CPS week 5 Objects are not exhausted

Theme

Objects are not exhausted

Context

This theme made me think of quantum mechanics and a basic famous experiment called a double slit experiment. In short, the experiment finds that light particles would show an interference pattern like a wave when they are shot to a wall through 2 slits. The picture below from Wikipedia shows the wave pattern. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment

And when you flap the water by two hands, it will show the same pattern on the surface. They are different things but will show the same pattern in their movements. I think this point is interesting, and I just imagine that all things place in an intangible wave which makes objects relate to others. The wave influence objects movements and also is influenced by objects. So the wave in my mind also likes a net connecting everything.

Method

I draw a net where hangs some objects in different layers first and then animate them frame by frame in Photoshop and compose the frames.

Response

I made an animatic as the outcome of this theme. The story is that some objects hanging on a net and one of them, a phone, causes a series of results and destroyed everything on the net in the end. I want to use a serious of results to show all the objects relate to others and one small thing may destroy the whole. During creating, I think a lot about what kind of things I use in the animation and how to layout them in order to make a small movement leads to a series of worse and worse results.
