Well you have a good point, but the weight of opinion is against you. i.e. if
everyone here who voted for #3 decides to look at the animation then I'll be
happy :)

I completely agree with your reasoning. The way I looked at it was like this, I
had the conventional shot #3, the unexpected and somewhat spontaneous shot #1,
and the just plain overpowering #2.

Though the main reason I've gone for #3 is because it best represents the
quality of the animation. The other two suggest that maybe the animation is
slightly more abstract or lacking in detail. It is a cliche, but it's a cliche
for a reason: it shows the kind of things you want on a poster, so everyone uses
that style. Still, I wouldn't have been able to choose between them without
putting it to a vote.

But anyway, it's all academic now. I'm afraid you were too late, I've already
submitted it.
