    今から35年前、「ファイナルファンタジー」シリーズが生まれる目前に、ゲーム業界に初めて足を踏み入れたアーティストの天野喜孝と新卒でスクウェアに入社したイラスレーターの渋谷員子によるコラボレーションが生まれました。
    巨匠の作品をドット絵という領域に翻訳する渋谷さんと、一心不乱に作品を生み出し続ける天野さんに、ファイナルファンタジーの初期を振り返っていただきつつ、お二人のコラボレーションの最高峰となった『ファイナルファンタジーVI』について語っていただきました。
    -
    35 years ago, at the dawn of the Final Fantasy series, a collaboration was born between artist Yoshitaka Amano, taking his first steps in the game industry and striving illustrator Kazuko Shibuya, who had just entered Square as a new grad.
    She had the daunting task of translating Amano's work into pixels, while he kept creating some of the series' most iconic character designs. The two of them reminisced on the early days, up until the pinnacle of their craft with Final Fantasy VI.

    Thanks for shedding a light on Kazuko Shibuya's contributions to Final Fantasy. I only recently found out about how much she shaped the series. And while I've always been a fan of Amano, I wish I learned about Shibuya earlier and hope more fans start seeing her as one of the "forefathers" of Final Fantasy.

    Oh wow! That was so fabulous! Thank you! I've been illustrating professionally for 20 years and I was becoming jaded, but discovering Amano's process a bit over a decade ago really pushed me and motivated me again. Every time I listen to him I am reminded why I do this job, I feel much the same about realism.

    7:58 The fact that he still has all these pieces, especially that NP strategy guide cover, almost brings a tear to my eye. Six is my favorite, by a long shot, and Kefka's my favorite villain too (he's a style icon and I won't have anyone tell me otherwise); hearing Shibuya and Amano reminisce fondly about their work together, in particular on something that means so much to me, warms my heart like nothing else. Wonderfully produced documentary! Looks like I found a new channel to subscribe to.

    Amazing. Shibuya and Amano have been massive inpirations to me ever since childhood. I had never known such beautiful art to grace a game series, and when I exposed to Amano for the first time, I couldn't believe what I was witnessing. My child brain simply said "whoa, this is like real art". Shibuya's beautiful rendition of pixel art was unmatched in my eyes as well, and the combination of Amano/Shibuya felt like a step above anything in the medium for games. It still feels like that today, too.
    I particularly enjoyed your focus on Final Fantasy VI. That remains as my favorite Final Fantasy, 27 years later. It's still so, so very beautiful to me, thanks to the amazing talent behind Amano and Shibuya.
    Thank you for this. :]

    Very nice. I love seeing how you juxtaposed both their perspectives on the same or similar events. Their perspectives on their work are also illuminating, even if I don't think I feel the same way (for example, how Amano chooses to simply forget a picture once it's in the past for him), it does give insight into why each of their works are the way they are. Thanks for making and posting this!

    • @cutscenes1758
      @cutscenes1758  3 года назад +5

      Thank you! As for Amano, he most likely doesn't "choose" to forget a picture after finishing it, but his mindset just directs him towards the next piece. However, he told us off-camera that he rarely remembers character names but remembers them visually, so it strikes us that he doesn't really "forget" about the visual identity of the characters he draws.

    there are also interviews with the developers of ff6 that say that the sprites were first and Amano based his art on that.
    "incidentally, there are differences in the details between the character drawings that Yoshitaka Amano did for FFVI and the ones appearing in the game, but why is that?
    (Sakaguchi) That’s because Mr. Amano was working on those at the same time we were working on the game.
    (Shibuya) Even now I still often get asked “Is Terra’s hair blond or green?”. If we’d gone by Mr. Amano’s designs, just about all of the characters would have blond hair, and it would be harder to distinguish between them. And having them all be blond would dilute their distinctive traits as well. So I had control over the character colors on-screen while Mr. Amano was free to draw them however he liked.
    Also, did Amano’s illustrations or Ms. Shibuya’s pixel art come first?
    (Sakaguchi) Shibuya’s came first in just about every case."
