Poster

Figure 3.2-1: Poster — Original A4 VS Adjusted 1080 × 1920, Week 5 (23/05/25)

Since the design elements provided are the same as our past DPI assignment, we were permitted to reuse the DPI design for this practical. I adjusted the canvas size to meet the current requirements and modified some elements to retain the movement of the original poster.

Video

Before importing into AE, I duplicated the PS file and merged the adjustment layers to their respective design element. This is to prevent confusion, as I find this software confusing as it is.🫠 Some of the layers went out of order after importing, so I rearranged them before starting work on the animation.
