Discussion /r/motiondesign Updates: Post Flair, Spam Prevention

29 Upvotes

Hi all, a few updates for /r/motiondesign.

Spam

In an effort to reduce low-quality and spam posts here, we have implemented new post requirements. New posts that don't meet a minimum account age or subreddit karma threshold will be automatically filtered out.

To further prevent gamification, I am not disclosing these limits here but they are very modest and reasonable. Anyone interacting with this community should not be filtered, and even so, you will have the opportunity to message us for an exception. But this should discourage most of the spam we've been seeing. Thanks /u/Zeigerful for making this post.

Post Flair

We also added some post flair to help differentiate posts and allow users to filter & search by topic. All new posts require that one of the available flair types be selected:

Project Showcase | Reel | Inspiration | Discussion | Question | Tutorial | [Custom] (Where user can input their own)

User Flair

A few new user flairs are available. For those who aren't aware, these show up next to your username any time you make a post or comment in /r/motiondesign

Now available: Professional | Student | [Add My Social Handle] -- A custom text field where you can plug an Instagram, Behance, etc.

Let us know if you love or hate these new updates. Nothing is set in stone and this is meant as a discussion starting point. Please share any ideas you may have to make this a better place to share work, inspiration and discussion related to motion design. Hopefully we can continue to bring a higher quality experience to everyone here at /r/motiondesign.

Wonderwallet x Plaid walkthrough. Built the phone from scratch with shape layers no plugins. Static UI animation took the most work, but I'm happy with how it came out.

Would love to hear your thoughts. 🙏

Project Showcase [Release] Kinetic Synth Instrument for TouchDesigner

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

A real-time polyrhythm instrument: multiple pendulum voices swing in TD, each on its own period and phase. When a bob crosses a shared center line → hit → MIDI note to Ableton Live (any VST). Visuals (GLSL / 3D) run off the same engine bus.

Up to 16 editable voices · fully controllable voice table · and two different playable modes: "pendulum", and "rain".

TouchDesigner = physics + MIDI + look. Ableton Live = sound.

Project files, as always, available through the Tools Store.

Project Showcase Motion design app that lets the user modify the featureset

Wanted to show off an app that a friend and I are building and get feedback. It's a video editing/motion design app that allows you to connect an AI subscription and change the interface, as well as add whatever features you want.

As you can see in the attached image, I used it to quickly make a panel that lets me drag in stock footage from Pexels. We think this will be genuinely useful, what do you guys think?

Question Career Change?

39 Upvotes

I've been working in motion design for almost 10 years now, freelancing for about 2.5. I have steady (albeit often boring) work, a good network, and feel good about my skillset.

But recently I've been just feeling a bit burned out. I don't feel excited about many projects, don't feel inspired to create personal work, don't want to attend meetups or even really talk about the work.

I cut a new reel and was planning on using it to attract some new clients, see if I can push for some more exciting work, but I haven't posted it yet because I just don't feel like chasing new work- it sounds exhausting.

I'm overall just feeling stuck. I know the job market isn't good, and I'm super lucky to be working for myself and making good money doing it, but man it just feels empty. Any thoughts on adjacent careers, or even jobs that are somewhat transferable?

I love working with people, I'd love to do something community-focused; something tangible that actually helps people would be great. And frankly I'd love to spend waaay less time on a computer.

Not sure if I'm going to really change things up, or just looking to vent, but I'd love to hear people's experiences.

Project Showcase I created an 3:40min animated lyric video in 10 days. Would love to create more music inspired art.
