<\/p>\nOur company has started providing animation automatic coloring AI to Geek Pictures Co., Ltd., which plans and produces video, graphics, animation (hereinafter referred to as anime), CGI content, etc. Cinnamon AI and Geek Pictures will promote digital transformation (hereinafter referred to as DX) in the anime industry through the use of various AI technologies, including this anime automatic coloring AI.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u25a0Background of this project
\nAnime production requires the drawing of thousands of cels even for a 30-minute animation, and the manual labor of a person with a certain level of skill is required to color the cels. Up until now, most anime production companies have either hired their own skilled craftsmen or outsourced to overseas outsourcing companies that specialize in coloring cels. The anime industry is an important industry that strengthens Japan's soft power and plays a part in Japan's Cool Japan Strategy, but the lack of specialized human resources at anime production sites is a major issue.<\/p>\n
Cinnamon AI supports the promotion of DX that brings about change at the industrial level, with the mission of "Together with AI, a world full of creativity." This time, Cinnamon AI and Geek Pictures will jointly promote this project to transform the anime industry. By utilizing the animation automatic coloring AI provided by Cinnamon AI, we will achieve more accurate and speedy coloring than previous results. Specifically, by increasing the overall processing capacity through automatic AI processing, we will increase high-value-added work for anime producers and work on DX in the anime industry.<\/p>\n
\u25a0Summary of the initiative
\nAnime automatic coloring AI aims to improve the productivity of anime creators by introducing AI to coloring work, which has a high workload. As for the system configuration, AI technology is utilized in each flow from cell image preprocessing to coloring. Specifically, the coloring accuracy in pixel value units is 96%, which enables coloring to an extremely high level, reducing the time required to color cel images to 1\/10, and reducing costs by more than 50%. Become. In the future, we are considering building a system with an eye toward a collaborative interface with paint tools if necessary.<\/p>\n
Cinnamon AI and Geek Pictures will jointly promote this anime automatic coloring AI project. In the future, we also plan to provide services to general companies through Geek Pictures.<\/p>\n
