Animation use cases
Make brand motion work where it matters.
Use a logo reveal to open a video, a photo loop to energize a campaign or an animated icon to guide a product moment. Choose the placement first, then shape the motion and export format around it.
Choose the placement first
Give every animation a clear job.
A strong animation is built for where it will be seen. Decide whether a logo, photo or icon should lead, how long the viewer has and what the destination can play before choosing the motion and file format.
Social media
Create short logo loops, animated campaign photos and moving symbols for fast-scrolling feeds. Match the canvas to the placement and keep the main idea readable at phone size.
Video intros and outros
Open or close YouTube videos, product demos and campaign films with consistent motion branding. Use a concise reveal and leave enough time for the final logo to register.
Websites and product UI
Use a focused reveal, image moment, interface response, loading state or animated symbol to support orientation without competing with the page or product.
Email and campaigns
Add a compact animated mark or campaign image where the email client supports it. Make the first frame meaningful and keep dimensions and file size under control.
Presentations and events
Build a dependable branded opener, transition or intermission for decks, webinars, conference screens and digital signage. Test the final video on the playback setup before the event.
Editing and compositing
Carry transparent video or individual frames into an editing, broadcast, streaming or compositing workflow when you need alpha support or frame-level control.
See it in motion
See how the asset changes the move.
Preview one logo, photo and icon animation, then open the example in Studio to replace the source, adjust its effect-specific controls and shape the timing around your own placement.

Quick guide
Match the format to the destination.
Start with the option most widely suited to the placement, then check the practical alternative when transparency, sound, file size or software support changes the requirement.
| Placement | Start with | Alternative | Check before publishing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Social or video platform | MP4 | WebM | Aspect ratio, duration, sound, and platform compression. |
| Website animation | WebP | WebM | File size, autoplay rules, fallback image, and reduced motion. |
| Email campaign | GIF | PNG | Client support, first-frame meaning, dimensions, and file size. |
| Transparent video overlay | WebM | PNG ZIP | Alpha playback support; transparent WebM export remains silent. |
| Editing or compositing | PNG ZIP | WebM | Frame rate, canvas size, alpha handling, and sequence order. |
