Nowadays, animation is one of the artworks; it enables the invisible image language to be the properties of imagery and visualization. However, colors possess great effect on the aspects of manifestations and visual communication. Particularly, the color of the role in the animated film relates directly to the expressions of image forming and story content of the character of animation work. It is one of the indispensable important factors in animation creations. In this study, we will further investigate the impact of color image on animation-scene design using the method of content analysis and tried to search for some guidelines on the application of color within the animated scene. The result showed that there were at least seven kinds of expressive characteristics, including the reflection, edge silhouette, light effect, regional, contrast, appeal, color cloud, etc., to be summarized according to the operational definition of color-image mode. Through these seven guidelines of color language, the audiences will rapidly understand the color meanings of animated scene design transmitted by the creator of animation.
