PROJECT 7-Participation (due March 25th)

It seems like the transitions are  too quick; all the effects happen a little rapidly.  I like the effect where the shadow grows. (John Aromando)

I think the way you made the fire effect is pretty nice.  Maybe you could add a way for the words to enter the screen and then have the fire effect start. (Fishman, Matthew B)

The colors are much better now.  Good use of many frame changes and changing the angle of seeing the symbol come together. (Khan, Daniyal N)

Good use of having the words enter, emphasized, and then removed.  The gray fuzz is done really well and the changing backgrounds are nice. (LeClair, Evan D.)

Simple but nice. The entrances are all fine, maybe you could just add one more effect occur in the sky. (Ralph Perricelli )

Chris is right; it needs to be a little more pronounced.  Maybe you could add some sort of font size effect where the logo starts small and then dramatically gets bigger, or you could do something with individual letters. (Joseph Verducci)

I like the gradual "spinning" effect of the background.  I don't think a background fade to white effect is beneficial to end with. (Alexander Weitzner)

Response/Self Evaluation
I need to go back and make sure the volcano image fades in fully.  I think I would also edit a few more frames so the translation is more smooth.  I think I could add a different backdrop that could have some sort of moving effect or fade into another image.

Lesson 7 advanced- level cubes bonus.


Project 6 - Participation (my comments & my response)

I agree with Brian, the shadow should probably be shifted a little to the right or left. The font works though. Could possibly use a thinker outline or more contrast with the background. Idk if I like the fuzziness/clarity of the background as well.
Font works, contrast is good, color is pretty good, back drop is amazing. I like the location of the title too.
I really like the font and coloring of the word "light". Good contrast, simple and elegant.

The fire is amazing and the font clearly goes well with it. Only thing I feel like you could mess around with is the shade of red and texture.
I really like the colors used and the patterns within the shapes. However, the contrast with DNK and the rest is terrible, too much going on, maybe thicken the outline. The "Global Studios" needs a more tropical green to fit in as well.
I like the color theme of different blues, and the font does fit the name. There may be a little too much going on (shadows and bleeding) or just not enough contrast/outline.

You could use a little more spacing between the 2 words. And if the font effects are gonna be simple, (which is fine) it could use a symbol or backdrop to spice it up.

Very good use of color, alignment skills, and the yellow/golden swirl really adds to the title.

Simple and nice. I like the yellow with the blue and how the 'L' also acts like an underline effect for the entire title.

Response to Comments

After reviewing the two comments on my game logo, if I were to revise it I would look at a few more font options to give my title a littler darker of an impression.  I think a logo or backdrop would definitely spice the title up.  I would like to add an animated volcano that erupts and oozes lava.  The fire effect around I believe the other Matt’s title would work well with mine as well.
