Abstract:
Chinese tea culture integrates philosophical thought, ethical principles, aesthetic sensibilities, and ceremonial traditions into a cohesive whole. It represents a unique lifestyle and spiritual experience cultivated by the Chinese nation through millennia of tea planting, processing, and consumption practices. Leveraging its strengths in dynamic visual expression, character portrayal, and multimodal storytelling, animation art effectively transcends barriers to intergenerational transmission. It vividly translates the philosophical wisdom and ethical norms of tea culture, enhancing its preservation and dissemination. Utilizing animation art to establish standardized visual solutions, design innovative economic models for tea-tourism-cultural integration, and create a comprehensive dissemination matrix for tea culture animation are currently effective pathways to elevate public identification with Chinese tea culture and promote its widespread propagation.
