Abstract
Digital animations development is a process that covers different knowledge areas
and pursuits to connect computational processes with authors’ creative ability.
Creation tools existent in the market require a wide knowledge of animation
principles and also present a dense learning process. For the sake of the learning
curve simplification in order to get faster results, inspiration in traditional cinema and
in artificial intelligence systems to create new methods is sought. In animations preproduction
steps, generating faster animations (animatics) in order to get script
understanding is necessary. The creation basis of those animations is the document
known as storyboard, which displays visually movies plots and scene compositions.
This work presents the proposition of the language SLAP (Storyboard Language for
Animation Programming), which purpose is to unify different visual representations of
scenic elements contained in storyboards. A formal grammar is developed for this
new structure and a novel storyboards creation method is proposed in order to
optimize and unify pre-production learning process. SLAP interpretation is capable of
producing semiautomatic animations in several levels of complexity, elevating the
ordinary storyboard to an animated document. The prototype of the tool SLAP Editor
is also presented as a proof of concept and validation of the language, which uses
artificial intelligence and digital image processing concepts to recognize the visual
language developed. Results of user experience evaluation tests with different preproduction
experience levels are also analyzed.
