I added in the mirror frame with the newspaper to the foreground and also added the mirror erosion from my earlier tests to see how it would look, and it definitely adds good detail and depth to the mirror. After that I added some glow from the mirror world to the frame and newspaper, some colour corrections to the newspaper so that it looks lighter (before it is dark blue). I also played around with the colours in the mirror world, I duplicated the background and added a gaussian blur (24) and overlaid it.
Once I did that I thought to try out the camera focus shift effect, so I just added a gaussian blue effect to the separate layers for the animation and frame, and animated the effect.
This is what I came up with. Any feedback and critiques would be appreciated thanks!
OHHH I really like the shift of focus on Elizabeth!! It helps the viewer take a moment to look around (at the erosion and newspaper) Also makes Elizabeth look more 'alive' :D Awesome job Tay!
