A beginner's guide to Lottie

A beginner's guide to Lottie

Are you a motion or UI/UX designer? And are you new to motion- and interactive design? Then, this Beginner’s Guide to Lottie is the right start for you.

Why should you learn about Lottie?

Lottie is an open-source text and vector-based file format which will make designing and deploying animations so much easier. If you take the time to understand and work with Lottie, it will be easier to ship/share animations, you will experience higher cross-platform compatibility, your file sizes will shrink dramatically, and you will find it much easier to collaborate during the creating process. Almost all of the top 200 apps on the App Store already use Lottie to engage users and enhance conversions.

What will you learn in this course?

In this course, Salih Abdul-Karim, the Design Lead at Airbnb, will share his knowledge and tips and tricks on creating Lottie animations and the essential tools you need to get started. In addition, you will have a complete overview of the LottieFiles platform and its opportunities.

Salih will walk you through the “Animation Principles” – easing, anticipation, follow through and overlap, secondary action, and how to put these foundations to use.

Finally, we will dig into the details of creating micro-interactions like hearts, switches, or buttons and understanding how to create interactive walkthroughs, work with images, expressions, and dynamic properties. You will also learn how to use your favorite vector assets in Adobe After Effects CC.

By the end of this course, you will have successfully created your first Lottie animation and gotten a good understanding of animation techniques and principles.

What tools do you need?

• Adobe After Effects CC

• Adobe Illustrator CC

• Bodymovin (ZXP) or LottieFiles plugin for After Effects (ZXP)
