Chapter 4:Learning Production
Chapter 4 part 1
The submission of the plan went by without a hitch.
The go signal from the teacher was immediately given so full-scale production work began to move ahead.\nFirst on the list of things is of course, the script and the storyboard.\nBoth Tsurayuki and Shinoaki began in earnest on their respective works.\nAnd even though I was not used to it, I continued to write the production manuscript while working with everyone.
1 month has passed...
I was in front of the script and storyboard I got from Tsurayuki and Shinoaki respectively. \nDisgruntled, I let out a sigh.
"It’s impossible. It doesn’t fit no matter what I try…”
The finished screenplay from Tsurayuki was a masterpiece. The subject of the film is a girl from an unnamed countryside. It starts with a shot of her when she was still in elementary school, then transitions to noon when she gets on train at the nearest station. The next scene begins when the train returns to the platform and a girl gets out wearing a sailor suit As a side note he asks to make sure the girl has the same ornament to signify it’s the same person. The story ends with a transition again but with the sunset moving forward to the deep night and simultaneously having the woman turn older, getting a cane as she leaves the train station. The lines with the station attendant also leaves a deep impression and as a story was done very well.
Meanwhile, Shinoaki’s storyboard is also coming along smoothly.
The contents of the lesson learned recently in class, Cutting on Action and Axis of action among other things, is also being utilized well. There are no gaps in the contents of the cut. But…
“It just takes way too long.”
Clearly with this much content 3 minutes isn’t enough.\nIn the script written by Tsurayuki, the dialogue is just too wordy. Clearly the sense of a time limit was lost on it.
Even if Shinoaki is good, basing things on the original volume of the screenplay…\nIt’s a really unreasonable order for her to adjust the storyboard to the time constraints.\nIt’s difficult to adjust just because the original content is just too good, it would just feel unsatisfying to do so. If we were to place an order of importance then I guess Tsurayuki’s script takes the top spot.
“I have to cut the time… but do I really have a say in it?”
In the face of true talent, do I really have the qualifications to do that?
It was a common occurrence back at my old workplace.\nThose with talent would be brought down by those without and also by the ones without forethought. No matter how many things you do right, it would only be slowly chipped away one after the other.\nIf this goes on we might be mimicking that same position.
“I can’t just leave things like this.”
This weight on my shoulders is too much for me to bear but,
