🚀 Partner with Product Designers to storyboard onboarding flows, training milestones, and reward moments.
🧩 Build and maintain a motion library: state machines, triggers, nested animations—optimized for smooth developer hand-off.
📝 Create comprehensive documentation for all animation assets, including usage guidelines, technical specifications, and implementation notes.
🎨 Establish a cohesive motion language: timing, easing, anticipation, personality.
🛠 Prototype quickly, test in Figma, and iterate based on data and feedback.
