Résumé

The cost of producing animated movies is very high, even with the use of computer graphics techniques. This book reports on the methodologies and the implementation of a software prototype called SWAN automating the production process by using artificial intelligence techniques. It supports the full life cycle from a children's story in natural language text form to the final animated movie. A cartoon produced by SWAN was already shown on CCTV (Chinese Central Television Station).
