Random Animated Transition Using Quranic Verses

In-between animated transition can be utilized for various purposes. Among others it can be used for screen savers on PC or advertising on billboard. In the case of advertising on the billboard, a series of video clip or still images will be displayed to the prospective users. Between these clips, animated transitions will be applied so that the change from one clip to another can be smoothly displayed. Currently various transition technique can be used for achieving this effect, mathematical-based interpolation such as linear or spline-based interpolation can be used. Similarly, nature movement pattern such as flowing water and flaming fire model are also utilized. It is widely known that Quranic verses give soothing effect to its listeners. However, not much has been studied on applying the soothing effect on visual medium. This paper looks at recreating the soothing effect on something which is visual-based. This sound-induced visualization re-creates the transition animation using Quranic verses recitation derived pattern as its model. Comparison is done with existing interpolation technique and nature based interpolation. Visual Attractive Rating experiments are conducted to measure the attractiveness level among each other. The results shows that the Quranic verses pattern can potentially produced attractive animated transition on par with general transition to be implemented for application such as advertising billboard or screen savers.
