Read what each lesson covers
- Information that moves. Motion graphics deliver information, and the test is whether the motion helped. Design the still frames first, then animate between them.
- Timing, which is most of the craft. Most beginner animation is too slow: entrances under a second, easing in and out, slight overshoot, staggered elements, enough time to read twice, and quicker exits.
- The pieces you will be asked for. Animated statistics, step sequences, charts that build, kinetic text, icon animation, consistent transitions and captions, each built once as a reusable template.
- Working from a brief. A one-sentence message, an agreed length, script and storyboard approved first, brand assets up front, an early rough cut for timing, two revision rounds, and wide and vertical versions.
- Building a practice. Most local editors offer cutting rather than design, so do both. A short showreel that opens with the best piece, a specialism, fixed-scope prices and a library of your own templates.
Who this course is for
- Video editors who want to add design to their cutting.
- Designers asked for animated posts, statistics and explainers for social media.
- Businesses that present results and processes in video.
