本文从影像创作者的视角探讨影像创作在媒介技术变迁中的流变过程。文章回顾了从赛璐璐动画到计算机动画, 再到人工智能影像生成的演变历程, 分析了不同媒介如何塑造影像创作的技术方法、美学风格及创作者的角色变化。随着计算机技术的发展, 影像创作逐步从手工制作转向数字化, 而人工智能的崛起进一步挑战了创作者的主体性, 使影像生产进入算法主导的时代。文章结合媒介理论、技术哲学及文化批判, 探讨AI影像创作如何影响作者性, 以及创作者在这一变革中的可能应对方式。在人工智能与大数据驱动的影像时代, 创作的意义是否仍依赖于人的直觉与个性表达, 成为当下影像创作者需要深入思考的问题。

This paper explores the evolution process of image creation image creation in the context of media technology changes from the perspective of a visual image creator. It reviews the transition from cel animation to computer animation and, ultimately, to AI-generated imagery, analyzing how different media have influenced production techniques, aesthetic styles, and the role of the creator. As computing technology advanced, image creation shifted from handcrafted processes to digital workflows, while the rise of artificial intelligence further challenged the subjectivity of creators, leading image production into an era of algorithm- driven production. Incorporating media theory, technology philosophy, and cultural critique, this paper investigates how AI-generated imagery impacts authorship and explores potential responses from creators. In an age of AI and data-driven image production, the question of whether creativity still relies on human intuition and individual expression remains a critical issue for contemporary image creators.
