      AFTER EFFECTS CLASS ASSIGNMENT 1

                           LOGO ANIMATION

We are told to create an original logo in Illustrator or photoshop and animate it in  After Effects. The animation needs to be long enough to communicate logo and short enough to hold viewers attention 15 to 30 seconds in length.

In my part I planned to make a 30 second video animation where I gathered at least 20 images of eagles of similar looks and layers of a logo done in Illustrator. I imagined the scene as an eagle flying in the sky in circular path with a scroll in its claws which the eagle will drop to the ground after the second round of flight. Here,at this point the focus of the camera will be alternately between the eagle and the scroll while the scroll was on its way to the ground and the diving to perch on top of pole and the scroll unfolding on the ground revealing the logo displayed on the scroll.

But I am late to realize  that I have involved myself to very ambitious project. It was overwhelmingly difficult. I was not able to even at least to assemble them into the timeline. I wrongly deleted files and have files that  I knew that it is there but After Effects keep on telling me you are missing two files since last saving.  I have my logo pixelated when placed in After Effects and have  to start all over again countless times and almost gaining no progress at all.  

Though the project was not completed yet I turned them in as instructed.  I will be working on them until I could honestly say its done.

Thank you very much.
