SCENES
This is Mayor Nooks, the character who delivers the narration and introduces the cell and organelle topics. He provides a face to the voice, and immerses the audience in the world of Cell City.
Here are the organelles of the cell. Each are color coordinated to make identification easy. The vibrant, colorful designs are used to capture attention.
This is an organelle information page. Each organelle has a specific page that coordinates with the color of the organelle. This is where the bulk of information on each organelle is displayed. The unified, clean format of the pages help with memorization of the material.
In the same information page layout, the transformation from organelle to city piece occurs. It happens the same screen in order to make the connection for what building is now representing the organelle.
