解读动画角色造型设计

动画就是指连续运动的影像。动画是具有着丰富的表现内容和手段的。而动画角色也就是相当于电影中的演员,它左右着整部影片的好坏与否,是整部影片的核心。它担负着整个故事的演绎和情节的推进,也表达着故事的核心内容和思想内涵。设计者在设计动画角色造型的同时也是在表达自己的思想内涵。一个成功的优秀的动画角色是可以凭借其鲜明的性格特点,夸张的外型特征和丰富的文化底蕴来获得观众的好感和认可的。

浅谈动画角色与场景设计

动画角色的塑造要标新立异,使角色有个性化的行为、独特的语言和生动活泼的角色性格,让他给观众刻苦铭心的印象.动画场景设计有丰富的表达语言,可以运用各种风格和表现手法,但前提必须以动画角色为依据,符合剧情,起到烘托主题的作用,而且应与其它部分的美术风格统一,让整个画面更协调更贴近故事的情节,只有这样场景语言才能令观众触景生情.     

色彩在三维动画角色设计中的作用

宫崎骏动画中的女性角色解读

在现实生活中,动画运用其特有的表现形式,通过绘画的视觉元素和影视的视听环境,为观众在现实与幻想中间架起了一座桥梁,让观众在动画中放纵自己潜意识里的欲望,打破常规与传统,通过将自己投射于角色之中来实现自己的欲望与理想,通过影片来释放自己解脱自己,使心灵受到一次洗礼。因此,动画角色成为人们的偶像,在潜移默化中影响当代青少年的人生价值观,甚至一些言行行为。本文通过对宫崎骏动画中的女性角色解读来分析动画角色是如何影响大众,实现大众的理想并释放欲望,最终使心灵升华并成长。

The effect of different chunking strategies in complementing animated instruction

The purpose of this exploratory and small‐scale study was to examine the instructional effects of different chunking strategies used to complement animated instruction in terms of facilitating achievement of higher order learning objectives. Eighty‐five students were randomly assigned to three treatment groups: animated program instruction, simple visual‐text (static images and verbal explanation) chunked animated program instruction and the animated complex visual‐text chunked program instruction. The difference between simple and complex chunked instructions is the content. Simple chunks only deal with one content area while the complex chunks explain two or more related content areas. Students interacted with their respective web‐based instructional treatments and completed four criterion measures. Results (ANOVA) indicated that significant differences in achievement were found to exist in facilitating higher order learning objectives when chunking strategies were specifically designed and positioned to complement the animated instruction. Results also indicated that complex chunking is more effective in reducing the cognitive load present in an animated instructional environment, and that students need prerequisite knowledge before being able to profit from animated instruction designed to facilitate higher order learning outcomes.     

远程教育中的智能教学代理：角色、设计要素与应用方式

智能教学代理是以鲜活的动画人物或拟人形象出现在计算机辅助教学过程中,对学习者进行学习支持的教育软件。智能教学代理近年来受到广泛关注,其应用和研究的广度和深度也在不断增加。在远程教育领域,智能教学代理可以作为辅导教师、学习伙伴、自身影像和实习对象,从认知、情感、创新等方面给予远程教育支持。为了保证智能教学代理的效果,设计过程中应注重其形象、能力、信息传递、情绪状态和交互方式等因素的设计。当前智能教学代理的研究尝试从双代理或多代理角度优化教学环境,提供更为精细、多元化的形象、信息和交互方式。今后,学者们将把学习者特征纳入到智能教学代理研究中,挖掘其在情感和元认知支持方面的更多功能。     

论“拟真人CG动画电影”的困境和误区

过去10多年里,CG技术的发展可谓日新月异。人们不但用计算机创造出逼真的虚拟世界,更试图使"拟真人CG动画电影"中的人类角色逼真程度达到真人演出的效果,从而以三维虚拟人物来代替真实演员。各大电影公司投入巨资,拍摄了大批"拟真人CG动画电影"。遗憾的是,此类影片纷纷折戟,使得"拟真人CG动画电影"的发展陷入困境。究其原因,在于技术设备的缺陷、对表演艺术的忽视和误解、对动画艺术"真实"的认识误区三个方面。     

Design of a TV Character with Visual Appeal for Preschool Children

Reactions were obtained of preschool children from urban and rural areas of Quebec to a range of animated and other representational characters presented on videotape. The visual elements which proved consistently appealing to them were identified, and their responses were collected (a) via electronic push‐button hand‐units sampling moment‐by‐moment responses to the material every two seconds; and (b) in discussion sessions following each showing. The electronic responses were inspected for possible effects of sex, cultural background (French vs English) and location (urban vs rural). The children had two clear favourites among the characters shown to them, sharing the following attributes: they were the only animal characters; both were highly colourful and sharply delineated; they were described as highly active and amusing; and were recalled as having a comical distinguishing feature (ears/tooth). By contrast, the characters provoking the most negative responses were lacking in colour, substantially less animated, and less easily recalled. Boys and girls had marginally different preferences. Rural children were less responsive and less systematic in their responses than urban children, though they shared the same basic preferences. No significant effect of cultural background was observed. The results are related to recent findings in the literature of children's broadcasting, and their possible application in the forthcoming production of a televised anti‐smoking promotion for pre‐schoolers is discussed.     

“Teachers’ Hegemony Sucks”: examining Beavis and Butt-head for signs of life

The analysis of cultural artefacts, such as cartoons and films, provides the potential to gain insights into both the professional identities of teachers and the behaviour and self-concepts of students. This paper suggests that the ostensibly banal animated cartoon characters Beavis and Butt-head offer some utility in this respect. The paper explores aspects of the stereotypes and behaviour represented in the Beavis and Butt-head series and briefly discusses some possible interpretations of these images.     

当前中国动画电影民族化叙事的缺失及对策

当前中国动画电影迷失在对美日动画的模仿之中,不仅在艺术形式上没有形成自己的独特风格,在叙事上也越来越丧失其应有的民族个性。坚持民族化叙事是当前中国动画在竞争日益激烈的动画市场上制胜的法宝。为此,动画创作者要善于从民间文学取材,并深挖其民族文化内涵;要按照现代人的思维方式,实现传统文化元素的当代转化;要实现民族化与国际化的统一;还要善于借鉴中外优秀动画电影以及中国传统文学的叙事策略,并“化”为己用。     

策划意识在动画角色设计中的应用探析

The Role of Agent Age and Gender for Middle-Grade Girls

Compared to boys, many girls are more aware of a social context in the learning process and perform better when the environment supports frequent interactions and social relationships. For these girls, embodied agents (animated on-screen characters acting as tutors) could afford simulated social interactions in computer-based learning and thereby supply a girl-friendly instructional context. This study examined the effects of the age and gender of an agent on ninth-grade Caucasian and ethnic-minority girls' perceptions of the agent, mathematics attitudes, and learning in a computer-based algebra-learning environment. In general, the findings support that a virtual agent plays both social and instructional roles that favor teenage girls and could be a viable tool to create a favorable context for girls learning challenging topics.
