Motion Design With Figma Animations Motion Graphics Uxui

Just launched with all modern Motion Design principles and best practices for 2022! This is a project based course where we are going to learn by building many design projects to add to your portfolio together! Join a live online community of over 600,000+ students and a course taught by industry experts that have actually worked both in Silicon Valley and Toronto for top companies. Graduates of Andrei’s courses are now working at Google, Tesla, Amazon, Apple, IBM, JP Morgan, Facebook, + other top tech companies.

Using the latest best practices in Motion Design, as well as User Interface and User Experience Design (UI/UX), this course focuses on efficiently teaching you all about building Interactions, Animations and Motion Graphic for all your future Web and Mobile App projects. We will be using Figma to accomplish this, which is now the #1 tool used by modern designers, and is replacing all outdated design tools of the past.

We will provide all Figma files, premium design templates, and assets in this course for you, so you can keep and use them when you work with all your future clients! We guarantee you this is the most comprehensive online resource on Motion Design, Microinteractions, Animations and creating beautiful UX/UI!

Taught By:

Andrei is the instructor of the highest rated Development courses on Udemy as well as one of the fastest growing. His graduates have moved on to work for some of the biggest tech companies around the world like Apple, Google, Tesla, Amazon, JP Morgan, IBM, UNIQLO etc... He has been working as a senior software developer in Silicon Valley and Toronto for many years, and is now taking all that he has learned, to teach programming skills and to help you discover the amazing career opportunities that being a developer allows in life.

Having been a self taught programmer, he understands that there is an overwhelming number of online courses, tutorials and books that are overly verbose and inadequate at teaching proper skills. Most people feel paralyzed and don't know where to start when learning a complex subject matter, or even worse, most people don't have $20,000 to spend on a coding bootcamp. Programming skills should be affordable and open to all. An education material should teach real life skills that are current and they should not waste a student's valuable time. Having learned important lessons from working for Fortune 500 companies, tech startups, to even founding his own business, he is now dedicating 100% of his time to teaching others valuable software development skills in order to take control of their life and work in an exciting industry with infinite possibilities.

Andrei promises you that there are no other courses out there as comprehensive and as well explained. He believes that in order to learn anything of value, you need to start with the foundation and develop the roots of the tree. Only from there will you be able to learn concepts and specific skills(leaves) that connect to the foundation. Learning becomes exponential when structured in this way.

Taking his experience in educational psychology and coding, Andrei's courses will take you on an understanding of complex subjects that you never thought would be possible.
