After Effects Devlopment (First Attempt) Drop 1

Today I had a practice on After effects working with what I thought was my most simplistic Idea, I found the software challenging to use but after half an hour or so of getting your head around working the tools it becomes very logical. I tried to give each one of my falling letters accurate characteristics in relation to gravity and the well they fell. Using a faded backdrop helped to bring out the depth of my 5 seconds of film and make the video appear to be much less flat. I'm happy with the result so far but there's still some tweaking that I want to do.
