Motion design is a complex field that blends graphic design with animation and cinematography. The discipline is fast-growing, and it changes how stories can be told and how messages can be spread to charm audiences. If designed well, people don’t even realize you’re attempting to persuade them; it happens naturally.
Join Motion Graphics Designer Aimé DeLattre, as you collaborate on a group project and learn the basics of animation and the fundamentals of motion graphics. She will share when and where motion design can be integrated into the design to convey the most powerful messages.
