Numerous studies have attempted to present converting 2D drawings to 3D. However, converting 3D shapes to exactly how a person thinks is challenging because 2D drawings include numerous variables and possibilities. This study focuses on visualizing 2D to 3D in a commonly used 3D animation software required in animation education or the 3D industry. We implemented our SketchTo3D tool to add the editing and automatic texture assigning method from the imported 2D image into the 3D software that previously had to be done manually. As a result, the SketchTo3D tool saves time to immediately visualize the composition, shape, and volume to express the 3D character, providing an opportunity to break down the barrier between 2D and 3D.

Traditional music education for infants is the most important step of forming human knowledge. Since their rapid development of intelligence and emotion has an educational value not only it improves the human knowledge but also it makes infants understand the unique emotion of Korean people. Under the several circumstances, however, we have no enough contents for traditional music education. Thus, by researching and analyzing the existing educational contents and complementing them properly for multimedia environment as a form of animation, we perform a series of experiments to infants who are attending to the kindergarten with interactive animations which are familiar with infants. Infants become interested in the contents and after the lesson of the short bamboo flute content, they show the clear improvements for the playing on a musical instrument. This proves that the Korean music educational content realized with animation can be an alternative plan to improve the educational effect by causing enjoyment and interest of infants.

From 1949 to 1966, after the new China was established, in order to consolidate newborn regime and erect national image, "proletariat revolutionary education" had become the main way of literary and artistic creation in the new era. In this era, Chinese animation began to produce to form the characteristics of emphasizing the ideological expression and political education from 1949 to1966, but it also made people misunderstand that it was the results of comprehensive containment of Soviet literary thoughts and creative models. In fact, Regardless of the subject matter, narrative, and role, Chinese animations have inherited and developed the ideological characteristics of the "Mun-yi-jae-do" literary view, forming a creative style that is different from the Soviet "dogmatism." The characteristics of "revolutionary hero role", "mythological expression of revolutionary thought" and "unique storytelling narrative mode" in Chinese animation from 1949 to 1966 were the inheritance and development of the "hero role", "mythological story", and "art of storytelling" of the important expression means of traditional art creation after the establishment of the "Mun-yi-jae-do".

Realistic facial animation research field which communicates with human and computer using face has increased recently. The human face is the part of the body we use to recognize individuals and the important communication channel that understand the inner states like emotion. To provide the intelligent interface. computer facial animation looks like human in talking and expressing himself. Facial modeling and animation research is focused on realistic facial animation recently. In this article, we suggest the method of facial modeling and animation for realistic facial synthesis. We can make a 3D facial model for arbitrary face by using generic facial model. For more correct and real face, we make the Korean Generic Facial Model. We can also manipulate facial synthesis based on the physical characteristics of real facial muscle and skin. Many application will be developed such as teleconferencing, education, movies etc.

In this study, we have suggested a method to create 3D animation based on STL files which are easily available on the internet using Blender, which is one of the most popular open-source 3D modeling SW. And the procedure of making 3D animation using STL file was compared with those for OBJ or FBX files as well. Contrary to OBJ and FBX, STL files do not contain information regarding hierarchy, material and texture which are very important in making 3D animation. Especially the absence of hierarchy may cause serious problems in rigging, which involves movement of unwanted parts of 3D object during rigging process. It is demonstrated that the weight painting feature of Blender could be a solution to tackle the faulty rigging due to attributes of STL files. The effect of the sampling frequency and the resolution on the rendering time is also investigated with respect to the 3D mantis animation. It is also seen that insect models by 3D printer could be used as a new type of pedagogical material in the elementary science education.

The purpose of this study is to find out the problems related to the lack of research on rapidly changing digital information media and industry flow and to suggest solutions. In Korea what is needed is basic academic research on cartoon and animation field, and the development and systemization of teaching material. As a first step to achieve this goal, standardization of cartoon and animation related terminology and publication of a dictionary of terminology are underway. To reach agreements on terms, discover new terms, standardize terms and their interpretations, and publish a standardized dictionary, experts in the fields of cartoon and animation education, industry, and academia in North America, Europe, and Japan have been invited to work together. Through these efforts, a dictionary of terminology will be published, which will not only provide useful information but also solve problems related to the use of not standardized terms.

The earthquake education is the area that students have few opportunities to experience directly in elementary school earth science course. Therefore, I have developed an animation module to make students learn about earthquake efficiently satisfying students's interests and characteristics. I have planned to get the effective learning result by teaching 35 elementary students, using the developed module designed for ICT teaching and learning. The result of this study is that the animation module class gives students opportunity and develop students' attitudes towards earth science.

This work aims to derive data-based requirements by analyzing the importance and performance of media literacy in early childhood animations. For this, a survey was conducted on parents with young children after drawing questions of assessment items through expert focus group interviews (FGI). The analytical instruments, Borich Needs Formula formulation and The Locus for Focus Model were used together to improve accuracy. Based on the results, it is meaningful in that it recognized the demand of the inmates for children's education animation and prepared systematic indicators for it.

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.
