War of the Exponents: Making cartoons for mathematics!

So, I made my first animated video:

The Vision

Imagine that this video is the first in a series of short cartoons, each explaining properties of exponents. The second video (coming soon!) will feature the quotient property of exponents when Camp Denominator also discovers Exponent Technology.

Stepping back, what if this series of videos were integrated into a half-hour weekly Algebra show? A man can dream!

Creating This Cartoon

While I generated just about every asset through AI prompting, I assembled each of these assets individually-- combining them with real text, music and effects, character dialogue, and math concepts-- using Davinci Resolve. While I would LOVE to have an animator, I do not have animator money at the moment. It would be absolutely amazing to be able to have an animator I could turn to to make truly unique and handmade assets....

Next Steps

Up next, I will be continuing this cartoon series for the major properties of exponents reusing much of these same assets in novel ways. If you would like to support me in making videos like these, I do have a supporter structure (a la Patreon, etc) through my website: https://www.everyonelovesmath.com/supporter-plans. Supporters can join for as low as $3 a month and help me devote time to creating cool math videos. Eventually, I hope use the supporter funds for bringing on folks-- like animators-- who can help this vision come to life.

Feedback

I would love to hear feedback on this video! Let me know in the YouTube comments, or contact me through my website, everyonelovesmath.com.
