TEN TIPS

1. Your motion graphics should compliment your content.
2. Motion graphics should help tell a story or create a related mood.
3. For impact, consider your composition, contrast, pacing and color.
4. Fonts are very important - they should relate to your content.
5. Consistency in alignment, style and attitude is important.
6. Give time for text messages to be read and make them legible.
7. If you are animating interface, watch out for your delay time.
8. Also watch out for repetition making your motion graphics stale.
9. Consider not doing everything at once but rather keep a rhythm.
10. Almost without exception, ease your motion graphics.
