Chapter 156: Evaluating the Animations

Monday, November 23th

Theo woke up feeling excited about the start of a new week.

After he did his morning workout, he had breakfast with Aurora before she went to her school.

Theo bade farewell to her as he got into the internal elevator, and she got into the external elevator of the house.

He was going to the garage to pick up his car to go to the Tokyo Studios.

Theo had a lot of work to do there.

A while later, he parked his car in the studio's parking area.

He went directly to Ryoko's office, he assumed that she already arrived.

And he was right because when he entered the office, the blue-haired girl was already there.

"Good morning, Ryoko!" Theo greeted her with a smile.

"Good morning, boss!" Ryoko replied as she saw Theo entering the room.

"Ready for another day of evaluations?" Theo asked her as he sat down on the chair in front of her.

pᴀɴdᴀ "Super ready! I slept early last night, so I am full of energy!" Ryoko replied with a silly smile.

Theo laughed when he saw that.

"Okay then. I'm counting on you then because I went to bed super late last night." Theo replied with a wry smile.

After he got home from the restaurant last night, he went to the recording studio to keep editing the second song of the album.

He had to start doing that because he had so many things to do that if he wanted to finish everything when he wanted, he had to start utilizing all time of the day for work.

But even though he was a little sleepy, it was not something that could affect him with his enhanced physic.

And he was happy that was making progress in his album, so he did it without complaining.

Ryoko and Theo talked a little more before they got started judging the rest of the teams that they didn't evaluate the day before.

Both were focused as they started.

They wanted to find any people who were abusive like they found the day before.

And they were also looking for talented people.

"Look, Team 10 has your classmate that you told me about." Theo said as he looked at Team 10's details.

"Really?" Ryoko asked in surprise.

She had already seen some classmates in some teams before, and they did a great job.

Ryoko looked at the detail, and Brianna was indeed on this team.

"I remember you said she was a great color designer? If their animation presents great colors we can put her on the fourth phase." Theo said as he motioned to play Team 10's animation.

Ryoko nodded and looked at the screen waiting for the animation to start.

Even though Brianna was one of Ryoko's close friends.

Ryoko would not be partial when she judged her.

When all it is said and done, Ryoko was the boss of a big studio now and she had to behave like it.

She just hoped that her friend managed to do a good job.

The animation started with a closeup of a bee pollinating a pink flower.

Following that the 'camera' zoomed out of the bee, and the visual of a lush forest could be seen.

It seemed like a fantastical forest because all types of animals could be seen cohabiting without any problems.

All types of colors could be seen, but these colors were placed in a way that they did not seem messy.

Instead, they looked like they supported each other to make the scene magical.

The one minute of the animation was the scenes of this forest.

And when the video ended Theo exclaimed, "Wow! Your friend is a genius!"

He was indeed a little shocked by this animation.

Theo could feel this animation had a great cohesion, the story was simple, and the characters were just some animals.

But even though it was just some forest scenes, this animation was the best they saw so far!

Ryoko had a proud smile when she heard Theo saying that.

They proceeded to watch the team's footage.

When they started watching, they understood why the animation was so good.

Brianna got the leader position of the team!

And with her talent in color design, she was able to coordinate the whole team to produce an animation that explored her talent.

Theo was happy when he saw this team.

Not only because of Brianna's talent but also because he saw the other teammates working together to produce something good.

There were no people with shady minds in this group, and that's why they managed to produce the animation that impressed him.

"Let's put Brianna on the fourth phase's test for the color designer position." Theo said after they finished watching the footage.

"I agree." Ryoko replied with a proud face.

"Which ones of them should get the other positions?" Theo asked.

"How about these three to be keyframe animators? They managed to follow all Brianna's instructions, and without them, Brianna would not be able to realize her ideas." Ryoko said as he pointed at three members of Team 10.

"I agree. I also think these two would be the perfect fit for the background design department. They did a great job designing the background forest." Theo said as he pointed at another two people.

Theo and Ryoko discussed the rest of Team 10, and by the end, all members received an evaluation.

They continued evaluating the rest of the teams after they finished that.

A while later, they arrived at Team 19 animation.

The video started with a shot of smoke coming out of a black scaled nostril.

Multiple shots of a big creature in the middle of a volcano started rolling.

When the suspense was at max, the video showed the dragon playing catch with a little girl.

Theo and Ryoko laughed when they saw that.

And when the animation ended, they were pleased with it.

"What a great story! The background design is beautifully done too." Theo commented.

"I think so too. And if the animation had sound effects, the quality of this piece would get a great leap." Ryoko said with a thoughtful face.

It was important to notice that none of the 35 teams' animations had sound effects.

After all, they barely were able to finish without sound effects. Imagine if they had to do that.

Theo and Ryoko proceeded to watch this team's footage.

And by the end of it, they were pleased with this team's work.

"I think we put this Urata as a keyframe supervisor. This Bruno can go to the fourth phase of the background design department. And this Kyra can go to the storyboard department." Ryoko said her evaluation.

"I agree. How about the others?" Theo said.

They continued evaluating the teams throughout the day.

Sometimes they found people that forgot they were being watched, they were caught doing something they shouldn't.

Theo and Ryoko eliminated some of them, but some of them had so atrocious behaviors that Theo forbade them from even entering the building.

But these people were rare.

Most people were normal and just wanted to work in their dream job.

They wanted to grab this chance to soar.

And Theo and Ryoko found great talents in these teams.

For example, the team that chose to animate a fight scene between characters coming out of a page.

Theo and Ryoko had beaming eyes when they saw their animation.

This team had a great talent for animating fighting scenes!

And they did that with a limited time, Theo and Ryoko imagined if they had more time.

Theo already could imagine these people helping him animate the epic fight scenes of Naruto.

Another team that impressed them was the one that chose to do a slice-of-life of the Tokyo Studios.

Theo loved seeing his studio being animated, and they did such a great job!

Some people said that slice-of-life was a way of life.

To know the ins and outs of animating a slice of life was a talent too.

Theo was ecstatic when he saw so many talented people.

By the end of the afternoon, they managed to evaluate all 35 teams.

Theo and Ryoko were tired of watching and evaluating so many things all day, but they were happy.

The studio had a bright future with these people coming in.

Theo couldn't wait to put these people to work on his animes!
