Netflix is looking for an international originals - anime director: https://jobs.netflix.com/jobs/860476

Why aren't you applying anons? Isn't your chance to be influent in the industry?

As if anyone here has even the slightest qualifications.

That would technically really be quite interesting if some anon grabbed that job and started making some original anime content that pleases both Japan and the rest of the world.

What the fuck even constitutes a "Netflix original"?

I watched my buddy going through his netflix queue the other day and several anime like Sidonia were labeled as "Netflix original" does netflix actually produce these anime? do they just fund them or what?
>>

It's for the nips. No one else has that much required experience with anime.

Yes they produce them, which in industry terms means funding them.

-Extensive background in sourcing and developing anime content
-Solid relationships in the anime creative community (writers, producers, etc.)
-Demonstrated mastery of verbal and written communication skills including the ability to cultivate internal and external relationships
-Ability to work independently and change direction frequently
-Ability to manage and process detailed information while keeping perspective on the bigger picture
-Demonstrated ability to work cross functionally
-Excellent project and time management skills
-Demonstrated love and understanding of video content in multiple international markets
-Mastery of Microsoft Word, Excel, and Powerpoint is a must

>>
>>151998655

That would mean someone that has worked in anime since 2006-2007. That's a good chunk of people, since the west has been doing stuff with anime officially since the late 80's/90's.
>>
>>151998697
Eh, Netflix would just fulfill the very same role like Warner Bros Japan or the Anime Consortium who also finance original anime.
Original anime can be a hit or a miss.

There's probably a bunch of Frenchs or Koreans who do fulfill the qualifications.

A lie counts as experience, yes. I have 20 years of industry experience, speak fluent japanese and will create the best anime every. that anime will be so great it will blow your mind, better then the japanese anime. it will be huge bigger then china and more profit than apple

Well yeah, that's why the director will have to work with producers and writers from the anime industry, who are all living in Japan. So the director will have to work with Japanese living in Japan making anime.
>>
>>151998848
It seems more like they're looking to fund anime rather than make their own, it's not like they're trying to hire a full studio's worth of talent.

>What is the future of funding anime productions, then?

>Right now, video and music companies are very important in terms of funding and they represent a high percentage for the financing of anime. But I think the future belongs to platforms like Amazon or Netflix. They're taking a chance on anime and I think they will change the thinking about how it's done. Doing their own productions for their own platforms, the trend of funding anime productions is going to change.

It's only future of anime if you like anime, not idoltrash/fujotrash
>>
>>151998888
Well, makes sense that they want to test out the waters before going full original, right?
>>
>>151998888
>fund anime rather than make their own
Isn't that what they do with their original live-action series anyway? Funding in exchange for exclusive rights.
>>
Let me show you your choices /a/:

[ ] Garbage gritty sci-fi series that tries to emulate OVAs from the 90s in the worst way possible (eq. Under the Dog)
[ ] Obvious pandering cash-in of whatever is trendy at the time (eq. insert Aniplex original here)
[ ] Jesus fuck what are you doing (eq. It's just /co/ shit)
[ ] Oh screw it let's just bring back old but popular series to finally kill them (eq. FLCL, Big O)
[ ] One in a million creative masterpiece that saves anime and drastically pulls in favor from foreigners (eq. This is what Netflix wants to believe)

[ ] Fun things are fun (eq. Japanese Wakfu Japanese Totally Spies)
>>
I don't get the feeling these things will flourish because there's little chance of it. Even among anime mainly produced within Japan, the number of anime that succeed are low. So, unless Netflix/CR/Amazon start pumping out as many anime, chances are we're not gonna get a hit anytime soon.
>>

>I don't want anyone telling me what I have to do, so I think the best way possible to avoid this is to go slowly. First you come up with the manga. Once the manga is successful enough, someone will come along willing to make the anime. That's how it works.

Yeah. Litteraly

>>151999195
What Netflix wants is however anime that their customer base wants to see.
They could easily make a questionnaire or just look at their own internal data what kind of anime their customers have so far watched.
If for example their customers were currently in a mood for watching science fiction stuff, they would probably have their director try to start an anime project that is something scifi-related.

You can't do that though. It doesn't work that way. You can't just focus group creative projects into successes. What becomes a success, initially, almost never makes a whole lot of sense before it releases. Afterwards, there's a lot of 20/20 hindsight talk about oh yea this was going to be a success because of this or that. But then you have shit that everyone expected to be a hit not be a hit. Now, this is in regards to new shit, not like the next Gundam or something. And from a creative or production point of view, all you see is western companies with a lot of cash wanting their own anime. Your investment, unlike some of these people who work off of beans everyday to make their great otaku inspired masterpiece anime, isn't always likely to attract the greatest talent. Not to mention who knows what Amazon/western viewers want. They like RWBY. And there's a reason for that. Cause it was made by a western who like Anime. Not by a Japanese who like Anime.

Netflix has decided to become a major producer of content not just a distribution service.

They have plenty of original shows now. And they've produced the most expensive TV series ever made which was a 10 episode series costing 100 million dollars to produce.

It makes sense since if they're going to have trouble with companies licences across borders and what not. Why not make their own and dictate their own terms.

Extensive background just means "this isn't my first rodeo and I know what I'm doing" and I think "developing anime content" is pretty clear. It means being on the production side, not the distributor side. In other words your work had to help CREATE anime, rather than just being part of the marketing and distributing process, which admittedly is very important and is fully half of what the industry does.

There are plenty of production roles other than director, though. I mean, I'm thinking of that frog who did Code Lyoko, who now does asset design and stuff for Satelight. He has "experience in creating anime content," but he's never directed one. If he's qualified then that sucks, because he's a faggot with bad ideas.

Yeah that's the point. They're making it an open call to anyone in the industry who'd like to direct. They don't want some total amateur whose never worked on anime before though, just somebody on the creative team.

The problem with raising up a new director from the rank and file of the creative team though is getting people to sign on. Hence why they want somebody well connected, so they don't have to work really hard at convincing people to join in to work for their rookie director.

Did you not even read the qualifications they're looking for? They need A) lots of connections in the anime industry and B) work experience in developing anime content. The only westerners who have both these have lived in Japan for years.

You're like 40 years too late for that. And Netflix doesn't strike me as being stupid enough to meddle with the production once it's under way. The whole point of recruiting a skilled and experienced creative team is to let them produce a quality show for you, that you can then market and sell. This is basically how anime originals work in Japan already, Netflix just wants in on the action.

Anon, they made this move literally at the same time they made their expansion into Japan. It's international, but you're nuts if you think they're ignoring Japan here.

Anyway, as >>152001747 says, your argument is completely irrelevant. Experience and connections in the anime industry completely rules out anyone except nips and expats.
>>
>>152001803
It's a kickstarter project, meaning they have no real deadline because they're not answerable to a board of directors.

You are a dumb motherfucker. If anything Japanese workplaces force their employees to socialize and network.

Considering Japan has an aging population I'd say it's pretty relevant. The western-loving government obviously tries to suppress the anti-migrant and anti-korean sentiments in the public, but they're still there. I remember last year there were actually anti-migrant protests in Tokyo, with people shouting KOREANS GO HOME and so forth.

This is all well and good but honestly as soon as Netflix begins going through the motions and releasing it it'll probably be completely ignored here or in the East. Netflix makes originals all the time, and if they choose to attempt to make an "anime" or at least an Eastern influenced animated project who cares? I understand that Netflix and Amazon are projected to become the new spearheads but does that mean they'll suddenly start closing Japanese studios? If anything it's just a new thing to ignore.
>>
>>152002783
>I understand that Netflix and Amazon are projected to become the new spearheads
I don't really get why people think this. The main argument seems to be "Netflix's live action shows have higher budgets than anime!" as though that reflects anything.

Will you watch sub or dub when Netflix hires actually good voice actors?

>>152002914
both

I will also kek loudly when netflix promises users funimation will never be involved with a netflix project

you think Netflix or Amazon could ever pump out series as fast and with as tight a budget as a Japanese studio?

no chance lmao
>>
>>152002783
>they'll suddenly start closing Japanese studios?
No they will be employing Japanese studios to make anime. That's why they want a director with connections in the anime industry.
>>
>>152002783
They are doing it because some of the anime they took were a success in their platform.

Netflix original.

Japanese are intimidated by foreign companies. Few Japanese have passable English skills. It's a real problem. For ambitious employees it means their advancement has a ceiling created by language barrier. They can never leave the branch office as long as they have poor English skills, they can never be a home office CEO. So they'd rather stay in Japan where they can actually climb the ladder.
>>
>>152003093
Maybe hollywood but probably more TV actors. I imagine if they want their originals to succeed in the west they know the value of quality English voice acting to appeal to the majority who may just be browsing Netflix. They definitely have the wallet to do it so it'll be interesting to see the production quality.

They helped produced Kuromukuro, they can work with current japanese writers to produce one. Hopefully they adapt available literary classics since I think anime is a great medium to use for it since you can pretty much go crazy with it for the set piece.

You're pretty deluded if you think good voice actors would change all the inherent flaws dubs have. Burger dubs for burger cartoons only.
