Animation system and methods for generating animation based on text-based data and user information
First Claim
1. An animation script generating device, comprising:
- a processor configured to execute instructions for an emotion extractor configured to identify, from a user profile database, a character corresponding to a generator of text-based data and user relationship information, the text-based data being analyzed to identify words, sentence elements, or any combination thereof in the text-based data, and the user relationship information indicating a relationship between the generator of the text-based data and a receiver of the text-based data, and extract a user emotion based on the text-based data and the user relationship information;
a selector configured to select an action based on the extracted user emotion; and
a script generator configured to generate an animation script by combining the text-based data with the extracted user emotion and the action, the generated animation script being configured for an input to a terminal that uses an animation outputting device to generate an animation based on the generated animation script,wherein the animation script is generated using a reference database, the reference database comprising a production database configured to store mapping information of at least one of a camera work and a background sound.

Abstract
Animation devices and a method that may output text-based data as an animation, are provided. The device may be a terminal, such as a mobile phone, a computer, and the like. The animation device may extract one or more emotions corresponding to a result obtained by analyzing text-based data. The emotion may be based on user relationship information managed by a user of the device. The device may select an action corresponding to the emotion from a reference database, and combine the text-based data with the emotion and action to generate an animation script. The device may generate a graphic in which a character is moved based on the action information, the emotion information, and the text-based data.
