Introduction of motion capture system to the field of digital entertainment paved the way to accelerate the development of 3D character animation all the more. Motion capture system has been developed of the level that it can capture the fierce motions of character particularly in the digital game image and improve the dynamic characteristics by capturing the movement of human muscle or express the human's true emotion by capturing wrinkles and expression on face. Such an extension of realistic expression enables them to be used increasingly in movie, TV, advertisement, music video, etc centering around the game industry in the field of digital entertainment. The fact is, however, that many difficulties are held in the image production process compared with the competing countries such as USA and Japan, owing to inferiorities in technical expertise and capital in the image production process using the local motion capture, insufficient professional human resources of motion capture and small size of local motion capture image market. Hence, this study intends to suggest the plan to improve the technical problems in terms of integrated motion capture system, motion capture professional human resources and motion capture in-house program development in the production process of digital entertainment image using the motion capture system by surveying local and overseas examples of image production.

As 5G is getting developed, people are getting interested in immersive content. Some predicts that immersive content may be implemented in real life such as holograms, which were only possible in movies. Holograms, which has been studied for a long time since Dennis Gabor published the basic theory in 1948, are constantly developing in a new direction with digital technology. It is developing from a traditional optical hologram, which is produced by recording the interference pattern of light to a computer generated hologram (CGH) and a digital hologram printer. In order to produce a hologram using a digital hologram printer, holographic element (Hogel) image must first be created using multi-view images. There are a method of directly photographing an actual image and a method of modeling an object using 3D graphic production tool and rendering the motion of a virtual camera to acquire a series of multi-view images. In this paper, we propose a new method of getting image, which is one of the visual effect, VFX, producing multi-view images using chroma key composition. We shoot on the green screen of actual object, suggest the overall workflow of composition with 3D computer graphic(CG) and explain the role of each step. We expected that it will be helpful in researching a new method of image acquisition in the future if all or part of the proposed workflow to be applied.

Edutainment refers to the form of entertainment designed to educate as well as to amuse. It typically seeks to instruct its audience by embedding messages or educational contents in some familiar form of entertainment such as computer games, films, websites, multimedia software, etc. The purpose of this study is to identify the determinants of attitude toward online game-based edutainment. This study proposes the attitude, fun, usefulness, social interaction, challenge, and educational story as major research variables, and collected the survey responses from game players having experiences with online game-based edutainment. Factor analysis confirmed that 19 questions can be categorized into 6 factors : attitude, fun, usefulness, social interaction, challenge, and educational story. Regression analysis shows that fun, usefulness and educational story significantly and directly affect the attitude toward these edutainment games, and that educational story influences the level of usefulness. In addition, challenge and social interaction were found to have significant impact on fun. In conclusion, the wider implications of the findings for utilizing online game-based edutainment are provided.

The purpose of this study was to identify menopausal resilience in middle-aged women. The data were collected from 227 middle-aged women who participated in friendship and religious activities in the Jeonbuk province. The data were collected through self-report questionnaires, which were constructed to Self-efficacy, family support, social support, menopausal adaptation, resilience. Data were analyzed using frequencies, means, $X^2$_Test, pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 23. Regular exercise(${\beta}=-.15$, p<.01), self-efficacy(${\beta}=.29$, p=<.001), social support(${\beta}=.29$, p=<.001), menopausal Adaptation(${\beta}=.17$, p<.01) were influencing factors and these variables showed an explanatory power of 35.3% (F=18.65, p<.001). Therefore, it is suggested that middle-aged women in menopause can plan to overcome the menopausal crisis positively through nursing interventions that include self-efficacy and social support.

The age of digital content mainstream consumers in the era of smart technology is expanding compared to the past. Consumers are taking a leading role in the production and distribution of contents in various forms. At the center of this is a post-modern social structure and space that break down the boundaries among Personal Digital Device, contents, production and consumption as a medium. Content rejects the existence of the same thing in the world. The tendency of the main consumer segment and the provision of post modern storytelling that penetrates it creates a huge industry group with various forms of contents. In order to carry out this study, with analyzing examples of movies, games, and advertisements, we found the fact that the center of content creation for individuals made their unique style, excluding generality. As a result of this research, the relationship between the user-driven digital contents and post modern storytelling have been revised the awareness about the possibility of various convergence in the field of contents production.

This study tries to figure out the precarious communication types between parents and their children. For this, the linguistic behavioral characteristics of the main characters in the movie "Daughter" were extracted from their dialogues with the matrix analysis and were conceptualized. These conceptual features were analyzed in the convergence way combined with Transactional analysis and Satir's communication theory. The result shows that the dysfunctional communication between parents and children deteriorates their relation and even could collapse it. Thus. for their whole relation, it is important that they keep the functional communication between them. The study suggested the need for the parental education and youth personality education which let them know how to facilitate their communication.

Nowadays, 3-D(Three-dimensions) is used in various field such as Games, Movies, Animations etc. Especially the Role of 3-D computer graphic is being generalized by turnover of Screen from '2-dimensional' to '3-dimensional'. There are not enough data about 'Motion Capture' even though it plays main function in 3-dimensional movement. 'Motion Capture' could be also unfamiliar for people. And as a matter of fact, the use of this equipment is limited due to its high cost. Therefore, I studied the outline of Digital Motion Capture system and its application to 3-D game Character Animation. And I checked the movement of 3-D Character after transplanting the Motion Data to the 3-D Character. I acquired Motion Data by Optical Motion Capture Equipment which we possess and transplanted it into the 3-D Character then Implemented it as walking, running and hitting which are the basic motions of Expression.

Visual effect production by computer graphics techniques has become more important in these days. However, there are three problems in the domestic contents production environments. First of all, most Korean film companies have insufficient generally potential to maintain and support their R&D (Research and Development) teams. Secondly, they are much dependent on the abroad commercial software tools. Finally, many people have to participate in the image production pipeline, called the labor-intensive pipeline. In producing a demonstration work, "The Sixty -miles-an-hour man", we have evaluated the usefulness of the developed camera tracking and image composition methods and then examined various production consideration elements. In addition, in order to develop a productive technical element and write a competitive film script, mutual understanding between the developers and the production users should be achieved. Also, this paper describes a role of the technical supervisor to direct the production environment in detail.
