Outline of the Third Term Paper

Introduction

A.   The special effects of snow in both animated cartoons and live action films can sometimes be created inaccurately in both film and television.

B.    Thesis: The film, Jack Frost, and the animated cartoon, Spongebob Squarepants, both proved, that snow special effects has often demonstrated inaccurate physics.

Body Paragraphs

A.   The use of snow special effects was used inaccurately in Jack Frost.

a.     How the snow was used: The snow was used to make Michel Keaton’s character turn from a human into a snowman by snow spinning around him in circular wind motion.

b.     How the snow special effect was done: Computer animation used motion blur and cycling snow spinning animation to make Keaton turn from human to snowman.

c.     Why this use of snow special effects was inaccurate in physics: In reality snowfall falling from the sky cannot turn a human into a talking snowman.

B.    The use of snow special effects was used inaccurately in the cartoon, Spongebob Squarepants.

a.     How Snow was used: The snow was used to create a feeling of winter to depict how the weather behaves during hibernation. The snowfall occurred inside Sandy’s air dome house, which exists under the ocean.

b.     How the snow special effects were done: 2D animation was used for drawing cycling snowfall that fell diagonally across the camera plane.

c.     Why this use of snow special effects was inaccurate in physics: In reality snow cannot naturally fall inside someone’s manually built home. Snow cannot fall under the ocean.

Conclusion

            A. The special effects of snow can demonstrate the laws of physics more inaccurately then people may think.

B. Thesis: The film, Jack Frost, and the animated cartoon, Spongebob Squarepants, both proved, that snow special effects has often demonstrated inaccurate physics.

C. Snow special effects must appear believable.

D. People can break the laws physics for believable snowfall to help progress the story and help entertain the audience.
