Research On Narrative Design Of Mobile Interactive Animation

With the popularity of mobile devices such as mobile phones,the user experience of mobile devices has become more and more important.Interactive animation can improve the user experience of mobile devices in many ways.Therefore,designing interactive animation has gradually become a necessary skill for designers.So how to ensure that junior designers can design interactive animations to accurately express interactive information and interactive logic,and make it easy for users to understand the information,has become a subject worthy of research.Narrative is a traditional communication activity.It is a relatively flexible way of transmitting information,which makes it easier for users to understand and accept information.Based on such advantages,narratology theory has been introduced into many disciplines,including the field of interaction design.This article focuses on the relationship between narrative and animation design,introduces narrative thinking into the design of interactive animation,and uses the relatively mature theoretical system of narration to help improve the animation design process.On the one hand,it improves the experience effect of interactive animation and provides new ideas for animation design.On the other hand,it provides some practical experience for the application of story thinking in user experience.This article first summarizes the relevant theories of interactive animation and narrative.Starting from the nature of the two,the two are initially linked together,and the narrative nature,narrative style and positive role of interactive animation are studied in multiple dimensions and levels,forming the basic theory of interactive animation narrative in this paper.Next,analyze the differences between the interactive animation narrative mode and other media narrative modes from a holistic perspective,and then use the relevant narrative theory as a framework to analyze the design elements of the animation.Analyze the rules of interactive animation narrative from six narrative elements,including characters,environment,plot,narrative trigger,narrative time,and narrative rhythm,and confirm it through disassembly analysis of examples.Then,based on the analysis of the narrative design elements and the collation of the existing design methods,it summarizes the interactive animation narrative design method,including design investigation,narrative relationship establishment,scene space,element definition,plot construction,trigger design and time rhythm design.Finally,the Color OS system is used as an example to carry out design practice,show the specific design process,and prove the usability of the design method.
