When the film "The Great Guardian" was filmed, due to financial difficulties, the initial team was only four people.

For various reasons, China's film animation has been developing slowly. Until 20 14, even if the box office of the animated film "100,000 Cold Jokes" exceeded 100 million, the animation industry was still facing various difficulties. The director of the film "The Great Guardian" didn't expect that when he first started to create "The Great Guardian", the initial team was only four people. It also reveals the sadness of animated film shooting.

No, Versace was first known in 2004, because a set of Flash animated short films "Blackbird" lasted less than half an hour. At that time, he was also called "nothing to do". Many people were attracted by Blackbird's unique temperament, but at that time, Busifan had not really entered the animation industry, and animation was just his hobby after working in the telecommunications bureau at night.

Four years later, Bu Xifan resigned and came to Hangzhou to really enter the animation industry. At this time, he found that animation was far from what he understood. "I didn't know until the animation circle that the animation at that time was exactly the same as the previous comic environment. It's really hard. Almost all original creators are asking a question: How should animation make money? "

In the following six years, Bufansi successively created animated short films such as "Millet Forest" and "Mr. Miao", among which there are many similar elements such as Chinese style, martial arts, teenagers and foreign countries. On the one hand, it comes from my childhood and hometown experience. "The rural landscape, strange land dolls and simple art houses left a deep impression on me. I am very comfortable with the scenery when painting the background mirror, because I am too familiar with it, and the scenery is in my mind. "

Now, the great protector has finally been released, and the return of the Great Sage two years ago has also opened a hole in the dawn of the country.

The director said that the original inspiration of The Great Protector came from a simple clay doll pinched by a colleague. A clay doll has only a head and a body. It looks like a human being, but it has no vitality. This feeling makes me very uncomfortable. This is the prototype of Peanut Man. Later, I began to improve the story according to this idea: the setting of the great protector is the observer; The prince should have been born. He looks like xu teacher because everyone in our studio appreciates xu teacher and likes his works. At that time, our art director Xiao Yueban was ill. When he was seriously ill, he chose to express the feeling of "pain, very pain" with strong colors.

I hope China animation can rise and go further and further.
