Uma Linguagem para Desenvolvimento de Roteiros de Animação

A. B. Raposo and L. P. Magalhães

Internal Report DCA97-003

Abstract

This report presents the language for the development of animation scripts in the TOOKIMA 2.0 (TOOl KIt for scripting computer Modeled Animation). The proposed language intends to be intermediary between the complex language of the TOOKIMA (similar to C) and the graphical interface (whose objective is to enable the interactive construction of the script).
The new language enables the development of scripts in a higher level of commands (closer to that developed by animation professionals). This eliminates the need of the knowledge about the lower level commands of TOOKIMA's language. Although simple, this new scripting language is complete enough to allow the use of all important resources that already exist in the TOOKIMA.

Keywords: Computer Modeled Animation, Scripting Languages
