One of the fascinating things I'm learning from this SFX course is the difficulty in creating a great movie introduction title sequence. I feel the more I learn the more I find my respect for those behind the scenes grows. In trying to produce one that adheres to the rules of constructing a title sequence with examples to prove ones work, while at the same time making it creative and different, it has proven a lot more difficult then I had originally planned.
The amount of work that goes into such an endevour is quite remarkable, the amount of time spent fixing it after changing something slightly is a little more annoying. Trying to get the camera moving smoothly can get fiddly when you have to move it around a 2D object and then once you decide to alter your idea, you have to make the changes just right or redo it all over again. I think I've spent more time trying to get a 14 sec clip working then the time creating a 3D model with texturing. Still, I've learned a number of neat skills in After Effects that I had never thought was an option and as such it is turning into a rather interesting (if rather stressful) experience.
