I have been editing for quite a while now, and I am watching all these tutorial because I want to master after effects, and improve my skills. One of the things I noticed is that for this shot, a 3d scene is not essential. So if possible, I will try to replicate the project, but in 2d space, which is definitely possible.

Uhhh...that's why you can rewind videos! Having a bit more experience on them I find that they often move too slowly. I think Andrew has it down perfect....if both inexperienced and experienced user are (un)happy. LOL.

Great tutorial,
If this is for a website or dvd menu, is the navigation meant to be imported as a separate asset? And this movie would be imported into flash without the nav?
