the animation society of the province has reached hundreds of
1 societies in the province, which are the backbone forces
Cosplay, the short term of the English costume play, which means the use of clothing, ornaments, props and make-up to play anime. Products, game roles, known as the "reality show", these role-playing people are called Coser. To make a perfect copy of the anime, the role of the game, and make an excellent stage work, in addition to the excellent Coser, it also needs the advanced producer, makeup artist, photographer and so on.
Wang Yue is a small famous late producer in the animation circle in the province, and Tang Juan is an idiomatic Coser who loves to kill immortals, two people do not belong to any community, and the free man in the circle. How big is this circle? Some of Wang Yue's introduction was quite surprising:
in 1999, Zhao Miaomiao and others started the "original painting workshop" in Ji'nan, starting to play cosplay. "They were the earliest people in the province, they were also playing earlier in the country, and some national contests in the domestic animation industry were only after 2000." It just started. " Now Ji'nan has a name of the name of the animation club has at least twenty or thirty, many organizations are strong, members are more than 80 young people, the backbone of the age of more than 25 years old, many have graduated from college or are studying, some players have married, "Tang Juan and I have graduated," But it doesn't interfere with continuing to play cosplay. " Wang Yue told reporters that in an ordinary cartoon society, there are more than a dozen Coser, and there are 3-4 people behind each Coser. "You calculate, how many people are there in the light community?" It does not include a free man like me. " Wang Yue said, this is only the situation in Ji'nan, Qingdao because of the regular animation exhibition, the development of animation associations is relatively rapid, "there are a lot of very good big Coser, but the strength of the community and Ji'nan is still less than a lot."
it is understood that in 2003, when the first Qilu International Animation Exhibition was held in Ji'nan, only Ji'nan had two decent animation associations in the province. Nowadays, there are about 100 animation associations in Shandong Province, most of which are concentrated in Ji'nan and Qingdao.
2 national champion is born with professional talent
"the prison of fire" is a medium scale animation club in the provincial capital. When it was founded in 2005, President Wang Xiaoqing was only a 16 year old female student. Now, not only has she graduated from University, she has also grown into a mature manager and excellent Coser. Her friend is also a super Anime fan, told reporters that Wang Xiaoqing has just won the bronze medal of the Shandong International Animation Carnival this year, and everyone is waiting for her. In the "prison of fire" in the number of ten people, Coser, American workers, props and late producer, the smallest member 16 years old, the largest 26 years old. "It's an old man like me." Yun Feng, 26, told reporters that he was responsible for the post production of sound effects, photography and image processing in the community.
now, the animation club in the province has become more and more specialized. Some large animation agencies, in order to participate in all kinds of cosplay events at home and abroad, will not only be equipped with professional makeup artists, photographers, but also have to hire professional martial arts guidance. "There has been a photo studio in Ji'nan that provides make-up and photography services for comic and animation communities, near the western market." Zhan Yunfeng told reporters that with the expansion of the circle, Ji'nan has also emerged a number of domestic first-class Coser, such as "the king of scarlet" and "the mountain is not bright".
according to the introduction, the major major events in the animation industry are: the Qilu International Animation Exhibition held in Ji'nan in Ji'nan each year respectively; the China Joy Cosplay national finals in Shanghai at the end of July, the CJ finals for short, the WCS (World COSPLAY Summit) Finals held in Nagoya, Japan at the end of August. Among them, Qilu international animation exhibition is hosted by the Ji'nan Municipal Bureau of culture and has been held for twelve consecutive times. The competition in the period of may one year is also the selection of the CJ finals in Shandong, and the first two will represent Shandong to Shanghai.
when the reporter interviewed, Wang Yue and Tang Juan, the Freeman of animation, were making final preparations for the players who are going to Shanghai to take part in the CJ finals. This year, on behalf of Shandong, the work of "six two family groups" is the work of "the network of swordsman love network three" and "the anger of the One Piece's allanzan group". Among them, the six double family group is a joint formation of the six big cartoon giants in the provincial capital, and the British animation society is a powerful Association of the Shandong Normal University in recent years. "Shandong has a good record in the CJ finals, so far, though only three times, it has won a national silver medal for the first time."
"in addition to the most popular CJ national finals, the animation industry in the province still has a great news this year: the two people from Ji'nan won the 2010 WCS China championship with the 3 in the remote space and time, and will go to Nagoya, Japan to participate in the WCS final." Wang Yue said that the two players were from Linyi to Ji'nan, and the performance was very tacit understanding. "Everyone in the circle jokes that they are twin sisters." "3 in distant space and time" was originally a Japanese computer game, and later adapted to animated works.
3 is a different
3 of the stage performance and drama as a new thing that came into the public view after 2000. Many people's understanding of cosplay is still on the surface of gorgeous costumes and exaggerated props, even confuse it with the drama, and take the eye of a series of drama to look at it. In this regard, Wang Yue told reporters that although Cosplay and drama are stage art, but the difference between the two is very large.
the first difference is sound effect. Unlike the scene dialogue of the drama actor, Coser should wear heavy, complicated clothes, hand hold sword and other props in the stage to fight and show, and the physical consumption is very large. So it is impossible to carry on the scene dialogue, and only follow the sound effect recorded in advance to the mouth, the difficulty is very difficult. "Big," like the Coser who plays the holy warrior, the armour worn on the body is nearly 20 jin, wearing a helmet on the head, and holding a heavy sword in hand, and it is impossible to make a dialogue at all. "
the second difference is that in order to get closer to the archetype of the anime or the game, COSPLAY has more men and women than the play. Because in the competition, in addition to clothing and props, the body image of Coser should be closer to the prototype, so as to achieve a more perfect imitation effect, so in order to find the close Coser, often need to be a woman dress, disguised as a men's dress. "In our circle, there is a girl who is a professional woman dressed as a man. After finishing her makeup, you simply don't recognize her as a girl."
"another big difference is that playing Cosplay is a pure burn." Wang Xiaoqing, the head of the "prison of fire", added to the reporter that it could make a difference with the drama group. In the animation society, the expenses were shared by the fans, from the dress making to the later stage of the image processing. Although there are certain bonus in winning the competition, but for most fans who can not win the prize, play Cosplay purely "burn money". "One year after school, I only need at least one thousand yuan to buy animation clothes, which makes my mother angry." Li Xiaomei, a newly graduated Anime fan, told reporters with a smile that Wang Yue also described this as a pure spiritual enjoyment that could not be entered.
in addition to burning money, playing Cosplay requires a lot of physical strength and energy. Every work, from the determination of the theme, the preparation of the prop, and then repeated rehearsal, to participate in the competition, all comic and comic members have to invest less than five months, more than one year. Wang Xiaoqing told reporters that, because of this, her "prison fire" animation agency, although established for five years, but the output is not high, only six works, respectively: "Naruto" "the dog night fork" "SD Doll" "Changan fantasy night" "the Three Kingdoms" and "the blood sucking Knight".
4 more time and money to burn the magic show magic how in
in the mind of many people, animation is a child's patent, is a small, naive symbol. But in the face of a few after 80, the reporter is thinking: how can Cosplay have such a great magic power, let a group of young people who have reached the age of marriage and marriage?
"happiness lies in doing what one likes." Wang Yue told reporters that he grew up looking at cartoons from an early age. First, he was infatuated with the characters in the cartoon. Later, he made a reality show with a lot of people, and made up many of his friends who had a lot of interest and made up for his own shortcomings. In order to make a fish scale for Coser, she can spare no effort to buy composite materials from the Internet, cut out more than 700 scales of fish separately, then paint and assemble them. This patience and perseverance sometimes can not even believe her. In the anime circle, in order to sew clothes, many girls have developed from needles to skilful needles, like the granny class needles like the thimble, almost one of them. Tang Juan told reporters that she also specially bought an electric sewing machine. "Because the use of too much, now the sewing machine's pick up is broken." Now, many skilled Coser have turned to animation costumes designers. In their view, the anime reality show is like a school, which has cultivated her character, skilled her hands, and widened her vision.
for Wang Xiao Qing, playing Cosplay is more of an experience. She told reporters that she played the animated reality show from the characters who worship anime. Though these anime characters are also idols, they are different from people like Andy Lau and Maggie Cheung. They are all fictitious, not only with beautiful appearance, but also of love, friendship and innocence. They teach people to strive for dreams, "wear the costumes of cartoon characters, as if we are the incarnations of idols." With the same spirit and temperament, we get great spiritual satisfaction from reality TV.
"real cartoon reality show is not just dressed up, but more importantly the exchange of minds." Zhang Yunfeng also agrees with Wang Xiaoqing. He believes that the animation reality show is not a "family" of a group of young children. "In a modern society with such fierce competition, everyone will bear various kinds of pressure and confusion because of their work or study, if they are at this time." Is it not a huge spiritual liberation to throw away these and pretend to be another? " (source: Shandong Commercial Daily) [url=http://news.163.com/: hbmhfcz1][/url:hbmhfcz1]
