Origami Money: the idea and concept are really cute and i love how you end it with the shirts being shipped off in a little postal box with stamps and address. the visual qualities are good, but maybe you might think about changing the angle of the camera every now and again to make it a little more interesting. you r use of time is also good, but it might be a little smother if the duration was a little smaller,but not to much because the length of time in the video is good.
Vase of Flowers: I love the change in medium with the flowers going from 3D to 2D in the drawing of the vase. the idea and concept are excellent i love the fact that you show the flowers growing and then move to the vase. what you might want to do is add some more scenes at the beginning when the flowers are growing maybe to show a passage of time to make the movie a bit longer. Also at the end maybe do a scene of the flowers wilting or depositing a seed and maybe show it being planted to make it more complete, like showing the cycle of its growth.
Revised film: - This version has a lot more going on than the previous one you did and the added details gives it more of a story. I think there is a lot of movement in it as well with the money changing forms as well as moving around, but i do agree with Morgan that there could be even more movement if you changed the angles of the camera a little more. The box at the end is a good way to introduce something new that also fits in with the origami.
Vase of Flowers: - I liked that it starts off with a changing picture, but then becomes more interactive with things like showing your hands holding scissors that cut the flowers. The concept is a pretty simple one with a flower and sun, but you make it more interesting by involving yourself within in and making a point of showing the hands that are causing the changes within the picture.
The vase of flowers animation has wonderful play between 2D and 3D, representation and reality. It is interesting that you combine drawing with cut paper... which are both usually considered 2D formats, but the paper takes on a 3D quality in your piece, since it has shadow and more substance than the drawing it is compared to. The folded paper flowers have yet another level of 3 dimensionality... the cotton is another... and the hand is yet another level. Very interesting, I would love to see you continue to play with this... it is a great direction to take your origami theme. A small point of criticism... the sun with sunglasses is a bit too cliche for me, in an otherwise rather complex play with surface, space, and limited color palette. Technically, you did a great job of keeping the whites white, but you might consider (for future animations) to put the light on the opposite side (if you will be using your left hand, light on the right) to minimize distracting shadows.
