1. Determine the theme. Determine the theme to be expressed and the way of expression. They are basically divided into: spoiler series, reflection series, and KUSO series. In fact, this step is just to determine a central idea and does not need to be refined too much. It is a directional indicator. 2. Select music. Choose appropriate music according to the theme and determine the production style of MAD. Pay more attention to the place in the song that resonates the loudest with you. This place is often the climax of your MAD. At the same time, pay attention to the regular rebeats in the music. These rebeat points are the key to controlling the rhythm of your MAD. For reshoots with a certain interval between them, you can do some storyboards with the same effect but different content to fill them in; for continuous reshoots with no interval between them, you can do full-frame flashing, full-frame, etc. that are used in many MAD. Vibrate, continuous highlight bitmap switching. While listening to the song, take notes on the inspiration you capture, which will be used when writing storyboard effects in the future. Don't be afraid of having too much inspiration, because in actual operation, many storyboards in the draft stage will often be discarded or modified due to lack of skills. Usually, melodious and lyrical music is suitable for aesthetic style MAD. Because the rhythm is slower, the survival period of each storyboard of this type of MAD will be longer. Therefore, the requirements for the ability to organize compositions and scenes are relatively high. If there are flaws in the images, the audience will have enough time to discover them. At the same time, only beautiful scenes and compositions, eye-catching color combinations, rich connotations and * Only catchy text can attract the audience to pay attention to the current storyboard for a relatively long time. Similarly, due to the rhythm, the aesthetic style of MAD is not suitable for full-screen flashing, full-screen vibration, polygonal screen cutting, polygonal combination, excessive electronic special effects, and excessive amounts of text. In other words, we should try our best to make the screenshots of each key frame of the storyboard into wallpapers that can be viewed independently, which places high demands on the composition ability and color sense of the producer. Music with a strong sense of rhythm is suitable for MAD with a strong sense of the times or brainwashing type. The remake of accurate music uses strong full-frame flashing, full-frame vibration, polygonal picture cutting, polygonal combination, a large number of electronic special effects and super-flow text information are the keys to this style of MAD. Moreover, the strong rhythm and flash, followed by a few seconds of loss of color and sound, and then an even stronger impact, can make people feel like they are being brainwashed. Because many scenes pass by in a flash, this style of MAD does not pay much attention to composition. Compared with the aesthetic style that pays attention to coordination, the use of colors mainly uses three colors: red, black, and white, and focuses on conflict and emphasis. Contrast, reverse color. Letting the audience follow your MAD rhythm is the best way to do it. 3. Material collection and pre-processing: Collect relevant CG and official pictures, and do preliminary character cutout, background CG layering, clarity, size, color correction, and defect repair. MAD with an aesthetic style should pay special attention to collecting landscape CGs. For rhythm MAD, you should pay attention to collecting enough plug-ins of the same type. 4. Copywriting Copywriting must focus on the theme, music, and available CG. 1. Entry point: Spoiler series: Extract the content of games or animations. Basically, the classic plot must be retained, while other secondary plots must be deleted as necessary. Reflection series: Even the sentiment series , and it is impossible to completely break away from the plot. Unlike the direct narrative of the spoiler series, the reflection series describes the classic plot from multiple perspectives. With the protagonist of the story as the first point of view, it is easier to express the producer's feelings through the character's narration or psychological activities. The best copywriting role is of course the most popular female character. Male players of Galgame are more or less indecisive and fond of fantasy, which is the key to luring them. 2. Genre of copywriting: Perhaps, directly copying the lines of the game and turning it into a narrative is the most faithful way to the original work. However, as MAD is a visual and audio mixed art work, the prose method is more suitable for setting off the atmosphere. 3. Selection of dialogue: In addition to the necessary plot description, attention should also be paid to the use of dialogue: for the aesthetic style MAD, you should choose classic dialogue that can reflect the character's personality, while for the brainwashing MAD, you should choose more characters. Dialogue or psychological activities when there are severe mood swings. 3. Steps: 1) Segment the music. Generally, the music of Short Ver's MAD is divided into intro, main melody, climax, and ending. The MAD music of Full Ver is divided into intro, main melody, climax, main melody, climax, transition, climax and ending.
At the same time, there are also methods such as climax, main melody, transition, climax, main melody, climax, and ending. Write down the general content of each section, and music that starts with a climax is most suitable for using flashback. 2) Continue to subdivide each musical segment into different storyboards. Use simple words to describe the animation content to be realized, and fill in the copywriting lines for each storyboard. If possible, try to make the content of the storyboard not only consistent with the theme, but also related to the artistic conception of the current lyrics. 3) Use words to describe the storyboard effect: the composition of key content frames (composition of layers and text layers) , position) Dynamic description (how each layer moves) Text special effects description (same as above) If there is a retake in the storyboard, and the idea has a corresponding effect, then write down the transition description (what kind of field transition effect is used) Storyboard The length is estimated to take time 5. Repeated revisions 6. Start production
