Perspective and field of view tests
Eye Loop Tests
Before I went into college to conduct some experiments with the magnifying glass I did a few experiments of my own at home using an eye loop. Here is the video of those tests.

About the Story
- Why do these people exist in the first place?
- How come they have not made themselves aware to us humans?
- How long have they been on earth, have they been around as long as we have?
- If they chose to hide from us then where in the world would be the best place to hide, being the least population of humans.
- Or are they right under our noses and we havent been aware of them at all?
- Who are their enemies, and who are their allies?
- What is their purpose or reason for flying around in military like insect mechines?
I think to answer these questions would be a little beyound the scope of what I am trying to achieve for my Final Major Project because I am aiming to achieve a display of skill as a special effects artist and not as a writer. So the important question is; Where would they live? this would determine the look and feel of the video because it involves they main charector flying an Insect Mech in and around plants and wilderness.
So I had a little look around on the internet and found out from several sites that the least populated areas in the whole world are Mongolia, Nambia, Australia, Botswana, Suriname, Iceland, Mauritania, Libya, Canada, and Guyana!
Some of these places actually surprise me because I didnt think that Australia would be the third least populated place in the world, and I certianly didnt think that Canada would be on the list! LOL. Below is a little chart that I snagged from the net.
