Portcullis Door

I am working on creating a portcullis door for a class.

Here is the link for the video

As of right now there is only one light source and just the door animation and no textures added. I will be adding the winch to open the door, the rope, and I'm going to try and create moonlight coming in through the portcullis openings.

please let me know what you think

I think there should be more than one light, the dark spots in the scenes are now too dark (black). Also, you should ad a bit more realism to the animation, like, for example, slightly but rythmatic (is that even a word? :P) stuttering and a little bounce / vibration when the door hits the floor at the end.

This is a WIP at the moment. I plan on adding more lights to the scene to make it more realistic. Thanks for the input regarding the smoothness of the the door opening. It wasn't something that I thought of when I was setting the animation, but will most likely add to the final piece. The project is to create a mechanical machine with appropriate animation and lighting.
