Abstract

With the development of wireless Internet technology, mobile media, which is considered as the fifth media, has its great advantages on mobility and interactivity. Not only are the creation of mobile phone animation and its unique advantages popular with a number of animation fans but also they attract more people’s attention. Combining animation with mobile media, this paper will analyze and summarize features and application classification of mobile phone animation to learn and explore the definition and features of mobile phone animation from multi-perspectives. The birth and development of digital and Internet technology in recent years provide a number of opportunities and platforms for not only the animation creations but also the animation industry. Before the appearance of new media, such as Internet, digital television, and mobile phone, animation art contains two main means of communications media --traditional films and televisions. It is reasonable to claim that film media has several limitations as it restricts the audiences and requires the audiences to see the same film in the same place during a specific time. Compared with film media, television media is less constrained since it provides the audiences with a number of television channels, indicating that this media could be more selective; however, the time of broadcast is scheduled. Being considered as a tool of entertainment and communication, not only are smartphones used to strengthen interaction and contact but also their function of entertainment becomes the first factor that consumers would take into account. Mobile phone media nowadays is on the way across media and industry, such as communication, Internet, entertainment, and traditional media, combing mobile phone media with animation art. This not only expands the business of mobile phones and their functions but also explores opportunities for the development of animation industry.
