台灣動畫發展歷程以及環境現況,相較於歐、美及日本動畫快速發展,我國動畫產業長期存在許多問題及瓶頸。首先國內動畫影片面臨市場有限、賣座情況不佳及資金、創意、劇本不足的窘境,其次,因近年來韓國、中國大陸等亞洲國家的動畫創作崛起,迫使我國業者為維持生產利潤而紛紛外移到海外設立分公司,將傳統代工業務逐漸轉移到韓國、中國大陸、東南亞等低成本人力地區、造成我國動畫市場萎縮與產業外移。隨著以上這些效應,發現台灣動畫環境裡非常缺乏製作的特效製作的技術,甚至有可能會成為動畫製作中的致命傷。 流體動力學特效的動畫製作一直都是3D製作軟體的難題。雖然可以透過使用某些外掛插件程式來解決此問題,NextLimit公司開發的Realflow軟體,則帶給我們完整的流體動力學特效動畫解決方案。不論是3ds max、Maya、Cinema 4D、LightWave 3D、Softlmage、Houndini,以上的製作軟體都能創造出驚人的流體特效動畫。 本創作將藉由Realflow作為技術研究媒材,用以輔佐本篇創作。創作部分則以台灣原創為發想,為了能夠結合水與海洋則聯想到蘭嶼島上的達悟族來作為主題。達悟族是台灣原住民當中唯一靠海為生的族群,具有獨特性,因此選擇達悟族為本創作的主題。動畫內容使用Realflow軟體的流體特效來製作海洋、水流,呈現出真實水流的效果,搭配上達悟族以海上生活維生的動畫故事。
Taiwanese animation development process as well as state of the environment, compared to Europe, America and Japan, animation rapid development, Taiwan animation industry has many problems and long-term bottleneck. First faced domestic animation market is limited, grossing poor performance and funding, creativity, script shortages, and secondly, because in recent years, South Korea, China and other Asian countries, low labor cost advantage to compete foundry market, forcing the industry to our country maintain production moved overseas profits have set up branches outside the traditional OEM business gradually shifted to South Korea, China, Southeast Asia and other low-cost labor regions, resulting in China's animation market is shrinking and industrial relocation. With these effects and found that Taiwanese animation production environment is the lack of effects production technology, there may even become fatal in animation. Hydrodynamic effects animation 3D production software has always been the problem. Although it is possible through the use of some plugins program to solve this problem, NextLimitRealflow developed software, then give us a complete hydrodynamic effects animation solutions. Whether 3ds max, Maya, Cinema 4D, LightWave 3D, Softlmage, Houndini, Realflow just use the software, you can create amazing effects animation fluid. The creation of the media as a technology by Realflow for adjuvant Benpian creation. Partly by aboriginal creation in the Tao tribe as a theme, animated content using Realflow Fluid Effects software to create the ocean, water, showing a real effect of the water, with the Tao tribe living in the animated sea life story.
