Lost and Found

The software used is "After Effect" and "Indesign". In this project, I need to choose a sentence of around 20 words to create an animation, I picked texts from “The Great Gatsby”. After research some Inspirational images, I decided to create a soft and dreamy color palette. For typography, I want to bring ease out and distortion effects to build the animation. For the music, I choose slow but not boring background music. When I combine them together, this becomes what I was expecting at first.
Learning Outcomes:
Under my instructor's help, I become more familiar with After Effect. When I was exploring all the footage and the functions of AE, I learn while I am doing things. Also, I learned to always go research and collecting ideas before really doing things. It will give me a rough draft of what I want to do and able to tell me what I should be watch out.
