"Actually, "Ding Food" also has such a plot, but the effect is not very good." Xi Muhan said tangledly.

Since they draw food comics, of course, they also need to refer to high-quality works of the same type. In this respect, the 11th arrondissement does a better job and has some well-known food comics.

In these comics, a similar technique was used, and they tried to use it once, but the reader did not approve of it.

Yan Fei nodded, she also had an impression of that time.

"I remember it was a tofu dish." Yan Fei asked.

"yes. It is in the place where "Ding Shi" is relatively high. Xi Muhan explained

After the two of them said this, Shen Xin also remembered the situation at that time, he remembered that the dish made by the protagonist was "fish head tofu soup", and he changed it to another fish head and shiitake mushrooms to cook the dish.

"I think...... The responsibility for your failure lies not in the method, but in the two of you. ”

Shen Xin doesn't know how to cook, and he can't talk about it.

Xi Muhan listened to Shen Xin's words and pouted dissatisfiedly, Lu Ning didn't make a sound, but the depression in his heart was also written on his face.

Shen Xin sighed and said, "This is really your problem. First of all, the choice of ingredients is wrong. What is the taste of tofu and fish head, everyone is familiar with it, you just draw the flowers, and the reader can't imagine that the taste will be greatly improved if you change the fish head. And don't lower the IQ of the judges and teachers, they haven't eaten anything? As a result, eating a fish head, making a fuss, what will the reader think of them?

"So, you have to start with things that the judges can't see, like using a spice that goes well with the ingredients, or applying a layer of sauce to the surface of the ingredients...... All of this can surprise the reader.

"In addition, when talking about the cooking process, there are two scenarios, and what the audience or the judges see is something that the reader takes for granted, even if they haven't seen it, they will think that it is okay to do so. In addition, in part, the protagonist wants to tell the judges about the principle, which seems to be the communication between the protagonist and the judges, but in fact, it tells the reader that the protagonist has put a lot of thought into this dish. One change is not enough, and it is better to have four or five places in a dish. ”

When Xi Muhan heard this, his brows furrowed and his expression was depressed.

There are four or five obvious changes in a dish, and the principle is still to be explained? Well, I guess there's botany and chemistry involved......

This requires her to have a clear understanding of the characteristics of each ingredient and the reasons for the increased taste of the dish after recipe changes.

That is to say, there must be theoretical support.

Easier said than done.

Xi Muhan thoughtfully lifted his cheeks.

"Be sure to let the protagonist use skills that most readers can't think of, and finally use these content to turn defeat into victory, which is cool. Next, it's Lu Ning's problem......"

Shen Xin took a deep breath and paused slightly, and Lu Ning's heart immediately tensed.

"Your storyboard still can't express the emotions of the story to the fullest. There are places where emotions need to be accumulated, and there are places where emotions need to be exploded, depending on the situation. When a character needs to be out of line and when it needs to be overlapped, there must also be a clear understanding. It's no longer enough for you to be able to use storyboards, you're now in the position of a pillar cartoonist, and you need to be more strict with yourself. ”

Shen Xin said, stood up, then took out a copy of "Comic Future" and flipped to "Ding Shi".

This is about the chefs entering the arena one by one, the host is introducing the topic of the competition, and the readers in the stands around it have a heated discussion.

After Shen Xin read it quickly, he closed the magazine, picked up a pencil, quickly drew five pages of name on the white paper, and handed it to Lu Ning.

"The nominative case of each page is the focus of the whole page of the comic, and when the reader sees this page, he will consciously move his eyes to this one cell. Whether or not this page can attract the reader's attention depends largely on the nominative case of this page. For another example, some trapezoidal compartments will put pressure on the reader's vision, and it is necessary to know when to use it appropriately. I'm sure you know these storyboard techniques, but the key is to use them to bring out the charm of the story. ”

Lu Ning frowned sadly and looked down at the name in his hand.

Grids, compositions, and storyboards, these are all the use of comic language, Shen Xin's words are more detailed, and she also heard the meaning of the strings - she must improve in the use of comic language, otherwise, it may be as Shen Xin said, it will be difficult for her to surpass "Ding Shi" in the future.

Shen Xin said a lot today.

At first, Xi Muhan and Lu Ning were still a little unconvinced, after all, the two of them were already very famous creators in the industry, but after Shen Xin said this, they thought about it.

And Lu Ning's understanding of Shen Xin's words is even more profound.

These words are not profound, don't talk about her, the textbooks on the market with a little level will be involved, but reading the textbooks and integrating them are completely two different things.

Even she can say some truths, but when it comes to actual operation, it's not the same thing.

What Shen Xin said to him was actually telling her that the expressiveness of "Ding Shi" in storyboards could continue to be strengthened, and at the same time, 5 pages of name were drawn, which allowed her to compare with the comics.

If she can understand something from these names, in terms of comics, it is estimated that it will go up a notch.

"By the way, Lu Ning, I have a very important word to remind you." Shen Xin saw Lu Ning holding the name he drawn, like a treasure, he couldn't help it, so he reminded him again.

"Huh?" Lu Ning looked at Shen Xin with a confused expression.

"The pages I drew are just examples, and if you give the same original work to different cartoonists, you will draw different storyboards. My understanding of this plot was drawn on paper, and I had these five pages of name. What you want to say may not be the same as mine. Perhaps, your understanding will be better in the future. Don't get bogged down. Shen Xin admonished.

"I see." Lu Ning nodded hurriedly, "Thank you, Mr. Shen, I seem to have some understanding of drawing comics." ”

"If only I could help you." Shen Xin breathed a sigh of relief, and his eyes were on Xi Muhan again, "Xiaohan, your task is much heavier than Lu Ning, the story is the root of the comics, and the basic points of "Ding Shi" are in your hands." ”

Shen Xin really can't help with food, and his understanding of this kind of comics is still stuck in a few comics he has read in District 11.

"I see." Xi Muhan took a deep breath and nodded heavily.

Shen Xin has a long time to tell the plot, so she has to take time to sort out this afternoon's conversation.

The idea may be clearer, but it will also be more difficult to create.

Then again, the works that creators rack their brains to create may be more appealing to readers.

Thinking about it like this, Xi Muhan is full of energy.

She will have to write a script for Shen Xin in the future, so she must seize every opportunity to improve her strength.

Seeing the two of them go downstairs, Yan Fei also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's not bad for you to be a teacher." ”

"I can't, I'll mislead people's children." Shen Xin shook his head, "If it weren't for Xiao Han's work, I wouldn't have said so much." I also want her creative level to improve quickly. ”

Yan Fei's eyebrows raised, Shen Xin's words were true, if he were someone else, he might not be able to spare such a long time.

"By the way, Mr. Shen, the final volume of "DN" is about to be released, and the first edition of the single book is two million copies."

Shen Xin rubbed his nose.

2 million copies...... I don't know what kind of results "DN" can have, but I have some expectations.

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
