计算机三维动画的角色塑造初探

近年来，三维（3D）动画技术日趋成熟，三维动画电影的出现极大地丰富了动画艺术的表现语言。角色设计是一部三维动画成功的基础，而我国对于三维动画角色的设计还没有形成系统的认识。三维动画角色较之二维动画角色的差异就是计算机三维技术的运用，因此，三维动画角色就出现了自己独特的设计原则和角色动态造型规律。技术特性决定着三维动画角色塑造成功与否。

On Three-dimensional Characters Design with Computer Graphics

In recent years, three-dimensional（3D） animation technology has gradually matured, and 3D animation has greatly enriched the way of creating animated art. Charac- ter design is a basic component of successful 3D animation, although a systematic understanding of it hasn＇t yet devel- oped in China. This paper begins by introducing the tech- nological features of 3D animation. It goes on to compare the differences between 3D animated characters and 2D ani- mated characters, and demonstrates the principles of desig- ning 3D animated characters and the rules of their movement. The paper concludes by highlighting a series of technological elements related to shaping 3D animated charac- ters.
