Leveling up your team during a pandemic

With the Coronavirus outbreak, it seems like a lot of work has slowed or even stopped.

Your team doesn't have to.

To accommodate demand, I've moved my 'LottieFiles After Effects Design Team Workshop' online with Zoom. I will help your team learn how to produce red hot 'implementation ready' Lottie animations from their existing design files in a matter of hours. 

Imagine...

  • Seeing your team empowered to experiment with Lottie animation
  • Seeing your team excitedly sharing new Lottie icon animations and transition ideas during their presentations
  • Seeing your designers creating world class Lottie  animations that delight your users and impress stakeholders
  • Going from conversations about how 'we wish we had Lottie animation' to actually seeing it in your product

 

Delivering real world results

For the last several years I've been  on-boarding product teams with animation using Adobe After Effects.

I’ve trained the teams at Airbnb, Dropbox, Slack, Kayak, Oracle, Salesforce, Capital One, and more. 

My training is easy and even designers with no animation experience can pick it up. Your designers will be excited to continue to experiment and propose new animation ideas for your product. 

I've been teaching these workshops for the last 7 years and thousands of designers have gone through my training.

I know how to help your design team use animation to take more ownership in their projects and produce tangible, high quality results. 

Schedule a call with me, and I’ll work with you to meet your team goals. 

Wash your hands and stay safe. 

Sincerely,
Issara Willenskomer
Founder and instructor at UX in Motion

 

Instructor feedback

Participants will receive hands-on instructor review and feedback on work performed during the workshop, ensuring all designers are able to deliver professional animation in their projects.

“Very helpful in allowing me to ‘see’ motion. Before this workshop I glazed over the motion or saw it more as a delight element. Now I have the language and awareness to analyze motion effectiveness and the understanding to start designing supportive motion for UX.”

“Transitioning the language from ‘swoosh’ to ‘easing/offset and delay’ offers a different level of confidence when presenting and justifying solutions. Linguistics frameworks! Learning about easing curves was really helpful too!”

"This workshop has been helpful in breaking down motion into talking points to be able to discuss why or why not something’s working. Running through examples also helps to see how one would critique motion, as well as dissect why it’s done that way and the meaning it was meant to convey. Overall, I think this course has helped to look at motion with a critical and dissecting eye to improve or recreate."

"Loved this workshop! Lots of examples, which really helps me as a visual learner. I think it was great to hear how motion is applied in the UX context. I previously utilized Disney’s 12 Principles in motion/animation, but these didn’t always apply to interface objects. These Principles of UX in Motion really help me visualize motion directly connected to my designs."
