What can you create with Figma Motion?
Figma recently introduced Figma Motion, a new way to add animations directly inside your design file.
Of course, I had to try it myself.
I created this scene to test how it handles simple looping animations.
It’s still in beta, so there are a few limitations, but it’s already quite intuitive and beginner-friendly.
Sharing my process walkthrough in the comments.
Have you tried it yet?
wow,
i have made use of it but not for illustration , you did well btw
yes, my current banner video, i made it using the tool
The UFO-abducting-a-cow bit is such a fun way to stress-test a looping animation instead of just doing a boring bounce. Now that you've poked at Figma Motion in beta, does it feel like it'll replace your Lottie/After Effects handoff, or more of a quick-prototype layer for now?
Haha exactly, I tried to make it more exciting to animate!
Hmm, I don’t think it’ll replace After Effects since I’m much more used to animating there, and it still has more advanced features. But I can definitely see Figma Motion being useful for beginners who need to create quick animations!
Great work
Nice one 👍
Nice

This deserves more than just liking, this deserves to be featured! 🏆 Simple looping animations completely change how a user experiences a web page. I can’t wait to see how smoothly this Figma Motion beta translates over to live Framer production.

This is a great example of using Motion without overcomplicating it. Excited to see how it evolves once it's out of beta. 👏
wooooh, thats cute. am also download the software to try the cool things and learn
Really loving Figma's new motion tools! It's super helpful to have timeline animations right there all-in-one.

I’m currently watching tutorials and Figma motion… it’s been a ride but I’ll arrive at my destination soon.
I have this urge of creating something with it, but time have not been on my side. So, can you tell me how amazing is it?
Nice work
love it .

A lot of you asked how I made this 👀
After sharing this animation, I got quite a few DMs asking how I created it.
Here are some premade templates to get you started, and you can also play around with the keyframes to create your own variations and animations.

Have fun experimenting with it. Would love to see what you create with it 🚀
So pretty
nice work
Tool Finder Branding 🔎
Tool Finder helps users make informed buying decisions through honest software reviews, comparisons and educational content. I reimagined the brand across YouTube and the web, developing a cohesive identity that strengthens recognition, reflects its authority and creates a consistent presence across every digital touchpoint.
When Francesco first reached out, Tool Finder had never established a true brand identity. The goal was to create a scalable brand system that could evolve alongside the business as it continued to grow its YouTube channel, website and future ventures.
The identity needed to feel like a modern media brand rather than another software company. It had to balance playfulness and approachability with professionalism, while remaining distinctive in an increasingly competitive market.
The result is a flexible identity system centred around the new 'Finder' mascot. Designed to adapt across content, digital products and marketing, the brand gives Tool Finder the foundations to grow with confidence and establish itself as the go-to destination for discovering, comparing and exploring better software.
Great Work
