Needs to synch up to the music a lot more.
It seems like you're still struggling with the basics. Here's a few tips.
- set music to stream when making music vids. Then you can animate in another layer and listen to what spot the music is at at that point, whilst you're drawing.
- Abstract, non-representational shapes can be cool. But you need to try and time stuff to the beat. When there's a loud beat, stuff should move suddenly or there should be a scene change. Having stuff move at a constant pace just seems like you're ignoring the beat of the music.
- Use default gradients only as a starting point. Make your own gradients.
- Don't have looped graphics for non-looped music and call it a music video. As mentioned above, you need to be sympathetic to the beat and pacing of the music. Either animate to the end of the song or just stop the song wherever you get to.
I do like the idea of using simple shapes, lines and curves for a music vid but you need to be a bit more stylish with the graphics and synchronise up a lot more to the audio.
As you're only 13, you've got a long way to go so don't worry too much. If you're doing this to entertain yourself and you enjoyed making the music flash - that's great!
If you want to entertain others though, I hope the tips I gave help you on your way.
All the best,
