Here is a screenshot of my old Current project I did in school for Current.tv. This was a revamp of another project, but for my new reel, I'll be hooking this one up with actual 3D clips I make from Cinema 4D.
Right now it is almost all 2D layers in After Effects, but I feel like it could use a little more depth. There's something "timeless" with simple animations though, and I'm going to make sure I don't turn a balanced project into an "epic" project.
I think in order to claim motion graphics as a successful hobby, one has to start small and let the project grow on it's own, rather than plan big and let it fizzle out before it gets a chance.
