Reflections:
The final video has strayed away slightly from our original plot, mainly because of the time constraint and some technical issues (and students just tend to finish their shit during the final week lol). Many effects were done soley in After Effect to safe render time, generally their results are mideocre. Rendering definitly needs more work, we didn't use ambience occlusion at all so the imagery is plain and flat (ugly is what i mean). As the class is already long over, we probably won't go back and rework the stuff, hopefully our next project will be much better. (cross fingers)
