The 13th issue: on the realistic semantics in animation

Animation, as an artistic expression of moving images, has its own conflict with reality. At the same time, it concentrates on deep observation of the real world, intuitively and maps two different expression angles to reality, and produces different styles of art works in two ways. Understanding the artistic creation mode of reality is a judgment of the future, This kind of human expectation of the future of reality in history is related to the artist's creative inspiration and passion.

For the choice of public venues and exhibits, curators and Venue Managers need to consider more about the selection of works and more colorful exhibition and presentation. They are all around reality, but they all seek expression of non realistic ways.

"Love beauty -- on Aesthetics" series of academic lectures

Most students who enter animation major generally know animation from TV animation, animation film or network animation they are interested in. In fact, animation involves a wide range of categories, and in terms of form alone, it is far beyond the general audience's cognition of it. The concept of animation is diverse: animation itself is an art, with ornamental and entertainment; For some artists, animation is also a means to lead to or realize their own artistic ideals. For example, animation participates in various avant-garde movements. It brings time dimension to painting or sculpture, and helps artists to think about the status of pictures from various levels. In addition, animation also plays a practical role in fields such as business, education, medicine, psychology and ideological propaganda, which records the times in its own language. Therefore, the original intention of the series of "love beauty" academic lectures is to help students to touch the three-dimensional shape of animation, which is an art category, and to establish a macro understanding of animation art.

Based on this original intention, the series of academic activities will invite experts from all fields, including independent animators, which will let the audience know their creative thinking deeply from the perspective of creators, and then better understand their works; There are writers and screenwriters - from the perspective of dramas, teachers and students can understand the relationship and transformation methods between literary works and film plays; Senior producers - through their introduction, teachers and students can understand the practical animation, commercial animation and the industrial operation mode of art animation from the perspective of production mode; There are sound Masters - through their practical experience, teachers and students can understand how excellent film and television works interpret abstract space outside image space by means of sound; There are painters - through their creation process, we can see the artists' artistic observation by means of animation; Psychologists and doctors - from their perspective, let us know the practical functions of animation, such as recording people's Internal observation by means of animation documentary; There are senior critics and literary critics - from the external perspective to analyze and interpret the film and television works; There are also senior Festival planners who can understand the film selection system of different types of festivals, what kind of films have the recognition, so as to understand the efforts and contributions of these institutions and organizations to the progress of animation industry, etc. Only with certain knowledge thickness and aesthetic cultivation can the depth and temperament of his works be improved in essence. From this level, the series of activities is the inheritance of the spirit of the Academy of art.
