The game is in progress according to the game story with the text, graphic, animation, motion picture, music, etc. Also the result of the game varies depending on the strategy and tactics of the player. For the development of the game, this paper describes the task of the game planner, game programmer, and game graphic designer. Game graphic designers are classified into 4 parts such as the art director, original picture designer, 2D designer, and 3D designer. Among these, the 3D designer makes the 3D game characters with the use of 3D tools. This paper presents the method that 3D designers and beginners can develop 3D characters easily and quickly, Also, this paper shows the method for making preparations of SourceModel which includes 150 polygons. The SourceModel is made up of between five life size and eight life size. In addition, Character Primitives Interface is made to use SourceModel in MaxScript. Accordingly 3D designers have the free use of SourceModel and they will be able to save time.

Computer animation is tile most advanced composite art to apply image, sound to the theme, Domestic technique is improved but still lacks creativity and content in theinternational market. In this paper, I'll notify the importance of planning and introduce narrative animation to produce their own style of animation. A successful career in the digital animation industry requires more than just technical expertise. It also demands creative mastery, a sense of wonder and boundless imagination. This unique hands-on program combines traditional, creative and technical skills and develops digital artists, not software technicians. Especially, people involved in the industry shouldrecognize a special quality of narrative animation in today's 3D animation and game- saturated climate. Therefore, they are able to create a new form of high-quality animation. It will be expected to promote digital animation education with a new index.

In this paper, we propose 3D cloud animation by cloud modeling method of 2D images retrieved from a meteorological satellite. First, on the satellite images, we locate numerous control points to perform thin-plate spline warping analysis between consecutive frames for the modeling of cloud motion. In addition, the spectrum channels of visible and infrared wavelengths are used to determine the amount and altitude of clouds for 3D cloud image reconstruction. Pre-integrated volume rendering method is used to achieve seamless inter-laminar shades in real-time using small number of slices of the volume data. The proposed method could successfully construct continuously moving 3D clouds from 2D satellite images at an acceptable speed and image quality.

In this paper, we implemented cyber character that can do speech recognition, speech synthesis, Motion tracking and 3D animation. For speech recognition, we used Discrete-HMM algorithm with K-means 128 level vector quantization and MFCC feature vector. For speech synthesis, we used demi-syllables TD-PSOLA algorithm. For PC based Motion tracking, we present Fast Optical Flow like Method. And for animating 3D model, we used vertex interpolation with DirectSD retained mode. Finally, we implemented cyber character integrated above systems, which game calculating by the multiplication table with user and the cyber character always look at user using of Motion tracking system.

In domestic game market, the video game market is getting smaller and also decreasing funds and high level developers. So we need the software that can help us to make more realistic and high quality contents by non-expert developer in poor environments. In this paper, we selected global studio's animations which were scored good evaluation by public and critics as a well-made emotional expression that can convey the emotion properly. We selected movements that express emotions from the animation scripts by using Ekman's 6 basic emotions and Greimas' dynamic predicate, and then we had analyzed and categorized with the data. We also analyzed the movements for which data we needed to create specific movements to express emotions by using 'Animation Layer' that used in Unity's blending process. And suggest concept of the program that to create the emotional expression movements by using those analyzed data.

The industry of digital culture contents has resulted in the high growth of added value at the area of game and movie in 2004 but the markets of animation character, and music disc have been weaken. Animation industries in Digital culture contents have attracted the attention of the people as the business of multi culture contents which has the possibility to expend and to enhance the added value nut only for the field of image and character business but also for the area of the copy right on. The stable structure of market, however, has not been settked down except a few of successful projects due to the rapid decline of 2D animation and the strong market of 3D in overseas. The purpose of this study is to analyze and research the basic logic of the market structure at the domestic business of 3D animation. In addition this paper is to suggest an alternative in terms of benchmarkin in overseas. It could be expected to achieve the effective production in this field, if the result of this study could be applied to the related world as a development model at the area of 3D animation in digital culture contents.

Third Person Action Game is a genre receiving continuous interest from many game enthusiasts. The most distinctive feature about third person action games is that the user can actually see the character as well as the various actions, which in turn increases user engagement. Many games are developed using game engines. However, this study designs a third person action game using only DirectX library instead of the specialized techniques in game engines. By doing so, the game development costs will be minimalized. The study also uses several basic algorithms in order to process the various events and to make the animation effects more efficiently managed in the graphic device. The performance superiority is demonstrated by the results of the study.

Promotion and marketing, which are essential to lower the investment risk and maximize commercial profit in the video game market. Game developers and publishers set up public relations strategies to encourage potential consumers' needs. Considering characteristics of video game, the trailer, which is the animated image advertisement material, could occupy a key position in its promotion and marketing plan. Cinematic spectacles and attractive narratives are essential ingredients for game trailers, which are usually produced in 3D animation. Dead Island is an open world first person shooters (FPS) game released in 2011. When launched, it grabbed a great attention with a trailer, awarded the Golden Lion Prize for the best internet film at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. The game was a commercial success and several spin-offs were producted. In 2014, its publisher, Deep Silver showed the official trailer of Dead Island 2 at Electronic Entertainment Expo, the world's largest game show. Dead Island 2 was scheduled to be released in 2016, but has been now delayed until 2018. This study compares and analyzes two trailers of Dead Island 1 and Dead Island 2. We examine the narrative structure of the trailer for the sequel promotion of a successful game. The differences between the two could be useful for building a promotion strategy of other game series.

This paper proposes the framework of the scenario-based 3D image synthesizing system that allows common users who envision a scenario in their mind to realize it into the segments of cool animation. We focused on utilization of the existing motions to synthesize new motions for the objects. The framework is useful to build a 3D animation in game programming with a limited set of 3D objects. We also propose a practical algorithm to reuse and expand the objects. This algorithm is based on motion path modification rules. Both linear and nonlinear curve-fitting algorithms were applied to modify an animation by key frame interpolation and to make the motion appear realistic.
