Motion Design in User Experience: The perception and use of motion design in graphical user interfaces

Motion design provides user guidance within applications and systems using movement and animation to communicate to the user where to focus, what to do next, and help them navigate within visual interfaces. Motion design can communicate with a user through gestures, movements, efficacy, and feedback in participation with new technologies. This book will identify and elaborate on the value of motion design within new technologies and its impact on the user experience within various products and applications. In the early 21st century as the technology sector advances and offers consumers diverse products that range from a variety of screen sizes, sensors capabilities, and wearable products, motion design is increasingly becoming an integral and essential part of user experience between human and computer interaction. Motion and imagery define the user experience and the perception of context across a range of systems and applications. This book is based on a series of supporting materials including historic use cases, motion patterns, gesture behaviors, and observations in order to delineate the argument. All of the above will be studied on how emerging technologies can impact user experience through the lens of motion design. This book is written for UI / UX designers, motion graphics artists, animators, developers, engineers, stakeholders, and creators of digital products, services, and applications who are interested to bring unique and meaningful interactions to their user experience with motion design.
