Recently explored interactions and animations using @Jitter and After Effects on a product project.

More than just motion, it pushed me to think about how feedback, transitions and micro interactions shape the overall user experience. Every small movement carries meaning, from guiding attention to reinforcing actions.

Still exploring, but it is clear that good animation is not decoration, it is part of the product thinking.

I Just wrapped up a motion design project for COINFx. I focused on creating smooth, engaging visuals that simplify the trading experience and keep users hooked.

Motion is more than aesthetics it’s about clarity, flow, and user connection.

Open to more projects.

really cool! Only at times certain elements should not remain static I find, you can energize even more!

That's really cool you've shown the BTS of it. I mean, I'd have just thought you created them through only effects otherwise, which is also cool, but seeing the work behind it actually hits different.
