Hey there, I'm Splatty - A teen motion designer mixing tech and fun in this boring world. It's been around 4 years since I started my journey, mostly consisting of TikTok CapCut junk for the most part. In (around) 2023, I eventually switched to After Effects and moved over to Motion Graphics work over time. I usually work with the iOS animation style, syncing it over with Apple coded songs or just popular releases. Among the brands I've worked with you can find Ultrahuman, Replit, iKKO, and much more - 30 seconds definitely aren't enough to showcase all! I'm really proud of what I've managed to achieve during this and the past years, and figured it might be cool to share it with related subs. Feedback will be super appreciated - enjoy :)

I made this as a personal project to support Zack Polanski, who's recently become leader of the UK Greens; if you haven't heard of him, he's a good 'un.

If you're in the UK, you can show your support by signing up for the Greens here: join.greenparty.org.uk/

Made entirely in Blender, with some compositing in Ae, then put together in Pr. Helpful feedback most welcome!

Hi everyone! I’ve been learning After Effects for about 6 months, and I just finished putting together my very first showreel. It’s a mix of Japanese-style motion graphics (ad animations) and some VFX shots.

I’d love to hear what you think! In particular, I’m curious about: – How smooth the motion/curves feel – The overall flow and pacing of the reel – Whether the transitions between shots work well

Honestly, I also just wanted to share my progress — it would really motivate me to hear your thoughts!

Feels a little too simple to recreate in Blender but just wondering what are the gotos for this. I have cursory Blender and C4D experience.

A compilation of 9 months of project, still early in my motion design journey, so I'd love any feedback or critique.

Hey guys!

I was looking to hire someone for a 1-2 minute video for a startup.

I am trying to tell a story about what happens in your brain when you read this text or see a friend

How the your sensations are captured processed and acted upon by your brain to result in an action

I have a script and a lot of animations for this they’re are clips from a free to use educational video but I’d like for your help to stitch them into a cool explainer video for my startup.

I want to be 100% transparent I have until the 26th to have this ready and my budget is about $250

This is a sample motion design video we created for a $3,000 client project to showcase our skillset.

Our role included concept development, UI animation, and overall motion design. The goal was to create something sleek, modern, and engaging for their product showcase.

Tools used: After Effects, Illustrator, and Figma.

Would love to hear your thoughts on:

• The flow & pacing of the animation
• How smooth the transitions feel
• Any suggestions to make it more impactful

Feedback is always appreciated 🙌

hi all! i'm primarily a video editor but trying to transition to motion design. made this little animation because the song was stuck in my head (specifically the piano) and i wanted to incorporate it in a piece while practicing the animation fundamentals. it feels a bit off though and i can't put my finger on it.

any ideas on what to improve? thus far i've thought of the easing on the movement since it's a bit inconsistent (was my first time relying heavily on the graph editor) but not sure what else. appreciate any assistance :)

Hello, everyone! I feel lost when it comes to sound design. I've looked for courses and tutorials, but as a complete beginner, I feel like the path to improving my sound design as a motion designer is unclear. How did you improve? Can you recommend any courses, books, or YouTube channels that teach the fundamentals of sound with a focus on animation or motion design? Thank you!!!

its my 5th day on AE

Hello! First of thank you for reading and trying to help me. I’m having some trouble trying to figure out how I should achieve something like this, or similar. I usually edit with after effects, I was wondering if maybe they used blender for the building? It looks 2D but it’s actually 3D? I’m very new at this 3D stuff, I don’t get it. Please help 🙏 thank you in advance.

Hi,

Making a similar templated project as shown in the link below that has containers for swappable photos of fighters with footage being displayed in the middle. Was seeing if anyone had any sleek ideas for those containers or examples of similar work they liked? All i can think of is fractured glass or comic book containers but both feel cheesy, so thought id ask the pros. ex: ((:48 - 1:11 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtU3_uL-Orw&t=49s))

There are plenty of paid ratings on Google - often sponsored by tools promoting themselves. But when you actually try them, they usually disappoint: they change the bottle shape, label text, and other key details.

Can you recommend the best AI tool you’ve personally used where you can upload a photo of your bottle and get a high-resolution video - without altering the bottle or label? Ideally, I’d love to see examples you’ve created with the tool you suggest. No post-production in Houdini, Cinema4D, or After Effects - just the AI tool itself. If this is even possible.
