First ever attempt on my Individual Shot - Creating pop-up interface

Before I even started on my work for my Individual Shot, I went on YouTube to search for HOLOGRAM Tutorials. I watched quite a few of the AE tutorials and I was most pleased with a tutorial by ECAbrams. I learnt how to do the "LOADING SCREEN" and the flicker from his tutorial. The reason why I chose to follow his tutorial is his work resembles the "POP-UP SCREEN" effect that I want. By the way, he has more tutorials on his channel. Please do check out his channel for more Kinetic Typography Tutorials. :D

Anyway. On my first attempt on my work, I managed to finish doing the interface in two days. At first when I tried out, it was not that easy as I thought. It was quite tedious... I have to rearrange the position of the interface so that it looks "POP-UP" and more appropriate. To do so, I used grids to help me position my interface.

Next step was creating the LOADING SCREEN, I used circles to form the outer and inner rings of the loading screen and used the trim paths to make them move simultaneously. For the loading bars inside the outer circle was formed by multiplying the number of copies of the rectangular bar and making them repeat in  rotations. To make the effect of the screen has finished loading, the shapes and word "LOADING" fade away as they move towards other positions.
