Animation techniques that can freely create any movement of color and shape produce strong attraction by visualizing fantasy. Like animation, fantasy is often misunderstood that it has nothing to do with reality, but it is not the case. Fantasy introduces a little confusion in our symbolic order by reorganizing elements from reality and commonness. This confusion, which becomes desire, induces attraction. However, the confusion beyond our comprehension creates total chaos in which we cannot be interested. Attraction happens only when the introduced confusion is far less than the total symbolic order which has already been established. The images of animation are neither completely mundane to us nor beyond our comprehension; thus, animation produces attraction by offering us images that stimulate our unconscious desire.

연애가 이상이라면 결혼은 현실이라는 오래된 속언이 있다. 서로 다른 환경에서 다른 가치관을 지니고 살아온 두 사람이 결합하기 위해서는 현실과 이상의 거리만큼이나 많은 차이를 극복하는 과정이 필요하다는 의미다. 진실은 생각보다 단순하다.

The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the characteristics that make Guillermo del Toro's film Pan's Labyrinth (2006) a fantasy film, and the meaning and function of the labyrinth motifs closely related to it. Tzvetan Todorov defined the 'fantastic' as the hesitation between natural and supernatural interpretations in the face of supernatural events that invade reality. In Pan's Labyrinth, the fantastic continues to be seen, because the film does not allow the hesitation to disappear; thus, the fantastic does not enter the 'uncanny' genre or 'marvelous' genre, and because it keeps its fantastic state. In this case, the labyrinth symbolizes art as a passage into the fantastic world and a space that represents it. Rosemary Jackson saw the fantasy as a "literature of desire to compensate for a lack resulting from cultural constraints" and thus repeatedly dealing with unconscious materials. Del Toro's film shows the character of the fantastic as an expression of desire by allowing 'family romance' to take place in the fantastic world. In this case, the labyrinth symbolizes the mind as a place of desire. Kathryn Hume defined fantasy as a reaction to reality, like mimesis, and 'departure from consensus reality.' The film, operating in a 'vision' genre, satisfies its definition by allowing the fantastic world to illuminate the reality world through 'contrastive' technique, and brings out the fantastic it has. In this case, the labyrinth symbolizes the world as a mirror of the world of reality. Thus, Pan's Labyrinth is representative of fantastic film in that the fantastic functions very effectively, and the labyrinth appearing in this film can be evaluated as a motif that is full of meaning by symbolizing all three elements of art, world and mind. The significance of this paper is to shed light on how a motif works in a particular genre through the above considerations.

Animation fascinates people. Fascination can be defined as a state in which one's attention is irresistibly taken and remains that way even though he/she gains nothing from the object. The power of fascination of animation comes from the fact that the illusion in animation looks as convincing as the reality. In order to successfully fascinate spectators, animation should attract their eyes with visual sensation (confusion), and then quickly have them immersed into the narrative, the inner logic that rationalizes the confusion while the attraction lasts. Animation fascinates us with both visual sensation and narrative, and this fascination is the reason why we keep making animation in spite of the extra efforts it requires. Our fascination to animation is a eulogy to the fantasy so convincing that makes our perception discords with our reason.

The film has always reflected the culture of the era based on reality and imagination. The visual effect in the film has mainly played a role of expressing the reality more realistically or recognizing the virtual as reality. This study examines the meaning and the effect of fantasy realism through Oasis of Lee Chang-dong. Fantastic realism has separated the reality from the imaginary space by using a dual meaning tool that affects the time and space in the film and reflects the human desire and desire to see. It was also reproduced in the real world through the medium of pigeons. In addition, it separates visualized space from non-visualized space in film narrative structure, separation of real and unreal space, segregation of consciousness and unconscious space, and separation of reality and reality space into power structure. With the development of technology, the image of the yellow image comes closer to us like reality, which will express the space of unconsciousness that we could not think of.

'환상'이란 현실에 대한 전복적인 기능을 하는 비현실적인 것이다. 서양에서는 이것을 'Fantasy'라고 하고, 고전소설에서는 '신이(神異), 기이(奇異), 괴이(怪異)'와 같은 한자어가 주로 사용되었다. <박씨전>은 인물, 사건, 배경에서 환상성이 드러난다. 이 논문에서는 <박씨전>의 환상성을 활용하여 문화콘텐츠의 원형적 소재로 활용할 수 있는 가능성을 검토해보았다.

디지털 테크놀로지의 발달에 따라 디지털게임은 지속적으로 그표현의 가능성을 넓혀왔다. 현실에서촬영할 수없는 많은 장면들이 디지털모핑(morphing)을 통해 영화의 환상적인 장면들을 대체하고 있는 경우만 보더라도 디지털기술은 이미지를 통해 표현할 수있는 한계를 극복하고 있는것이다. 불과 20년전만 하더라도 디지털게임은 현실세계에서 통용 되는 놀이들을 컴퓨터의 연산과 간단한 그래픽을 통해 상징적으로 재현한 수준에 머물렀지만, 최근 들어서는 소설이나 영화보다 더욱 방대한 데이터베이스를 갖춘 가상공간의 세계를 만들어 가고 있다.

환상이란 현실생활의 단조로움이나 좌절을 극복하고 실생활의 한계를 뛰어넘어 인간이 꿈구는 무한대의 미지세계로 안내해주는 역할을 한다. 우리가 성적 환상을 통해 고품질의 성적교류를 나누고 이것을 통해 부부간의 인연을 굳게 다질 수만 있다면 오히려 1가구 1주택의 계율을 강요하는 하느님의 의도에 합치되는 일 아닌가?
