Chapter 189

There are many complex shooting methods, such as long shot, stretch shot, slow shot, overhead shot and so on. Different shooting methods can show completely different artistic conception. The same is true for comic strips. For example, when designing a battle scene, the enemy kicks the protagonist. The comic strip artist needs to consider the posture of the protagonist, the shooting (drawing) angle, the background, the special effects, the physical feedback of the wall when hitting the wall, and the reaction of the audience.

In order to make the film count of Monte Cristo, Harvey studied the photographic knowledge needed for making the film, which is of great help to Harvey's drawing of comic strips. The sub mirror does not require the painter to be good. It is just like a draft. It only needs to draw the general scene, the role, the dialogue, the plot and so on.

In fact, there is no big difference between comic strips and comics in essence. Comic culture is one of the most representative cultures on the earth in the name of rising sun. In the form of comics, Harvey really likes Riman more than Meiman. Harvey found a guide book to create comics, read it slowly, and evaluated whether these creative skills were suitable for the world.

There is a great difference between Riman and Meiman, not to mention the world where the comic industry has not yet been born.

After reading more than a dozen similar books, Harvey has almost got the bottom of his mind. In order to provide a reference for painting and make painting more convenient, Harvey plans to start from his own field and create a novel version of ice and snow. The story of the film has only one story unit, and it doesn't take much time to write it in the form of a novel.

Harvey spent more than an hour listing the detailed outline of the novel, and then spent the whole day using sketching to create a novel with about 300000 words. The process of creating a novel is equivalent to previewing. Each plot will go through in Harvey's brain, turning into a movie like lens, setting up every scene change and character dialogue.

Before turning the novel into a sketch of a comic strip, Harvey calls William of the Cromwell chamber of Commerce for information about professional painters.

In this era, professional painters are just upper class. They are comparable to novelists and musicians. Famous painters spend a few months to create an oil painting. If they sell it to nobles or businessmen at a high price, they can earn several years' living expenses. In order to show their artistic taste, buyers usually hold a dinner party and invite celebrities to enjoy the painting together, The banquet held on the ground of appreciating artworks has thus become a more commonly used social form.

Most of the artists who are not well-known lead a very hard life, and their works are ignored. Except for a few who are famous after death, most of them can be used as furnace fuel.

Nowadays, the most popular is oil painting. For the time being, there are not so many chaotic factions in modern times. Those things that seem to be graffiti with paint can't be on the stage at all. It is only a hundred years since sketch was born. Although it develops rapidly, it still can't be put on the stage. Nobles or businessmen will hang oil paintings in the hall, but they certainly won't show it, because people can't see the so-called artistry from sketch.

On the phone, William's humble voice said, "Mr. Harvey needs to find some professional painters who are good at sketching, right? In this case, let me arrange for you. Cromwell chamber of Commerce has cooperated with many famous painters. "

Harvey groaned under his chin and said politely, "thank you for your kindness, but if I can, I'd like to try my best to choose from my own perspective."

The artist's technique is not a problem, the problem is whether it can fit Shirley's works. Harvey, as the person who guides Shirley's creation, knows more about what kind of painter Shirley or "strange fate of ice and snow" needs.

On the other side of the phone, William suggested, "I suggest you go to Rodney street. There are many professional studios there. They are the main activity places for professional painters in the city. Many paintings of our Cromwell chamber of commerce are ordered from there."

"Is there another place like this in Elroy? I'll go and have a look now. "

Hang up the phone, Harvey hurried out to find a carriage, said Rodney street, the groom also nodded to know the address.

Professional painter is one of the few professions in the world that can cross class. Even if a civilian can get along well with his painting skills, he will be respected. Therefore, professional painter is one of the professions that many civilians most look forward to. In such an environment, a large number of professional painters are born. They set up studios in fixed areas and accept the entrustment. On the other hand, the nature of the studio is similar to that of the studio. In order to reduce the workload, painters usually accept apprentices to complete the simple but tedious work. In bad places, apprentices are free labor.

For example, when painting murals, most of the apprentices need to pre process the drawing board of the murals, polish the stone drawing board smooth, and repeatedly lay a layer of colloidal material, so that the pigment with eggs as the blending agent can be retained for a long time.

It took Harvey more than half an hour to get to Rodney street, which William said was once again called the art street in Elroy. Almost all studios and Guilds related to art are set up here. The street is not spacious. It is not too much to describe it as an alley. On both sides are some ancient style buildings piled up with stones. It seems that they have a long history. When pedestrians pass by, they are scared and afraid that the stone wall will suddenly collapse.

It is obvious that artists of this era have no concept of road occupation. On both sides of the road are full of painters who paint in the open air. Drawing boards are randomly placed on both sides of the street for passers-by to see. Each painter has bottles and cans at his feet. From the bottle mouth, different colors of paint appear to be the paint bottles, In addition to the studio, there are also workshops for carving stone and making pottery pots.

In the middle of the street, there is just a space for a carriage to pass. People are busy inside and outside. They carry paint cans, transport stone carvings, or pass by cautiously with drawing boards. It is clear that many people keep quiet subtly, and the sound of chiseling stones can be heard clearly.

"It's fair and aboveboard to paint in the street. It's also likely to show the goods." As he passed by, Harvey glanced at the paintings on both sides and whispered to himself that most of them were oil paintings with different styles, but they were not inferior to modern oil paintings at all.

Harvey has been wandering for a long time, but he still can't find a satisfactory work. Just when he is a little impatient, the sound of disturbance comes from not far away, and some painters who are painting stop their work to watch.

"It's a common disease of all mankind to watch the crowd." Harvey chuckled to himself, interested in following and seeing what happened.
