App Video Inspo 5

https://www.behance.net/gallery/53897971/Okuloo-App-Intro-Video I can’t really tell what’s going on here because I can’t read the text, but this looks like some of the video templates I’ve been looking at. The movement here is much more advanced, with the phone screen spinning and resizing/repositing across the page. I’m really not sure how I would go about using […]

App Video Inspo 4

https://www.behance.net/gallery/46661373/Intro-Video-for-food-delivery-app While not very interesting here, I thought the tile technique could be effective to use for the intro to my app (showing overwhelming news sources, candidates, etc.). It’s interesting how the screen is used in an illustrated mockup, and I like how the icons pop up on the screen along with content on the […]

App Video Inspo 3

https://www.behance.net/gallery/72928387/Zoom-Abroad-App-Intro-Video This app video is simple but still has some movement and animation to give it some visual interest. I appreciate the burst animations at the corners of the app screen when the phone moves, and the movement of the phone seems natural and steady. I like the way the text pops up on the […]

App Video Inspo 2

https://www.behance.net/gallery/67165923/Lufuu-App-Explainer-Video In contrast to the last very simple video, this video shows what I would do if I had endless time to commit to this project. Creating an illustrated sequence and animating it is very impressive and this video does it well. I appreciate also that the actual mockups and screens are illustrated as well, […]

App Video Inspo 1

https://www.behance.net/gallery/76784089/Swissfund-App-Adobe-XDAuto-animation-XD-DOWNLOAD This is an extremely simple app video but probably closer to what my first ever aftereffects video will actually look like. I like that the logo, name, and basic functions remain static on the screen and do not distract from the app screen. I think that it would have been nice if that video […]

App Animation Inspo 5

https://www.behance.net/gallery/61755077/Passably-App-UXUI-Design While its movement is minimized, the click in this video is also a little distracting. I appreciate how the boxes slide onto the screen although it looks like some of them appear a little early in one place. I think this animation shows how important timing can be because there are some places where […]

App Animation Inspo 4

https://www.behance.net/gallery/74435531/App-Design-for-Online-Clinic I think the speed of this animation is a lot closer to reality and makes it easier to follow. I like how the blocks move up and down the screen and the buttons actually look clicked in addition to showing a click. One thing that does really bother me is that you can see […]
