Automatic 2D animation generation

With computer technologies being widely used in animation field, the complex process of creating animations makes the animators more and more eager to a highly automatic animation technology. In consideration of the durable vitality and wide applications of the 2D animation in recent years, this paper proposes a technology for automatic generation of 2D animation. Inputting a story text based on user's demand, an animation which is coincident with the story will be ultimately generated through a series of automatic processes. The new technology has explored a new field, in which there would be many difficulties, such as 2D camera planning, path planning and layers planning. It would give a significant innovation to the production of 2D animation.
