Scene design, by definition, refers to the modeling design of all objects in an animation film except for character designs. Scenes are specific spatial environments that unfold the plot, showcase the living space of characters, depict historical and cultural backgrounds, shape and enhance character images, personalities, and inner worlds. The spatial volume of scenes is vast: fields, rivers, mountains, and bright moons belong to natural environments; cities, squares, gardens, and residential areas are human-made spaces for work, study, and leisure; and the non-material consciousness realm formed by human interactions constitutes the social environment. With the help of this book, your creations will undoubtedly be more vibrant and immersive!
