The expression of natural backgrounds in a digital clip such as forest, water and sky break new ground and evolve. The process of arriving at a certain background style and designing belongs to the pre-production stage of animation produuction. Due to the advancement of CG technology, the production and consumption of animation has accelerated and so in an effort to reduce production time, the natural background has increasingly becomme normalised. For the distinction in contents, narrative and characters are emphasized in pre-production since it is believed that the background design will simply be a still image. However, there is a need to focus on background design as it is a tool that can effectively emphasize the narrative. This research is an analysis of the background design's role in forest background in productions such as "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"(1951) and "Princess Mononoke"(1997). It details how appropriate each background forest was for the artist's intent using the 7 types of forest landscapes according to dendrology.

This study was conducted focusing on the role of auteurism animation. The purpose of auteurism animation is to criticize irregularities of a society in witty and fierce way through satires from the sharp perspectives of a animator that is not bound by tastes of people or the interests or standpoints of specific groups, and thus to induce positive changes in a society as a purifier. In the context, this study investigated satires shown in by Jan Svankmajer and by Norman Mclaren among the animators who utilize animation as a tool to produce social meaning. As a result, the following characteristics and meanings were found. First, Dimensions of Dialogue is an animation that satires absurdity and irregularities of a human society in symbolic and exceptional way through directing by segmentations of images and omnibus structures. The satire carries the lesson of improvement in the hidden part of cynical attack to history, society, and human beings. It also maximizes absolute reality and engagement of images of Jan Svankmajer through unique and grotesque images of the animator such as alienated world, confusing shapes, and amusement of irregularities. Second, the movie, is an exemplary animation that applied core concept of animation through pixilation techniques based on an event story structure by causal relationship. It satires the changing process of a good man to violent madness through confrontation and conflicts for material desires, with exaggerated slipstick movements and humors as a black comedy. The satire methods of both animation works are delivered through unique image styles and symbolic wordage of the animators who triggered ironical laughter in attacking humanism and moral insensitivity that might be felt seriously otherwise. That is, the animators try to show the positive will for changing the society to a sound one through the form of negativity in terms of moral perspective in animation rather than destruction against the target. As such, the satires in both works worked as an auteurism allegory that maximizes social functions and artistic influence of animation.

The computer has become an indispensable tool for animation works. However if you don't understand the characteristics of the computer and its software, you might not have the result satisfying your efforts. The incorrect understanding of image format sometimes causes it. Habitually image formats are selected usually for most of works but there is a distinct difference among those image formats while the efficient usages of them are different from each other. For your more efficient work therefore, you need to identify the characteristics of various kinds of image format used mostly for animation works. First I took a look at the theories of the lossy compression and lossless compression, which are two types of data compression widely used in the whole parts of computer world and the difference between bitmap method and vector method, which are respectably different in terms of the way of expressing images and finally the 24 bit true color and 8 bits alpha channel. Based on those characteristics, I have analyzed the functional difference among image formats used between various types of animation works such as 2D, 3D, composing and editing and also the benefits and weakness of them. Additionally I've proved it is wrong that the JPEG files consume a small space in computer work. In conclusion, I suggest the TIF format as the most efficient format for whatever it is editing, composing, 3D and 2D in considering capacity, function and image quality and also I'd like to recommend PSD format which has compatibility and excellent function, since the Adobe educational programs are used a lot for the school education. I hope this treatise to contribute to your right choice of image format in school education and practical works.

In this paper, the animated simulation system (Anisim) is proposed in order to develope an efficient functional system verification tool. It displays the simulation results of the designed system using graphic animation with various models lot the target system. With simple interface definitions given by the user, Anisim generates interface codes automatically. Users can describe and model the target system with the generated interface codes. Since the simulation engine is implemented in C-language, modeling is very simple and simulation can be performed in real time.

컴퓨터 그래픽스에서 인간의 얼굴 표정을 생성하는 것은 고전적인 주제중의 하나이다. 따라서 관련된 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔지만 대부분의 연구들은 특정 모델을 이용한 얼굴 표정 애니메이션을 제공하였다. 이는 얼굴 표정에는 얼굴 근육 정보 및 부수적인 정보가 필요하고 이러한 정보는 3D 얼굴 모델에 종속되기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 일반적인 3D 얼굴 모델에 근육을 설정하고 기타 정보를 편집하여, 다양한 3D 얼굴모델에서 표정 애니메이션이 가능한 도구를 제안한다.

Web-based instruction is being developed as a new study model getting out of the traditional standardized education method. It is a new education tool which promotes learner-centered and cooperative study. Flash, as one of the most powerful web authoring tool can maximize the effectiveness of learning using computer graphic, animation, sounds and video. In this paper, we will look at developing and distributing education materials using flash and the efficient web-based instructions.

In early stages of film or animation production, storyboard is used to visually describe the outline of a story. Drawings or photographs, as well as the texts, are employed for character / item placements and camera pose. However, commercially available storyboard tools are mainly drawing and editing tools, not providing functionality for item placement and camera control. In this paper, an Augmented Reality based storyboard tool is presented, which provides an intuitive and easy-to-use interface for storyboard development. Using the presented tool, non-expert users may compose 30 scenes in his or her real environments through tangible building blocks which are used to fetch corresponding 3D models and their pose.

Tube expanding process is for combining a heat-sink plate with hair-pins (Cu-tube) through plastic deformation. The two parts, i. e. , heat-sink plate and hair-pins are they components of a heat-exchanger for an air conditioner. This paper presents the analysis and dynamic modeling of a high-speed tube expander which integrates transfer of parts, fixing of parts, and tube expanding into one process. The 3-dimensional modeling of all the parts for the tube-expander was constructed using CATIA$\circledR$. then the CATIA$\circledR$ models are transferred into visuaINastran$\circledR$ to execute the 3-dimensional animation for checking prescribed cycle-time. The technique presented in this paper has been shown to be effective as a priori tool for verifying the design of a high-speed tube expander.

As the LED or LCD technology has been developed, if we use LED or LCD pannel, more wide color range coluld be obtained as CRT monitor. Specially, full color LED display is developed by high brightness blue LED. It can be applicable to display pannel with a long-life, wide visible angle and high brightness. A display pannel shows the images of CRT monitor performed by the main computer. Graphic application in the main computer is therefore more important in the market. Conventional 3D STUDIO, one of graphic softwares, has difficulties in manipulating and understanding the specific terminology so that one may need more time to learn it. We, therefore, developed graphic application which can recycle the conventional 3D images by creating or editing the image easily.
