Abstract [en]

In this paper we will investigate how Disney's 12 principles of animation is used today by professional 3D CGI animators in their work.

The purpose of this study is to get an insight on how Disney's 12 principles of animation has changed for application in 3D CGI animation, as they were originally made for hand-drawn animation.

Based on a selective choice based on a survey sent to studios working with animation and to freelance animators, we conduct interviews with the animators who answered the survey and could provide empirical data to our research.

In the interviews, we ask how the respondents apply Disney's 12 principles of animation in their work in order to evaluate how they have changed since the 30s.

The results we got showed that all respondents agree that Disney's 12 principles of animation are important tools in the creation of believable character animations.

Some respondents chose to go through each animation principle and explain how they utilize each principle in their work, while other respondents stated they did not carefully followed these principles as they work with timelimited projects which means they do not have time to go through them all

Abstract [sv]

I denna uppsats så undersöker vi hur Disneys 12 animationsprinciper används idag av yrkesverksamma 3D-CGI-animatörer i deras arbete.

Syftet med detta är att få en inblick över hur Disneys 12 animationsprinciper har utvecklats för att kunna tillämpas i 3D-CGI-animation, då de ursprungligen gjordes för handtecknad animation.

Utifrån ett selektivt urval utifrån en enkätundersökning som skickas till studios som arbetar med animation och till frilansanimatörer, så utför vi kvalitativa intervjuer med de animatörer som har svarat på enkäten och kunnat ge empiri till vår forskning. I intervjuerna så frågar vi om hur respondenterna använder sig av Disneys 12 animationsprinciper i deras arbete för att sedan kunna utvärdera hur de har ändrats sedan 30-talet.

Det resultat vi fick fram visade att samtliga respondenter är överens om att Disneys 12 animationsprinciper är viktiga verktyg vid framställningen av trovärdiga karaktärsanimationer.

Några respondenter valde att gå igenom varje animationsprincip och förklara hur de använde sig av varje princip i deras arbete, medan andra respondenter förklarade att de inte noggrant följde dessa principer då de oftast arbetar med tidsbegränsade projekt vilket innebär att de inte har tid att gå igenom alla
