About this service

Summary

I create high-quality micro-interactions and motion designs that enhance user engagement and make digital products feel more intuitive. By leveraging GSAP, Lottie, and Framer Motion, I bring static interfaces to life, improving usability and guiding users seamlessly through their journey. My approach focuses on delivering fluid, visually appealing animations that not only look great but also enhance functionality, usability, and brand perception.

Process

Discovery & Consultation We start with a call or discussion to understand your goals, target audience, and brand identity. This helps define the animation style, interactions, and overall direction.

2. Concept & Wireframing I create low-fidelity sketches or wireframes to map out key interactions and motion elements, ensuring they align with your product’s functionality and user journey.

3. Animation Prototyping Using tools like Framer Motion, GSAP, or Lottie, I develop initial motion prototypes to showcase the look and feel of the animations before full implementation.

4. Refinement & Feedback I collaborate with you to fine-tune the animations, making necessary adjustments based on user experience, branding, and overall usability.

5. Final Implementation Once approved, the animations are optimized and delivered in the required format—whether as code-ready JSON files, MP4 videos, or integrated directly into your project.

6. Testing & Optimization I ensure that all animations run smoothly across different devices and browsers, refining performance for the best user experience.

7. Handoff & Support The final animations are handed off to your development team or integrated directly, along with clear implementation guidelines. Post-launch support is available if needed.

FAQs
