| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立雲林科技大學 === 數位媒體設計系 === 105 === Love stories usually play a key material in animation shorts, including a romantic story or relationship among the characters. How such works lead the audiences into the core of the story and strike a chord with them becomes my research interest. This thesis explores the love story in animation shorts, trying to figure out the keys to a successful story, and applying them to my story creation.
I adopt content analysis as my approach, examining 5 love animation shorts ever nominated as Best Animated Shorts in Academy Awards. By exploring how a story is structured and narrated, I summarize there are 3 common points in designing a story:
1. The story is told in a linear structure after it changes.
2. The male and the female characters will be connected by an object or an animal.
3. Memory clips and objects are added.
I create my animation shorts based upon the 3 points. The process are divided into 3 parts: pre-planning, midterm-production, post-integration. The complete work and the whole process are recorded in detail as references for the animation creators.
