After 4 years of celebrating styleframes, one truth is evident 👉the real magic in creative work is upstream in ideation. It's the purpose before the polish. The concepts before the keyframes. And it's the secret to iconic motion design. We call it Motion Ideation✨

The phrase “stop and smell the roses" exists for a reason 🌼 In fact, it's how Janelle DeWitt came up with her 3D daisy project! It just goes to show that the best ideas show up when we stop forcing them. Episode 32 with Janelle is out now: youtu.be/rZppe1z0IHA #mograph

Every idea starts on paper before it becomes pixels ✏️ Janelle DeWitt appropriately calls it "Getting the Gunk Out," and the feeling in those sketches drives the whole rest of the piece. Full episode here 👉 youtu.be/rZppe1z0IHA #mograph #animationprocess

Every great #story starts with one idea and changes everything when the right hero steps up. Because ideas spark concepts. Concepts build stories. Stories create heroes. And heroes make history. Who’s the hero of your next story?🔥 Photo by Jarden Bellamkonda on Unsplash

The future isn’t just about what technology can do. It’s about how we choose to use it, in a human way 🙂 #motiondesign #AIart #storytelling

As @billywoodward says, your unique life experiences are your secret creative weapon. Everything you create (even with AI) is unmistakably yours. Keep creating authentic, human stories that only you can tell! #motiondesign #GenerativeAI #AIvideo #AIart
