I just think that the fir...So nearly there, Tom :)<br /><br />I just think that the first time we see the rotating spheres (karyogamy produces diploid nuclei) it comes and goes too quickly for comfort, so I suggest what you do is truncate the concentric circle footage at about 32 secs (actually just after, as there's a natural beat in the music which says 'cut to new scene') and then spend more time with the spheres before we see them divide. It might take a bit of shuffling, but that long concentric circle sequence does give you some wriggle room.<br /><br />Everything else, timing wise, feels pretty comfortable to me. Just wondered if, on some of the text inserts, if you could add in a moment of shake - not much, but just to lend some 'projection' shake? It's hardly important or deal-breaking - but that shake + some blur as if the focus is slipping might lend some additional authenticity - particularly on the opening titles, and on those shorter text inserts?<br /><br />Anyway - it's looking great, and it makes me smile every time. I'm smiling now!tutorphilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842833126210822641noreply@blogger.com
