My data source is the Motor Vehicle Collision - Crashes data source from data.gov. This tracks motor vehicle collisions in NYC https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/motor-vehicle-collisions-crashes I will show the different types of collisions, results, and causes in a chart that can meaningfully show and tell the user about the likely hood and incident types and results. I would like to provide my data as a pie charts with different types of wheels as individual sections, or perhaps as different size cars in a bar chart. I will have a time slider where you can move it and data will change as time increases. Car accidents are no joke, and the outcomes are always never positive. My mood will be a gloomy one, with dark tones and colors, non-vibrant colors, and information and text that brings the user right to the point.

 Mood Mix, Assignment Number 1: I wanted to create a network of two movie file ins, with texts and nulls following them into cross. The cross would have its cross ability controlled by a slider. This slider will go through a panel, math, and then null to make sure it functions properly. The cross will be sent to a window panel so it can be projected onto the screen. The texts for each movie file in will properly represent the scenes they are trying to portray. I created this exactly as I expected to, with no other modifications or changes along the way. I wanted to include videos I have shot myself while I have explored the planet. One of the videos is from a trip I had to Wyoming where we visited Yellowstone national park. The other video is from right around Rochester along the Genesee river, at a boat launch. The Wyoming video is supposed to spark awe and amazement into the user, showing large scale and size compared to the world. The river video is supposed to be melancholy and...

 I wanted to create a network flow of two controls for the scene, a button that allowed you to pause/un-pause the video, and a horizontal slider that controlled the amount of blue overlay on the scene. What I created was super similar, with the only major difference being I used a vertical slider instead of a horizontal one. My TD flow was split into two containers, one for my controls, and one for my scene. In my controls, I started with the button and slider I needed for my scene controls. I hooked both of them up to panels, and then sent their info through two different respective paths. I send the slider through a math then a null, in order to convert its range from 0-1 to 0-5. I also sent the button through a logic and then a null, to make sure the button had a toggle effect, not just a hold down one. In the other container I used a movie file and a constant for my effects. The play in the moviefilein is connected to the button, and the blue rgb in the constant is connected to...
