How I’m using Claude as a motion designer for my client projects. Recently started using Claude for parts of my motion workflow, especially UI screens, micro-interactions, icon animations, glass effects, and stuff like that. Here’s how: I connected Figma to Claude through MCP, so I can just give it the exact frame name from our storyboard and explain what I want to animate. I’m pretty specific with my prompts. I mention the motion style, timing, and how everything should behave. Clean, minimal, smooth animations. Nothing too bouncy or exaggerated. Once I’m happy with the result, I export it as a video in whatever resolution I need and bring it into After Effects for the final animation. The biggest advantage? TIME. Not every UI screen needs heavy, detailed animation. Some just need simple interactions to communicate what’s happening. Instead of spending hours manually animating those smaller details, I can get them done much faster with Claude. This gives me more time to focus on the actual motion direction, transitions, and scenes that need more attention. I’m not replacing After Effects. I’m just cutting down the repetitive parts of my workflow. Still exploring what else I can do with Claude. Will definitely share more as I figure things out!

happy 22!!! 🫶🏻 sometimes i think about how different my life could’ve been if a few things had gone differently. i moved from kerala to ahmedabad thinking i’d become a fashion designer. had no clue what i was doing, no one to guide me, just figuring things out as i went. then i met @thatwrapperguy in college. he saw something in me that i hadn’t seen myself and suggested i switch to communication design. i trusted him, took the biggest turn in my life, and somehow found my way. the last few years weren’t all great. lots of confusion, wrong turns, trying everything from filmmaking, video editing, 3D, graphic design, UI/UX to animation, losing people, starting over. but some people came into my life at exactly the right time, and i’m grateful for that. now, 2 years into motion design, building @btrxinfinity with vraj, i still have a long way to go. but looking back at the kid who was editing videos on a phone during lockdown, i think she’d be pretty happy to see where we are. 22 today. still figuring life out, still dreaming bigger. just a little more sure of myself this time. there’s so much more i want to do. we’re only getting started.

If AI makes great execution accessible to everyone, what actually sets designers apart? Been thinking about this lately. Wrote some thoughts down. Lmk what you think.
If AI makes high-quality execution accessible to almost everyone, what becomes the real competitive advantage for designers? Been thinking about this. Wrote it down. Lmk what you think.

Applied for #Config India 2026. Didn’t make the in-person list this time. Still really excited to see what Figma is doing around motion and design. Would’ve loved to experience it in Bangalore. Love you, @figma 🫶🏻 See you around👀
