How I made Math: Final Boss

Here it is. The video I’ve been working on for 5 months. Here’s how I made a deity of math in the Desmos graphing calculator. This video’s a bit fast-paced, so feel free to pause and read some of the notes I put throughout the video if you want more details. Otherwise, sit back and watch the fireworks as I explain everything that went into making this massive graph. This video might be the most ambitious project I’ve ever made. It may not look like much considering it’s only 16 minutes long, but putting together all the animations and effects was a nightmare. I also ended up having to start all over at one point because I just didn’t like the direction it was going. I even made a custom boss theme for the opening animation section. I was originally going to use Twisted Garden for it but then decided to make my own theme for it. I should have a full song ready at some point but I’ll have to see where my motivation takes me for that. Factoring in everything I wouldn’t be surprised if this video took me over 100 hours to make. Hopefully videos won’t take me that long to make in the future. Hope you enjoy it!
