Cornflour and water mix to produce a liquid. Solid. No, liquid. No, wait…

Director's Notes:

Solid or liquid? A mixture of cornflour and water can behave like either depending on how it’s handled. Taken from Planet Science’s own Little Book of Experiments.

SciCast Notes:

Great hair!

Walking around to the camera to show us that horrid gloopy close-up is absolutely the right thing to do, and I love the general sense of fun in this. Whoever’s banging their feet on their lab stool right next to the camera can stop, please, but apart from that this is a lovely, charming film. Nicely done.
