電腦動畫《雲豹傳說》創作論述與電腦模擬四足動物肌肉系統之技術研究

原住民傳統文化一直是台灣重要的歷史資產，其中原住民神話代表台灣原住民的信仰與生活價值觀，在台灣歷史過程是不可被遺忘的意義與價值。這份珍貴的文化正需要去保存及推廣。藉由創作《雲豹傳說》，改編至魯凱族好茶村遷村的神話故事，傳達台灣生態與原住民文化特色的電腦3D動畫。
此外，本創作技術方面以ZBrush雕刻3D模型，運用Maya Muscle System配合藝用動物解剖學，模擬肌肉的動態效果，讓角色更加生動自然。並建立四足動物模型與肌肉系統的製作流程，提供之後接觸此領域的人，能更快速方便使用軟體技術，以便加快整體創作過程，節省摸索的時間。

The traditional aboriginal culture is an important heritage asset in Taiwan. The aboriginal myths represent the aborigines' belief and perception of life in Taiwan, which have the meaning and value not to be forgotten in Taiwan's history. This precious culture needs to be preserved and promoted. By creating the compute animation "the Legend of Taiwan Leopard", which is adapted from the story of the Rukai's Kucapungane village relocation, I hope to convey the characteristics of Taiwan's ecology and aboriginal culture.
In addition, this creation used ZBrush to sculpt 3D models and Maya Muscle System with Animal Anatomy for Artists to simulate motion effects of muscles, making the characters more vivid and natural. And I also set up the procedure to make four-footed animal and muscle system, allowing people who will get into this area to use the techniques of the programs more efficiently and save time to grope.
