According to this article, Gainax is launching a series of lectures on their website. This could be potentially interesting.

Made a frontpage post about it. http://www.evageeks.org/2010/08/gainax-online-anime-lecture-series-tsurumaki/

Would be cool if some of the more interesting sections of the transcript got translated.

I've spent a lot of time reading about storyboarding and layouts in American animation, so seeing the Japanese take on storyboarding should be interesting.

This is going to be a series, right? Are these recordings of Gainax's standard training for its employees, or done specially for gainax-anime-lecture?

Hope someone translates this. Google Translate makes a hash of a lot of it; eg.

とても個人的な感覚なので、他の人はそれぞれ別の基準を持っているのかもしれません。 Feeling so very personal, others may have different criteria for each. 思いのほかむずかしいことなんです。 They are actually surprisingly difficult. 僕も、よくわかっていませんし、庵野さんも以前「シーンとして演出できる演出家は少ない」と言ってました。 Too, and not well known, even before Mr. Anno, "as a scene director to director is less, "said he.


I mean what the heck.
