Burns also helped to develop inter-disciplinary data visualization courses with support from the <a href=\"http:\/\/acm.hawaii.edu\/\">Academy for Creative Media<\/a> (<abbr title=\"Academy for Creative Media\">ACM<\/abbr>) at <abbr>糖心Vlog官方<\/abbr> M\u0101noa and <abbr>糖心Vlog官方<\/abbr> Hilo.<\/p>\n<p>Burns said he had several discussions about the usefulness of animations to explain complex scientific topics with <abbr>糖心Vlog官方<\/abbr> M\u0101noa <abbr>ACM<\/abbr> Assistant Professor <strong>Brittany Biggs<\/strong>, including using animation as a user guide for people receiving the Aqualink Smart Buoy system to help track ocean temperatures and coral bleaching.<\/p>\n<p>Burns collaborated with <abbr>ACM<\/abbr> animation alumni <strong>Kalilinoe Detwiler<\/strong>, <strong>Gavin Arucan<\/strong> and <strong>Alexis Nelson<\/strong> to produce the video. Detwiler said that after receiving guidance from Burns and Aqualink, the team followed a production pipeline and used shot breakdown sheets from their <abbr>ACM<\/abbr> courses. They also used programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, <abbr title=\"Television Paint\">TVPaint<\/abbr> and Adobe Premiere Pro.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/manoa-acm-aqualink-animation-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"animated volcano on the ocean floor\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-129199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/manoa-acm-aqualink-animation-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/manoa-acm-aqualink-animation-130x73.jpg 130w, https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/manoa-acm-aqualink-animation.jpg 676w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;My favorite part of this project was seeing the direct benefit of art and design to enhance science,&rdquo; Burns said. &ldquo;<abbr>ACM<\/abbr> has provided excellent opportunities for students throughout the 糖心Vlog官方 system and really showcases the power of combining art and science. I think this project is a great reflection of that investment and goal, and shows how the skills our students develop can be applied to an array of industries.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Burns added, &ldquo;Gavin, Kalilinoe and Alexis were very professional and a pleasure to work with. The final product was excellent and the team at Aqualink are thrilled to have an animation how-to guide.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Detwiler said working on the project was a great team experience and looks forward to more opportunities to integrate the different disciplines.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When science and art, or any two disciplines, begin to collaborate, we are pushing traditional disciplinary boundaries and creating something unique that is based within two different schools of knowledge,&rdquo; Detwiler said. &ldquo;Animation was a great way to make the Aqualink system visually accessible for its users.
