Abstract


Science fiction is the experimental field of ideas, and the sci-fi city in animation is also the experimental field of future space. In the era of digital media, the sci-fi city scenes in 3D American sci-fi animation movies have become more exquisite and complex. American science fiction animation insists on building a future space with human civilization trajectory, and renews the aesthetic style of science fiction city with rich imagination, collage city style and powerful digital rendering capabilities. This article focuses on architectural modeling and city space in American 3D animation movies, and studies the sources of architectural inspiration and architectural design principles. And it also explores the new spatial form and new aesthetic characteristics of the science fiction city space under the digital technology.
