Making a Title on After Effects

I have watched a number of different title tutorials on youtube in order to be able to create a moving title screen before the actual thriller starts. My group and I wanted to do this because we thought that it would make our thriller appear more professional, and it shows some skill and resourcefulness.
This is the first video that we watched in order to help us create a title with a spotlight and a faded galaxy background.


We did have some initial problems and we had to carry out multiple attempts in order to recreate something similar as neither of us had ever used this program before. However I do still think that our turned out well and will still give our thriller a professional feel, adding drama at the start. We found that this video wasn't detailed enough and so searched for specific videos on YouTube to help us with the spotlight tool. For example we found this video very helpful:


We really found this video helpful for focusing on the spotlight tool in general as we had trouble following the first video. Also9, we wanted to add something extra to our title using a zoom, however we weren't particularly sure of how to do this so we found another helpful video which I think really gave our title a dramatic edge which is common at the start of high drama films especially thrillers.
