A gold 3D New Year countdown for After Effects (2160x3840, Vertical 9:16, 4K, 60 fps, 16 sec). The numbers 10 to 1 fly in one per second from a different angle each, landing exactly on the beat with a short flash and a few sparks. Then 2027 flies in and its digits settle one after another, followed by a golden ring, a bloom of light, confetti falling over the whole screen, star glints and HAPPY NEW YEAR. The gold is built from bands of highlight and shadow with real thickness, and a reflection sweep runs over it as the numbers tilt.
Edit the texts in the 01_Edit folder and change the gold colors on the Control layer.
