Final Custom Machinima and Found Machinima



To clearly express the way in which explosions have a exponential mass effect was not easy. It was difficult to make sure the viewer could grasp the concept of how two forces that oppose each other, continually increase mass of the explosions in a upwards scale that reaches climax where it doesn't matter which side wins, cause both are eliminated by the sheer mass of such a explosion. There is false notion that the side who let off the climatic explosion is victorious, but rather both sides and everything else are at a loss. I showed one force that was apparent throughout the clip, showing their loss and at the end I introduced a solitary figure that represented the other opposing force also being at a end, in my own view as well the lava falling from the sky is showing how everything else is at a loss, because it is like the blood of a planet and for it to be raining down on the surface means that the planet is also at a loss.



A few problems were encountered along the way for this documentary. The first was that in 30 seconds it was too hard to capture different levels of explosions and their effects on the 3D field, the second was that none of the explosives in GMod couldn't destroy my building. Instead I resorted to skip showing the increase of explosives as a exponential and instead went to the climatic point in that hypothetical exponential curve, the point where the mass effect of explosives is at its greatest, nuclear explosions.
