How Seeds Wake
Six science frames emerge first as line work, then receive color in the same direction as the narrated process.
Narration and scene plan
Words determine the timing.
- Dry seed
A sunflower seed looks asleep, but it holds a tiny plant, stored food, and a protective coat inside.
Motion: Outline draws clockwise - Water enters
Water softens the seed coat. The seed swells, its cells wake, and the shell begins to split.
Motion: Blue wash follows water - Root emerges
The first root pushes downward, anchoring the plant and collecting water and minerals from the soil.
Motion: Root line traces downward - Shoot rises
Next, a pale shoot curves upward, powered by stored food before green leaves can make energy from sunlight.
Motion: Color travels up stem - Leaf opens
Above the soil, two leaves open. In sunlight, the young plant begins making sugar through photosynthesis.
Motion: Leaf fills from center - Cycle summary
Roots spread, the stem strengthens, and the sunflower turns toward light. One quiet seed is ready to make many more.
Motion: Six stages align
Production frames
A finite set of source images becomes the film.
Motion is created by repeatable page, drawing, layer, and camera instructions. Source images stay stable between rerenders.
