Pretty Flourishes

[Ace6470]

Made this in After Effects

 

Was going to do it in HD, but it took forever to preview... -.-

 

This is probably the first "successful" graphics Ive done. The flourishes are elements from VideoCopilot.

 

 

 

the compression desaturated the colors a bit, it should be a bit darker in a high quality version.

I need advice on how I can improve. XD

Whoa :shock: that's impressive! How difficult to use is after effects?

[Ace6470]

Well, its kinda like photoshop, but is time-line based.

 

 

 

It uses same principle of layers and effects(much like filters in PS), and it could be a pretty resource-hungry program if it is working on a big project.

Correction :thumbup:

 

 

 

 

 

Anyway.

 

 

 

<3 It's impressive, it's great to see people on a wide range of programs in use on the forums. The video itself is nice, but a little boring - if you are still getting used to the program, I would suggest http://ae.tutsplus.com/ .

Looks cool. Is the ground 3D? Or was it filmed?

It was a picture of a texture, I made it into a 3D plane.

Pretty well done indeed, although there's one thing that could be better:

 

 

 

The 'camera' tends to slow down on some points, it would be nicer to see everything in just one flow if you know what I mean.

 

At 0:04 there's a small stop, and there are also a few stops from 0:04 to 0:07.

 

 

 

I couldn't have done it better myself though, keep it up :)
