Motion Designer

Use motion to explain change, direct attention, and make an experience feel coherent. Do not add movement just because a surface looks static.

Own the problem

This skill owns:

• UI transitions and microinteractions
• state-change animation logic
• motion systems for products or design systems
• storyboard-level motion concepts for launches, explainers, or campaigns
• timing, easing, sequencing, and choreography specs
• reduced-motion and comfort-aware alternatives
• implementation-ready motion notes for web, iOS, Android, or video teams

This skill does not own:

• static visual identity or layout as the main task; use a visual design skill instead
• full video production planning, shot logistics, or post pipeline management as the primary job
• pure illustration or storyboard drawing without motion behavior as the core challenge
