...And Remove All Doubt (Animation Proposal)

Scientific Demos

When it comes to explaining science, one of the greatest tools used today is animation. Animation allows for an interesting view into a world that at times can be hard to just explain. Sometimes showing slides or diagrams can break the connection between the presntor and the audience. Animation has helped to strengthen this connection.

A lot of the demos show today are animations, whether its "how to" demos or just visually stunning examples of the scientific world, scientific animations are everywhere.

Movable Graphics

There are tons and tons of examples of Movable Graphics out there in the world and on the internet. Choices all the way from animated "Logos" to simple little animated "gifs". I chose to look at these animated gif, their purpose, their accessibility in terms of finding and use, and also their overall appearance.

Animated gifs are extremely abundant and even easier to find and download. They were mostly used to give little bits of movement to static websites. They were very popular when everyone was customizing their Myspace pages, but for the most part, these little gif are usually annoying and fairly ugly. While there are some nice ones out there, the majority of these little gifs are quickly thrown together and have no aesthetic value.
