Chapter 56
Solving the problem of card art was only the first step.
Chen Mo decided to deal with other visual resources, such as UI, background, and card special effects later. If possible he wanted to outsource it, otherwise he’d just have to do it himself.
There was still a more serious problem: finding a dependable animation company!
Replicating I Am MT shouldn’t be a problem for the animation companies in this world. However, Chen Mo wanted to make it higher quality, at least up to the level of the last few seasons of I Am MT, and it would be even better if it was able to surpass the quality of Warrior VS Dragon [1].
After all, this animated series was essentially promoting the game. If he gave up the effects of promoting in order to save money, he would be neglecting the essentials!
Chen Mo didn’t know anyone at any animation companies, either. After giving it some thought, he decided to give Zhao Zihao a call.
Therefore Chen Mo didn’t dare save any money on the animations. It didn’t matter if it was expensive, as long as the quality was there.
Chen Mo said in a serious tone, “Alright, I’ve made up my mind. Just do it at the highest quality. However, providing the character design and story should cut down the cost right?”
Guo Feng nodded, “Of course! Without the investments relating to story, character design, scenes and so on, it will slightly reduce the cost, though not by a lot. Maybe like ten percent.”
Chen Mo couldn’t help but put his palm on his forehead. The savings were really minimal. However, after some thought, he was still saving two hundred thousand cold hard cash!
Guo Feng added, “However, if you provide the scripts and character designers, you will need to work closely with our crew, in particular so the settings and shots are decided on time, and try to reduce the number of times you make changes in order to not hinder progress.”
Chen Mo nodded. “Alright. How about this: a week from now, at the end of the month, I’ll provide the character design, story, and scenes, then we’ll make the contracts.”
