1. clever angle view of the world is set
as an animated film, before talking about the script, first of all look at the world. The success of the world view determines the starting point of the story. Because of the characteristics of animation, in different films, the worldview can effectively differentiate between each other, making the work more unique and attractive at the same time. In general, the structure of the animation worldview must have two aspects. It must be magical and magical, make the audience amazed, linger in the imagined world, and sigh "wo!", and at the same time make the audience empathize and feel the story. Everything about the characters is so true and credible.
The world view of "Invincible Destruction King" was very successful, and the game concept and the animation concept were seamlessly connected. He is clever, because the game and the animation itself have many similarities, covering a lot of whimsical ideas, and the game is something familiar to the young audience group, and the audience will understand it without a boring plot. What story do you want to tell. On the basis of ingenuity, "Invincible Destruction King" saves the trouble of explaining complicated concepts, and directly advances the story into the plot narrative, which makes the rhythm of the whole film tighter and the laughter more concentrated.
In the plot of "Invincible Destruction King", there are several important worldview settings that have contributed to the success of the film:
a. When the character dies in someone else's game, it is completely dead, which adds to the otherwise relaxing game world. After all the troubles and pressure, the protagonist at the climax, Destroy Wang, prepared to sacrifice himself.
b. Kuaishou Ashiu’s hammer is actually a key prop, not only responsible for funny, but also helping to advance the story. Repairing the spacecraft, repairing your own face, repairing the car, repairing the track, trying to break the prison and the result is getting stronger, these points are both important and funny. It is a very good setting.
c. The connection between the games allows the audience to interact with the familiar game characters, through the ins and outs of the protagonist and the villain, and at the same time supports the clues of the relationship between the characters.
d. The monster setting of "Interstellar Moth" and the various scenes of the candy world successfully demonstrated the respective characteristics of the two games. The fantasy concept and plot are closely integrated, which is very natural.
2. likable persona
a successful animated film, the role is very important, the audience love the movie, love is largely character. The character setting of "Invincible Destruction King" follows the character setting pattern of general animation works.
A. The protagonist Destroy King is a "hanging silk", it is precisely because of the "stupid" and "stupid" of "hanging silk" that it can bring endless jokes to the audience, and at the same time it is extremely sympathetic, and it will be sublimated when the story climaxes. And progress, just to make the audience feel excited at the same time. The protagonist Destroy Wang's desire to be a good person is sufficiently motivated and very simple-to be a good person, you only need to get a gold medal. This kind of concrete desire makes the audience understandable, and also makes the character's behavior very clear and sufficient. Simple and clear, this is an essential element of animation, who wants to make the brain so tired when watching an animation.
b. The role setting of the supporting actors, Axiu, Star Wars Girl, and Yunni Depu are relatively modest. It is worth mentioning that in a movie, the concept of different games is successfully used to make the characters have both appearance and personality. Achieved differentiation. For example, the love episode between Ash and the Star Wars girl makes people laugh from the role alone.
c. The villain's setting is relatively good and rare. "Invincible Destruction King" did not continue the identity of the characters in the game, but made Ashiu a villain and let the story fall into a cliché. The setting of the real villain Candy King (i.e. Turbo) is simple but not thin. The simple thing is that there are not many scenes, but it is bad and thorough, with tricks, monologues, and characteristics. What is not thin is its duality. The suspense of identity, revealed at the last moment of the movie, caused an unexpected surprise. When the audience knows the ending, they will find that the background of Turbo and the behavior of Candy King are consistent and unified.
d. As for some other soy sauce characters, they are mainly to pay tribute to the game. Although they pass by, they also add a lot of fun.
3. Typical and extreme script structure
In terms of the structure of the story, "Invincible Destruction King" follows the rules of commercial movies very much, with sufficient information, fast pace, and rigorous causal logic. Compared with most animated movies, Hollywood screenwriting concepts are used more skillfully. For example, the screen structure in the concept of the script, the card positions of the middle points of the story, and the replays are all very accurate in the time code. "Invincible Destruction King" gives people an invigorating and satisfying feeling, which is largely due to its precise play curve.
The concept of the game is ingeniously combined with the story. The three major games, "Quick Hand Ash", "Hero Mission", and "Candy Sprint", actually have different story roles. "Kaishou Ashiu" can be understood as explaining the initial state of the characters, leading to the ins and outs of the protagonist of Destruction King. "Hero Mission" is a bridging event that connects the game world and the specific story. The main body of the movie is the story that takes place in "Candy Rush". The heroine Winnie Depp only appears here, and the spiritual growth of Destruction Wang is also unfolded in this part.
The approximate structure of the script is as follows:
a. Prologue: In the game of "Kai Shou Ashiu", the King of Destruction is a bad guy (character's previous love). He participated in bad guys gatherings (explaining the world view, jokes), and when he returned home, he found out that he was holding a gathering (small motivational event) and bet with others. He determined that he could be a good guy by winning a gold medal. (Initial desire, motivation) From
b: He looked for a gold medal, met a drunk mercenary in a bar, decided to change his identity (incentive event), smoothly sneaked into the game of heroic mission, made a small trouble (joker, small twists and turns) and finally won The gold medal, but it caused big trouble, with an interstellar moth crossing to the candy sprint. For this reason, the Star Queen is ready to track (introduced in the double line).
C: His gold medal was snatched by Yunni Depp (incentive event), and the interstellar moth fell into the candy swamp (foreshadowing). In the process of chasing Yun Ni Depp, he caused trouble (joking) but found that Yun Ni Depp signed up for the competition with his gold medal. Thus, it is learned that only by winning the championship can a new gold medal be won. (Relationship change) Therefore, Destruction Wang helped Yunni Depu build a new car. (Progressive relationship). I also trained at the Cola Volcano and found that the Cola Volcano is very hot (foreshadowing).
On the double line, Kuaishou Ashiu and the Star Wars sisters came to Candy Sprint and told about the tragedy of "Turbo Racing" (foreshadowing)
Turn D: Candy King finds the gold medal and persuades the destruction king to return to his own game. (The protagonist's initial desire is fulfilled) At the same time, Kuaishou Ashiu failed to confess, but he was imprisoned in a cell when he found the King of Destruction. The King of Destruction smashed Yunni Depu's new car and returned to his own game. But found that his game player went to the house empty. (Different encounter with the original desire) In mind, the King of Destruction has a new understanding of good and bad people, discovered the mystery of the game (suspense, about the king’s behavior) and decided to help Yunni Depu fulfill his wish and complete the game (desire) Change, character growth). At the same time, it was also to find Ashiu (auxiliary power). So I rescued Ash and helped Yunni Depu repair the new car.
E close: In the racing competition, Yun Ni Depp and Candy King compete. At the same time, interstellar moths flooded and rushed out of the ground. (Two lines in one). The Candy King merges with the interstellar moth, revealing that he is a "turbine" (the truth is revealed). The King of Destruction decides to sacrifice himself and destroy the moths (the character is sublimated, the game concept is used, and the coke volcano is used). In the end, Yunni Depu and the King of Destruction saved everyone together. The game is updated, it turns out that Yunne Depp is the Candy Princess.
f Ending: The King of Destruction is welcomed, and the homeless game character is taken in. The Star Queen and Kuaishou Ash are married, and Yunni Depu is happy to play. (Explain the whereabouts of the characters) The end of the film ends in a spoof of a group of game characters. (Easter eggs, corresponding with the opening of the film.)
4. Successful detailed performance and wonderful bridges
On the bridges, the whole movie is also more colorful, cleverly combining the characteristics of the game, the performance of animation, and the narrative needs of the plot. For example, the bridge segment of the heroic mission not only explained the concept of moths and laid the groundwork for the subsequent crisis, but at the same time it was also a very funny scene. This kind of performance in a unit of time, which completes the balance of the three aspects of funny, narrative, and structural connection, shows the level and precision of the creator.
The whole story of "Invincible Destruction King" has a relaxed atmosphere, but behind it is a very careful creation. For example, in the emotional sideline between Kuaishou Ashiu and Star Queen, there is a scene where the two of them fall into quicksand. The plot of Ash repairing his face with a hammer makes people laugh, and at the same time strengthens the magic. The concept of the hammer, followed by the sign of the heart and the line of love, in just one minute, the amount of information is very large. For example, the background information about the Star Wars girl appeared three times, from the initial setting of the love tragedy that allowed the audience to conceptualize the characters, the flashback when Ashiu said the most dynamic girl in the middle of the film caused a change in the plot, and the wedding at the end of the film. At that time, all the team members were aiming at the church's reference, the rhythm of the three places was very tight, and the comparison effect was also very strong.
Comedy must make people laugh. The laughter never stops. In "Invincible Destruction King", the laugh points are arranged very closely. I probably calculated it. In the 90-minute feature film, there are basically ten wonderful replays. (The audiovisual is wonderful, and the plot is advancing at the same time), and the details and small information points are basically one per minute. Such a rhythm is rare even in ordinary live-action comedy movies. What's more important is that the laughs that shine are basically derived from the character's personality or unique concept settings, rather than language and action spoofs, which is also relatively advanced in comedy.
"Invincible Destruction King" is related to the game, and the tribute to the game in the opening, ending and in the middle is also very prominent. For example, the secret book of Contra, I believe people who have played the red and white game will feel the same. At the end of the film, the scene where King of Destruction guest appeared on Street Fighter, and the movie characters represented by mosaics, made the film leave a deep impression in the hearts of the audience. A good comedy animation movie is many years later, when the audience forgets what the movie says, they can still laugh out loud.
