[COP3]further development

Since last week Mike suggested me to change the spot light scene into two separate scenes to show how oxygen could be taken into the body through nose and mouth, I remake the scenes. Although the major difference are simply the movable/unmovable characters, I think the impact is big enough to change the perception of audience.

The scene to show that all the air is sucked into the trachea and the moving oxygen particles seems very lively compare to the still motion. The movement gives them a sense of free will and showing a direction of where they are heading to instead of floating randomly. Since there are quite a lot of things I need to maintain the same in both animation just as to make it a fair test, I could not make the 'more animated' one have better narrative or have totally different performance therefore it looks a bit bland if watching two whole animation. However, it kind of proof that moving characters are much powerful to make audience feels that there is a personality in the object. By doing so, even without narrative or human character or dialogue, i can successfully create a influential object character.

Also with the aid from the surrounding, it makes things which no thoughts more performative and change the entire atmosphere even though the message and the plot is the same. What is needed to be improved is the amount of performance. Stepping out of being a fair test, the plots needs to be changed for the movable object because I think the non-narrative plot is unable to support the large amount of information hidden inside the character. It might be better if introducing more interesting scenes for example with different perspective or events so as to provide better stages for these moving characters to perform. On the other hand, it feels normal to put the less animated characters and the simple backgrounds together because there are less information around and audience might feel more comfortable to look at. Therefore I think once you decide to make a object move, it is necessary to have other moving backgrounds or characters together in order to make the story more it more fluid.
