I‘m looking for a motion designer (preferably from Germany, but open to other countries) for an eventtrailer between 20-30 seconds.

Love this style and other animations from New Yorker Festival.

700,00€ netto are only available because of a tight budget (so that I also don‘t earn a lot of it)

I would provide the concept and the Sounddesign.

Hey y’all, been searching for a junior level position at an agency for about two years now. Out of all the apps I’ve gotten one interview that I didn’t land.

Wondering if anyone has any advice for a direction to start taking my work that may make me a bit more hirable.

Thanks for any insight!

I've got about 12 years of motion graphics experience under my belt, mixing 2D and 3D, and would like to develop some skills around the inspirational, creative process before getting to animation. So naturally, Visual Design Lab seemed like a good fit.

But the descriptions for the class are all very vague and nebulous and so I don't have a clear picture of what I'd actually do in the class, and so I don't want to feel like my time and money is wasted. Can anyone talk about their experience and what I could expect from start to finish if I were to take this course?

Greetings!

SHORT VERSION: What's the best way to implement motion graphics into videos, for someone who edits his videos in davinci resolve?

LONG VERSION: I use Davinci Resolve and all ghe youtube videos I come across it around motion graphics are okay ish nothing great.

I want to up my game with some animations / motion graphics in my explainer style videos and I was wondering where do I start?

I am aware of going the blender route to produce motion graphics but that is so time consuming that I cannot afford atm.

Are there any animation packs that we could in our videos to produce while taking less time?

Most preferred would be a marketplace if possible or something that can help me achieve faster because my videos are on yhe longer side of the spectrum (10mins - 60mins).

And please don't just drop and say hire someone o. Fiverr..

Thanks! KV

So I have a weird request from a client of mine. They want a 2D explainer done and don't have the biggest budget, which I know is counteractive to an explainer, which me and they all know. Which is why, they asked if I can do character tool templates such as this https://videohive.net/item/explainer-world/21021730, https://videohive.net/item/explainer-video-toolkit-4/22594089 to cut down the cost and just use envato templates and ready-made designs as much as possible.

I was wondering how many days you would calculate for the lowest amount of days possible to create a 1,5 minute explainer, which would only consist of templates and transitions between these scenes? I was thinking of 3-5 days but not sure at all.

And yes, I would also like to do this in awesome quality all by myself with high quality assets and as much time as possible, but I guess you all know the current situation of motion design. I need this job and the money, so please spare me with not doing it all or telling the client it's not possible to do. I also hate myself for having to ask this question...

Hi everyone, recently updated my reel focused on cinematic main title design. Hope you enjoy, cheers! https://vimeo.com/695557443

Hi, is it possible to hire a mouse clicker? I know all the programs, but I'm now a Buddhist and I've decided to not use computer peripherals. Any advice on how to avoid computers in this time and age? Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I’ve been in animation for over a decade, handling projects in both 2D and 3D. Lately, though, I’ve noticed a steep decline in new clients and opportunities. Starting around 2023 and continuing through 2024, the flow of work has slowed to a trickle.

I’ve looked at freelance sites, and there just aren’t as many listings for animation as there used to be. What’s strange is that I’ve done some market research—talking to competitors, checking out their rates—and their pricing is way higher than mine. I also had neutral reviewers compare my work to theirs, and the consensus was that our quality is similar.

I’m wondering if the issue is my sales funnel or marketing strategy, or if there’s been some kind of shift in the animation industry overall. Have you noticed anything similar?

If you’re comfortable sharing, I’d love to hear your experiences—how you’ve adapted, what trends you’ve noticed, or anything else you think could help. Thanks in advance for any input!

I think it would be fun to design art for places like Mercer lab or Meow wolf Denver, those interactive light rooms ?

I have basically no experience (esp professionally) in graphic design let alone animation- where do I start??

Preferably courses and self paced/online learning vs. any college program but I’m open to all the insight and recommendations

Also if anyone has insight into working for these types of spaces and how they pay $$$? I would much appreciate it 🙏🏻 🌈 ✨

What's the use case of these tools for motion designers?
