A Novel MG 2D Animation Design Method under the Perspective of Convergence Media Using Intelligent Design Technology

Abstract

The arrival of the 5G era, along with the gradual acceleration of information technology development, makes all kinds of new media gradually integrated into all corners of people’s life, work, and study. Communication systems are breaking the original boundaries and moving toward communion. “Convergence Media” is a general term of new media which is built on modern network technology and integrates various media forms. In this context, animation design not only is limited to two-dimensional or three-dimensional creation, but also formed a new form of animation expression, namely, MG animation. For MG animation, with its simple artistic modeling elements and flexible rhythm, people have gained new cognition. When the Internet information is transmitted, MG animation can output a large number of dynamic images and text to people in a very short time, which is similar to the current mode of new media communication. It can make information more attractive and appealing with the visual performance of MG animation. In order to improve the quality and efficiency of animation, convergence media technology is applied to the drawing and production of animation. The emergence and continuous improvement of software such as AE, PR, and PS and other software have a strong compatibility and can fully meet our various requirements for MG animation production, thus bringing the audience a different kind of animation experience. AE, a common software for video production, can create a variety of striking visual effects with high efficiency and precision, with powerful effects control and millions of plug-ins to achieve a wide range of animation effects. High-quality video rendering supports resolutions from 4 × 4 to 30,000 × 30,000 pixels including high-definition television (HDTV). Therefore, in terms of animation production, we can choose to mainly use AE for production and rendering. In terms of drawing tools, PS is the software of choice, with no delay in drawing, dithering correction, selection, and other features which are quite outstanding, and has a great advantage in drawing lines and coloring. Based on this, this paper mainly explores the design and production cases of MG 2D animation from the new media perspective using the intelligent design technology. The animation designed by the method in this paper can also be used for medical treatment management or lesion display in the medical field.
