Abstract:The computer animation industry has been booming and prospering in recent thirty years. One of the significant changes faced by this industry is the evolution of computer-animation data and, yet, extant literature has offered very little insights into the evolution process and management issues pertinent to academics and also insights to practitioners for more effective and innovative management of computer-animation data. This conceptual paper, therefore, takes the pioneering step to address these issues by p… Show more
“…Animation can be seen in film and television, TV advertisements, TV columns, medicine, industry, science and education, games, webpage production, virtual reality, and other fields [23][24][25]. For example, in TV news or science and education films, we will often see the simulation animation produced by digital technology to deduce the occurrence of an event or show the occurrence process of natural phenomena [26], so that we can understand in more detail the unforeseen things around us; the virtual display animation used in the field of the construction industry can help real estate developers and potential customers to see the scale and completion effect of the building more intuitively [27,28].…”
Section: The Extension Of Animation Categorymentioning
With the rapid development of digital art and machine science and technology, the production form of modern animation tends to be diversified, and with the important role of animation color in the animation film foil and rendering, more and more attention was paid by the animation design industry. Computer graphic technology is a new type of artistic creation method, and its birth and development are closely related to computer technology. The purpose of this paper is to make some analysis and induction from the perspective of science and technology and culture and to explore the application of Photoshop graphics and image processing technology in the field of animation. First, the definition of “animation” and the extension of the animation category are introduced. Then, the main functions of Photoshop image processing technology are described in detail. According to the research content, this paper designs a self-made experimental short film “future city.” After the simulation of experimental animation film and the setting and positioning of the experimental scene, Photoshop software was used to show the animation scene. The experimental results show that the color changes in the short film “future city.” After the saturation of sunny scenery is reduced by 3 points and the brightness is reduced by 20 points and the filter, mode change, and color adjustment are carried out, a complete rainy scenery can be obtained. The self-made experimental short film has guiding significance for the creation and practice.

“…To date, the Open Production Online Platforms are used to create graphics and animation outputs with different objectives, from adv, to entertainment, to social awareness, to information (Liang et al 2016). These platforms are currently tools capable of conveying a dynamic, versatile, shared, multi-platform and cross-media dimension of the design of graphic, static or animated content and interactive interfaces.…”

“…In the next paragraph, the phenomenon of diffuse design will be critically analyzed, and the open design and open production approaches will be investigated, with particular attention to the sector of visual communication and the production of motion design artifacts. Motion design, indeed, has proven in recent years to be a dynamic design field of application more open to spontaneous, not disciplined but legitimized performances due to an ease of access and mastery of shared contents, open platforms, technical tools and user-friendly technologies (Liang et al 2016). Furthermore, motion design allows an effective logic of customization and hybridization of languages and codes of representation.…”
Section: Introduction: the Co-design Frameworkmentioning
In recent years, co-creation and collaboration platforms to create and deliver new products and services have taken a step forward; this has led to the development of a new active involvement of users, who from co-designers have become independent designers, even if not experts. Co-design is dynamic and provides the tools to generate democratic design processes guided by the users themselves. The democratization of design tools is the premise for a new paradigm defined ‘Diffuse Design’ by Manzini (2015). This contribution explores the approaches of open design and open production with particular attention to the field of visual communication and the production of motion design artifacts. After an introduction to the co-design framework, the main open-production visual communication platforms are presented to offer an overview of the topic. Next, the potential of online platforms to enable non-designers to produce animated artifacts is explored by examining student projects in a motion design University course. The most significant outputs of the student experience are then described and critically analyzed. Finally, the conclusions investigate the different perspectives for reading the democratization of tools for creating visual artifacts and lay the foundations for future lines of research.
“…Now, computer animation production is an increasingly data intensive process. One of the significant changes faced by animation industry is the evolution of computer animation data [1]. The animation data management strategy of an animation company revolves around the creation, presentation, storage, retrieval and reuse of its valuable animation data assets, which is playing an important role in CG production and video game industry.…”
Abstract. In recent years, one of the most noticeable issues of current animation production is the challenge from the exponential growth of animation data known as an increasingly data-intensive process. There are obvious gaps between the animation production needs and research development, which call for novel design and new technology to tackle the emerging challenge of handling huge amounts of data. "iMCA" is designed to develop intelligent data management solution with the capability to handle massive and hyper type animation asset and analyze/summarize information for reuse of data to facilitate human creativity providing innovative interaction to allow the manipulation of massive animation data.
