Episode 1 - Now this is interesting, a series about the realistic problems an anime studio faces during production. Episode 6 - poo poo, the director escaped from his cage! And I love it.

I'm really enjoying seeing the end product of each conflict arc. It's just a really satisfying way to conclude each crisis. I don't know much about the actual production of animation; how accurate were the key frames at the end to what an animator would actually produce? Like, were they prettied up significantly or simplified for the show?

And my (not really mine, somebody else came up with it in an old thread) dream of an animated moe rendition of Waiting for Godot comes one step closer to fruition. Also, more Tokyo Drift action. I don't quite get why both of the two studios are using that same lady but I guess anime has freelancers of that sort?

It doesn't update anymore (edit: or it does and isoreader just doesn't update the feed for some reason...) but it has a lot of examples of keyframe art.

It's pretty cool that while they were in the exhibit the background music was pretty close to Ideon's OP theme.

What is "Mountain Hedgehog/Porcupine Andes Chucky" referring to? Also, I gotta say, Tarou is growing on me. He's somewhat incompetent but he's a good person who provides needed comic relief. Probably the most "moe" character (hopelessly pathetic but in a cute way) in the show. He's also the only guy drawn in the big-eyed, flat-nosed style of the girls on the show. I kinda hope he gets with Aoi just to see the rage on 4chan, MAL, etc. Edit: ever since I found out Kinoshita's VA voiced Madarame I can't stop hearing it. This guy has such an unique, slightly raspy voice. sincx fucked around with this message at 02:30 on Nov 14, 2014 |

In this episode Tarou displays his single good point: everyone around him forms a bond of shared loathing.

Tarou is so bad that he can't even give the premise of an anime without people getting mad at him, that takes talent. I hope the show eventually addresses why he's not fired because holy crap I want to know his secrets.

I'm working on my first TV animation production right now and this show hits really close to home. Except their schedule seems like its cranked up to 11. The Japanese work ethic is really... insane? I think that's the word I'm looking for.

The Japanese work ethic is really... insane? I think that's the word I'm looking for. I've had a production for an hour-long special where we were given maybe 2 months to produce it, 2 weeks of which the studio (not the people who proposed and commissioned the special) to come up with the script. VH1 had no idea how to commission a studio with a sensible timeframe.

Yeah, it seems animation is really being squeezed by people not wanting to pay for content anymore. I dunno, I'm trying to remain optimistic because I just managed to get into the industry, but there's a lot of doom and gloom from people who have been in the industry for a while. Anyway, at least it's better than Japan.

The KA actually shown in the show was completely realistic, actual KA. It was also really really good and they got a good animator in to do it, lol. http://sakuga.yshi.org/post/show/10562/animals-animated-creatures-effects-genga-kiyotaka_ Here's some examples of raw genga from the Space Dandy blurays.

Just finished watching the episode. Taro status: still the worst, and it's great that everybody recognizes it. A small selection: "Why didn't you come to me right away?" "I'm sorry!" "Not you, HIM!" "See?" "Don't "See?" me!" "I'm glad things were solved by my hard work!" "Did that just come out of your mouth?"

And thus, Tarou is clearly not Producer material. Director is a whole other ball game however.

Of course, the only person causing more problems in this production than Tarou is the director.

I'm sure whoever did it was psyched about it--it's probably pretty rare for their work to be broadcast as-is without going through the rest of the production process, and he/she had a lot of motivation to make it look good.

Good news: Tarou was only a useless shithead for one or two scenes this week Bad news: Poor Ema. You really get a sense of the standard she holds herself to and how that negatively affects her psyche. And the really sucky part is that despite obviously being too hard on herself, I can't even say she's completely wrong. Like she said, she is a professional now, so empty platitudes like "do the best you can" no longer apply. You need to perform to the standard your work demands or you won't advance. It's no wonder she's so stressed right now.

I found this chart of typical salaries in the anime industry. I knew it was bad for people at the bottom of the totem pole, but not this bad: And just how many voice actors are considered "A-list"? It can't be too many.

If you're wondering how Japan can make so much animation for such a small, otaku audience: there you go.

Scholarships plus part-time work, maybe? (I've got no clue either.) Re: college students, also in this episode: "I've just now woken up after being up late last night, and I was planning to stay in and do nothing all day." Speaking as a member of the working class: college students can gently caress right off

I hope things get better for Ema next episode. I'm sure old man animator has some more sage advice that can help out. I trust in him  As a side note, what the hell lady. Don't eat someone else's donut.
