As animation industry continues to evolve in China, the demand for excellent manpower is on the increase. However, there is a difficulty in cultivating practical talents because many colleges and universities in China do not have the systematized animation education. This study compares the curriculum for animation major in Korea and China in order to find out the major problems and the improvement plans of animation education in China. It was shown that the curriculum in China mainly consisted of the subjects to learn technical skills and lacked the subjects to enhance students' creativity. Especially, universities in China did not offer the practice environment in which students apply and utilize what they learned. As a result, students had less opportunity to experience creative process of making animation. In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to make the balanced basic curriculum, link the practice courses with the creativity courses, develop the specialized learning methods and provide the training opportunities through industry-university cooperation. The results of this study suggest that good quality animation education is an important element for universities and animation industry to continue to prosper together.

Developing curriculum in the field of illustration is the main purpose of this study. During the past 30 years, illustration industry has achieved remarkable success in South Korea. Moreover the trends in styles are various today. Aspiring Korean illustrators were awarded prizes by authoritative international organization for their illustrated picture books lately. Regardless of achievement in the field of illustration, an adequate curriculum to educate illustrators was never developed. Facing the challenging circumstances of the 21th century, professors of illustration need to be specialized and they must study the ultimate curriculum of illustration. Since illustration is a visual language, the kernels of education for illustration are teaching the nature of visual communication, getting the objectivity of communicating and establishing a professional techniques for expression. Even though the basic formative arts training courses are fairly important to students who major in illustration, it is impossible to see the achievement with the current situation of curriculum. In order to make good products of illustration and competent illustrator, we must try to create education system which well-matched for an independent genre of illustration field. Besides 1 hope this study will be used as one of the teaching methods for the field of animation and cartoon as well as for the field of illustration.

The purpose of this study is to improve the standards for the animation education in '2011 Arts and Culture Education Standards: Cartoon and Animation'. Animation Education Standards has been developed by discussion about Arts and Culture Education, and by study of documents about animation, and by investigation about experimental recognition. And the study of domestic and foreign art education standards are reflected in these standards. These standards consist of seven categories reflecting various aspects of animation and each category is classified into five stages by age. This standard has two axes: seven categories by various aspects of animation and five stages by age, and it represents achievement requirement in animation learning. This study suggests that 'Animation Education Standards' has five features as below. First, it reflects the character of Animation as an independent subject. Second, it is studied on the basis of the framework of arts and culture education. Third, it provides basic achievement requirement, and it has no limitation in learning activities. Fourth, the achievement requirements of two or more categories can be applied simultaneously in real classroom; each category is set by themes of animation education. This study presents five methods to improve existing standard. First, independent standard for animation education must be developed. Second, categories must be established distinctly. Third, each categories and achievement requirement must reflect unique characteristic of animation. Fourth, the description of achievement requires must be systemized. Fifth, to help to adapt education standard, explanation about practical teaching and learning activities must be added. '2011 Art and Culture Education Standards: Cartoon and Animation' is important in that it is the first study that systemized animation education and presented pedagogical achievement requirements by suggesting achievement requirements for animation education by two axes -ages and categories. It will be very helpful in studying the animation education as a subject, and developing education programs, and teaching and learning in an actual class.

Animation is breathing life into drawings through motion. Animation is formed by the afterimage phenomenon, that is, deviation of sequential pictures in every frame makes a person possibly perceive it as a live video. Consequently, animation is mostly produced using traditional frame-by-frame methods. The study of relations on timing has been a major concern of animation theory. Nevertheless, issues of timing on production outcomes and effectiveness are mostly ignored. Special focus, analysis and leadership studies on timing are addressed on animatics. Creating better timing through animatics, that is writing movies, directing, scheduling and amending storyboard in pre-production stage, eventually shorten time to animation production. This research is centered on animatics as a cutting edge educational courses. This course will introduce students to the animation production skill and instructors to in-depth teaching points. One of the concepts that we want to go for is keeping animatics apart from mere storyboard. In conjunction with the animation theory, this research conducted under the focus of production of animatics will lead to more efficient way of education on animatics.

This paper attempts a close-reading of Michel Ocelot's short animation film, (1979), and proposes it as an available text in art appreciation class for young students. stimulates the students' attention and intellectual curiosity thanks to the exotic and fantastic atmosphere, beautiful mise en scene, and intriguing plot. Ocelot's technique of decoupage used in this film rejuvenates both the traditional folk art and Lotte Reiniger's early experiments in the history of animation film. Ocelot subverts the ideal of modern male adult subject as unique possessor of scientific knowledge and technology, by adopting a female figure and a young child, who is also female, as main characters. The imaginative and subversive power of animation contributes to creating posthuman beings beyond the homocentric figure of Vitruvian Man. The posthuman condition supposes that human beings have the equal relationship of continuum with not only other humans but also non-human beings like all living things and inanimate matters. In order to teach and learn the posthuman condition, it is necessary to conceive an interdisciplinary and integrated curriculum including art, science, philosophy, history, and social sciences. Animation film serves excellently as educational text for the integrated curriculum of the posthuman.
