Contributions

Contributor or tool Role
Human project contributor Chose the topic from a course lecture; organized the physical explanation and its limits; set the creative direction; reviewed clarity, pacing, charge colors, spatial separation and the breakdown illustration; requested and selected revisions
Web-based GPT assistant Helped formulate the brief and coordinate production requirements
Grok Bot Assisted with scene and camera code, captions, synthesized music and effects, rendering and iterative production
Codex Assisted with public source preparation, documentation, portability work and viewing-copy checks

The project is credited as Scientific Animation Workflow. Personal identifying information and full private conversations are not included. Service names identify production roles. Grok Bot was announced in October 2026 to route tasks to back-end models including Claude Opus 5.5, but users cannot see which model handles each step, so the surviving records do not establish the model used for any specific part of this film. Names in reference-repository titles are not evidence of the model that produced this film.

Original project material

The scene, motion, typography and soundtrack are supplied as programmatic project material. The retained audio script synthesizes its score and effects with NumPy/SciPy and contains no external audio-file loader or music-model API call. The producer's handoff also describes the soundtrack as synthesized without outside samples. This is the recorded production chain, not an assertion of exclusive rights over an AI-generated style or every possible generated element.

Original code is offered under MIT; original film, audio content and documentation are offered under CC BY 4.0 to the extent applicable rights exist. Attribute Scientific Animation Workflow contributors, identify the material, link to the project and license, and indicate changes. Third-party components retain their own licenses; see the code license, media/documentation license and third-party notices.

Method references

The handoff records the following repositories and snapshots. These credits distinguish studying a method from distributing another project's implementation.

The producer reported no whole-line matches between selected reference material and the film's main scene, audio and rendering scripts. Line matching is not a complete originality or license audit. No reference repository, its full prompt collection or its toolchain is bundled here; adding their code requires checking the relevant terms.

Four Bilibili videos were proposed as aesthetic references, but the production record reports failed retrieval and no viewing or audiovisual analysis. They appear separately in the reference-access record.

Scientific background

The topic comes from course material and the contributor's physical brief. The explanation concerns established mechanisms, not a claimed invention. Two primary papers provide limited background support for the scientific scope:

These are contextual citations verified from publisher abstracts, not copied figures, bundled papers or a validation of the failure illustration.

Software and typography

The stack comprises Three.js, Puppeteer/Chrome, FFmpeg, Python, NumPy and SciPy. The recorded font families are Noto Sans CJK SC, Noto Serif CJK SC, DejaVu Serif, DejaVu Sans and DejaVu Sans Mono. Font binaries, browser installations and dependency environments are not bundled as project assets. Refer to the rendering instructions and third-party notices for their separate terms.
