Ideas for the video (still in progress, everyone please add/edit)

Make two videos, one for the audio-less monitors, and another with audio. The one with audio contains interviews with mercury users.
Rough outline:
1. An introduction into discrete particle simulations.
2. An explanation of the unique features and advantages of MercuryDPM.
3. A showcase of the many past and current research projects made possible by MercuryDPM.
We should make video/picture material of as many validation projects as possible (that is comparison experiments <-> simulations), we need that anyway. We need to select which ones we choose for the video. Orange are some Mercury issues we can highlight:
1. Screw conveyor (Luca, Irana) complex walls, validation-by-prototyping
2. Rotating drum (Ant, Deepak, Kit) experimental validation
3. Wet shear cell (Sudeshna, Marnix) cylindrical geometry, rheology, contact modelling
4. Belt (Kasper) moving particles
5. Segregation (Anthony, Deepak, Thomas, Benyi?) cg for mixtures
6. Contraction (Deepak) maser, large scale
7. Head formation (Irana) maser, periodic boundary
8. Dry shear (Hao) pressure control
9. Impact on inclined plane (Chris, Thomas, Anthony) local micro-macro, inflow, outflow
10. Chute flows (Thomas, Ant) cg boundary treatment
11. Silo (Thomas) local micro-macro, non-spherical cg
12. Sliding/Rolling/Torsion (Thomas, Regina) validation of contact laws
13. Mixer (MercuryLab) industrial applications
14. Vibrated bed (Kit) applicability to gases
15. Clay particles (Arianna)
16. Fingering (Jonny)
17. Sintering (Thomas, Regina) contact modelling for processes of highly differing time scales
18. (Whatever Greenwich does)
19. (is there more?)
Attached is the proposal, which already contains some ideas.

We want three video's:

An MercuryDPM video without audio. Meant for a video screen (4-5 minutes)
An MercuryDPM video with audio. Longer. Contains interviews with mercury users.
An extension of the existing MercuryLab video. Add mixer simulations. Problem is, we don't have footage of real mixers.

An introduction into discrete particle simulations.
An explanation of the unique features and advantages of MercuryDPM.
A showcase of the many past and current research projects made possible by MercuryDPM.
