After Effects Testing for Titles

Raw Construct of Title
I have been working on a title for my new project and I think it would be interesting to share my experiences with after effects:

1. This Piece itself looks rather jumbled and sketchy, I myself see that every time I look at it. I have had some experience with after effects in the past but I found this one particularly difficult because it involved an additional camera layer which in turn required a lot of editing small details such as changing expressions manually by typing in numbers, which was perplexing to say the least.
Typing in values can be jarring at first

2. I witnessed a large amount of slowdown while creating this piece, this was due to the program having to render each frame on each layer with hundreds upon hundreds of different particles. I think I have actually learned something here in an interesting way. Patience is a virtue.

  1. Have you managed to render a completed version yet? Also, don't forget that the aim of this project is to allow you to demonstrate the ability to plan and storyboard; you're in danger of putting the cart before the horse... Make sure that you spend the time to put your planning together.
