Motion design values

These are the values that guide our approach to motion design across all of our projects, helping us to create engaging, purposeful, clear, and delightful animations that effectively communicate our ideas and messages to our audience.

Engaging

Animations should be engaging, capturing the viewer's attention without being distracting. The animation should add value to the logo without overwhelming the message.

Simple

Animations can be used to present complex ideas and concepts in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. The animation should simplify the message and make it accessible to a broader audience.

Playful

Logo animations should be playful, infused with a sense of fun and delight. The animation should reflect the brand's personality and values, creating an emotional connection with the audience.

Logo animation

Logo animation is the process of bringing a static logo to life through motion and sound. It is an effective way to enhance brand recognition and create a memorable user experience.

Hero animation

Hero animations convey intricate and elaborate stories with a focus on a significant, colossal object accompanied by a team collaborating to construct, repair, or assemble. They aim to create a feeling of camaraderie, exploration, success, and positivity for the viewers.

Spot hero animation

Spot hero animations are a condensed and simplified version of hero animations, visually and metaphorically. They are effective in conveying the key message in a literal representation of a single concept while incorporating a small team working on or around a larger-than-life subject.
