Help me to identify why my recent logo sting project hard rejected

Today I received an email after reviewing my last item (After Effects Project_Logo Sting), and it was hard rejected, though I did my best to make it good as possible, and I really want your help to identify the possible reasons for this, so I can manage them in the future, here is the video:

I maybe able to help?

The loading number below the bar makes no sense at all.
There is no camera movements.
The use of another font might be helpful in selling a more defined style.
I believe the vignetting might be a bit heavy.
When the bar loads up completely there is a moment where it stays a 100%
There is no “WOW” effect like I was waiting for something really cool to happen when it got to 100%, but it’s just a dissolve (which is well done BTW). But I was expecting a change in scenery or a big reveal!
The logo just kinda stands there.

This is just my two cents, maybe I’m all wrong just trying to help out! My files got rejected as well so we’re in this together! Have a nice day.

Hi.
In my humble opinion, if you see this from a reviewer perspective, your project has almost no motion, just a loading bar and a transition to reveal the logo. The vignette maybe is not needed. And definitely the logo needs something that gives more visual power when it appears. Also, background could have more details with depth of field and focus variations to give some 3D visual look behind the logo
Good luck! :+1:

I am curious about something, when an item is hard rejected as in this item case, they say I am not able to resubmit it again, does this mean even if I made a great changes to it? like the ones you mentioned, if I could made it much better does this allow me to submit it again as a new project ? thank you in advance @GoForMotion … @Antole

If you make significant changes that make a big difference about improvement, then you can resubmit your project, only this way.
