Sig 1: 5/10 = 500K
I like your start, and going for a GIF on your first try is very ambitious. The animated portion could be applied a bit more tastefully, as opposed to having it square on the side. I like the flat design in the background, but make sure your spacing is perfect with your hexagons if you're hoping to leave it as it is. The background coloring looks good with the devils jersey. the dark gray keeps it much more interesting than a flat black. The player render is unmodified as far as i can tell, but is placed in a good spot. You seem to have the basics of design principles down, so I'm sure you'll progress in no time. The text is a good typeface for this project, but it competes with the subtitles from the animation.

Sig 2: 5/10 = 500K
I like the flat design in the foreground and the complimenting text. the typeface selected for the number takes away from it all. mixing scripts is a very tricky dance, and I don't believe these two match. The changing of the text orientation also draws attention to that. The Finnish flag distracts a bit in the background. the entire piece is made of the green and a few shades of gray, and the blue (in a different texture) takes us out of it. The player is placed well, and interacts well with the flat text design, but doesn't mesh well with the flag based on color. I like to see the risks taken with fading the render into the piece and a shadow player is certainly one way to do that; however, having the player smaller and behind the original player makes the signature look like a Finnish Animorphs novel.

Sig 3: 6/10 = 600K
The background looks cool, and the texture helps to add depth, as do the flares/sparks. Everything is placed very well. the main text works with all of the elements excluding the subtext (your subtext font choice does not match the theme. go for an unitalicized typeface in a smaller size). The player doesn't take away form the piece but it isn't enhanced in a way that makes it the focus. now that you and your class have been drafted, im loking forward to you trying your hand at some more aggressive manipulations.
