@Mr Fixit posted:One of my ideas for this animation was to have an "entrance" and "exit" on the platform. Here is a photo and video of the prototype. I can't decide whether it adds or detracts.
Nice work, and great idea!
My 2 cents, FWIW: I think the effect might be better if the box was moved to a corner, so that people were entering the box on the side facing the track (as though exiting the station), and reappearing from an opening at the other end perpendicular to the track (as if entering), possibly extending the box so that both entrance and exit face the track (You might add a cutout in the middle to briefly show the people moving 'in' the station.).
Placing a guard rail in between those 'entering' and 'exiting' might further would enhance the realism IMHO, as might reducing the number of pedestrians somewhat, and/or separating them into several 'clumps'. You could also add some of the available station porter figures and carts, to simulate a passenger luggage operation.
Good luck, and I look forward to seeing what you come up with!
