About

The Motion League was formed in early 2011 when six guys on Twitter joked about forming a superhero league of motion designers. Many @replies & bad jokes about “The Subdivider” and Rorschach masks later, we decided to start a little slower and get a website going first. And here we are.

The goal of The Motion League is fairly simple: to be a premiere resource for motion designers of all abilities. There are really two wings to the site: a blog and a community forum. The blog features original articles, interviews, and tutorials; links to inspiration from around the web and beyond; and showcases great talent that doesn’t normally get seen. The forum is a place for motion designers to talk shop, get feedback on their work, ask questions, and help each other out.

Not everyone is working on sexy national campaigns for high-profile clients airing during the Superbowl. There’s lots of great work & talented motion designers out there. We want to showcase that work, help improve people’s craft, and connect each other to improve the motion design community. And if one day we get superhero names and costumes and fight the evils of the world with After Effects, that would be okay, too.
