The animation film , which became a worldwide sensation with its theme song 'Let it go', did not only rank first in the U.S. box office - it was also the greatest box office hit in the history of Disney animation. Why did , recreated into a musical animation, become a worldwide success and what were the characteristics of its materialized hybrid visual direction technique? In order to look into this, firstly, literature on musicals and animations were studied, and secondly, analysis standards were drawn for musical characteristics of musicals and direction techniques of animations. Thirdly, analyzation and investigation will be conducted on hybrid visual direction techniques based on the research above with as the example. Through this study, it's known that realizes its musical features such as 'exaggerated acting,' 'delivering the meaning of circumstances', 'dramatic expression of emotion' and etc. through animated characters and that its background music is aided by 'narrative features' through its musical composition. Besides, its snow effect through animated VFX composing scenes along with its musical characteristics realizes hybrid image direction. It can be said that image directing effects of musical animations through hybrid grafting and the characteristics of image aesthetics generate public demands worldwide.

My artwork, '1000 years', in the form of an animation film has been exhibited in the '2011 Haein Art project' of a special exhibition at the Haeinsa monastery compound. The '1000 years' represents the marvels of sacredness and Buddhist symbols using the surrealist expression of computer animation. This paper would argue how Buddhist idea can be explored by the surrealist expression of 3D computer animation. In the light of this, animation and surrealist expression will be reviewed by the epistemological approach and based on this, I would attempt to reveal how this computer animation film represents the meaning of Buddhist symbols which exist in the monastery compound. This research is processed by the case study related to my artwork as the form of art practice based research.

The biggest purpose of sound is communication with spectator in animation. Animation sound delivers background to spectator more naturally through music age enemy, space enemy of fantastic, realistic work and use rhythm and rhythm according to smoke action of character and character delineation and specific character of character, atmosphere as is intimate to spectator. This research achieved research of connection literature data to grasp the importance of role and function that sound reaches in animation reflex. Because is companionate with reflex at animation sound manufacture process with this, in work whole atmosphere in Naereotibeu's structure progress of the event smoothly connect and focused to if make video and interaction of sound smoothly and deliver to spectator.

음악은 컴퓨터 음악, 인간-컴퓨터 상호작용, 데이터 청각화 그리고 최근 들어 컴퓨터 애니메이션이나 가상환경등에서 중요한 부분을 차지해왔다. 지금까지 음향의 모델링이나 함성 등 음향 자체에 대한 요소 기술들에 관해서는 많은 연구가 진행되었으나 앞으로 컴퓨터 애니메이션, 가상환경 등과 같이 영상의 동작과 음향이 서로 밀접하게 연관된 분야에서는 음향을 동작과 통합 처리할 수 있는 기술이 필수적이다. 따라서 본 고에서는 컴퓨터 애니메이션이나 가상환경 등에서 영상 내 물체의 움직임, 그와 동기된 음향의 자동생성 기술의 원리, 그 요소 기술들, 그리고 앞으로의 전망 등을 기술한다.

James Cameron's Avatar was a stunning success for digital characters. Digital animation character creation was not suddenly enabled by visual technology, rather it was a result of numerous attempts of combining animation and live action film with the help of technology advancement. Two pioneers in this field are James Cameron and Robert Zemeckis. Although continuous interest and research in visual technology existed, the two directors differed in how they viewed the use of technology. The difference is demonstrated in their two recent movies which will be covered in details. How these two directors differed in their approach remains a topic of study for us who continuously are exposed on advance visual technology and our reaction to the changing nature of the industry.

A cell animation is represented by one background cell, and there is much difference of images when its shot is changed. Also, it does not have a lot of colors since people themselves draw it. In order to effectively detect shot transitions of cell animations while fully considering their intrinsic characteristics, in this paper, we propose a animation shot boundary detection algorithm that utilizes color and block-based histograms step by step. The suggested algorithm first converts RGB color space into HSI color one, and coarsely decides if adjacent frames contains a shot transition by performing color difference operation between two images. If they are considered to have a shot transition candidate, we calculate color histograms for 9 sub-regions of the adjacent images and apply weights to them. Finally, we determine whether there is a real shot transition by analyzing the weighted sum of histogram values. In experiments, we show that our method is superior to others.

In contemporary performance arts, we can see diverse types of performances that use advanced technology and visual media. It is notable that animation based on narratives and images, is grafted on to performance arts. Cases emerge that introduce animation in opera performances as part of a new stagecraft. Regietheater that turns on directors' interpretation, has been expanded in full scale through major music festivals and theaters through many different attempts to embody. In this state, recently visual media have been actively employed in opera performances. It has led to expansion of time and space along with more attempts. Not least of all, introduction of animation has been conducive to reinforcing functionality of opera performances in many aspects. This study suggests requirements for ideal Regietheater production in opera performances. For this end, the functions of animation strategically used are evaluated through analyzing $Zauberfl{\ddot{o}}te$)> production of Komische Oper Berlin. Through this research, this study is to look deeply into effects created from new and different attempts by grafting animation on to opera performances.
