Abstract

Digital media Watercolor painting, Chinese Computer animation--China
In this paper we present an introduction to Chinese water-ink animations and an exploration of the style and technique that defines an animation as Chinese water-ink. Building upon these traditional techniques we introduce new digital styles to reconstruct important elements of water-ink animation within a virtual environment. Specifically we explore the addition of rice paper as an element within the digital and suggest new ways in which digital Chinese water-ink animation might grow in the future.
