4 steps to creating a motion graphics designer job description that fits your needs

Motion graphics designers have a range of expertise in varied industries, so it is crucial that you understand what you need before hiring. Below are some additional factors to consider when choosing the right fit for your project:

1. Determine what type of motion graphics designer you need

Motion graphics are used across disciplines, including motion pictures, television shows, marketing and advertising, educational videos, and more. A motion graphics designer with experience in advertising will bring a skills relevant to ad campaigns, whereas a motion graphics designer with experience in film might be a better fit to create graphics for a title sequence. Look for a motion graphics designer with relevant experience in your field.

2. Employee vs. independent contractor vs. agency

Motion graphics designers can be hired in-house, contracted through an agency, or independently as a freelancer. Your specific project needs will help direct you to the ideal kind of hire for your company. A full-time in-house employee might be an excellent fit for an ad agency that already has a team of creatives (art director, videographer, copywriters). An agency will provide a team of motion graphics designers who can collaborate to fulfill various project needs. An independent freelancer might be the way to go if you are looking to fill a gap in your creative team for a specialized project. Worker classification can be tricky, so check out our compliance services resources page for more information.

3. Experience

The more experience a motion graphics designer has, the more complex projects they’ll be able to complete for your business. An entry-level motion graphics designer might create compelling visual transitions between PowerPoint slides or add typography to a short video. A senior-level motion graphics designer might manage a creative team by creating an entire advertisement from storyboarding to design execution. The scope of your project will help determine your talent staffing needs.

4. Industry

Motion graphics are used in virtually every industry. Motion graphics designers who create opening sequences for tv shows might also work in music videos or advertising. These skills tend to transfer between sectors easily, but it’s still beneficial to look for someone with a working knowledge of your industry.

It is just the way I am. I don't just go through the motions. I give my very best to every project. I believe in over-delivering. This quality is what has set me apart as a designer and editor. I strive to understand your problem first, and I'll work hard on your solution. I am a seasoned pro with over 15 years of experience as a motion designer and editor. I’ve worked with ad agencies, political campaigns, production companies, global nonprofits, and Fortune 500 brands. Some projects are fast-turnaround edits using talking heads and b-roll, like the educational piece I created for Save the Children Action Network. Others are more design-heavy — like the end-of-year wrap-up I built for a pharmaceutical company, or the 20-minute animated projection I created for Stravinsky’s Les Noces, performed live with the San Francisco Symphony and Esa-Pekka Salonen. I’ve jumped into half-finished projects, built pieces entirely from scratch, and shaped creative direction when there wasn’t much to go on. I'm flexible in how I work — just tell me what you need, and I’ll meet you there. If you're looking for someone who takes your work seriously and delivers with clarity, rhythm, and care, I’d love to hear what you're working on.

I integrate all three. I ensure your video ads match your landing page, and your landing page works perfectly with your checkout code. * Immersive Storytelling: I don't just display information; I make it move. From UI micro-interactions to full promotional videos, I use motion to capture attention and increase time-on-site. * Technical Versatility: I don't force you into one tool.
