May Dormitory Diary Entry - Yamaguchi

Added 2022-05-15 21:01:01 +0000 UTC

Thank you for your support.

This is Tomona Yamaguchi.

I’ve so far managed to stay well and stave off any May sickness after my first Golden Week in the field.

It looks like I’ll be in training all through Summer.

Recently I’ve been practicing in-betweens for movements like walking, running, etc.

These have been very difficult and I'm getting corrections back over and over and over again despite only having a limited amount of frames to draw.

To better understand the movements listed above, I tried teaming up with some of my peers to actually go outside and record some of these movements for real, then break them down frame by frame while trying to draw them. I’ve also been observing walking scenes in TV anime and trying to replicate them. It’s a trial and error process.

The road is still long, but I’m slowly approaching the point of adequacy.

I’m striving hard every day in hopes that, by this time next year, I’ll be where I need to be.

And that concludes my diary entry for May.

お世話になっております。

山口倫奈です。

入社後初のゴールデンウィークを終え、今のところ五月病になることなく元気に研修をこなしています。

夏ごろまではずっと研修が続くそうです。

最近は歩く、走る、といった動作の中割りを練習しています。

これらがなんとも難しく、合計枚数としては数枚のことなのですが何度も何度も修正をもらってしまいます。

上記の動きを理解するために同期の子に協力してもらい、実際に会社の外に出て同じように走ったり歩いたりする様子を録画してその動画をコマ送りにしたものを見ながら描いてみたり、放送中のアニメの中で歩いているシーンを観察して真似してみたりと試行錯誤の日々です。
