Motion Design

Learn motion design to better communicate your ideas. This course will focus on After Effects for animation and prototyping.

Motion Design

“The modern artist… is working and expressing an inner world – in other words – expressing the energy, the motion, and other inner forces.”
— Jackson Pollock, American painter, Abstract expressionist


Learn motion design to better communicate your ideas. This course will focus on After Effects for animation and prototyping. Motion draws our attention to what’s happening on the screen and what’s the most important element to pay attention to. Motion can be used to enrich user experience and make our designs more understandable. When you want something to stand out… you use motion. We will teach you how to use motion with confidence and how to use it tastefully.
