Experimenting with avatar animation using Figma + Motion ✨
Honestly, I never thought Figma Motion could generate motion this smooth, it’s starting to feel surprisingly close to what I’d normally achieve in After Effects.

Seasonal identity for Beat Film Festival. The challenge: create a concept where cinema helps audiences process a turbulent cultural and historical moment — staying relevant and resonant rather than offering escape from it.
The identity metaphor for BFF is a shared journey —
audience and festival alike searching for solid ground.
"Get on Board" is an invitation to hop into the same boat, riding together the waves of emotion sparked by film and shaped by the turbulence around us. Beat becomes the lighthouse in that storm — a sense of safety, belonging, and a moment worth sharing.
The gradient makes the whole identity special, what do you think?
