Lottie Animator - SVG to Motion Graphics
Professional skill to create advanced Lottie animations from SVGs, eliminating the After Effects workflow entirely by using intelligent motion design.
Quick Reference: 8-Step Animation Checklist
Before creating or writing any animation keyframes, you MUST align on the following checklist:
- Emotional target? — What should the viewer feel? (joy, calm, trust, excitement, urgency)
- Motion Personality? — Select exactly one archetype: Playful, Premium, Corporate, or Energetic.
- Primary property? — Focus on the hero transition first: position (
p), scale (s), rotation (r), or opacity (o). - Distance and Timing? — Calculate target frames based on the 1/3 spatial scaling rule.
- Easing family? — Map curve constants: entrance = ease-out, exit = ease-in, loop = ease-in-out.
- Hero elements? — Plan staging offsets (hero enters 100-200ms after background).
- Secondary & ambient layers? — Plan secondary accents (shadow shifts, spark wiggles).
- Volume Preservation? — Keep X/Y scale multiplication constant (
~10,000) for wiggles and squashes (skip for premium).
