A motion designer creates animated graphics for videos, websites, apps, or advertisements.
They combine design, animation, and timing to make visuals move smoothly.
In practice, motion design sort of sits at the crossroads of graphic design, animation and filmmaking. While animators often focus on character movement and storytelling, motion designers create animated graphics that communicate ideas, explain processes and enhance brand identity.
A motion designer typically possesses a positive, approachable personality that is key in the design role. They are often confident, which is essential for clients to believe in their abilities.
A 3D artist creates three-dimensional models, textures, and environments for films, games, and other media. They build and render realistic or stylized 3D objects and characters.
These artists work across various industries including gaming, film, architecture, and virtual reality, to produce intricate and lifelike renderings. Unlike traditional artists who work in two dimensions, 3D artists use advanced software such as Blender, Maya, or 3ds Max to model, texture, and render their creations.
The typical personality of a 3D artist is characterized by a blend of creativity, technical proficiency, and a strong sense of storytelling.
