exaggerated-clarity
Use when motion needs to read clearly and powerfully—broad comedy, action highlights, important story beats, or any moment that must unmistakably communicate to the audience.
emotional-narrative
Use when animation needs to convey feeling, tell a story, or connect emotionally—character moments, dramatic beats, or any motion that should make the audience care.
character-appeal
Use when creating or animating characters that need to connect with audiences—hero protagonists, memorable villains, lovable sidekicks, or any figure that must have personality and presence.
attention-direction
Use when controlling where the audience looks—composing shots, choreographing action, revealing information, or any situation requiring clear visual hierarchy and focus management.
anticipation-payoff
Use when designing action sequences, gags, reveals, or any motion that needs setup before delivery—preparing audiences for what's coming and maximizing impact.
web-motion-design
Use when building CSS animations, JavaScript transitions, React/Vue motion, or any browser-based animation work.
video-motion-graphics
Use when creating After Effects compositions, Premiere Pro motion, video titles, explainer videos, or broadcast motion graphics.
ux-friction
Use when animation causes user confusion, delays task completion, or creates frustration
user-feedback-clarity
Use when users don't notice feedback, miss state changes, or can't tell if their action worked
universal-solutions
Use when facing any animation problem as a comprehensive diagnostic framework
timing-calibration
Use when animation speed feels wrong—too fast, too slow, or inconsistent
technical-constraints
Use when animation is limited by browser support, platform capabilities, or technical requirements
performance-optimization
Use when animation runs slow, janky, or causes frame drops
motion-sickness
Use when animation causes dizziness, nausea, disorientation, or vestibular discomfort
implementation-debugging
Use when animation doesn't work as expected, has bugs, or behaves inconsistently
emotional-disconnect
Use when animation feels wrong, creates unintended emotional response, or mismatches context
brand-consistency
Use when animation doesn't match brand personality, feels generic, or clashes with design language
attention-management
Use when wrong elements get attention, important content is missed, or visual hierarchy is broken by animation
Animation Principles - Teaching Others
Use when someone needs to explain animation principles to students, mentees, or team members at various skill levels
accessibility-issues

timing-principle-mastery
Use when determining animation durations, controlling pacing, establishing rhythm, or making motion feel appropriately weighted and emotionally resonant.
straight-ahead-pose-mastery
Use when planning animation workflows, deciding between spontaneous vs controlled approaches, or balancing creative freedom with structural precision.
staging-mastery
Use when composing scenes, designing layouts, directing user attention, or ensuring a single clear idea is communicated at any given moment.
slow-in-out-mastery
Use when designing easing curves, controlling motion pacing, creating natural acceleration/deceleration, or making movements feel physically grounded.
solid-drawing-mastery
Use when creating motion that needs dimensional grounding, designing transforms that maintain object integrity, or ensuring animations feel structurally sound.
secondary-action-mastery
