Description

Cable call animation generation method and device, electronic equipment and storage medium

Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of video animation technologies, and in particular, to a method and apparatus for generating a cable call animation, an electronic device, and a storage medium.

Background

Under the large trend of development in the digital age, the main stream of content transmission modes is video, and for extremely complex functions, a short video can be received more easily by a user, so that the user's mind is quickly occupied, the user's fragmentation time is preempted, and the user is immersed in the video. Video includes images (pictures, vision) and audio (sound, hearing). It can express what the video producer wants to express or present in a way that is closest to the way the person initially knows the surrounding environment (except for the sense of touch and smell, etc. is not available). Direct and efficient is the greatest feature and advantage of video in various modes of propagation.

The three-dimensional video is replaced by the product components which are developed at present, the three-dimensional video is used as product operation and maintenance video data of users, the carrying capacity of the information in the three-dimensional video is large, richer contents can be conveyed in a short time, the users can intuitively and efficiently learn knowledge and skills from the operation and maintenance video, and can easily and quickly learn the component replacement method in the process of easily and actively watching, so that the three-dimensional video is vivid, convenient and efficient compared with the traditional image-text contents.

The three-dimensional animation process used by most animation companies at present basically follows the following steps: modeling step = > mapping step = > texture step = > binding step = > animation step = > rendering step = > synthesis step. Because of the production requirement, a project has a plurality of video operation engineers to participate in, and a plurality of project resources have model materials and dynamic animations which can be shared, so that problems such as communication problems, file interaction problems and the like can be brought, the time for producing and inputting is greatly increased, and the operation and maintenance video files are not standardized and specialized enough.

Along with the complexity of server product design and the diversification of configuration types, in a three-dimensional operation and maintenance video, the types of wiring and wiring modes and plugging modes on the related board card are more and more, and the wiring principle and wiring modes are clear and difficult to be interpreted by only replacing one component. In addition, in the aspects of three-dimensional model establishment and animation production, cable models and animations in different project products of a server have high reusability, but at present, 3D software cannot establish a starting state link system in time, and the cable models and the cable animations cannot be put into a dynamic link system in time in a unified manner, so that video operation and maintenance engineers can conveniently call the video operation and maintenance engineers.

Meanwhile, in the later links of developing operation and maintenance video data, namely the synthesis step in the three-dimensional animation production flow, the sequence pictures which are rendered and output in the 3D software are required to be processed by the cooperation of synthesis software and editing software, if the sequence pictures are required to be modified, the sequence pictures cannot be directly modified in the synthesis software and the editing software, the sequence pictures must be returned to the 3D software for modification and then rendered and output, and three types of software, namely the 3D software, the synthesis software and the editing software, cannot be dynamically linked and modified in real time, so that the whole process is tedious and lengthy, and a great amount of time investment is caused.
