다양한 게임의 분야 중 온라인게임의 가장 큰 특징은 게임 속 캐릭터가 게이머 지시에 따라 역할을 수행하며 이를 통해 캐릭터가 성장하는 상호작용성을 갖는 것이다 온라인 게임에서의 캐릭터는 게이머 자신을 표현하는 대상이 되며 동시에, 현실의 자아와 게임의 세계관이 결합해서 나오는 하나의 인격체이기도 하다. 캐릭터 선정은 게이머가 게임을 시작하기 위해 진행하는 최초의 행위이기 때문에 게이머들은 각자 판단하는 기준을 사용하여 캐릭터를 선정하게 된다. 따라서 게이머의 캐릭터 선정 기준을 파악하는 것은 게임 캐릭터를 기획/디자인하는 과정에서 필수적인 사항이라고 말할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 게임캐릭터를 선정하는 과정에서 게이머의 결정에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하기 위해, WoW 여성 캐릭터의 성격과 호감도를 중심으로 가설을 설정하고 연구를 진행하였다. 캐릭터의 선정 과정과 호감도의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여 피설문자의 캐릭터 선정 순위와 피설문자가 평가한 각각의 캐릭터의 호감도와 성격의 5요인을 분석하여 캐릭터의 선정 결과와 호강도의 관계를 도출하였다. 이를 통해 가설을 검증하고 게임 캐릭터의 기획 및 디자인 과정에서의 캐릭터 구성 방향을 제안한다.

본 기고에서는 멀티미디어 컨텐트에 등장하는 애니메이션 캐릭터를 개발하는 캐릭터 모델링 시스템의 기본적인 요구기능과 캐릭터 모델링 기법을 분석하고, 상용화된 모델링 시스템 및 라이브러리를 소개, 분석한다. 앞으로 설계되는 캐릭터 모델링 소프트웨어는 모델링 및 애니메이션 시스템을 통합한 환경에서 곡면기반의 기하 모델링 소프트웨어가 주류를 이룰 것으로 전망된다. 또한 캐릭터의 외피와 같이 유연하고 부드러운 물체를 표현하기 위하여 physically based modeling 기법과 음함수 곡면이 많이 사용될 것으로 판단된다.

애니메이션의 사전제작과정에서 캐릭터의 보다 효율적 제작, 분석, 평가을 위해 시각적 모델화및 데이터 베이스 구축이 필요했다. 캐릭터의 체격과 기질 관계를 조명하기 위해 W. 셀던의 체격기질유형 이론으로부터 정형화된 분석 틀을 구축하여 개념을 시각화하고 유형분석 모델을 만들었으며, 또한 케이스 스터디를 위해 세 애니메이션에 나타난 캐릭터의 유형들을 분석함으로써 모델의 적용 가능성과 나아가 애니메이션의 캐릭터에서 표현된 외적 형상과 내적 기질의 상관성을 추론하여 실제 적용이 가능한 기초적 데이터가 되도록 하였다.

아이덴티티(identity)는 퍼스낼리티(personality)로서 자신을 총체적으로 통합시켜 경쟁시대에 차별 화를 위한 새로운 이미지 정착의 수단으로 중요시 되고 있다. 본 연구는 각 캐릭터들 간의 다양성과 시각적 통일성 요소들을 파악하여 동질성 인지를 통한 캐릭터 아이덴티티를 확립하는 기초정보 제공에 목적이 있다. 따라서 범주화, 전형성 인지 과정에 관련된 선행연구를 바탕으로 캐릭터 인지의 형태적 대표성을 나타낼 수 있는 전형적 요소들이 있다는 가설 하에 사례분석을 통한 조형적 요소의 특징을 분류하였다. 또한 캐릭터 그룹 간의 아이덴티티를 나타낼 수 있는 형태적 요소의 범위를 파악하였으며, 기초설문조사를 바탕으로 캐릭터의 형태 인지에 따른 빈도분석 결과 형태 인지의 우선 순위는 얼굴, 눈 코 입, 면, 아웃라인 순으로 분석 되었다. 향후 캐릭터의 형태적 요소에 기인한 실증분석을 통해 캐릭터 아이덴티티를 실현하고자 한다.

In this thesis paper, the author uses this Enneagram to analyze the character. Enneagram is a tool that divides characters into 9 categories of personality. In the year of 2001, South Korea published the standardized Enneagram test called KEPTI. By using the division chart of Enneagram, it is much easier to analyze the character's personality type in the cartoon. Also, this tool makes it possible to understand which character type is suitable for certain role and genre. Although it is hard to say the Enneagram tool represents all existing personalities, it would be definitely helpful for someone who tries to create or to set up a new character.
