Hi Adywan,

I´m a young hobby writer/filmmaker from germany and í´m using after effects also, for some years now.

I think your stuff with the canyon scene is very well done, but I do have two little complaints anyway.

1. When the two star destroyers almost fly or drive into each other, there is the shot from the bridge room and you added this CAMERA SHAKE!!! Well, I have to say everything else doesn´t catch my eye in a bad way, because it´s done just right, but every time a young self-moviemaker or a young design or effects student is doing something with action and stuff, they always add those silly camera shakes, that never ever look real or good. I spot how you did it and possible with which plugin or effect or software. Please re-think this one, it makes the rest look cheaper than it is.

2. The hits of the laser and the spit of dust element, I belive from the action essentials pack. Nice idea for sure, BUT: We are in space und the dust elements are moving down too fast. There is no gravity or very little. The dust shoots out at a certain angle and it should either move up a bit or expand on the spot, but not move down so fast. Can you just turn the footage around or tweak it some other way???

Thanks so far for the great job you are doing and your motivation to keep going...

Möge die Macht mit dir sein :)
