Bring your website graphics to life. Get static illustrations, banners and logos animated for only $199 per asset or grab unlimited service for a fixed price.
Hey everyone ππ
We're super excited to introduce Motion, which marks our third productized service following the success of Flowout (design & development for Webflow) and Storehelper (Shopify development).
This time, we're taking a different direction by diving headfirst into the world of animation. Our goal is to launch a dedicated animation service, and we've carefully crafted two plans for the initial launch:
π Pay-per-animation: Perfect for those who need animation services on a project-by-project basis. You provide the design files and we bring them to life with stunning animations.
π Monthly unlimited subscription: Tailored for agencies and freelancers who require a continuous stream of animations. Enjoy unlimited access to our animation services with no hidden costs.
We want to particularly hear from agencies and freelancers in the community what you think about this service, but any kind of feedback is welcome from everyone π Your insights and suggestions are invaluable to us as we fine-tune both the web experience and our business model.
Thanks in advance for helping us shape this exciting venture! π
@a007mr Hey! There have already been a couple of requests like this and we do have the ability to support you with design from scratch. Schedule a call with us and we can discuss the details! π
Woahhhhh! Animation as a service, this is epic!
I think I remember you from Popsy @heygalx - Super impressed with this new project. Whoever you're working with is lucky to be your colleague! β‘οΈ
Do you have any plans to add rive.app? Saw them recently and they looked cool.
The subscription model is a neat twist.
Some feedback on landing since you asked in launch notes -
I sort of felt like I wanted to see more animations on your home page (outside of examples), maybe on 'book a demo' button, or elsewhere on the page?
The messages on the far right feel disconnected a bit, I can't really tell Michelle is 'texting' Alex. (They feel very far apart.)
The "Get a demo", "pay online" cards are in the same format as the ones above them ("animate your logos"), so I don't realise they are a user flow depiction unless I read them a few times. Maybe adding an arrow/motion indicator to signify I should read them LTR?
My hottest feedback take - I would like to be able to pay w/o doing a demo, I think I understand the intent behind demo-walling it, but still feel that it's sort of a big customer burden on my side to do a call for something I'm trying to outsource π (Not trying to be rude, just transparently wish I could click a buy button.)
CONGRATS On your launch! π This is epic, hope to see your animations everywhere :D
@esus Hey Esus thanks so much, yeah you're right about Popsy - I kinda started my marketing & startup journey there, then moving on to Flowout and look at it - we have our third productized service in motion now (pun intended hehe) π
Will have to look into rive, thanks for sharing. But for now we'll stick to the current offer which is providing animations done by professionals per asset or for unlimited retainer model :)
Appreciate all the landing page feedback too, we already implemented some of it - for example on the pricing page you can now buy directly without having to go through the demo: https://www.motion.design/pricing
Again I really appreciate you taking the time to comment on this, we'll definitely take it into account π
@bonvisions Thanks Bon, appreciate it π What do you think of the animations, do they make a better user experience for you and engage you more when visiting a website?
Great launch @heygalx ! The idea of animating graphics is awesome but it's always been a big challenge for non-designers. The pricing seems reasonable too.
How does the process of animating the assets work? Are there any specific file formats you accept?
Looking forward to trying out Motion and adding some animated magic to my websites!
Hey! @gusoliveira_ Thanks for the kind words! We would love to work with you on animating your website assets!
To answer your other questions. Vector files are preferred. πAnd the experience is very straightforward.
1. Choose if you want to go with the pay per animation package or the unlimited subscription
2. send us the number of assets you want to get animated.
3. We start working on the request in 1-3 business days and you get the results shortly after.
You have 3 revisions included in the pay per animation package and unlimited revisions in the unlimited package. After you're satisfied with the animation we send it to you in lottie,mp4 and gif formats.
That is it. π
@raineconor Thanks Raine! Yeah it's something rarely seen I think and part of it why we're doing this - a lot of websites could use some animations to boost conversions, engagements etc. but don't really know how.
That's why providing a simple and clear service is win-win for both sides π Appreciate all the feedback, thanks again.
@rajat_dhamija Hey thanks Rajat, appreciate it π Let me know if anything is unclear or you need some help with the service, we're always here to help.
By the way we just updated the pricing page so you can now start with the project asap instead of having to go through with the demo π https://www.motion.design/pricing
Congrats on the launch π Sounds like a great service.
Is it $199 per animation no matter the complexity? I'm curious about your pricing structure and what led you to choose a fixed rate instead of a variable one based on the level of animation intricacy.
@maria_hagsten Thanks! π Yes for now all animated assets are $199. You provide us with a static image and we animate it. π We decided to go this way to make it very transparent for small one time tasks like animating a logo or a banner or a small number of illustrations. For customers that require more support and have a lot of assets that need to be animated it quickly makes sense to jump to an unlimited monthly subscription.
Giving companies a high-design, effortless option for a higher fee is a great way to extend your product line. Lots of people would pay more to do less. Love the concept, congrats on a sweet launch!
