moving image( task 3)

The first animation I want to introduce is the Water Brain, which made by AN17IME Animation studio.
It is an animation to irony Chinese education, not only the school education but also the family education. In some province of China, the only things for children is study.  The whole education system like the machine, and the family members and teachers are just like taskmaster to monitor all the children. As children, they cannot revolt the system, teachers, also their parents.

The second animation I want to introduce is the Deathigner, which made by National Taiwan University of Arts.
It is an animation to show the training for new death. There are three kind of deaths in the animation, and the teacher give some objective for the new deaths. There are two objectives, respectively are killing the rabbit and get the soul from hospital.

According to these two kinds of animations, I think the trend of the moving image/animation is to show the emotion/things without any words.   Because in my opinion, language is the most important element to prevent the world cultural exchange. So, as the carrier of culture, moving image/animation should show their contents without word. Just use background music and image to let all people know what they want to express.

typeface (task 1)

1.            The first typeface I want to describe is the Royal-gothic-upper. It is a kind of serif typeface which in baroque style.

This kind of typeface use elegant curve to make the letter as painting,  and each letter has great emotional. Normally, we can see this typeface on some poster, or art exhibition.  But the weakness of Royal-gothic-upper is that the letters are not very clear, so people cannot distinguish the words immediately.



2.           The second typeface I want describe is the Tahoma.  It is a kind of SanSerif typeface which is very popular.
It is the only kind of typeface I can use in my undergraduate course. Normally, we can see this typeface in some academic writing, and some software, such as SPSS and STATA.  In my opinion, Tahoma is always used in some formal document, without any emotional. And each letter is very clear and easy to read. The only weakness is that people cannot through the font itself to express the emotion.
