left about 1 yuan for emergencies.
As for the promotion funds for the game...
Of course there was no money left.
There is no plan to promote it at all!It's better that no one knows about this game!
Pei Qian felt that his future was bright, so he continued to spend money.
……
A university of finance and economics in Shanghai.
The dormitory of the art department.
The accommodation here is much better than that of Handong University where Pei Qian is.
Bed and table, the dormitory is air-conditioned, very new and very spacious.
Thanks to the resource station established by ESRO, many art students can receive some private work online during their college years to improve their lives a little.
Moreover, the works during this period are also good for job hunting after graduation.
Ruan Guangjian put down the mouse and shouted: "Old Huang, Lao Zhou, hurry up, call the others, and finally come back to life!"
Soon, the other five people in the dormitory gathered around.
"Three weeks, 50 sets of original paintings, a set of 4, 3000 yuan! How about it, awesome?"
Ruan Guangjian is a very energetic young guy with short hair, fair skin, and good facial features. He does not look like an artist at all.
His roommates are quite different. Some have long hair and some have tattoos. Anyway, they all have their own characteristics.
Lao Huang, with a small mustache, was the first to come over: "3000 yuan for 4 pieces? Fuck, it's ok! Just for this price, I'll accept the Q version too! For the sake of living."
Ruan Guangjian shook his head: "What Q version, it's not Q version this time! The customer called for the Q version by name, other styles are optional!"
Lao Huang was shocked: "Huh? I remember that all the representative works you uploaded are Q version? This client also specified that Q version is not required, so is he out of his mind and looking for you?"
"Fart, I know people with a good eye!" Ruan Guangjian rolled his eyes, "I hate drawing Q versions, but now that Q versions of characters are popular in mobile games, I could only receive orders for Q versions before, and I had no choice but to do so. Now that I don’t draw the Q version, I finally have a chance to show my strengths!”
"You want to paint your own style? It's not suitable..." Lao Huang hesitated, "The client spends money, but you use the money to paint what you want to paint, this..."
"The client said, believe in my artistic level and professional ability, let me design completely independently!"
"And you look at this demand list, it just coincides with my idea!"
