I'm not sure I should even be posting this here, because animation wise, it's really not that much. All I did is rotated the directional light. However, I was wondering, given that my *point* is to emphasize the effects the shadows make/reveal, if light animation along is enough, or does it look a little dry. That is, should the shapes move a bit as well?

Just curious to get some input. I'm going to be using this logo animation alot when I begin animating, not just for this brief video. Thanks.

I quite like the shadow stuff. It's clever, maybe too clever? I don't think the shapes should move. I like the idea of the light shifting to reveal the message.
