Our framework involves two stages: a preprocessing phase, in which a hand-drawn clip library with mixed architecture is constructed, and the on-line phase, in which the domain dependent language instructions parsing is carried out and clips in the clip library are matched by use of some matching values calculated from the information derived from instruction parsing. An im- portant feature of our approach is its ability to preserve the artistic quality of clips in the produced cartoon animations.展开更多

This paper proposes to explore the aspect of age as intersecting with gender through the villainesses in six of Disney＇s popular animated films： Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs （1937）, Cinderella （1950）, Sleeping Beauty （1959）, The Little Mermaid （1989）, Tangled （2010）, and Frozen （2013）.
