the guy in the video talks a little like elmer fudd.

slow and jerky but you are grasping the concepts nicely

overall it's a very nice piece, I actually would say it's an exceptional piece. the only thing that really bothered me to any great degree was the voice over. the mix sounded hot and muddy, so remember, audio is 70% of what you see. other than that excellent, clean work.

thanks for the compliments. as I mentioned earlier, i am still fine tuning the video in my "spare" time, so i will work on the audio....thanks for mentioning...

I won't comment on the audio, but I found the typography really grating.
The whole thing seems let down by choosing that typeface that looks like the bastard child of impact and helvetica.
Apart from that one aspect, I really liked it and think it would be brilliant if the type was better.

i would like this a million times better if there was no narration...

given the possibility that I end up changing the typeface.....any suggestions as to what you might have used?
- Baskerville0
I agree about the typeface but the swirls are nice.
Any link to this itunes tutorial?
- leanmean0
I agree with the font issue.
It's a good learning piece. I see alot of tutorials in it. Which is good for learning. When you get more advanced, play with the plug-in settings, they look very stock.
Keep it up! Practice, practice, practice and then in a year you'll look back at this piece and say wow, I sucked.
: )
Have fun with it. It gets easier and more fun everytime.

I agree with bottlerocket... work on the typography. This is a very nice piece:

try to keep away from obviuos effects like shine, starglow; 3d stroke and particular (or use in a les ' preset' way).
besides from that a first good try in mographs

definitely nice for a first piece. one thing that may help, try adjusting the velocity of your movements. like when he's brushing his teeth, throw some ease onto your keyframes controlling the text's motion and the same with the sequence prior to that, around the time when "Descartes" comes onto the screen. the movement's a little abrupt in places. it's a lot better towards the middle where it's just the ipod trails and text.
