Age on a Future Year

Overview

A brief visual calculation of the age of someone born on 12‑08‑2004 as of the year 2026. The animation highlights the birthday, the target year, and the subtraction that yields the age, reinforcing the simple "year minus birth year" concept.

Phases

#	Phase Name	Duration	Description
1	Intro	~2s	Title fades in at the top: "Age in 2026 for a 12‑08‑2004 Birthday". A thin horizontal line appears to separate the title from the main area.
2	Show Birthday	~3s	On the left side, a small calendar page flips to display the date December 8, 2004 (highlighted). The right side remains empty.
3	Show Target Year	~3s	The left side slides upward to reveal a second calendar page showing January 1, 2026 (or simply the year 2026 in large font). The right side now displays the subtraction expression $2026 - 2004$.
4	Compute Age	~3s	The subtraction animates: the numbers slide together, the minus sign appears, then the result $22$ pops out in bold on the right. Simultaneously, a small age‑icon (e.g., a silhouette) appears next to the result.
5	Outro	~2s	The full result "Age in 2026: 22 years" stays for a moment, then all elements fade out, leaving only the title which then fades out as the scene ends.

Notes

• All animations are kept short; total runtime ≈ 13 seconds, well under the 30‑second guideline.
• No additional explanatory text is used beyond the equation; the visual steps convey the calculation.
• The scene uses a single Scene class in Manim; all objects are created and manipulated within that class.
• Colors: use a calm palette (e.g., soft blues for calendars, dark gray for the equation, and a highlight color like orange for the final age number).
• Transitions are simple fades, slides, and a brief “pop” for the final result to draw attention.
