System and method for generating cartoon data
First Claim
1. A system for generating cartoon data, which includes at least one cut each illustrating one corresponding scene and having a plurality of layers forming the cut, the system comprising:
- at least one processor in communication with a plurality of user terminals through a computer network, and configured to include a plurality of functional units for executing a plurality of functions, the functional units including,a receiving unit that receives a layer selection signal for selecting at least one layer from a select cut of the cartoon data and an effect application signal for applying a predetermined effect to the at least one selected layer, the select cut being previously generated and displayed on a cartoon data generation screen;
a determination unit that determines a layer satisfying a predetermined expansion condition from among the at least one selected layer in the previously generated select cut; and
a controller that expands a size of the layer satisfying the predetermined expansion condition to a predetermined size relative to other layers in the select cut while maintaining a size of the other layers of the select cut, applies the predetermined effect to the expanded layer, and displays the select cut with the predetermined effect applied to the expanded layer on a display unit of a user terminal;
wherein the select cut has an interface surface including an edge around the select cut and the expanded layer has an interface surface including an edge around the expanded layer, and when the expanded layer has been expanded to the predetermined size within the display unit so that a portion of the edge of the interface surface of the expanded layer extends outside the interface surface of the select cut, the portion of the edge of the interface surface of the expanded layer does not move inside the edge of the interface surface of the select cut when the predetermined effect is applied to the expanded layer.

Abstract
A cartoon data generating system includes a receiving unit configured to receive a layer selection signal for selecting at least one layer from cartoon data including a cut generated from a combination of at least one layer including different stories and an effect application signal for applying a predetermined effect to the at least one selected layer; a determination unit configured to determine a layer satisfying an expansion condition among the at least one selected layer; and a controller configured to expand the layer satisfying the expansion condition to a predetermined size and generate an effect cut from a combination of the expanded layer to which the predetermined effect is applied and another layer.

7. A user terminal for displaying cartoon data which includes at least one cut each illustrating one corresponding scene and having a plurality of layers forming the cut, comprising:
-
a display unit configured to display, according to a layer selection signal, at least one layer selected from a select cut of the cartoon data, and display, according to an effect application signal for applying a predetermined effect to the at least one selected layer, a layer satisfying a predetermined expansion condition, the select cut being previously generated displayed on a cartoon data generation screen; and a controller configured to expand a size of the layer satisfying the predetermined expansion condition to a predetermined size relative to other layers in the select cut while maintaining a size of the other layers of the select cut, apply the predetermined effect to the expanded layer, and output the select cut with the predetermined effect applied to the expanded layer on to the display unit, wherein the select cut has an interface surface including an edge around the select cut and the expanded layer has an interface surface including an edge around the expanded layer, and when the expanded layer has been expanded to the predetermined size within the display unit so that a portion of the edge of the interface surface of the expanded layer extends outside the interface surface of the select cut, the portion of the edge of the interface surface of the expanded layer does not move inside the edge of the interface surface of the select cut when the predetermined effect is applied to the expanded layer. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)

10. A method of generating cartoon data which includes at least one cut each illustrating one corresponding scene and having a plurality of layers forming the cut, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by a receiving unit, a layer selection signal for selecting at least one layer from a select cut of the cartoon data and an effect application signal for applying a predetermined effect to the at least one selected layer, the select cut being previously generated and displayed on a cartoon data generation screen; determining, by a determination unit, a layer satisfying a predetermined expansion condition from among the at least one selected layer in the previously generated select cut; and expanding, by a controller, a size of the layer satisfying the predetermined expansion condition to a predetermined size relative to other layers in the select cut while maintaining a size of the other layers of the select cut, applying the predetermined effect to the expanded layer, and displaying the select cut with the predetermined effect applied to the expanded layer on a display unit of a user terminal; wherein the select cut has an interface surface including an edge around the select cut and the expanded layer has an interface surface including an edge around the expanded layer, and when the expanded layer has been expanded to the predetermined size within the display unit so that a portion of the edge of the interface surface of the expanded layer extends outside the interface surface of the select cut, the portion of the edge of the interface surface of the expanded layer does not move inside the edge of the interface surface of the select cut when the predetermined effect is applied to the expanded layer. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
