My final 60 second sequence I have produced shows different architectural achievements from ancient civilisations (Top 10 Ancient Structures). The video explores the use of 3D layering and Camera's, it is a very process driven video.
The positive points in this video is the backtrack which works well with the panning speed of the camera. The whole pace of the video also represents a documentary well where it focuses mainly on the imagery used something viewers will be most interested in seeing during the actual program. The type is bold and informative, it gives away just enough information to let the viewer know what they are watching. There is also a very good technical exploration of after effects.
Some of the points which stand out for improvement is the type, if i had more time i would of liked to use the alpha matt option on after effects, to produce textured type sampled from my imagery i had used already, this would help to make the type sit better within the animation and it would make the video feel more fluent. In a few cases the camera movements aren't very smooth and if i had more time i would of liked to push using the XYZ camera effect, something i didn't have enough time to study enough to get to work properly. One problem with this animation is I am not sure how well it fits in with a documentary if i had more time I would of liked to record a voice backtrack to talk over my animation to make it feel like something you would see on TV more. There are also a couple of minor errors still in the video, right at the end before it cuts to black you can see slight edges of the ending scene i have also not left the 'Ancient Structure' end scene on for long enough.
