Abstract: With the continuous development of three-dimensional animation, the expressive force of lens and light is also improving. The lens in lighting art has constructed a real, grotesque and incredible light and shadow for us! This progress and achievement is what animators need to continue to explore, and we should also use creative thinking to promote the development of animation art! The development of animation needs the creative design of lens and lighting. Nowadays, creativity is emphasized. Creative design has different degrees of influence on the development of animation art. The creative design of lens and lighting in animation is reflected in the development of enriching scenes and adapting to plot design. The creative design of animators promotes the form of animation design and promotes the progress of animation art. Lens and lighting run through the whole process of animation. Lens is an indispensable substitute for story plot and narrative, and lighting is an important guarantee for rendering animation atmosphere. Good lens can increase the story and make the story more exciting, and good lighting can bring excellent visual experience!
Based on the research on the background and reasons of creative design of lens and lighting in 3D animation, this paper states the research status of animation industry development, expounds the reasons for choosing this topic for design research and the case study of 3D architecture design of lens and lighting in Nantong University's 3D animation short film Roaming, and expounds the production process of 3D animation, as well as the performance and technology of lens and lighting creativity in the implementation process. It is a little too long.
