动画本体美学:叙事的意指

Essential Aesthetics of Animation: Narrative Connotation

一般认为漫画是动画本体造型的基础,不过作为绘画的漫画与作为叙事的动画,尽管两者关系密切,但并不是天然的契合,当叙事的因素在动画中被强调,漫画自身便开始从嘲讽的意指向着审美的意指转变,这一变化最终通过风格化和19世纪艺术所获得的自主性为观众所接受。另外,可爱漫画在动画本体造型中具有不容小觑的地位,它具有与生俱来的商业属性。可爱漫画的造型形式尽管也属于漫画,但与一般以审丑作为特征的漫画相去甚远,两者分布在隶属于漫画的动画造型形式的两端,共同构成了动画本体造型形式的一个重要方面。

There indeed is a close relation between cartoon as painting and cartoon as narration. However, when nar- rative factor of cartoon is stressed, its aesthetic connotation then becomes much more important than ridiculed connota- tion. In addition, with its native commercial attribute, cute cartoon plays a significant role in animation essence.
