Hayao Miyazaki Animation Film’s Storybord Study

There is no doubt Japan has become the first animation country in Asia with therapid development in the past century. As a pioneer of Japanese animation, HayaoMiyazaki has created a lot of blockbusters which can be comparable with Americancartoons. This paper selects ten classic animation directed by Hayao Miyazakianimated cinema as the research objects, which record each video camera elementsassociated with the sub-lens design, including the film’s units and a tie such as scene,depth of field, viewpoint, perspective, seats, axis, connecting lens, camera movement.At the same time, this paper counts each element’s proportion in the full-film. Bysetting default values, analyzes the scope of this ratio dependent, then gets the lawof every element’s application proportion according to the scope to provide atheoretical reference data for today’s animation scholars and enthusiasts when theydraw of the lens. The research method is as follows:(1)An overview of the research background of the lens:This chapter is dividedinto three sections, which describes the status of the lens’ research background,research significance, and the second section describes from two aspects of currentexisting research results at home and abroad for Hayao Miyazaki’s research status andresearch on sub-lens to prove the originality of this study and the necessity. The thirdsection of this study proves to outline the overall layout of this article, including themain research contents, the innovation.(2)From the spatial relationship of lens design, taking scene lens, depth offield as the research object, conducts a statistical analysis for10animationsdirected by Hayao Miyazaki:Firstly, the paper conducts statistical classification forscene, depth of field, then divides into five major scene series,10sub-mirrorrespectively. The depth of field is divided into three categories, then the paperstatistics for each shot, scene, depth of field types, and makes records. Secondly thispaper statistics total amount of various scenes and depth of field, and calculates itsusage in the film, then gets the using types of different scenes and depth of fieldwhich be used in Hayao Miyazaki’s films. By default, this study determines the size ofeach class using scope. Through the analysis of the data derivation, gets the valid datawhich can be referenced by sub-lens carvers.(3)Starting from the composition of the lens, taking the angle of the lens, axis and position as the research object, conducts a statistical analysis for10animations directed by Hayao Miyazaki: According to the different principles ofcameras positions, angles, the axis,10animations directed by Hayao Miyazaki areclassified into different types in positions, angles, and the axis, and goes on the lensrecords, then counts total amount to get the using scope of various elements. Finally,by default, this paper delineates proportional range size. Through the research ofAnimation lens’ composition, this study provides an effective data reference for theuse of the positions of the lens, the angle and the axis.(4)Starting from the connection between the lens (transitions) and themovement pattern, conducts a statistical analysis for10animations directed byHayao Miyazaki:Starting from the lens movement pattern, this paper counts theusing size of the each approach’s using proportion in films. By default, draws a rangeof various acting lenses relating with the connection between lens, researches theusing proportion of skillful connection and non-skillful connection, and the specificuse of empty lens. Finally, by the data analysis of the movement pattern and transitionof the animation lens, we get the effective reference data.(5)According to data from research, carries out lens’ practice creation andproves its accuracy:Through the using statistical analysis of the lens elements inthe10animations directed by Hayao Miyazaki, this paper analyzes the concepts,characteristics and the function of the various elements, and obtains effectivereference data. According to the analysis of the obtained data, this paper explores theusing rules and methods of the lens’various elements used into the practicing creationto confirm the validity of the research.(6)Concludes the paper, collates the results of the study:The research resultscan provide valuable reference documents for Chinese animation companies, collegesand universities animation professionals and the majority of animation enthusiastswhen they draw shooting, animation movies.
