At first I thought there was some kind of oil on my screen. When the camera is still with the sun background it looks awesome, like it is cut out of paper. I think that would be a great style to pursue. If the title sequence reflects the mood of the story, I think textured backgrounds and muted coloring could work nicely.
Thanks for the encouragement! I really need to look into applying textures to my colors. Any good links on how to do that? I can google it, but thought I'd check with you first to see if you had any good references of your own.

Great work.
Thanks man! It was your work that actually inspired me to try animation in the first place. I stumbled upon it on YouTube and your tall man character was the basis for my first character I ever created. I still use your tutorial on character creation for every new character I create. Your encouragement means a lot!

I recommend to experiment with textures and masks in AS a bit, the result is just as good, and the textures can be linked to the elements so they move with them, which is a favourite of mine.
I really liked this video, and I agree with you. But it can be tricky.
In my last video I had images and textures and they did all kinds of crazy things once I introduced any camera movement. So bad, that I finally removed all camera movements in AS, and rendered the shots in 2K, then added the camera work back in Adobe Premiere.
Just a caveat to the original poster, that's all.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll see what I can do with it. Also, your Lebron skit is phenomenal!
