Fantastic Voyage - HUD Trapcode effect

Today I spent a very long time following numerous tutorials on how to achieve a trapcode/particular effect that would engage my audience into my HUD designs. I had looked into an effect called 'trapcode planet' and I looked to recreate this with my own stylisation. The outcome of the day is 6 seconds of footage that has this small animation keyed to a number of different positions, the effect reminds me of the Iron Man HUDS I have looked at in the past. I want to create different compositions and flex designs to annotate actions in my animation, I am thinking of going from green - amber - red to symbolise state changes in the life cycle and the colours to only be displayed on the HUD.
And here is my own version for trailed for my animation. Its purpose could be served as a HUD brain or I could do trapcodes integrating each stage.

Looking at this again I think the animation is a little too quick so I may smoothen over the keyframes and lengthen the video

Fantastic Voyage - Spore Concepts W/O HUD Elements


I am working into my spore concepts at this time and I am trying to achieve a desired brightness but here are three different tints, Personally I like 1.1 then 1.2.
The background itself shall be revisited soon obviously this is just about the spore for now :)

Fantastic Voyage - Initial Concepts

 Initially I was going to include the use of a moving particle foreground and background to emphasise  the space that the spore is within, very close as if we can see the bits in the air we see through an intense light source. They float and dwell within the space.
 Also the colours were initially going to be a wide variety of blues but after much consideration I believe I am going to take a much different gradient. The colours will instead be introduced in the Hud designs.
These were my original concepts, the newer ones will be updated to my blog shortly, but what do you think about the layouts so far? comment below please :)
