hi,

I'm working with motion graphics now, so interesting to see some motion work on here.

I liked the 'mad cow' piece. The timing is nice and the blurs work well.
the reel ends in a odd place...?

the camera movement is slightly awkward in places. like when it zooms into the character on wheels.

Have you tried linking a camera to a null layer (as it's parent) and animating the null instead of trying to move the camera position around? I found this works much better than messing about with the camera & is probably the most useful thing I've learnt whilst using AE.

the 'choose a song' bit - this could look good if the background didn't totally shift around between transitions. I just don't think that works when you see that the background is sliding about.

quite like the treatment of the resident logo, apart from the feathering. and maybe could be slightly faster.?

If you experiment with lights and really make use of the 3d space it will look a bit less like flash and more like motion graphics.

good work though.

Thanks for the comments.

Some of it is in flash, and that needs replacing with AE.

I'll get back to work

Hi,

The motion clip has really good motion material and is very well done - To make it better --i would import the movie into AE and put some noise - or grain into the comp - and maybe make a blurry mask - just to add a bit of glam - color - style into it .

Either way -- this is good material

that's pretty cool, but the movie seemed to be a bit jerky on my machine (XP/2mb broadband) though it streamed fine - I don't normally have problems with video, but it might be worth checking on a few different setups.

otherwise, top stuff!

i'd sort your text out as well:

We create animation and motion graphics for movies,
commercials, CD Roms, DVDs and anything other media
that requires movement.

In what way please?

[seen.to]

In English would be my guess?

[oli]

should be = " and any other media that requires movement"

[breadlegs]

oh yeah, i completely missed that.

Cheers.
