News Unit: Second AFX tutorial

During this tutorial I learnt so much from Fergus. 

 We went through after effects and explored the 3D option, We also experimented with the bevel options which could enhance texts and objects and create depth to anything that you have in after effects. This really opened my eyes to the possibilities to how I can enhance the logo and texts that we have in the current graphics.

 Was able to apply this to our texts after we found them to be quite boring.

 For saskia's animation, She was able to change the bevel and create depth.

Next steps;
To continue to use the bevel effect to create a continuous, dynamic effects.

I then proceeded to doing the same.   I was using coloured, oil based clay for mine. I was then required to sprinkle flour over mine to thicken the layer of the latex. I would repeat that until I was happy with the thickness. In the same tutorial, she moulded teeth for her zombie and I thought it would've been cool to do the same. ...
