  • Abstract
    Kinetic typography is a character animation methodology operated by computer. Motion character implies its own language together with feeling and tone of voice. The study proposes a communication mail system applied to kinetic typography. Dependent on our precedent research, kinetic typography can show a kind of Kansei information with dynamic motion grammar. Kinetic typography could be useful for expressing a short private message for a greeting or question. We grasped some elements of dynamic motion through factor analysis for Kansei words, and looked at a dynamic motion engine system for kinetic typography. We developed a kinetic communication system to apply the kinetic motion engine, and proposed a prototype operating on a Web browser. It equips the dynamic motion engine and the grammar, and can generate kinetic typography. Senders can choose from several types of motion what they would like to express. Receivers can revive the kinetic typography in the mail on their own browser. The prototype of this system will give us a vision for Kansei communication with kinetic typography
