Evaluation results of 88 points and 85 points are shown from the evaluation of the last results for evaluation items according to the standard of 100 points, and it suggests that game development personnel and character content production personnel be reserved with professional education and support in the future.

This study proposed the development of creatures for making game characters. A creature is a living being and it comprehends everything including the real world, the universe, and virtual worlds. Creatures are characterized by creation and transformation, and they complete game characters. Completed character creatures can be used in games, animations, movies, comics, smart phone games, etc. There are various materials of creatures including plants, birds, mammals, and humans, and these materials can be expressed as game creatures and used in making game characters. In this study, creatures were developed in the forms of bird, mammal, and human. Combined with game background, game characters generated from such creatures produce game contents that are usable in various areas. This study suggests developing more diverse creatures to be utilized in areas where game contents are required.

This thesis is focusing on various image photographing techniques equipped in smartphones and their educational uses. Since most smartphones have large quantity of memory and various kinds of applications, taking videos has become possible. For example, they enable us to take pictures of people and scenery using shooting functions and it is possible to move the view horizontally and vertically by handling camera works. The videos taken by these functions are completed by the works of combining, correcting, condensing and building them. Unlike the past, there have been many changes in the course of teaching and learning process between instructors and students by the impact of smartphones. Among them, smartphones have become an essential element in performing cooperative learning. This research is constructed on the real cases of learners, highschool students although more students couldn’t participate in the performance due to their heavy curricular procedure. They planned to make up stories, could recognize the reality of film-making and learn interaction at the last stage of in completing the film, by using smartphones. Smartphones our contemporary men and women are using anytime, anywhere, have become an indispensible item from talking to making educational contents.

This study proposed game background content production according to game genre characteristics. Above all, this study classified game background characteristics according to game genre for game background production. Game background intuitively displays a whole game and interfaces with game players. Game background is the player’s space significantly important because it gives interest and immersion of the game to the player. This study analyzed Dungeon background content production for online game PRG genre. For production of Dungeon game background contents, it is necessary to consider periodic, cultural, historical, artificial, virtual, environmental elements including periodic backgrounds and fantasy elements as background environment set elements. And it is necessary to collect related materials, establish content images, and actualize them. After completing establishment and actualization, it is necessary to finish background work by producing 3D contents based on the original picture. This study produced 2D Dungeon background contents with Photoshop and 3D with MAX, resulting in satisfactory production. From the results of analyzing Dungeon game background contents, it was found that most of content production was conducted under dark and fantasy tones with the sense of medieval weights. For future studies, it is needed to research content production with regard to various genre backgrounds and for high quality background content production.

Computer graphics technique with which two dimensional black and white characters used to be displayed on a monitor in the early period, has now been developed to display three dimensional color images on a mobile terminal. In particular, owing to technique growth in graphics, non-photo realistic rendering technique has grown to express non-photo realistic images as well as realistic rendering. Non-photo realistic rendering technique grows to be motion graphic technique. With the growth of motion graphic technique, it can be possible to produce various expressions and effects. This study proposes a way of turning three dimensional images into two dimensional cartoon look. Two dimensional cartoon look, a type of pictorial expression appeals to emotions, and is in great demand at advertisement, mobile and cartoon. Thus, this study not only changes three dimensional images into two dimensional cartoon look, but also numerous images can be expressible in one page by applying PIP (Picture In Picture) technique, and expressions of cartoons are to be reproduced in turning pages automatically by applying ‘page turn’ technique. Accordingly, it is believed that this content production technique can be applicable in various fields including game, advertisement, cartoons, etc.

This study proposes that general users will produce UHD image contents or game background image. UHD realistic image gives reality with a 4K ultra high‐definition large screen. However, UHD contents are relatively lacked. In order to produce UHD contents, 4K images are needed. As shooting equipment is expensive, HD image is converted through upscale or pull down. Accordingly, in this study, we propose to take 4K definition static image with general camera to produce UHD contents, and to insert sound and effects and to sync using editing program. For experiment, we used 15 seconds' length image in 3840x2160 and 4096x2304 resolution respectively. In the experiment, it was found that image quality and volume increased and sense of reality changed according to definition and high frame rate. As another experiment, we used 15 seconds' length HD image in 3840x2160 resolution using high frame rate method. In the experiment, it was found that image quality, volume and sense of reality were changed according to high frame rate.

This study proposes a 3D realistic moving picture project for video game content production.
