  • This study compared the Character Studio of 3ds Max and OpenGL to find an adequate modeling method of character animation to be used in motion analysis in the area of motor mechanics. The subject was one male golfer. We obtained the positional coordinates of marks needed by photographing the subject's golf swing motions. Because the method based on the Character Studio used meticulously designed character meshes, it enabled high.level animation but it took a long time in applying physique and demanded the repeated adjustment of each motion data. With the method based on OpenGL, a character completed once could be usable to almost every testee and desired program control was available, but because each character had to be created by making a computer program, it was hard to make characters delicately. Because the method using the Character Studio is actively studied not only in motor mechanics but also in many research areas, it is expected to be more usable in the near future. On the contrary, the method based on OpenGL is easily applicable and allows the convenient use of other mechanical data.

  • 오늘날 영화, 애니메이션, CF, 모션 그래픽, 게임 등 모든 영상 분야의 필수 tool로 3D 소프트웨어들이 자리 잡게 된 가장 큰 이유는, 각종 영상물을 제작하는데 있어서 여타 전통적인 방법(미니어처, 매트 페인팅, 실제 엑스트라 인원 동원 등)에 비해 적은 가격으로 훨씬 더 뛰어난 효과를 낼 수 있고, 시간 절약 및 공간의 제약을 받지 않는 다는 장점 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 게임, 애니메이션, 영화 등 각종 콘텐츠에서 거의 필수 요소로 여겨지는 3D 어플리케이션 중, 특히 많이 사용되는 3D 캐릭터 애니메이션의 효율적인 교육을 위하여 Inverse Kinematics 시스템의 특성을 분석하였다. 수많은 Inverse kinematics tool 중, 실무에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 시스템인 Bone, Character studio, Character Animation Toolkit을 중심으로 각 tool의 장단점을 비교 분석함으로써 한정된 시간에 많은 양을 가르쳐야 하는 대학교에 있어서 효율적인 교육을 위해 위 세 가지 Inverse Kinematics tool중 어떤 것을 취사, 선택하여 교육하는 것이 학생들에게 유리한지에 대한 분석결과를 제안하였다.

  • This study has analyzed the main works of Hayao Miyazaki, a great master of Japanese animation, and inquired into the internal and external feature of characters depicted in his works. The creation of animation character starts from non-being in the planning step and becomes an important medium which will contain the story and the subject of drama. Therefore it's possible to analogize what he intends to represent through the identity, role and external feature of characters appeared in Hayao Miyazaki's animation. As a result of analyzing these external features, the message pursued by Hayao Miyazaki shows diversified girl character unlike the existing one of Japanimation, the girl characters in his works are sometimes sexless, sometimes androgynous, but they take the role to show the intention of director and to settle matters through new femininity free from any frame. In addition, the story of drama and other components show that the Japanese-typed is being sublimated worldwide with fantasy world through oriental appearance of girl character and various color symbols.

  • A virtual studio is a new video production environment using interactive computer graphics and imaging media technology. The traditional chroma-keying with two-dimensional background is replaced by an advanced keying method with a dynamic computer-generated, three-dimensional background. We have developed a virtual studio system that is practical to use in the real production environment. It has not only essential features that are common among various commercial virtual studio systems, but also unique feature that help the producer to construct virtual studio sets and scenarios efficiently such as span graph, robust backup controller, and 3 dimensional character generator supporting all languages. Our virtual studio system was used in live broadcasting and proved that the system was practical enough. In this paper, we will introduce the structure and the major features of our system, called VdreamSet, and application examples to broadcasting.

  • Today, 3D softwares have become an essential tool in all areas of Video, including Movies, Animations, CFs, Motion Graphics and Games. One of the most commonly used fields is the 3D character video part. However, these 3D character animations and motion graphics softwares are difficult to learn and too much to learn, making it difficult to learn them all in a university education with a limited time of four years. In this paper, many Inverse kinematics tools, which are essential in the 3D character animations and motion graphics field, compare and analyze the strengths and weaknesses of each tool, focusing on Bone, Character Studio, and Character Animation Toolkit, which are most commonly used in work fields. And use Delphi techniques for 3D experts to secure objectivity. Therefore, for universities that require large amounts of teaching in a limited time, I propose an analysis of which of the above three Inverse Kinetics tools is advantageous for students to select and focus on for efficient education.

  • 오늘날 3D 캐릭터 애니메이션은 실사영화, 애니메이션, 게임, 광고 등 대다수의 영상물에서 쉽게 접할 수 있다. 하지만, 이러한 캐릭터의 부드러운 움직임은 모션캡쳐(Motion Capture)와 같은 고가의 장비를 통해 얻어진 데이터를 숙련된 애니메이터들이 오랜 시간 키 프레임(Key Frame)을 수정함으로써 얻어진다. 경우에 따라서는 애니메이터 개인의 감성적 기준에 따라 제작되어진 캐릭터의 행동이 관객들의 보편적 기대치와 다를 때도 있는데, 이것은 제작되어진 캐릭터의 행동과 관객들의 감성반응에 대한 객관적 관계식이 정립되지 못했기 때문이다. 3D 캐릭터의 걸음걸이를 대상으로 한 본 연구에서는 상기의 관계식 추출과 정립을 위한 실험장비로서 3D Studio MAX Script를 이용한 3차원 회전의 연산 툴을 제안한다. $2{\sim}3$개의 바이패드 데이터 수정과 합성을 주요기능으로 삼고 있는 이 툴을 통해 걸음걸이와 감성반응 사이의 정량적 관계식에 접근하기 위한 다양한 연구가 용이하게 되었다.

  • There are several way to classify the furniture. The furniture can be classified into use, style, and function, but if the furniture is classified into the way of production, it can be the industrial furniture and the studio furniture. Especially, technology and function of the furniture are important elements in industrial furniture. However, it could be considered artists' character and concept as more important elements in the studio furniture. The studio furniture had come out one of the historical movement in American furniture field after the World War II. This case to apply found objects began to increase after the 1970s. Using objects In furniture design field had built up sprightly after end of 1950s. This expression could be the statement of new expression that essential properties of matter in objects is removed. I try to suggest original and interesting furniture design to apply found objects in this thesis. Especially, I use the Korean traditional objects for the furniture and try to make their essential function to be changed. Also, I focus on furniture design to have formative element in their shapes.

  • In recent years, Unreal Engine has been increasingly included in the animation process produced in the studio. In this case, there will be more than one of main software, and it is very important to accurately transfer data between the software and Unreal Engine. In animation data, not only the animation data of the character but also the animation data of objects interacting with the character must be individually produced and transferred. Most of the objects that interact with the character have a condition of constraints with the part of character. In this paper, I tried to stipulate the production process for extracting animation data of constrained objects, and to analyze why users experience difficulties due to the complexity of the regulations in the process of executing them. And based on the flowchart prescribed for user convenience, I created a program using a Python script to prove the user's convenience. Finally, by comparing the results generated according to the manual flowchart with the results generated through the script command, it was found that the data were consistent.

  • This article takes the talk show "Beast Town" as an example to introduce the overall technical solution, technical difficulties and countermeasures for the combination of cartoon virtual characters and virtual studio technology, providing reference and experience for the multi-scenario application of digital humans. Compared with the live broadcast that combines reality and reality, we have further upgraded our virtual production technology and digital human-driven technology, adopted industry-leading real-time virtual production technology and monocular camera driving technology, and launched a virtual cartoon character talk show - "Beast Town" to achieve real Perfectly combined with virtuality, it further enhances program immersion and audio-visual experience, and expands infinite boundaries for virtual manufacturing. In the talk show, motion capture shooting technology is used for final picture synthesis. The virtual scene needs to present dynamic effects, and at the same time realize the driving of the digital human and the movement with the push, pull and pan of the overall picture. This puts forward very high requirements for multi-party data synchronization, real-time driving of digital people, and synthetic picture rendering. We focus on issues such as virtual and real data docking and monocular camera motion capture effects. We combine camera outward tracking, multi-scene picture perspective, multi-machine rendering and other solutions to effectively solve picture linkage and rendering quality problems in a deeply immersive space environment. , presenting users with visual effects of linkage between digital people and live guests.

  • This thesis explores the embodiment of a performer and a character/role specifically by examining what the term character is associated with and implies in a sense of the performer's bodily training through which what happens to their body. First of all, this research begins to investigate the relationship between a performer and a character centred on the performer's bodily experience through training and/or studio work. From a perspective of a performer, the concept and practical approach of a character itself essentially includes and signifies all the given circumstance of a specific play which has to be acknowledged then inhabited through the performer's body. That is, the internal structure of the text parallels with articulating and developing the spine of a specific character which take place as the substance leads the performer's body to an organic action and/or that of way corresponding to what the character needs and wants to obtain through a series of moment on stage. Here, we argue that the purposeful action as a process and result of applying/inhabiting the substance enhances the performer's body as the whole being participates in the given environment within which his/her body can also work or function by means of the integrated oneness. Second, in a manner of the most fundamental level, both the ethic of acting and the central task of a performer remind us the significance of allowing therefore experiencing subtle bodily movement, namely, responses to stimulus from in/outside of his/her body either visible or invisible on the one hand. At the same time, such a journey of self-discovery empowers the performer to explore new potential possibilities on the other. Finally, as the research finding suggests that these practical insights are necessarily need to be acknowledged as a point of the departure through which the quality of a performer's body is also cultivated by means of the changeable wholeness in order to being on stage.
