Motion
The motion system extends the expression and functionality of the layout system of the graphic elements system.
Overview
The motion system comprises several behaviors which can be
combined with video, imagery, color and typography to create
endless iterations of motion expression.
Behavior: Focus
The focus graphic element is created from a series of circles. When
used together, these circles create the effect of a lens focus. The circles
are always concentric and can be scaled and placed to create
flexible and unique layouts.
Behavior: Light
Our light graphic element is created from the shape of our logo,
which itself is inspired by light shining down on a stage.
Behavior: Time
Our light graphic element is created from the shape of our logo,
which itself is inspired by light shining down on a stage.
Transitions
Time and focus can be used as a transitional element to reveal the
screen from one to another.
Typography
Typography that exists outside the motion behavior system can be
animated using simple easing and y-axis scroll transitions.

Pacing and Easing
The proper pacing and easing sets the mood of the brand
communication. The graph below is showing the rate of
change of a parameter over time. This is not the definitive rule
for every easing, but avoid using overly exaggerated,
overshooting or bouncing.
General Rules
The pacing decides the overall mood for the system. Animation
should help to set the ambiance of the design, not to compete
with mood.
Do
01.
Use audio/VO/FX to complement motion
when appropriate.
02.
Keep a dynamic mix of photography, video
and typography.
03.
Always refer to the design system. Motion is an
extension of the design system and should
follow the same layout principles as the core
design system.
Don't
01.
Don't mix too many of motion. Use the
required amount that tells the story with the
appropriate amount of expression.
02.
Don't overuse the application of motion. Only
use motion when it enhances the message.
03.
Don't overuse the motion behaviors.
Sometimes only the animation of typography
may be necessary.
