Four years ago, whenever I needed interface animation for my portfolio, I usually built it directly in a Figma prototype, screen-recorded it, and called it done 😄

I finally had some time to properly try Figma Motion, and here’s the result. It was surprisingly easy to get into. It’s also pretty fun that you can just prompt the motion instead of fighting with keyframes for hours. I’m still exploring it, so roast the animation gently, feedback is very welcome.

Curious what everyone else is using for interface and product animations?

And do you mostly create them for portfolios/content, or do you actually use motion work with clients and real product teams as well?

Nice first experiment!
