Ok, So i started doing some video editing 1 Month Ago (FCP), Im Working on a personal project for using in some of my gigs (Im a part time Vj).
Playing around with the camera I started making what I least I thought where faces with my hands (?). And I thought it was kinda like a dark theme wich is usually the theme at drum n bass events (at least the more popular ones) and I came up with this.

It looks nice , but a whole clip would be boring. The plants can grow better than that. Let the leafs plop. Now its just a mask you're pulling.
I dont know what it is butt your movie sticks sometimes. Is your movie on 25fps?
Good job!

in stead of using the mask,make a new layer with strokes and alpha mask the plants.make the leaves in a differen comp and et them scale up from 20percent to hundred...and to a ease out-ease in.put this comp in the main comp
maybe some color variations..a bit of camera shake..make it bit more exciting.

i like it. for vjing it's perfect i guess. although maybe that graphic stuff could be a bit bigger since you could lose it on a bigger screen since it's quite thin etc. i really like the hand face thing though as a concept.

"faster and more intense"
- uhohseangettio0
I believe it is too, repetitive...other than that the concepts preety cool

Thanks everyone for the comments, Im kinda newbie in after effects so do you guys always use ease in and ease out at the beggining and finish keyframe of an animation?
I always use at the start only, what is the best way?
Redwood I will try the pop on the leaf thanks!
It is a bit repetitive, I need to get more shots I think.
Anything else?

that is doope
really like it, yea i agree a whole music vid might be a bit repetitive but as a VJ display would be HOT!
really cool, i like when u start doubling up the hands, great start.

really nice effect
- quamb0
nice idea- especially for vj'ing vid. dont like the orange skin colour agains the black though - it could be even more intense/strange if you change the colour ie- wtf is that? fingers??
- vburo0
yeah, really great concept, and more appropriate for veejaying then to be used as a videoclip.
you could make it more intense indeed. play with contrast and light more. maybe some faster cuts here and there.
somehow that logo made me think of ninjatune.

They are my hands, just making faces and none sense stuff,
I did adjust the levels and colors a little just for the back drop to be pure black.I kinda see the similiarity to ninja tune, if you erase the ninja and just grab the eyes really.
The logo is inspired of a japanese symbol, that I modified to make it look like a face, then placed on a square that suggest the shape of a tv, :)
