Polish! We heard it was good
It doesn't have to be fancy to do it's job, but - we want you to be confident that it will / and motion graphics are FUN!
Motion graphics
A while back, Derek went down a motion graphics rabbit hole. It’s way too fun - and he loves learning new things… but, maybe to a fault??? hahaha
We decided to bring in a specialist so that Derek didn’t spend 4 months creating a course all about motion graphics. Sometimes you just need to get things produced!
Specialists
We found Nathan. http://nathangerhard.com
We showed him our style guides and talked to him about the “feel” for our school - and he came up with some really great transitions to give our videos that magic feel. We pride ourselves on doing everything in-house vs. just outsourcing a whole marketing team (we design and build everything that is P.E.) / but that doesn’t mean we can’t work with production artists! Working together is fun!!! and knowing when to collaborate is a big part of what we teach.
We think they are really cool… and we keep wanting to watch them… so, we combined all the intros into this little video.
[[[ these are just little clips to show the animations… ]]]
(some people wrote us saying this was confusing… if you want to hear all of the faq videos - in full - then go to the home page and watch them! : )
We “Designed” the sounds!
Derek made the music for the intros / and Ivy helped match them to their subjects - and here they are!
It’s really fun to see things come together - and soon, our primary promo video will be ready - and we can take a break from this marketing stuff!!!
Design for The Web - isn’t just - about HTML and wireframes…
Videos are a HUGE part of communication. That’s why we teach a much bigger picture than just “how to code.”
