Storyboarding fractals

 Having worked out a reasonable but unresponsive fractal generator I know want to start working on an animation showing what a fractal is. I think I’ll do the first draft in matplotlib but reckon I can probably start moving to something a little lower level as ultimately I have an matrix of colours so rendering it should be relatively easy. I’ve also now built a function to draw out a grid and the number in that so that helps with the first part of the idea  

  1. Title card over a fractal. I need better colours for my fractals.
  2. Fractal desolves to nothing, a matrix of zeroes appear.
  3. The numbers slowly start filling in, until we have a madelbrot in number form
  4. The numbers slowly start colouring in the colours scheme of the fractal. Slowly at first and then quicker and quicker. Whilst the colours appear the larger numbers get a little bolder and darker and the lower numbers a little paler and small.
  5. Next the background of the grid starts filling with the same colours as the numbers until the numbers are subsumed  
  6. Once this is complete the resolution of the madlebrot gets increasingly large, use a blur fade between each stage.
  7. We end by zooming in on a point to reveal another madlebrot, each step is reversed back into numbers.

Where do I go next?

Work has been an absolute pain in the arse for as long as I can remember, over many jobs and many people. Sometime it's been better than...
