I want to focus my thesis on the relationship between the boundaries of authenticity and animation.
In the process of making animation, we often take reality as a template and exaggerate the performance on the basis of reality. And with the development of 3D technology, our 3D animation is becoming more and more realistic, special effects and other aspects are becoming more and more realistic. However, sometimes realistic film and television works are not completely equal to the audience’s recognition, so I became curious about the relationship between the boundary of authenticity and animation, and wanted to explore further in this direction
I will discuss the boundaries of simulated reality through the 12 principles of animation and the Uncanny Valley Theory, and use 2d and 3d movies or cartoons as examples to describe them, such as Cat and Mouse and rango. The overall thesis framework is described in a chronological sequence from 2d to 3d
My key words are:
12 principles of animation, Uncanny Valley, 2d animation, 3d animation
