{Adap&on B} Interim Crit

Danny Rollings

The Task To adapt Elements of the Periodic Table as characters.

Chosen Elements

Helium, Hydrogen and Carbon.

The Final Aim To produce a possibly animated, fully textured character turntable.

OR

S&ll turntables of two textured character models.

Helium

About Helium Lighter than air. A noble gas, not very reac&ve (if at all). Used in party balloons, and blimps. Glows purple when electrically excited. Can be used as part of neon signs.

Hydrogen

About Hydrogen Extremely flammable.

Large quan&&es used in rocket fuel.

Low reac&vity at low temperature, high reac&vity at high temperature.

Joins explosively with Oxygen to make water (H2O) via pla&num / electric spark.

Largest bomb ever = Tsar Bomba, a Hydrogen bomb (mushroom cloud 7x the height of Mt Everest).

What about the colour scheme? Rather than pulling my colours from those usually related to different emo&ons, I chose a more scien&fic approach.

I merged Hydrogens reac&vity differences with the colour of stars at different temperatures.

Stars combine Hydrogen atoms to make Helium, Helium atoms to make Carbon and so on

To me high reac&vity/temp translated as angry, and low reac&vity/temp as sad.
