Hi, my name is Vit and I'm a seasoned motion designer based in Rotterdam ◯ Over 15 years I’ve been lucky to work with lovely folks mostly at studios Mainframe and Oficina ◯ With a strong focus on kinetic typography, 2D animation and UX motion I love to play with keyframes and generative tools to explore and create motion systems, brand narratives and user experiences ◯ I’m also a proud host and curator of the motion design conference Mouvo, which has spanned over a decade of marvelous discussions, talks, ideas and friendships within the community.
Thinking in Motion
To me motion is more than a discipline. It’s a way of working, paradigm of design thinking. I like to say the most important tool of a motion designer is not a particular software but the timeline itself. Because every title sequence, narrative video, UI interaction or a brand is a story that needs a director.
Motion systems
Broadcast has taught me early on that the branding can’t stop with a one frame of logo or key visual. The benefits of motion-led identities have proliferated from their stages on TV screens to any digital media. Generative approach and flexible identities are an answer to fluid screens, layouts and demands of a modern brand output for digital signage and new media formats. Thus the motion-led thinking plays a vital role and I have collaborated on bespoken number of motion systems over the years. Whether exploring and testing concepts, creating final assets or building and collaborating on custom templates and tools for systematic and automated approach.
UX Motion
I’ve always enjoyed the process of building products that are meaningful and bring sense to users. I believe that motion design can play a crucial role in the experience whether it is applied to simplify or better navigate or simply bring some joy. I have attended Motion and Usability workshop from UXMotion.com led by Issara Willenskomer and have applied the knowledge when working with product teams at Emplifi or Vistag. I’ve used mostly Lottie and Figma for prototyping and motion hand-off but recently I’ve taken up Rive, which has an enormous potential for interactive and non-linear motion
Kinetic typography
Before discovering the power of motion and love for keyframes, I had focused on editorial design and working with magazine layout. I’ve been always fascinated by great typography and working with type came to me naturally when I started exploring animation. Thus kinetic typography is an area that I’ve practiced a lot. I’ve been also lucky enough to collaborate a lot with many friends from type design community that I’ve been following throughout various conferences.
Teaching, mentoring, consulting
For five years, I used to teach and lead the study programme of motion design. I gave workshops ad various prague art and film academies. Mentoring junior colleagues or giving workshop sessions to the creative team to share a few motion skills. Also consulting and mentoring motion to UX designers in several tech companies and startups. I love to discuss work, talk about feedback and explore new ways to grow.
Humble and proud
