Support and complement device, support and complement method, and recording medium for specifying character motion or animation
First Claim
1. A support and complement device for making animation movies comprises:
- a unit of memory for inputted commands which stores a specification command inputted, the specification command specifying a motion of a character other than a voice emission motion;
a unit of memory for inputted data which stores language data;
an emotion classification unit;
a unit for choosing commands which generates a motion command which represents a motion of the character; and
a unit for reading out the animation movies which instructs a readout device to play back the motion of the character specified by the motion command;
wherein the unit of memory for inputted data stores material data;
the emotion classification unit analyzes the specification command and deduces at least one basic emotion pattern from an analysis result of the specification command;
the emotion classification unit analyzes the language data and deduces at least one basic emotion pattern from an analysis result of the language data;
the emotion classification unit analyzes the material data and deduces at least one basic emotion pattern from an analysis result of the material data;
the unit for choosing commands generates the motion command based on the at least one basic emotion pattern deduced from the specification command, the at least one basic emotion pattern deduced from the language data and the at least one basic emotion pattern deduced from the material data;
the unit for reading out the animation movies instructs the readout device to play back, in a synchronized manner, the material data and the motion of the character specified by the motion command.

Abstract
A support and complement device etc., are provided, which appropriately generates the character'"'"'s motion for content introduction in a simple manner. The user inputs a command to an input device, which specifies the character'"'"'s motion used for content introduction. The support and complement device complements the command input operation. The content includes material data and language data. The language data includes voice data to be emitted by the character. A unit for recognizing emotions analyzes the material data and the language data, and deduces the emotion pattern to be expressed by the character. A unit for choosing commands determines the character'"'"'s motion using the deduced emotion pattern, command, and voice data, and generates a motion command. A unit for reading out animation movies for user'"'"'s check instructs a readout device to display a proposed animation movie generated by the unit for choosing commands, thereby allowing the user to review it.

13. A support and complement method for making animation movies used by a support and complement device,
wherein the support and complement device comprises; -
a unit of memory for inputted commands which stores a specification command inputted, the specification command specifying a motion of a character other than a voice emission motion; a unit of memory for inputted data which stores language data and material data; an emotion classification unit; a unit for choosing commands which generates a motion command which represents a motion of the character; and a unit for reading out the animation movies which instructs a readout device to play back the motion of the character specified by the motion command; and wherein the support and complement method comprises; analyzing, by the emotion classification unit, the specification command and deducing at least one basic emotion pattern from an analysis result of the specification command; analyzing, by the emotion classification unit, the language data and deducing at least one basic emotion pattern from an analysis result of the language data; analyzing, by the emotion classification unit, the material data and deducing at least one basic emotion pattern from an analysis result of the material data; generating, by the unit for choosing commands, the motion command based on the at least one basic emotion pattern deduced from the specification command, the at least one basic emotion pattern deduced from the language data and the at least one basic emotion pattern deduced from the material data; and instructing, by the unit for reading out the animation movies, the readout device to play back, in a synchronized manner, the material data and the motion of the character specified by the motion command. - View Dependent Claims (14)
