Objective
Create a short explainer video about capacitive
finger sensors.
Storyboard
Since there was a 30 second time-constraint for this video, I had to figure out how to fit in all the necessary information while still keeping an easy-to-follow pace.

Takeaways
Pacing is extremely important.

This piece was extremely challenging due to fitting a lot of information into a short amount of time. I spent a lot of time researching capacitive finger sensors so I would be able to confidently pick and choose the key elements for the video.
