What is motion design?
Motion design is a type of animation that involves the use of graphic design elements to create dynamic and engaging visual content. It is often used to imbue static objects with motion and can be found in a variety of contexts, such as websites, mobile apps, and video.
By using animation and storytelling techniques, as well as visual elements, motion design creates immersive and interactive experiences that capture the viewer's attention and convey meaning and mood in a more engaging way than static imagery. It is an effective way to keep the viewer engaged with the content.
