Based off the info I've gained from various
websites (Taro, etc..), as well as the ever-
growing genga/douga (as well as cel) collection I
seem to be accumulating, this piece as well as
the piece you listed as a 'layout douga' are both
gengas (AKA pencil sketches,rough pencil
sketches, all the same--the term genga is a
little generic). Dougas are pencil sketches used
_directly_ to make/paint the cels (the
blueprints). Any other sketches are considered
gengas of different types (ones on yellow--and
thinner-paper are the correction sheets,etc).
The Gengas are done by the key animators, and
they seem to do between 5-15 (including the
correction sheets) for a 3 to 8 second sequence,
drawing several points in the scene. The
inbetweeners are the ones who use the genga set
as a model to draw all the douga for the entire
scene, filling in the shots between the genga
drawings. Those drawings are the blueprints for
the cels, and usually come with them.
Genga are technically much, much rarer than
douga/cels, but since they don't look colorful
and pretty (and weren't photographed for the
actual anime), they're not as sought after. I
like them because they show something about the
actual production (EX: the key animators were
drawing Misato (in Eva) a bit fatter than she
should have been, and they didn't draw Asuka's
bust big enough--Correction sheets for both) and
they're cheaper than the cels--but you usually
have to pay for the entire set.
Sorry for the length, hope the info helps. |
