Here's my concept map

ree

I got the Idea for my animation from the different forms of sugar that breaks into glucose and fructose in your body and I've related it to the obesity and other health issues that happens when you consume too much sugar.


Here's my 200 word Proposal for the animation:


"My project will be about the good and the bad of sugar. Based on my research I saw that glucose is mostly harmless in your body but fructose is the problem, It turns into fat and prevent insulin from working properly, thus no glucose it being turned into energy resulting to more fats accumulating in the body. Fructose is also the reason why people with high sugar level gets diabetes as it creates fatty acids that keep on circulating through your blood and liver in a vicious circle.

My approach to showing this in the animation is to make the inside of the body like a factory and the insulin will be the workers carrying the glucose and burning it like charcoal to produce energy in the body. My aim is to educate youngsters about fructose through my animation in a fun and interesting way so that they will not get any health issues because of sugar.

For my illustration style It will be a bit inspired by comics like Asterix and Obelix, animation like Phineas and Ferb, Johnny test or Futurama."





And here's my finalized video.

The feedback that I've got was that it was easy to understand and the style of animation is good however I could have improve the textures and colours and stuffs.



For my Exploring Sugar project I continued from "obesity" from the concept map and I related it "sugar diet" which I also links to other more healthy sources of sugar mainly "fruits' and "honey". Fruits and Honey have a lot of nutrients and fibers and that's what makes them a healthier choice than sugar as they are digested less easily and your blood sugar level will not rise suddenly and also they will make you feel full for a longer period of time. I also took reference to Home Chef and Blue Apron and decided to make something similar to them that will help people to extract sugar out of fruits or honey at home with a sort of cooking kit. My target audience will be a more mature audience, mostly people who already have diabetes or want to control their sugar intake and I will give them this solution which is more healthy.

So I tried to sketch a brief idea of the delivery box, the fruits will be kept in packets just like what Home Chef does and I may also add some designs on both the the box and the fruits. I also made a little seperation where I will keep the receipt and the Guide of how to make the sugar just to keep them safe from any water that may come from the fruits. Other things that I will also need to include in that kit will be baking powder, to use when grinding the solidified fruit juice into powder so that it doesn't stick together, and a piece of cheese cloth to work as a strainer.

And I also tried to sketch an idea of how I can expose it during the mini exposition that we will have to do next semester. So I will put the kit and everything on display and I will also include the sugar on the table for the audience to be able to know how the sugar tastes like and I may also put some cakes made of this sugar for the audience to know how it's like when you cook with it. And on the background I will include a poster to explain everything.


The comments that I got on this one was that it does has a good connection with my animation project, however it does not seem realistic in a way that it does not seem like people will buy it. So the advice that I've got was maybe turn to a diet plan something like an app or make a market research or talk to people with diabetes and learn what difficulties they have and try to solve it.
