REFLECTION
Through this final group project, I've experienced ups and downs with my fellow group members, they have been nothing but the best at encouraging each other while still giving the necessary feedback on my work. Animating 9 frames non-stop was a lot of work, however, it has taught me so much during the process, I've grown to understand the complexity of After Effects and the possibility this animating software brings. I've learned to keep my consistency, not only in my animating work but also in my work time, which is important for any designer, to be consistent and focused. It was overall fun and eventful to work on this project and would love to work on similar projects like this in the future.
