컴퓨터 그래픽의 발달로 3D 애니메이션은 시각적 리얼리티와 화려한 영상미로 애니메이션 특유의 비현실적인 상황과 허구적 캐릭터가 주는 재미를 관객에게 전한다. 특히 캐릭터의 얼굴 표정은 관객과의 감정 소통과 의사전달에 중요한 정보로서 디테일한 연기를 필요로 한다. 이에 3D 애니메이션 캐릭터의 경우 페이셜에 다양한 기능들이 요구되며, 일반적인 블렌드 쉐입과 클러스터 외에도 만화적 표현을 위한 다양한 기술들이 사용된다. 기존의 공정 과정에는 한 페이셜에 이러한 모든 기능들이 접목되어 복잡하며 까다로운 페이셜 리깅 공정이 이뤄진다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 공정들에서 한정되게 사용되었던 블렌드 쉐입을 이용하여 다양한 기능들을 타겟팅하는 레이어 방식을 통해 효율적인 페이셜 리깅 공정을 연구하고자 한다.

This study is a model of research for the developing 3D character contents about facial expression as a sort of non-linguistic signs, focusing on an expression of emotion factors of a person. It contributes a framework for symbolic analysis about Human's emotions along with a general review of expression. The human face is the most complex and versatile of all species. For humans, the face is a ich and versatile instrument serving many different functions. It serves as a window to display one's own motivational state. This makes one's behavior more predictable and understandable to others and improves communication. The face can be used to supplement verbal communication. A prompt facial display can reveal the speaker's attitude about the information being conveyed. Alternatively, the face can be used to complement verbal communication, such as lifting of eyebrows to lend additional emphasis to stressed word. The facial expression plays a important role under the digital visual context. This study will present a frame of facial expression categories for effective manufacture of cartoon and animation that appeal to the visual emotion of the human.

The present study investigated whether the emotional states reading ability through facial expression changes by age(3-, 5-year-old and university student groups), sex(male, female), facial expression's presenting areas(face, eyes) and the type of emotions(basic emotions, complex emotions). 32 types of emotional state's facial expressions which are linked relatively strong with the emotional vocabularies were used as stimuli. Stimuli were collected by taking photographs of professional actors facial expression performance. Each individuals were presented with stories which set off certain emotions, and then were asked to choose a facial expression that the principal character would have made for the occasion presented in stories. The result showed that the ability of facial expression reading improves as the age get higher. Also, they performed better with the condition of face than eyes, and basic emotions than complex emotions. While female doesn't show any performance difference with the presenting areas, male shows better performance in case of facial condition compared with eye condition. The results demonstrate that age, facial expression's presenting areas and the type of emotions effect on estimation of other people's emotion through facial expressions.

흔히 애니메이션은 캐릭터의 표정이 얼굴에만 나타난다고 생각한다. 하지만 캐릭터의 몸도 얼굴만큼이나 풍부하게 감정을 표현할 수 있다. 이에 따라 본 논문에는 캐릭터 움직임에 따른 동작이 어떻게 변화되고, 생동감 있게 움직일 것인가에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 애니메이션의 기본 동작원리에는 스쿼시, 스트레치, 동작의 속도와 타이밍, 관성, 선행동작, 포물선 따라 움직이기, 인비트위닝 등 많은 것이 있다. 이들 기본동작들은 모두 애니메이션 성공에 크게 영향을 끼친다. 애니메이션에서 캐릭터의 연기는 보는 사람들로 하여금 필요한 동작을 통하여 어떤 표현을 전달할 수 있도록 올바른 타이밍을 가져야한다. 본 논문은 애니메이션 동작을 표현하기 위해 각각의 이미지들의 표현방법에서 감성위주의 느낌들을 어떻게 보여줘야 할 것인가에 대해 다양한 표현들로 나타내었다.

A close-up shot, capturing all the fine details of an actor's face by filling up the frame, expresses an actor's performance more realistically than a stage where a living actor performs on. This is because a close-up generates an impact with its specific images and meanings seizing the attention of the audience and conjures up a psychological effect as if an actor's face is directly communicating with the audience at a minimum distance. Therefore, this study analyzed the film to examine the photographic effect and acting effect of close-up shots and recommend the need for acting training thereof. The film was selected since Song Kang-ho, to add more realism to his character acted going back and forth 20 years of age with a special makeup on face, his facial expressions, gestures, props in close-up successfully helped deliver the actor's performance by revealing the character's personality and emotions of the film, and generated an array of linguistic, visual and emotional meanings which are the key to film acting. This study is expected to contribute to helping actors to learn about the effect of close-ups and the key to film acting and find effective ways to express themselves in front of the camera.

In this paper, a database is collected for extending the speech synthesis model to a model that synthesizes speech according to emotions and generating facial expressions. The database is divided into male and female data, and consists of emotional speech and facial expressions. Two professional actors of different genders speak sentences in Korean. Sentences are divided into four emotions: happiness, sadness, anger, and neutrality. Each actor plays about 3300 sentences per emotion. A total of 26468 sentences collected by filming this are not overlap and contain expression similar to the corresponding emotion. Since building a high-quality database is important for the performance of future research, the database is assessed on emotional category, intensity, and genuineness. In order to find out the accuracy according to the modality of data, the database is divided into audio-video data, audio data, and video data.

This paper is a study of Gustav Deutsch's film (2013). The film transformed the painting of Edward Hopper into an homage film. So it gives the impression that the picture is moving. In this regard, it raises the issue of 'remediation' between film and pictures. In this study, We ask how (2013) dealt with the movement in turning Hopper's paintings into movies. To that end, To this end, we look at two aspects of movement: the actor's movement and the screen's movement. The concepts of "tableau vivant," Agamben's gesture and mediation were used in the process. The actor's movement in the film is not an act of making and developing events. It is a gesture that moves a person's body and expression itself. It is not a story-oriented acting, but a gesture that Giorgio Agamben said. Editing and camera movements are used while maintaining frontality. This suggests that the movement of the screen is the eye of the audience. At first glance, it embodies the voyeuristic gaze of the original work. However, But the audience isn't looking at the image unilaterally, as in mainstream fiction films, but they are also being seen by that image. Also, the camera's movement to take a closer look at the details of the screen shows the movement itself rather than the means to reveal the details. The 'vision of reality' in a film is made through movement. The film questions the vision of reality between painting and film, between words and images. The move is a means of mediating reality, but the film is regaining the "lost gesture" that Giorgio Agamben once said by revealing its mediated nature. This tells us that the vision of reality appears when it obscures its mediated nature.
