Hi all,

This animation is of a simple optical integrated circuit, in this case an
all-optical router. The main requirements are that the animation get a
scientific point across to an intelligent lay audience, be visually
appealing, and be no larger then 5MBs. For the visual style I was aiming
for an electron microscope effect.

I need to fix the spelling mistakes in the captions, and I think I'll add
labels in sync with the captions so the viewer knows which component I'm
talking about at each step. I also need to add in the optical fibers I
mention in the captions.

If anyone has any feedback or constructive criticism I'd love to hear it, I
have no doubt you all at least pass the intelligent lay audience test :p
