A motion designer creates animated graphics to visually communicate ideas, stories, or brand messages. They use movement, sound, and visual effects to bring static designs to life, making content more engaging and dynamic. Motion designers work in various fields, including advertising, film, and digital marketing, using tools like Adobe After Effects and Cinema 4D to craft animations for videos, social media, websites, and apps.
A digital illustrator creates artwork using digital tools like tablets and software such as Adobe Illustrator or Procreate. Their work spans many formats, including character designs, book illustrations, branding assets, and editorial images. Digital illustrators can use a wide array of effects and layers, allowing for high versatility and precision in styles—from highly detailed, realistic illustrations to simple, stylized visuals.
