Look At The Aesthetic Turn Of American Animation From The Role Of Shaping

The aesthetic of American animation turned more and more obviously since the 1970 s,more and more animation show obvious postmodern aesthetic characteristics,such as "the simpsons","shrek","south park","male wave jack ma","let's bear naked".In these works,there are plenty of parodying of the american traditional animation classics,it broke the boundaries between high art and popular art,there is no fixed classical mode of characterization,they oppose homogenization,deep and single grandiose narrative,while follow narrative of diversification and superficiality.In the early American animation,the story is simple,the role relationships tend to be binary opposition,emphasizing the dynamic details of role's body and the overexaggerated deformation,and the shaping of the image follow the same pattern.In the context of the postmodern culture,the aesthetic of American animation tends to pursuit popular culture and consumer culture,emphasizes the sense of vision impact,audience significantly expanded to different age levels,character image changed from a single character to the multiple personality,good and evil,beauty of princess and ugliness of bad people was fuzzy and subversive,it shows obviously anti beautification and tendency of appreciation of ugliness,and break the uniform consensus of story and symbols of character,the implication of the role image was teased,character's body language in the animation changed from exaggerated transformation to reasonless"Mo lei tau" behavior;on the selection of the characters,it broke through the illusory utopia of the story of prince and princess in the early American animation,it focused on the ordinary life of ordinary people.The characterization of American animation in the postmodern context began to blend in foreign cultures,to borrow from foreign elements,constructing the American spirit,converged perfectly foreign culture and American culture,and droped the traditional preaching,have made animation into audience's diversion to entertain and revel.The aesthetic turn of the characterization in American animation is that postmodernism overturn the rigid aesthetic in traditional american animation characterization which is Institutionalized and standardized,that disruption is also disavowal and transformation that Aesthetic modernity made to the institutionalization and aesthetic of American animation industry in the present.Postmodern animation art grew up with the reflection and critique on aesthetic of the early American animation,the antagonism between the two reflects the conflict and contradiction in the western aesthetic culture present and past.This paper discusses the current situation and manifestation of the turn of early and contemporary animation art characterization in the United States from the perspective of the aesthetic of animation art.First distinguished and combed the basic concept of animation and animation films,as well as the source of the art of american animation and the development process,looked for differences and changes in the comperation of characterization in the American animation contemprary and past,discussed the cause of the aesthetic transformationfrom the internal motivation and external force.Finally,by analyzing the turning of American animation,questioned the announcement of "Chinese animation nationalization"that put forward by the Chinese media,and put forward suggestions on the future development of Chinese animation.
