(4) Research status
The "Suzhou New Year Pictures" shown in the preface and included in the "Catalogue of Ancient China Prints" published by the Tokyo Art Institute in 1937 were the earliest overseas research and mention of Taohuawu New Year pictures. In his 2015 doctoral thesis "Research on Ancient Suzhou Color Prints", Wu Zhen made a detailed analysis of the "Gusu Version" Taohuawu New Year Pictures' role in promoting the emergence of Japanese Ukiyo-e and its historical evolution. The earliest domestic book mentioning and discussing Taohuawu New Year paintings was "A Brief History of the Development of Chinese New Year Paintings" written by A Ying published in 1954. This book was the first brief history of Chinese New Year Paintings in the history of Chinese art. The book "Taohuawu Woodcut New Year Pictures: Works, Techniques, Documents" compiled by Suzhou Arts and Crafts Vocational and Technical College and Suzhou Taohuawu Woodcut New Year Pictures Society records Taohuawu's representative New Year pictures in different periods, with explanations and creations of the New Year pictures. Source: There are detailed descriptions of the production process, seal cutting techniques, color matching, printing, etc. of Taohuawu New Year pictures. All foreign research works are published in Japan. "Gusu Prosperity Record", which won the title of "China's Most Beautiful Book" in 2017, records the academic discussions of domestic and foreign scholars on the art of Taohuawu New Year paintings. Among the more than 200 classic Taohuawu New Year paintings displayed in the book, 13 have been collected in Japan and France. The large number of Taohuawu New Year pictures included in these documents provide a certain research basis for the author on how to apply them to dynamic illustration design.
2. Current research status of the combination of dynamic illustrations and New Year pictures. Foreign research on dynamic illustrations appeared relatively early. In 1990, American scholars Noemi Paz and William Leigh jointly published "A Technique for Presenting Dynamic Illustrations with Text" (A Technique for Presenting Dynamic Illustrations with Text). Technology for Presenting Dynamic Illustrations) proposes how to use computer technology to make text appear and move with the display of illustrations, similar to the presentation of dynamic illustrations for interactive science popularization. At present, the earliest research on dynamic illustrations in China was in 2009. Yang Bo published "Dynamic Expression of Illustration Art" in "Contemporary Art". The article mentioned the contribution of foreign illustrators to the dynamization of illustrations and the contribution of traditional Chinese art to dynamic illustrations. The exploration of Chinese painting and shadow puppetry, for example, uses the "movement in silence" of the picture to convey the language and emotion of the picture. The analysis has the same purpose as dynamic illustration. Secondly, "the development and extension of animation have also created good conditions for the dynamic development of illustration." Basics” 2. The search keyword "dynamic illustration intangible cultural heritage" shows that there are 7 documents in total. Among them, Liu Junwen's "Research on the Creation of Dynamic Illustrations of Laoshan Folk Stories" analyzes the types and development status of Laoshan folk tales and how to reasonably combine them with dynamic illustrations to enrich the expression of the stories. ; Chen Wenjing's "Innovative Design of Dynamic Illustrations of Han Xizai's Night Banquet" is a perfect example of combining the theme of "Han Xizai's Night Banquet" with modern illustrations. Conducted brand-new painting and design research using modern techniques; Xiao Jiaxin's ""Four Seasons of Qionghua"-Innovative Design Application of Dynamic Illustrations for Cantonese Opera Scenes in the Ming and Qing Dynasties" carried out design transformation for the promotion of Cantonese opera scenes, using dynamic illustrations to carry the culture and richness of Cantonese opera The expression form of Cantonese opera dissemination; Song Li's "Research on the Dynamic Illustration Design of Shadow Puppetry in Southern Liaoning from the Perspective of Intangible Cultural Heritage" The adaptation and design innovation of the Liaonan shadow puppet drama "The Legend of White Snake" are all important for the modernization of China's intangible cultural heritage and technological innovation research.
(5) Innovation points of research
In 2018, the Palace Museum revitalized the famous painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" (Picture 1-1) using modern digital technology to present the Song Dynasty in the painting through holographic projection, naked-eye 3D, 8K ultra-high-definition digital interaction and other technological means. city life. At the current stage, for the creative research on the dynamic expression of New Year picture art, there are few dynamic expression forms that use the characteristics of local New Year pictures as carriers. Most of them are based on the overall New Year picture or the image of a certain character in the New Year picture. For example, there are Hangzhou Ayou Culture Technology Company and The New Year picture version of the promotional video "New Year Picture Painting Year" for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics co-created by China Central Radio and Television (Figure 1-2). Combine with digital art to innovate communication forms.

In the beginning of the first episode "Farewell to the Year of the Ox" in the second season of the New Year Painting popular science documentary "New Year Painting·Pictured Year" produced by CCTV's Agricultural and Rural Channel, local New Year painting elements are combined with dynamic illustrations to create a slightly more serious and solemn look. The documentary adds a touch of humor. Since the broadcast time of this documentary episode is during the New Year, the background designed at the beginning is a studio, with Tianjin Yangliuqing door god Jingde and Shaanxi Fengxiang Stove King as hosts (Figure 3-12). The background remains static, and the dynamic part is Jingde and Stove King. The mouth opens and closes in a speaking state, and finally the hands are added to express New Year greetings with subtitles. It is similar to the daily news program where the host greets and then inserts the news guide. Also at the beginning of the third episode of the second season of the program "New Year Pictures·Pictured Year", "She in the New Year Pictures", there are related dynamic illustrations presented. The elements of the New Year pictures are Qin Liangyu, the female general and goalkeeper who is flattered in the Jiajiang New Year pictures in Sichuan, and the dynamic lens is through Qin Liangyu The interaction with the protagonist, the little girl, says the word "password" and then opens the door. The dynamic part of the New Year picture is Qin Liangyu's sleeves and phoenix crown fluttering, and the expression changes slightly with the mouth (picture 3-13), adding a sense of interactivity to the show. In addition to the "New Year Pictures·Pictured Year" program, the Hunan Museum produced a related popular science dynamic illustration short film "Traveling with Cultural Relics - The Door Gods of the Republic of China New Year Pictures" for the Hunan Tantou New Year Pictures in 2021. It was designed as a webcast in the image of the door gods Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong. The anchor image introduces and popularizes science on the production technology and process of beach New Year paintings. It is the most famous among the popular science beach New Year paintings. The dynamic part of the line engraving plate is that the engraving plate slides from top to bottom with the door god (Figure 3-14).
(4) The advantages of dynamic illustrations in the dissemination of Taohuawu New Year pictures
1. Increase the commercial value of Taohuawu New Year pictures. Make the characters and scene elements of the New Year pictures come alive, and bring an immersive experience to offline audiences in the form of science popularization or interaction.

Dynamic illustrations use frame-by-frame animation, tween animation and other technical means to transform Taohuawu New Year pictures from static to dynamic, making the pictures more vivid and interesting.
4. Taohuawu New Year Pictures in Dynamic Illustration Design Strategy
(1) Design principles of dynamic illustrations for Taohuawu New Year pictures
1. The fun of Taohuawu New Year pictures
For example, in the 2019 New Year Painting New Year Painting Creation Camp Achievement Exhibition held by Tsinghua University, the innovative design of Taohuawu New Year Paintings was presented with the brand image design of "Peach Blossom Scenery". The work was themed "Fu Lu Shou", which symbolizes "Fu Lu Shou". Happiness, auspiciousness, longevity; the main colors of the work use the classic peach, green and purple in Taohuawu New Year pictures to form a contrast. The presentation of New Year picture elements expresses the traditional New Year picture woodblock printing in the form of digital painting. texture, and refining and rearranging the auxiliary decorative patterns in the New Year pictures (Figure 4-1). Retain the interest in traditional art and achieve the unity of tradition and innovation in the work.
2. The decorative nature of illustration design
The extension of elements helps the pattern to highlight the theme, as well as the composition, the combination of dots, lines and surfaces for decoration, as well as the use of color. For example, illustrator Li Yaohui's New Year-themed illustrations of the Year of the Tiger carefully depict and decorate the tiger, making the image of the tiger more three-dimensional and vivid. (Figure 4-2)
3. Technical aspects of dynamic illustrations
Through drawing software and image processing software, a series of static images are also continuously played through frame-by-frame animation, stop-motion animation, etc. in animation principles. Create dynamic effects. It involves the combination of editing and sound effects. Through the connection of pictures, lens switching, zooming in and out, etc. in editing, the visual impact of dynamic illustrations is stronger. The combination and assistance of sound effects can enhance the atmosphere and appeal of the work to achieve a unified audio-visual effect. .
(2) Dynamic expression techniques in the dynamic illustration design of Taohuawu New Year pictures
1. Imitation of animals
It is a dynamic presentation that simulates the dynamics of characters, objects and natural things in real life. It can be realized through fixed-point movement and fixed-point manipulation of objects or elements through the design software Adobe After Effects. The dynamic expression technique of quasi-object animation can improve the authenticity of dynamic illustrations and make the entire picture more vivid and natural. It can show the movements of characters and the dynamics of auxiliary objects in the picture, making the picture interesting.
2. Image alternation method
It means that one image disappears, slides, switches, etc. as another image appears. You can control the transparency at fixed points in the timeline through the design software Adobe After Effects, or create and create multiple static layers through Adobe Photoshop to create a timeline and add and adjust individual static layers in sequence. Use its dynamic expression technique to explain the meaning of the patterns or elements in the Taohuawu New Year paintings or the origin of the story in words, so as to achieve the popular science effect of unified pictures and texts.
(3) Communication carrier of dynamic illustration design of Taohuawu New Year pictures
Place and publish through social platforms and video platforms such as Douyin, Weibo, Xiaohongshu, WeChat video account, and Bilibili website
