That is a very creative intro, that is very well done. The only suggestion I have is some foley, such as pencil scratching across paper and similar sounds. It does go by kinda fast though, so maybe have it already half (if not more) of the way finished, but you can only see that one stroke in the opening angle, revealing more as it zooms out. Because there is a point where it just gains speed.
I know, and it took me a LONG time. I don't see anything wrong with following a tutorial, I mean there is tutorials for a reason. I have no option if I wanted to do a blue print, I had to do this because there is no other physical way, and the tutorial of what he did nailed exactly what I wanted to do on the head.
I hear WoW music; you planning to make videos related to that game? Great intro, its simple and eye-catching.
Pretty cool intro. It's very creative and original. The music isn't my style though. It's your intro, so you choose. I am just stating my opinion.
