**Design challenge**: To differ from [[DESIGNS/ToyWorldsAtlas/D-Atlas_Doc|Atlas_D]], colorants should represent formal story elements (myth, intrigue, even momentum). Not emotions or existentials -- these are the theme of the next atlas.
## Tasks
**Refinements**
- [ ] *Change*:
- Dream -> resolution / return
- (climax, obstacle, crisis, ordeal, Resurrection)
## Juice Effects
**The theme:** breaking the fourth wall
**1st row**
- [ ] CONFLICT:
- [ ] ORDEAL:
- [ ] LOSS:
- [ ] EXPOSITION: 3D words (Rationale text) drop from top / dark background, and words flow as in Star Wars
**2nd row**
- [ ] RISK:
- [ ] DUTY:
- [ ] SUSPENSE: star's face turns black (no eyes or mouth seen)
- [ ] ALLURE:
**3rd row:** Volume effects
- [-] DREAM: Rainbow effect
- [-] INTRIGUE: Cooling, blue filter / Matrix-ish, green filter
- [-] MEMORIES: Sepia filter
**4th row**: Decor
- [ ] MYTH: 2D Bubbles / 3D stars flow at the player
- [ ] OBSTACLE: Credits-based star-flowers of different colours appear and rotate over the UI for 2-3 seconds.
- [ ] OBSERVATION: A sun with a face appears, moves eyes left-right, and disappears / or stays as a sticker next to the rules
**5th row**: Camera effects
- [ ] RETURN: ProgressBar & MENU drop off screen, the rest is rotated 20 / -20 degrees by Z
- [ ] TWIST: The star rotates by x
- [ ] MOMENTUM: Canvas objects and the star fall -> black screen -> lerps back -> objects back in place
_Camera effects_
Colour effects must be in one row. Focus effects can be in another row
- Scene turns B/W (LOSS?)
- Blood filter, etc.
- Pink bubbles (CHARM)
- Brightness <> Darkness
- Diffusion
_Meta-reference_
- The camera is inside the circle of pre-rendered screenshots. On button, the camera rotates by x. Seems like a sped-up transition.
- Camera rotates by Y, and move back in a moment. As if someone was fixing the camera
- The star falls / runs from the screen
- A cigarette butt at the corner
- Damaged film effect (shader or animation with a transparent panel)
- Credits fall and run and unreadable speed
- Camera zooms in, moves a bit, and zooms out (OBSERVATION?)
*Star*
- star's face enlarges and winks
- MOMENTUM: the star torpedoes off the screen, and falls from the top in 2s
## Localization
**Presented at**: Moscow Film School in November 2025 by Lada Shapovalova as part of Colour Theory in Film lecture
**Application**: To test students' knowledge of classic movie palettes (Moscow Universal University, Fine Arts class).
**URL**: [CloudFlare](https://twacrl.pages.dev/), [GitHub](https://loikarinkit.github.io/TWACR_WebGL_Rep/)
**Task**: The puzzle needed to be available in web. Because Json technology doesn't work properly with WebGL, the Orangery scene was removed, the starfish's animation was simplified, and the scene restarts on "Next Toy World" button. The build was uploaded to CloudFare Pages and Git.
- Another iteration suggested creating a unified scene, where Orangery is another Canvas layer. However that the education goal didn't need a more complex design.
