Characters and accessories on one-person media sites, which have steadily been used for the past two to three years, began on the basis of pixel art and characters and avatars are still made in pixel art forms. This thesis compares and analyzes the visual characteristics of happiness, sadness, anger, and joy of characters preferred by age group in the one-person media site, Cyworld and attempts to present design improvement methods for other media items. According to research results, it was shown that, as Cyworld is a space which is used to express one`s own individual image, happiness and joy were preferred most, regardless of age. |
