Sending Bits

I made this movie about how remote controls work and transmit information to control other devices. They start by sending binary information of zeros and ones called bits through the medium of infrared light. I took almost a week of class time and one lunch to complete this short movie. I learned some new information that I never knew about remotes, for example, the first remote only had four buttons. The research segment was fast and only took one class. Editing the video took a maybe four classes.
