    This was a challenging project for me, when I originally thought it was going to be very easy. In my past, I use to design 2D animation and television graphics using After Effects, but I quickly learned that I had forgotten a lot in 18 years time since I had last worked with the program. To become familiar with everything, I had to watch a lot of YouTube and online training tutorials to help me understand how to use the software. In the end, I loved making the video and it sparked a lot of creativity that I use to get when I designed 2d animation. I’m excited to have completed the project and I am now looking forward to my next project using Premiere Pro.
