First After Effects Animation

After Effects was pretty intuitive to use. I found the puppet tool easy to pick up but I still had a hard time controlling the way things were effected within the image. Im still not sure about the starch tool because of the joints in the animation, I attempted to freeze them but it was strange. I bet the more I use AE then I would understand it better. Another thing that I struggled with was making the graffiti appear on the bill board. I be there is a way to make the text appear smoother by using masking but I couldn't figure out how.
