FINAL - EXPLOSION MACHINIMA VIDEO CLIPS

THE FOUND MACHINIMA


THE CUSTOM MACHINIMA


Both found machinima and custom machinima aim to reflect the idea of two video clips (Battlestation Pacific and Combat: Episode 2) that presents a complex interplay of different effects of explosions in different environments (water, air, and ground) and additionally with human.

From the experiment, it appears that the effect of explosions on the ground caused the objects exploded in a radial direction. The radial explosion will be wider when a number of explosive devices increases. Moreover, it can be seen that the effect of explosion causes greater damage when many objects/human were constructed close to each other. The explosion caused fire and damage surrounding objects, particularly in light weight materials and human. On the contrary, the heavy materials did not have much effect from explosions. Porosity emerges when objects directly affected by explosions start to interact with surrounding objects.

Apart from the effect of explosions on the ground, another experiment on the effect of explosion in the air was also conducted. Explosions caused a sudden violent bursting, an intense flash of light, an enormous blast wave, and loud noise in the air. The explosion in water generated dynamic water waves and changed surrounding objects and environments. Whenever there is an explosion, it is hardly to ignore its devastating effects on human body. In comparison with body explosion in water, it can be seen that on the ground, the power of explosive devices has greater influential to human body. This may due to the density of water is greater than air.

The consequence of explosion is enormous no matter where it occurs. It effects on surrounding objects and human causing in damage or even death.
