60-Second Cinematic Birthday Trailer

I want to surprise a friend with a punchy, 60-second birthday trailer built entirely in Adobe After Effects. Think movie-preview energy—fast pacing, dramatic titles, rising music cues—yet always bright and celebratory rather than dark or mysterious.

Here’s the creative brief:
• Style: full-on cinematic trailer, but for a birthday.
• Tone: exciting from the first frame—big whooshes, impactful hits, upbeat rhythm.
• Elements to weave in:
– Dynamic text overlays that announce milestones and fun facts.
– Sound effects synced to cuts and title reveals.
– Visual effects for depth—light flares, particles, subtle camera shake.
– A short photo/video mosaic where text snakes around images, slips behind footage, then snaps back in front for emphasis.

I’ll supply photos, short video clips, and any wording you need. You assemble, grade, and polish, adding royalty-free music that feels like a blockbuster intro but still festive.

Deliverables
1. Final 1920×1080 MP4 (60 s, H.264).
2. Editable .aep project with all linked assets and fonts.
3. Separate WAV stems for music/SFX so small tweaks are possible later.

Acceptance
The piece should run exactly one minute, keep audio peaks below –1 dB, and play smoothly on standard social-media platforms without letterboxing. If that sounds clear, let’s roll cameras—well, keyframes!
