Do you ever try breaking the site you're interacting with?
I'm always thinking "what will people try to do" and then coming up with a solution for it. If I saw a card like this I'd try to pick it up. Then once I discovered it was draggable, I'd try seeing what happens if I throw it outside the browser.
What do you think?
Where should I look?
What changed?
What happens next?
That’s the checklist I use when thinking through a SaaS explainer.
A transition can connect two steps.
A highlight can direct attention.
A short pause can give someone time to understand the result.
When all three happen at once, the viewer has to work harder.
Before adding another animation, I ask: does this help someone follow the product?
A few frames from my Mesa, Aura and Shippiz projects, brought together in an AI-assisted collage. Different products, the same goal: make the story easy to follow.
What’s harder in your product videos: deciding what to animate, or getting the timing right?
An experiment exploring how to visually communicate design impact through a draggable before/after slider. Built to test the interaction and motion feel of scrubbing between two states of a design, it uses a small format to show transformation at a glance 😊
The compact format is doing a lot of work—the draggable reveal makes the improvement immediately legible, while the consistent card rhythm keeps the comparison easy to scan.
