+  "text": "As designers, before beginning your art direction, it's always good to start with the mood board. Finding the right kind of inspiration can really help you understand where you want to be heading in terms of design. Well, the same applies to motion. You should always try to add some motion inspiration to your mood board. Figuring out how the elements are going to move will influence how you will place them on the page. So the design and the motion are really interconnected. When you see a motion that you really like online, you should copy it to your computer and try to understand what it is that you like about that animation. You can slow it down, even watch it frame by frame to really understand how everything moves. That's a great way to learn, and it will make it easier for you to animate something similar in After Effects. There are a bunch of different sources out there to get inspired for your motion. Obviously, you can check the websites on the word, they usually have some pretty cool animations. You can also go on B-Ans, Pinterest, Musely or Dribble. I personally like Dribble, you should definitely follow Zenya Renzuk, who is incredibly talented. You should also check out the work of Louis Yensa who integrates animation in a very clever way in all of his projects. But the most original motion ideas that I get usually come from other sources like movies, comic books and of course real life. That's where you can get these never before seen ideas. Let's take for example the website that I did for Editorial New. Like its name entails, the font is really for editorial purposes. So I wanted to play around with the concept of a newspaper. And I don't know if you remember these spinning newspapers that you would see on old TV shows when there was a breaking news. I thought it would be really cool and original to have the website spin and zoom like a newspaper when you scroll through it. So that's what we did! Just keep in mind that wherever you get your inspiration from, it should say just that. Inspiration. It's okay to get inspired by the work of others. Everyone does it. But always remember that a little inspiration is good, but too much is just plain plagiarism.",
