Expression Cultural Symbols in the Animation series “Legend of Chinese Medicine”

Yuanbo Zhong

Abstract—Animation is an artistic form with global influence, and cultural symbols play a vital role in animation works. By taking the animation series “Legend of Chinese Medicine” created by the author as an example, this paper discusses the way of using cultural symbols in the design of animated characters and animated scenes from the perspectives of historical and cultural background and lets the audiences be able to better understand how the cultural symbols convey specific values, social background and historical tradition as well as the cultural connotations and information experience conveyed by them through interpreting the cultural symbols in the design of animated characters and animated scenes.

Index Terms—Animated characters, animated scenes, cultural symbols, legend of Chinese medicine
