# Creating an AddOhms Animations - Behind The Scenes


Pretty often I am asked about how I create the AddOhms animations. Currently, I'm working on the final part of the DIY Arduino Series. In the first part, I showed the elements of an Arduino schematic. The second part showed an overview of the PCB design. Finally, I will take the finished board and explain how to turn it on the for the first time. Lucky for me, there was a "mistake" on the board. This error gives some context for the episode.

I needed to explain how the Arduino Uno's (and Mega's) "auto-reset" circuit works. I did a live stream showing how I created the animation sequence for this explanation. Well, I started to explain. After almost three hours of streaming, I was only about half-way through the one-minute explanation.

### Watch on YouTube

While long, I think the stream helps to illustrate the kind of work I put into my videos. Speaking of which, I need to get back to finishing this one.
