Simka's dad. "Fixies" - the story of the creation of little people

Hello.

We all have our own interests, we all follow the latest news. Many people watch cartoons. Not only children, but already quite adults. It’s clear that we don’t want to admit it, but we can’t escape the truth. Let's consider one popular cartoon that has very impressive ratings, is extremely famous and is very much in demand by the audience.

Three seasons were filmed, while the series contained thirty-six episodes. Oddly enough, the cartoon is completely Russian. Nowadays, a game that was created based on the plot is actively spreading, and the main characters, of course, are the main characters of the sensational cartoon. A couple of years ago the first episode was released, and it immediately overtook the high ratings of Masha and the Bear. Of course, every kid knows about such a creation, but adults too. The creator was Eduard Uspensky, in the distant year seventy-four, he published the fairy tale “Guarantee Men”. What did you think about when you wrote the first story? The characters were tiny people who repaired everything in different subjects within the warranty period. When the item expired, the creatures were sent to their factory, which produces various types of products. Naturally, people know nothing about such creatures. The fairy tale had its own success, and even a sequel was written. And at that time the story was received with a bang, and both children and adults liked it in ours, so they started filming it.

Fixies were created based on a fairy tale written in the year seventy-four. But the names were changed and the plot was also expanded. It turned out that the little repairmen have a whole universe in which they live. But the main characters were the family, there’s a whole set there. Dad, mom and two children, there are also grandfathers in the family. Children are friends with peers and play. But later one child learns about these creatures; it is in his house that he lives this family. Of course he will keep this secret, and naturally interact with them. The secrets of the little weirdos are also known to the child, of course there is one adult who knows about the fixies. Life small heroes looks like life ordinary people. The same worries, there are problems, only they don’t eat food, they feed on the energy they get from mushrooms. But also given energy has differences from each other. The energy that comes from cutlery will be more useful; it helps the young body grow and develop better. But the most delicious will be the computer one.

But let's look at the characters themselves. Here the main performers are, of course, children, there are two of them, as already written above. A girl, she is about ten years old, a boy who is about five years old. The girl's name is Simka and the boy's name is Nolik. They are the main ones, but there are several more active ones, we will also consider them, as well as the people who play their roles.

Simka can be seen in an orange suit, she is smart and quite resourceful. She wants to be the best in everything and is a great student. He never refuses help, gives advice and actively helps. You can please interesting information, to tell something new, since she is very well read, both her younger brother and his friend DimDimych listen to her with pleasure.

Nolik. Of blue color little boy. He constantly has some ideas and thoughts in his head. But he is not smart enough, a little stupid, and often gets into trouble. But the boy is quite kind, and it was he who first began to communicate with people, although this is prohibited among them. The kid broke the rule and found himself a new friend.

There are other children. They participate in events but indirectly. They are secondary.

Verta. A very narcissistic, typical girl who already wants to look good and beautiful. And in fact, she is considered as such. Wears a green suit.

Feyer. Bright scarlet suit. This guy is a leader, he is brave, cheerful, wants to know everything and constantly participate in something.

Ygr. Purple prefers to wear glasses. Smart, such a bat.

Spool. This is Simka's friend. Tall girl in a yellow suit. Kind, good and sweet. Also, she is always ready to help.

Adults.

And now we are adults. These are Rodaki and Grandfather.

Papus. This is the father of the family. With a beard and green clothes. I wanted to fly into space, but it didn’t work out.

Masya. This is the mother, as you may have guessed. Purple clothes, works in the kitchen stuff industry, likes cleanliness. In general, a typical mother of the family.

Grandfather. Well, they simply designated grandfather. Brown clothes, spectacled. The dude works as a teacher at school.

You can’t ignore the people, so to speak, who participate in the cartoon.

DimDimych. A human child, the guy is eight years old, he, like any child, wants to know everything. He and Nolik immediately found mutual language, made friends and saw common topics. Of course he keeps the secret of new friends. A dreamer, he enjoys participating in adventures.

Professor Geniy ​​Evgenievich. This is the same adult who knows about the existence of all this little stuff. He knows Dedus and has been friends with him for a very long time. It is in his laboratory that young fixers study. Their school is located there.

Parents of the child. They are ordinary people, working and unable to spend much time with their son. He is considered an inventor, a poet, and they would never believe in the existence of a small civilization. They appear and sometimes participate in what is happening, but there is very little going on there.

Animals.

They are also in the cartoon. Where would we be without them? Every home has these favorites.

Nipper is a dog, her breed is Chihuahua, everyone loves her. And she loves her owners in return, so she protects them as best she can, including from small creatures. Not bad, but at the same time it can create problems for those whom she considers enemies, because, according to her logic, they can harm the owner and mistress.

Grisha, this is our parrot. It was brought at one time from Africa.

Bug. And this is a beetle-like creature that is friends with fixies. She is naturally inquisitive, so she constantly drags her friends into some kind of adventure.

So we actually gathered everyone, found out the names and described the characters a little. Although, true fans, of course, know their favorites by their names, their stories, and even more so their characters. It will not be possible to identify a negative participant; there is none.

Let's draw a conclusion.

So easily, ours were able to create a hit. And children watch this creation with great pleasure. It seemed to me that this was a quite suitable plot, interesting story and unusual new heroes. There may be many comparisons with Western analogues, there are some repetitions in the plots of certain episodes, and so on. But I think quality has been done, here good always wins and everyone remains happy. This is how it should be in such cartoons, because their main audience is children, and children should strive to be kind and believe that good can always defeat evil, justice is above all, and friendship and family cannot be replaced by anything else. I advise those who haven't watched it to watch it. In fact, time will fly by quickly, and you will have fun. There are critics who, as always, have found something to complain about, but at the same time they are not very successful in justifying their “Fe”. What they don’t show children, but in in this case I don’t find anything terrible, invented magical and not so magical creatures have always been in fairy tales and in cartoons, this does not give rise to anything negative in children.

The house in which fixies live is a happy one. These little people tirelessly make sure that all equipment is always in perfect working order. Their life is full of adventures, because being so small is not so easy. There is always a possibility of falling somewhere, falling, or being locked in one device or another. Moreover, the dog is constantly trying to catch up...

Probably, this life full of dangers taught the fikis to be so friendly and always come to the aid of each other. Some people should take a closer look at them to learn kindness and mutual assistance. But, alas, that is impossible. Fixies carefully hide from people, in especially dangerous moments they simply turn into small cogs. True, some lucky people still manage to make friends with them!

Description of the heroes

Simka is the pride of her parents. This is an obedient, responsible girl. She studies well at fikiski school and looks after her younger brother Nolik. And she is also a wonderful friend: she will never leave you in trouble, she will always come to the aid of anyone, be it a fixie, a person or even a dog. However, if a girl sees that someone is doing something bad, she can teach them a lesson. She has enough imagination to come up with a plan on how to do this, so that the person or fixer himself realizes that he is doing wrong. Simka also has his own little secret: the girl is a little in love with her classmate Igrek, although she tries to hide it.

This is the youngest and most restless of all fixies. He is interested in absolutely everything, he tries to figure everything out on his own, and constantly gets stuck in different stories. You can catch Nolik in the most unexpected places: he either finds himself locked in the freezer, or locked in the TV remote control, which the dog Nipper hides under the sofa. It’s good that you have real friends nearby who are always ready to help. Nolik is often scolded, but still loved for his kindness, cheerful disposition and responsiveness.

This is the head of a small family of fixers. Most of all in life he likes to work. When all the equipment in the house is working properly, he begins to get bored. He once dreamed of becoming a space fixer, and was preparing for his first flight beyond the Earth. However, the rocket launch occurred while Papus had a day off, and spaceship flew away without him. Since then, he doesn't like days when he doesn't have to go to work. And Papus is very strong and kind. He is always ready to run to the aid of those who are in trouble, and you can be sure that he will find a way out of any, even the most difficult situation.

Simka and Nolik’s mother is wonderful. Although she is strict, she is still very kind. Together with Papus, she is busy fixing equipment all day long. But still, her main concern is her children. Like any other mother, she constantly worries about them, and is very upset when they get into trouble. Masya spends a lot of time teaching her son and daughter all the intricacies of how fixers work.

Grandfather is the wisest of all cartoon characters. It seems that he knows everything in the world. He is ready to share his knowledge with everyone. Grandfather works at a school for fixers, where he teaches the younger generation of little helpers all the intricacies of working with equipment. Although he is a strict teacher, he is always ready to help his students, not only during classes, but also in life.

Fire is a little fixie, he goes to school with Nolik and Simka. And this is the most mischievous and active boy in class. He is always ready for adventure, without them life seems boring to him. However, just like studying at school. Fire is one of those guys who prefers to do rather than think. Of course, this does not lead to anything good, and all sorts of troubles often happen due to the fault of this fixer.

The smartest of all the students at the school of fixers. Most of all, he likes to spend time gaining more and more new knowledge. They often helped out the whole motley group of little people. Everyone loves and appreciates the Igrek, even though they consider him a little boring. Everyone knows: you just have to ask, and he will definitely come to the rescue, he will never leave a friend in trouble.

All fixes are very good creatures. However, Simka's friend Shpulya surpasses everyone. She is ready to be friends with everyone, take care and protect. This girl is ready to do anything for her friends; she really likes to play and study with them. It is almost impossible to quarrel with her; dear Shpulya is always ready to give in. She is very worried when other fixies quarrel and tries to reconcile them at all costs.

The most beautiful girl class. She is fashionable and stylish and loves to take care of her appearance. Instead of tools, her helper contains a hair dryer, a comb and a mirror. She, of course, sometimes wonders a little, but her friends Simka and Shpulya still love her very much, because they know for sure: if necessary, Verta will forget about her hair and manicure and will come running to the rescue.

Other characters

The most ordinary boy. He goes to school, is sometimes lazy to do his homework, loves to chat with friends, play and use the computer. In general, he is no different from millions of other guys. But one day he was very lucky: he managed to meet real fixies. They quickly learned to play together, and that friendship taught Dim Dimych a lot. From the little people he learned responsibility and hard work. I also began to be more attentive to my things, to protect and care for them.

A small dog living with Dim Dimych. Everyone considers her harmful, especially the fixies, which she likes to run after barking loudly. However, this is not at all true. Inside Nipper has the heart of a faithful and brave dog. She dreams of becoming a service dog to protect people and save them from harm. She has already proven her abilities when she saved all the inhabitants of the apartment, noticing a faulty socket and calling the fixers for help.

Genius Evgenievich Chudakov

They say about such people: he is simply crazy! Indeed, Professor Geniy ​​Evgenievich is so absorbed in his work that he may not notice anything around him. He is capable of forgetting to eat and drink coffee, losing his umbrella and keys. But one thing you can be 100% sure of: Genius Evgenievich will always complete his work on time and well. For this reason, he enjoys special respect from the fixies, with whom he managed to make friends when he was a little boy, such as Dim Dimych.

A faithful assistant to Genius Evgenievich, she can’t get used to the strange things that happen in the professor’s laboratory. Strange sounds, objects appearing out of nowhere and the whisper of thin voices frighten the impressionable Lizonka. After all, she doesn’t even suspect the existence of fixies! Despite everything, the girl continues to work with Chudakov. After all, who else but her will make sure that he at least sometimes interrupts his work to eat and sleep.

Vaska

A little funny spider has been living in the house of Dim Dimych and his parents for a long time. He is as restless and curious as most fixies. Therefore, he also gets into all sorts of stories, and Dedus uses them to tell the guys about this or that device or phenomenon.

Dim Dimych's parents are wonderful! Dad works on television, hosts a travel program. Due to his duty, he himself has to travel a lot around the world. From different exotic countries he brings all sorts of interesting souvenirs. And when his boy grows up a little, he will definitely take him with him to Africa. Their mother will be waiting for them at home. She works as a dentist, and that profession is worse than a boxer. But still she is very sweet, kind and caring. And Dim Dimych’s mom and dad love each other and their son very much. This is a kind and friendly family. This is probably why the fixies chose their house to settle.

When we went to visit the fixies, we could not even imagine that such a warm and friendly welcome awaited us. Oksana Gukasyan – executive producer series "Fixies" and Daria Morgunova - co-author of the script concept for the series "Fixies" and director of public relations, not only showed "Mamsila" the holy of holies of their beloved children's series, but also answered our questions in detail.

Who came up with the series "Fixies" and how are they connected with "Guarantee Men" by Eduard Uspensky?

Daria:

“At first, our producer Georgy Vasiliev had the idea of ​​​​creating a large Russian animation project with an eye on both Russian and international audiences.

Vasiliev, now creative producer project "Fixies" has always been its locomotive. He began to look for allies in the animation world and met. This happened in 2005, but the cooperation, very joyful, active and fruitful, unfortunately, was short-lived, because in 2007 Alexander Tatarsky died suddenly.

We remember Alexander Mikhailovich as an inexhaustible source of creative ideas and paradoxical jokes. This man-magnet rallied around himself a lot of young animation forces at the Pilot studio.


By the way, cooperation with “Pilot” was one of the reasons why our company is called “Airplane”.


Back in 2005, traditional original animation existed, one might say, in a nature reserve. The animators gathered once a year for the Suzdal festival, where everyone communicated with each other, but their films did not receive access to Russian television screens.

Television at that time preferred to buy foreign animated series: it was cheaper and made it possible to plan the broadcast schedule according to unified standard. No one was interested in Russian original animation, because it produced one-off films that were inconvenient for modern TV channel programming.

And here's for big project Vasiliev and Tatarsky began to look for a theme, a plot idea. It was Alexander Mikhailovich who advised us to pay attention to the story “Guarantee Men” by Eduard Uspensky.

For Alexander Mikhailovich, although in reality he was over fifty, he was always characterized by the special look of a child. This is a rare and very valuable quality for an artist!


Tatarsky said: “When I was a five-year-old boy, I was very interested in who lives inside technology. I remember that as a child I thought about this all the time...”

Tatarsky and Uspensky had known each other for a long time: for example, the famous “Plasticine Crow” was created by Tatarsky based on poems by Uspensky. Our team contacted Eduard Nikolaevich and acquired the rights to film the story. But it immediately became clear that, despite the brilliant creative idea Basically, it literally doesn’t make sense to transfer it to the screen now. Many of the realities in it are outdated.

In the mid-seventies, when the story was written, there were large radios and huge televisions, so the warranty men who lived in this technology were the size of a mouse. And in 2005 the time had already come for small mobile phones, and it became clear that technology is rapidly developing and becoming more and more compact.

Of course, the characters in the story simply would not fit into such a technique, and it was necessary to find some kind of new image. And for the international market, the phrase “warranty men” looked long and difficult to translate.


We began to come up with English-language neologisms. We were helped by a bilingual girl, a philologist, who suggested several options for names. Then we gathered focus groups in St. Petersburg. These were English speaking people from different countries, of different ages and professions: diplomats, scientists, journalists, nannies, trade representatives, sailors... They all sat at an oval table and discussed with them different variants titles.

They reacted sharply negatively to some, but the word “The Fixies” caused positive emotions, they immediately said: “Yes, yes, yes! We understand this, this is great! Here you can immediately feel the combination of words - small magical creature- and to fix - to fix." That is, they immediately heard that these are little people who repair something. And since there was such an unambiguous positive reaction, we settled on this name. Fortunately, such a trademark was still free for registration in almost all product categories, which we took advantage of.

And “Fixies” is the Russian version of the English neologism “The Fixies”.


Do cartoon characters have real prototypes?

Oksana:

"It is difficult to name specific real prototypes. Our characters are, rather, collective images. We can say that fixies are humanoid creatures. This means that their prototypes are people. WITH different characters, actions and relationships. The fixie community is very similar to human society.

The main fixie characters are children, because they evoke maximum emotions in our target audience. Preschoolers and younger schoolchildren It is important to follow the example of movie characters, and they are looking for those who would be like them.


We deliberately made sure that there were no negative heroes in our world. To develop a plot, you don't necessarily need a pathological villain who destroys everything in his path. Problems arise in everyone's life when they need to prove themselves in some unconventional way. This is what becomes the basis of conflict for our stories.

In each episode, we discover some facet of our characters’ character and try to look at them from different angles.


But we have a few characters that we have a more ironic attitude towards. For example, this is Professor Chudakov’s assistant, Lizonka. She is not bad guy, she just constantly struggles with something strange and incomprehensible to her. After all, she doesn’t know about the existence of fixies. And this constantly creates a comic effect.

Or the dog Kusachka, who lives in DimDimych’s apartment. She hunts little people with glowing heads. True, in one of them we tried to talk about her true intentions, and it turned out that inside she is a noble character with a great desire to help, it’s just that no one understands her dog language.”


How do teachers and psychologists evaluate the series?

Oksana:

“In each episode, we try to convey some important idea, a moral: for example, “being greedy is bad,” “think before you act,” or “remember the feelings of others.” We always talk through all these pedagogical points.

When we read reviews and articles about our cartoons not only from parents, but also from psychologists, we understand that we are moving in the right direction. Our cartoon is traditionally considered useful content for children."


Daria:

“At the same time, in creativity we rely more on our own instincts and intuition than on the work and consultations of psychologists. Unfortunately, we are faced with the fact that psychologists make very straightforward, unambiguous demands regarding artistic creativity.

For example, several years ago, at the level of a normative act, it was proposed to introduce a rule that in children's cartoon There should be no more than three colors on the screen. How to implement this? Artistic creativity is more complex. We try to adopt the positive experience of children's literary and film classics rather than follow the rules that are formulated by psychologists today."


Oksana:

“Sometimes in the series we tell quite complex things from a technical point of view and we get feedback even from adults: “We didn’t know before that it works like that!” Or: “Oh, thank you very much for telling me how to remove stickers from items!"

We believe that our series is useful for children to watch with their parents."



Why does it take so long for series to be created?

Oksana:

“When the script for the episode has already been written, and it goes into the hands of the director, the stage of creating the picture itself lasts 3.5-4 months. But First stage– coming up with a story, writing a script – unpredictable. It can take from 1.5-2 weeks to 6-9 months. Until we are sure that our story is interesting and cool, we do not launch the series into production.




We take this very seriously. Therefore among large quantity Of the authors with whom we are always ready to collaborate, not all of them reach the final stage of the finished script. However, we have a strict production schedule, and the episodes, like it or not, must be released in a clear sequence.

Writing a script for The Fixies is very difficult.


We must take into account great amount nuances. The scriptwriter must remember that fixies are very small, and he needs to learn to look at the world through their eyes, to feel himself on a different scale. Remember that the action of our series is limited to only two settings - DimDimych’s apartment and Chudakov’s laboratory.

Building new sets is very expensive and unprofitable for the series, so we can’t go outside, drive a car or take a bus around the city, or go into the forest. We have to constantly look for different moves, options for playing out the plot.

For example, in the series, in order not to come up with some big location, we built a box that contains basketball hoop, and it looks pretty realistic. All these microlocations can be created using simple objects: a pen, an eraser, an eraser, a button.

In the series drum set for Nolik it consists of paper clips, some tubes - in a word, from scrap materials."

But the most difficult thing is to build dramaturgy, to tell the story from the beginning through the conflict and climax to the denouement."


From the editor:

Behind the scenes of the children's series is huge world where talented and hardworking people: director, screenwriters, animators, actors, producers and many others. Details about how stories are born and come to life can be found in the videos.

The interview was recorded by Vilena Kotova.

All children and most adults love cartoons. Thanks to modern technologies The creation of cartoons, animated series, and full-length animated films has long been on stream, so choosing the best cartoon from the whole variety of proposals is a very difficult task. We will tell you about one of the most popular domestic animated series, whose characters have already fallen in love with millions of children.

What did we initially know about fixies? And practically nothing! However, when they were mentioned, the chorus of the title song of the series immediately came to mind: “Who are the fixies? Big big secret! Let's try to figure it out and discover this big cartoon secret.

Parents of the animated series


The animated series was created based on the story “Guarantee Men” by Eduard Uspensky. Yes, yes, the same Eduard Uspensky, who came up with everyone’s favorite stories about Crocodile Gen and Cheburashka, Prostokvashino, based on whose script the cartoons about Uncle Au, octopuses, and kolobok investigators were created.

The idea of ​​the series belongs to the animator Alexander Tatarsky (“The Adventures of Captain Vrungel”, “Plasticine Crow”, “Carrion” last year's snow", "Wings, legs and tails").

What is the cartoon about?


The animated series talks about little fictional people called fixies, who are well versed in technology and enjoy fixing it, telling children about the structure and operating principles of this or that equipment.

“Fixies are little people who live in cars and devices, take care of them, repair them, clean them, and lubricate them. People don’t realize this, they think that if a broken device sat for a while and then started working again, it happened by itself. In fact, nothing just happens,” this is how the creators of the series answer the question about fixies.

How did fixies appear?

When something is done well, they say that it was made with soul. The craftsmen left a piece of their soul in the devices; these pieces of the soul turned into little masters - fixers who continued to live in the devices. Now almost all things are made not by people, but by machines in factories. Therefore, fixies have to raise their children themselves and teach them to be smart.

The attitude of fixies towards people

Fixies try to avoid people. They are afraid that people, having learned about fixies, will begin to catch them and keep them in captivity, like pets. Or even worse, they will drag you into their scientific laboratories and conduct scientific experiments there.

Description of the heroes

Simka is the pride of her parents. This is an obedient, responsible girl. She studies well at fikiski school and looks after her younger brother Nolik. And she is also a wonderful friend: she will never leave you in trouble, she will always come to the aid of anyone, be it a fixie, a person or even a dog. However, if a girl sees that someone is doing something bad, she can teach them a lesson. She has enough imagination to come up with a plan on how to do this, so that the person or fixer himself realizes that he is doing wrong. Simka also has her own little secret: the girl is a little in love with her classmate Igrek, although she tries to hide it.

This is the youngest and most restless of all fixies. He is interested in absolutely everything, he tries to figure everything out on his own, and constantly gets involved in different stories. You can find Nolik in the most unexpected places: he either finds himself locked in the freezer, or locked in the TV remote control, which the dog Kusachka hides under the sofa. It’s good that you have real friends nearby who are always ready to help. Nolik is often scolded, but still loved for his kindness, cheerful disposition and responsiveness.


This is the head of a small family of fixers. Most of all in life he likes to work. When all the equipment in the house is working properly, he begins to get bored. He once dreamed of becoming a space fixer, and was preparing for his first flight beyond the Earth. However, the rocket launch occurred while Papus had a day off, and the spacecraft left without him. Since then, he doesn't like days when he doesn't have to go to work. And Papus is very strong and kind. He is always ready to run to the aid of those who are in trouble, and you can be sure that he will find a way out of any, even the most difficult situation.

Simka and Nolik’s mother is wonderful. Although she is strict, she is still very kind. Together with Papus, she is busy fixing equipment all day long. But still, her main concern is her children. Like any other mother, she constantly worries about them, and is very upset when they get into trouble. Masya spends a lot of time teaching her son and daughter all the intricacies of how fixers work.
