It was definitely a brand new and thrilling experience when we saw our works on the building for the first time.
Act 3:
Act 3 was my main part and I learnt a lot of new skills with After Effects. It was my first time doing frame by frame animation for the petal blooming and it worked out for the best.
Very fun experience and project, to be able to see our works on a historical building for everyone to see.
