Animation - Part 3 (setup)

The third part of my animation Is the first camera cut of the whole animation. It cuts from the x-wing tracking shot, into a first-person view shot from the x-wing pilots perspective. This isn't a conventional shot you would see in star wars, I actually got the inspiration from the music video 'False Alarm' by The Weeknd. This is a music video of a bank robbery from the first persons perspective. This gives a whole different dimension to the video and I wanted to apply the same effect to my animation.

Also I setup the Imperial Shuttles towards the right of the x-wing. First you can see a laser blast in front of the x-wing, which brings the attention to the shuttle. When the camera turns around it looks like a natural head movement. Before you the camera sees the shuttle on the side, it can see the shuttle in front. As the camera turns to the right and turns back centre the shuttle in the front is off screen until the camera turns to the left and sees the imperial shuttle closing in fast.
