Creating Usability with Motion (now in SF!)

????? "This workshop has helped me expand my arsenal of design vocabulary. As a designer, it is crucial to be able to pitch and sell your designs. Knowing the vocabulary and informed reasoning will help you get traction of your design by the stakeholders and team members. This workshop has delivered on that."– Mhung, UX Designer, Mindbody, San Luis Obispo



Have you had limited success when it comes to designing motion in digital products?
Have you ever tried to design motion in your digital products but found that you’re not as effective as you want to be?
Have you decided to learn a prototyping tool that allowed you to design motion, and you watched a bunch of tutorials, but it just didn’t go anywhere? 
Maybe you’ve seen a lot of cool motion in digital products and portfolio sites and you want to start creating motion, but you're not sure where to start. 
Learn motion the right way
I designed this workshop to help you learn motion the right way, and get motion seamlessly and consistently into your workflow. 
What most designers don’t realize (until it’s too late) is that designing and implementing motion is extremely complex. There are many moving parts. If you don’t think and act strategically, you’re going to end up spinning your wheels, or worse, wasting your time. 
You need a design strategy 
Additionally, motion design and implementation is incredibly expensive which is why stakeholders are often reluctant to commit resources. 
To win at this game, you need to focus on the highest leverage activities and strategies. I have a name for this. I call it 'the barbell' and I teach you how to focus on mastering low-fidelity AND high-fidelity motion based deliverables.  
If you don’t do this, and you start designing motion without knowing how to connect your motion to mental models (and manage critical conversations with stakeholders), your work and results will be essentially random. Maybe you'll win somtimes, but overall you won't be consistant. 
I created this workshop for you to master the 5 critical areas that are required to be effective in the world of motion innovation in digital products. These five areas include –

Ideation (how to generate and refine motion based concepts)
Analysis (how to read the 'source code' from motion examples)
Mental models (how users make sense of motion and how to connect this to your design)
Motion DNA (what are the fundamental principles of what makes motion work)
Strategy (how to win your meetings and conversations with stakeholders)

About me
After working for 15 years for top Fortune 500 companies and developing motion for digital products, I developed an exclusive motion innovation framework and workshop that I’ve been teaching to design teams at leading tech companies around the world. Recent onsite private workshops include Dropbox, Slack, and Salesforce.
I’ve also been writing and sharing my framework and strategies on motion innovation online. 
My published articles on motion and usability have received over 542,000 views on Medium.com. Click here to view my most viewed article on motion and usability. 
My online tutorials on high fidelity prototyping have been viewed over 389,000 times on YouTube. 

Workshop results
After this workshop you will be able to take any design file you are working on, generate motion based solution that connect to user mental models, and present your ideas in a language that resonates with stakeholders. 
I've taught this workshop to literally hundreds of designers around the world. After each workshop, I collect as much data as I can, and redesign the entire workshop. Based on recent feedback, this current workshop version is the best I've ever taught. 
Unfortunately due to scheduling and time constrains I can only offer this workshop 4 times a year in the Bay Area.
Also, due to the hands on nature of the workshop and exercises, I have to limit the number of available seats to 20 (available first come first serve).

You will receive a confirmation email with the event details. You will receive your bonuses after your attend the workshop. 
I highly recommend that if you have any interest in succeeding in being effective with motion, you register for this workshop. 
If for some reason you miss the boat, you’ll have to wait another three months for this to become available (perhaps next year).

Workshop curriculum 
This workshop is divided into 5 modules. You will have several breaks throughout the day, including lunch, which will be provided. During the day, you will have several hands on paper prototyping exercises where you will ideate and present motion based solutions to real world design challenges. 
Module 1: Fast start 10:00am – 11:00amLearn how motion creates partnership with UX. 
Module 2: Motion creates meaning11:00am – 12:00pmLearn how users make sense of motion and how you can leverage this in your work.   
Module 3: Mental models12:00pm – 1:00pmLearn how to use the 3 kinds of mental models when designing motion. EXERCISE: Mental model creation and presentation
Lunch1:00pm – 2:00pm
Module 4: Ideation and presentation2:00pm – 3:30pmLearn how to generate motion based hypothesis, tactical deliverables, and use stakeholder based language to present and share your ideas. EXERCISE: Motion sketching and presentation
Module 5: Analysis3:30pm – 5:00pmLearn how to take any app or reference, un-collapse the ideas from the execution, and build a virtual dashboard of ideas to inform your ideation process.EXERCISE: Motion sketching and presentation 
????? "This workshop offers you a chance to quickly learn and discuss high level usability and motion examples in an open format. Wishing I could do this workshop weekly with my entire team."– Andre, Visual Designer, Bank of America, Oakland
