Love everything you're doing here! And it's encouraging that this is your first foray into after effects as it gives hope that I'll be able to do similar things with my AOTC edit :D

Did you learn everything about after effects from videocopilot?

How difficult was the waveform animation to do?

I really like the idea of the Executor being presented to Vader - being given command of the flagship of the entire imperial armada. This sense of attained power is unfortunately dissipated come ANH though, because we see he's become Grand Moff Tarkin's bitch :p
