为了分析不同角色所描绘的动作的情感内容，我们创建了演员的真实和虚拟复制品，表现出六种基本情感：悲伤、快乐、惊讶、恐惧、愤怒和厌恶。除了真实演员的视频外，他的动作还应用于五种虚拟身体形状：低分辨率和高分辨率的虚拟人物、卡通人物、木制人体模型和僵尸人物（图 1 和图 2）。在点光源条件下，我们还测试了身体缺失是否会影响动作的感知情绪。参与者被要求根据 41 种更复杂的情绪列表对行为进行评分。我们发现，只要形式存在，对情感行为的感知就非常强大，并且在很大程度上独立于角色的身体。当仅存在运动时，人们通常认为情绪不如存在形式时那么强烈。
In order to analyze the emotional content of motions portrayed by different characters, we created real and virtual replicas of an actor exhibiting six basic emotions: sadness, happiness, surprise, fear, anger, and disgust. In addition to the video of the real actor, his actions were applied to five virtual body shapes: a low- and high-resolution virtual counterpart, a cartoon-like character, a wooden mannequin, and a zombie-like character (Figures 1 and 2). In a point light condition, we also tested whether the absence of a body affected the perceived emotion of the movements. Participants were asked to rate the actions based on a list of 41 more complex emotions. We found that the perception of emotional actions is highly robust and to the most part independent of the character's body, so long as form is present. When motion alone is present, emotions were generally perceived as less intense than in the cases where form was present.
