Manim animations on analysis-related topics #15

Open PaulCauchois opened 2 years ago

PaulCauchois commented 2 years ago

Hello, my name is Paul, I'm a student at the University of Rouen, in France. I didn't contribute anything to SOME1 last year, in part because I'm way too anxious about my spoken english to say actual words, but also because I didn't have a topic idea that really motivated me. I'm hoping both those problem can be resolved by having an expert to work alongside with.

Portfolio

I have made a few videos using manim before, my most ambitious project was this set of animations used as background during my final presentation on dynamical systems.

Target topic categories

I myself am much more interested in topics related to analysis (real or complex). Dynamical systems was the perfect choice for me because it lends itself to beautiful visualizations. I was on a very strict deadline when I made the above (around a week), but if I were to make something like that again I would be able to do much more. I'm not extremely strict about what "analysis-related" is, it can be as far as probability or measure theory, to give some examples, I just don't think I'd be able to make interesting visuals for a topic like computer science.

Target medium

I'm hoping to make a video, with the voice-over being done by someone more qualified and with hopefully a better spoken english than mine.

Contact details

You can contact me through email, at paul.cauchois@univ-rouen.fr.

Additional context

I'm in the middle of a consulting job, which means work on the video wouldn't begin until the start of July, but after that my schedule will be completely open, which means I'll be able to sink a lot of hours into that project.

Hey, I'm Anabil here , student at Indian Institute of Technology Madras. I was thinking on the lines of statistics, more specifically PCA (principal component analysis). maybe if you're interested hit me up on : anabilkanungoe@gmail.com

How about interpolations? I think the animations would be straightforward and the topic is also very handy

I don't have a whole video idea, but I'll just leave a small topic suggestion: nonstandard calculus

Here's some examples of what diagrams normally look like (from here):

Hello Paul,

If you're a student in Rouen, I assume that you are also french? :) I'm looking for an "animator collaborator" for an idea I've submitted here: https://github.com/leios/SoME_Topics/issues/54 And this idea seems completely in line with what you're looking for too !

(if you want to learn more about this topic, a manim video already exists about it but I'm sure we can treat it differentely, giving more insights about the model here and here, and some videos in french but they are not very insightful or "catchy" since they are very academic, like here. Let me know here, by mail of on the 3b1b discord if interested, or if you want more info! (and we can speak in french if you're french :) )

Bye !

Hey Paul! I'm an undergraduate student with a good background in mathematics and I have an idea you may be interested in. It's about the Implicit Function Theorem. This is a theorem which is "easy" to see that it is true, but sometimes the formalism is too obscure and the proof hard to understand (at least for many of my classmates). I've been working on it for a couple of weeks and I do think that it can lead you to nice animations. My idea will need to make 3D animations mainly, are you comfortable with it? Let me know if you're interested n.n

Hello Hello! my name is Rudra Sekhri and I'm a high school student from Australia! I might not have the "hottest" idea, and my idea is definitely a little simpler from everyone else (for more info, feel free to read the issue #138). But I was wondering if we could collaborate on a simple, yet effective video to explain the essence of composite functions using ducks and duck-eating dragons!!!

Hello

My name is Nathan Kassees and I'm an engineer in US Colorado. I've posted a topic #173 that relates complex analysis in power systems to geometry. Please let the know if you're interested.

neondata commented 2 years ago

https://github.com/leios/SoME_Topics/issues/205 This could be a topic of interest for you, It could start very simple and then grow according to the ability to work with manim
