Animation For Film: Create Eye-Catching Title Sequences

Antonio, This new version is feeling a lot better. The timing is working great. Keep up the good work and pushing yourself in After Effects. Cheers!

Hi Antonio, I agree with April, it is very good for your first AE project. I want to say that it is looking really good. I have a few comments that, if you have time could help you make the piece a bit more solid. 1- the first happy face that bounces over the word happy could be moved up a bit. right now it is creating a tangent with the lines. I'm not sure if you were going for that but tangents are usually avoided because they attract the eye to parts of your composition that you may now want the viewer to look. A solution would be to move the smiley face up a bit. 2 - April is right about the swirling text. It is hard to read. Try to slow it down a bit so that everything is super easy to read. you can animate it in and out fast. Just make sure when it's done scaling in that it is moving slow. 3- Again, after the flowers we don't get a chance to see the text before the globe takes over the screen. I would hold it a beat on the text. THEN after a beat or two the globe comes out and fills the screen. 4- That is all of the main issues. EVerything from here on out is just making sure it's how you want it. Take a step back and then ask yourself how you can improve something.

Thanks for your comment, I did a new version with some of your corrections. This is the "super-mega-final" version of this video. XD

Hi Antonio. Wow, impressive for a first project! I have a few comments that could maybe help - take them or leave them. :) 1) When the text swirls in a circle around the smiley face, it's difficult to read. Maybe a slower speed and/or a different font? 2) The dancing/bouncing flowers - are you going for a more psychedelic feel here? If so, it works. If not, I'm not sure the animation fits the text message. Maybe a single flower or similar, to align with the calming, happy tone you're after for the yoga message. This is more of a creative comment vs animation, so it's really up to your intent here. 3) For the text just after the flowers, about the world being happy, you don't get a chance to read it before the globe takes over the screen. 4) I really like the globe and it's transition to the word "yoga". Very cool!

Thank you April for your comments. I did a new version with some of your corrections. :D

Antonio. Very Nice sketches! I love how simple it all is with red and black on the white BG. Overall It feels great. I would play with the size of the red words that appear in the sentences. It's only a suggestion but the color change may not be a big enough pop. Or maybe they can animate in so that the audience notices them a bit more. Overall, it's coming along very nicely!

Great sketches Antonio. I like the incorporation of the world 'spinning' in the word YOGA.

Hi Antonio, nice sketches! I was wondering what your ideas are for the transitions between the images and text. Dissolves here? I like your overall clean look.

Hello everybody! First : Sorry for my English...Possibly I'll do some errors writing...:D
I don't have any video footage or something, but I'll try to do a small introduction to the word "YOGA". If in the future I'll get some footage from yoga, then I'll try to mix...
If someone can offer me a new idea, I'll be happy.

UPDATE:
This is the animatic but I don't know how to use photoshop to animate, so I only put all the images in a sequence.
