“Meaning”: A Learn Squared Project
“Meaning” is the result of going through the entire motion design process to create a simple animation for my Motion Design class at Learn Squared. It’s based on a quote from C.S. Lewis: https://vimeo.com/186462023
Like many motion designers, I began learning this trade on my own, finding tutorials online and clicking around in After Effects for fun. I eventually went to school and did a 1-year course, but after working in the industry for many years, I still always wished there was a more specific and practical program that I could have taken when I started Motion Design.
So when Ash Thorp and Learn Squared asked me to do an online class, as unqualified as I feel for it, I decided to use it as an opportunity to create the kind of course I wished I could have taken when I started.
During the class, I do my best to take students through the history and theory of Motion Design, and I also create a project from start to finish, going through all the steps of the Motion Design process. This project is the result of that process.
