In this thesis, the movie with mise-en-scene established was compared with the peculiarity of the play that is the etymological source of the term to identify the peculiarity of mise-en-scene which was substituted into animation to find the peculiarity of mise-en-scene in animation. To emphasize the direct connection between the frame's visual peculiarity and the director's opinions, the mise-en-scene of director centered animation created under a restricted environment was reviewed. Mise-en-scene which started from movie critics theory does not simply mean the arrangement of images in a frame. Mise-en-scene emphasizes the exposure of the work's motive by the visual components. The animation's assuming the middle point of environmental share possessed by play and movie when schematizing the genre peculiarity of animation, play and movie was a noteworthy result. It can be said that the cause is that the animation's peculiarity yield different results depending on the making methods; we verified that this is a key factor in the analysis of animation's mise-en-scene. I emphasized that the peculiarity of animation mise-en-scene is in its making method and material and suggested identifying the work's making methods and analyzing the work's aesthetic results derived in this way. The russian animation which was perceived as peripheral arts was relatively free from the burden of censorship while receiving support from the Soviet as a media for propaganda. The russian animation's mise-en-scene which found the material for its works in the country's folklore was metaphorical, focused on new expression forms and achieved experimental elements. Russian animation pursues a unique aesthetic world through space expression based on the forms of opera or ballet and heavy motions formed static inbetweens.

Due to the development of digital cinema, Animations are no longer a peripheral part of movies and become major role in making films, including live action movies. This kind of change makes the distinctive line between animations and live action movies vague. In order to prevent such side-effect, this study is aimed at building solid territory again between the two by reviewing the difference and, based on it, looking for effective cinematic techniques to produce synthesized and digitalized images. First of all, consideration on mise-en-scene is crucially required to tell this line. The mise-en-scene is a director's own unique style in making films. In other words, it is a symbol expressed by him/her. With the mise-en-scene, competitive directors explore huge possibility of image expression and know how to use it audiences can understand. Therefore, I look into a set of studies on the mise-en-scene and methodological problems because it is thought that the mise-en-scene is an important element to distinguish way of expression in animations, live action movies and digital cinema. In addition, owing to these fundamental differences, both movies have their own limitation on representation even though they imitate it each other. Synthesized images produced by both representation may not overcome that limitation and even worse bring up the lack of expression and the increase on unfamiliarity, which reduce audiences' interest. But ironically speaking, digital cinema accept each representation. And it serves as hindrance to narrative's delivery not to balance each of it. Therefore, digital cinema that integrate animations and live action movies should keep an eye on the overuse of images and pursue balanced mise-en-scene.

Stop-Motion Animation is the work that gives lives to the objects. In order to give lives to objects and to form story line to persuade the audience, it is important that the reason of choice of color, material, and texture has something to do with the narratives. For this study, among the Garri Bardin's animation, the ones with good representation of the objects have been chosen: Conflict (1983), Fioritures (1987), and Adagio (2000). With these animations, I would like to look for the meaning of existence of the objects, and to consider the importance of the relationship between the types of objects that are represented and the narratives.

The appearance of digital culture swiftly has changed the culture in domestic and international arenas before and after the year 2004 and the image and animation have become two of the most important expression media in contemporary age. Among the Japanese animations that have demonstrated the rapid development of cartoon and animation in the world, the director Dakahata Isao's 'Graves of the Fireflies' that has influenced many works has been evaluated as one of the noticeable works that has a unique method and scenario dramatization in terms of producing the original novel into an animation. This study investigates the metaphor and symbolism shown in this work according to each sequence, divides the production ability in the work into three elements and applies them to the important elements such as camera, colors and mise-en-scene when the original work is depicted into image. It can be summarized in more detail as in the following: firstly, I study the rhythm of camera corresponding to the symbolism of the angle that the camera has and production; secondly, I analyze the artistic elements appeared in the process of expressing the original work into the image, especially the production for the colors and symbolism contained in them and the composition of screen. Thirdly, I analyze how effectively the atmosphere for the situations for the original work is expressed in animation with the aid of one of the image elements, mis-en-scene. It is expected that the analyzed findings will be effective as a way of overcoming the limitation of expressions that the original work in text and the study on these processes will become good examples to the relevant workers and will be the good references to the producers who are interested in the creation of animation in Korea.

I analysis Alfonso Cuaron's comparing it with Charles Dickens' the original novel and David Lean's . In order to evaluate film which is based on classic novel, formal difference between film and novel, people's preference in those days and director's interpretations should be considered besides how the film follow the original novel faithfully. Regarding to these valuation basis, David Lean's film is true to the original novel and same time successful to add director's interpretation by using Mise en secne in it. Alfonso Cuaron is also succeed in filming well-made, people-like work by modifying the original novel with the convention of melo-drama genre and by using modern film form without breaking Hollywood classic film grammar.

This study was performed on purpose to consider the charade function of props in directing animation. The prop is gradually expanded its role and scope in modern animation. Its scope covers dramatic factors, creating and changing characters, the means of psychological description or emotional expression, mise-en-scene, montage, creating products etc. Like this, the prop has an important function emotionally or indispensably in human life. Thus, the prop should be a subject that can speak to audiences or viewers, not worthless and silent subject. Hence, the prop should be recognized as a charade having productional function. Nevertheless, the prop has been unnoticed up to now. The function of props should be valued hereafter. The prop itself is meaningless, but it always speaks to audiences on the screen.
