Motion design creates movement, excitement and adds life to otherwise static experiences. When it comes to digital environments, it not only creates delight but also serves strategic purposes such as brand expression, accessibility, information and guidance.

In this course, you will learn how to integrate motion to your designs with purpose in mind. We will cover topics ranging from micro-interactions to full screen transitions as well as how to prepare, animate and export your animations in After Effects and Lottie.

At this end of this class, you will be able to design with motion in mind and to animate your web models.
