Motion Graphics is where graphic design starts moving — you take the visual vocabulary you already know (type, shape, composition) and learn to choreograph it across time, with sound and pacing as new variables. The semester is built almost entirely around three studio projects in After Effects, starting with a "Word as Image" kinetic typography piece and escalating to fuller compositions involving masks, shape morphing, parenting, and mixed vector/raster workflows. It sits as the bridge between static GRA studio work and anything time-based you'll do later (title sequences, UI motion, video work), so the real takeaway is learning to think about a design as a sequence of frames rather than a single layout.
