It&#8217;s been a fun event for us every year, but this time our team took things up a notch by creating a fun and interactive &#8220;super power&#8221; animation. It was a combination of art, technology, and even some math behind the scenes.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the coolest part of our little project was that the animation grew and changed in real-time as students input their school and choice of super power, resulting in visuals that grew more dynamic with every student addition throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>It was fun to engage the students, share ideas, and answer a lot of great questions.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-277 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/brandhoot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/23550963_1832161503470078_6649273561757739213_o.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/brandhoot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/23550963_1832161503470078_6649273561757739213_o-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brandhoot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/23550963_1832161503470078_6649273561757739213_o-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/brandhoot.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/23550963_1832161503470078_6649273561757739213_o-150x150@2x.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-281'>\n\t\t\t\tReady for action at the S.T.E.A.M.
