Motion Designer

Responsibilities

• Motion Design System & Brand Standards
• Maintain and evolve the motion design language for each brand (Alex, Leila, Sharran, ACQ) - including timing, easing, color, and typographic animation standards
• Build and manage template libraries for animated lower thirds, title cards, social graphics, bumpers, and episodic title treatments in After Effects
• Ensure motion consistency across all output - every animated asset should be immediately identifiable as part of its brand
• Document motion standards in brand guides and animation style references
• Collaborate with the broader media team to ensure motion assets are cohesive with captured footage and overall visual identity guidelines
• Video Motion Graphics & Post-Production Support
• Create motion graphics, animated text treatments, kinetic typography, and branded transitions for long-form YouTube content and social clips
• Design and animate episodic opens, closes, chapter cards, and segment transitions that elevate production value across all series
• Build motion assets that integrate cleanly into editor timelines in Premiere Pro with minimal revision cycles
• Contribute to a shared motion asset library that accelerates post-production output across the team
• Social Motion Assets
• Design and animate platform-native motion assets (animated covers, story templates, promo graphics, looping visuals) for Instagram, LinkedIn, X, and YouTube
• Produce short-form motion pieces optimized for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok formats
• Maintain awareness of platform-specific motion specs, aspect ratios, and safe zones to ensure pixel-perfect delivery
• Workflow Systems & Asset Management
• Maintain an organized, tagged, and searchable motion asset library
• Apply file naming conventions and version control across all motion output
• Deliver assets in correct formats, frame rates, resolutions, and codec specs for each platform and use case - zero ambiguity for the teams receiving them
• Leverage AI tools and motion automation (expressions, scripts, plugins) to increase output speed without sacrificing quality
• Quality Control & Iteration
• Proactively catch and correct motion inconsistencies, quality drifts, or brand misalignments before they reach post-production
• Use performance data to drive motion design decisions, not just aesthetic preference
• Continuously raise the animation bar - good enough is not the standard

Requirements

• 4+ years of motion design experience in a media, agency, or content production environment
• A portfolio demonstrating strong motion craft, typographic animation, and high-volume output
• Expert-level proficiency in Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro; strong working knowledge of Photoshop and Illustrator
