2D/3D Integrated Representation And Application For Watercolor Rendered Animation

As a strongly stylized form of artistic expression,watercolor animation has won the love of audiences of all ages around the world with its unique charm of blending water and color,hazy and transparent.The rapid development of animation digital technology has given watercolor animation a huge space for development in production methods and artistic expression.In recent years,with the improvement of the audience’s aesthetic level,various excellent works that break the boundaries of dimensionality and combine creative thinking with novelty in two-dimensional and three-dimensional have emerged one after another,combining the unique artistic charm of two-dimensional with the dynamic visual stimulation of three-dimensional to bring to the audience.An unprecedented sensory experience.Therefore,in watercolor animation,a two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion design is tried in order to form a new animation design form that integrates artistry and technology.This research focuses on the two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion design of watercolor animation.First of all,based on the in-depth study of the color,texture,line and other visual expressions of watercolor animation,the visual characteristics of watercolor animation are systematically combed,and the integrated interdisciplinary method is used to analyze the bottleneck problems faced by the two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion design.Secondly,based on the visual language of animation,using case analysis,combined with hand-painted texture,single-line flat coating,virtual light and shadow,three-dimensional rendering and other forms of expression,discuss the modeling,light color,and two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion design expression of the lens in the watercolor animation.Method,through the systematic analysis of lines,color blocks,brushstrokes,light and shadow,depth of field construction,lens movement,etc.,a framework system of two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion expression of watercolor animation is constructed.Then,using the fusion design theory constructed in the early stage as a guide,using practical research methods,using the two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion in watercolor animation and the spatial movement of the three-dimensional camera as the highlight,a personal graduation design short film "Grandpa’s Tea Garden" was produced.In terms of creative conception,script splitting,modeling design,light color design,lens design,etc.,using the two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion design expression method of watercolor animation,the creation of watercolor animation short films shows the practical value of fusion performance.Finally,combined with the theoretical construction and creative practice of this research,analyze and summarize,and discuss the future development direction and expectations of the artistic and technical aspects of two-dimensional and three-dimensional fusion animation.
