Need your opinion!

Heya! I need your opinion on some animation options I'm considering!
ZOOMS AND PANS
So that most recent piece, Which you can see here was fun to do and all, but I couldn't help but be curious. The preview I posed, that was a paw rigging test got much more attention than even the full animation. Made me wonder if I should try something different with how I present the animations in general.
So, thinking about how some other animations have been presented, I created a second version of the animation, with zooms and camera pans. (It's a little too long to post on FA.)
So I'm wondering if this is something that I should offer on all future animations. I would say this would bump the price up by $15, but it would be entirely optional.
SOUND
At the end of last year, I was commissioned to animate This piece, and as an added bonus, the commissioner provided some sound effects that I could use to add to the animation itself. I quite liked the final effect of having sound added. I'm considering adding sounds as an option. However, looking for the exact sound online, or buying sound effects, fiddling with sound licenses, is frustrating and not worth the cost. I can get a decent sound recorder, create my own sounds, and use them in animations, though - I have a decent understanding of that process.
I would consider this another $10-$20 add-on, depending on the complexity of the sounds themselves.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
So, I'd like to know what you think. Should I start offering these as options? Do you think the pricing is fair? Any additional options you'd like to see offered for animations? I'm all ears! ...or at least mostly ears. Have you seen how big they are?

I'd say go for it! Would offer a great deal of variety and think while some may not go for it others sure would! Plus the prices seem perfectly reasonable.
