Workshop | Motion Design for UX with LottieFiles
βπ― For UX and product designers | π§ Intermediate | π Interactive session | π 60 minutes | π₯ 40 seats | π΅ $50 Standard / $25 Uxcel Pro
βMotion design is quickly becoming an expected skill in modern product teams, yet many designers still treat it as a separate specialty reserved for animation experts.
βIf you already design in Figma, youβre much closer to shipping production-ready motion than you might think.
βIn this session, youβll learn how to turn your existing Figma assets into real product animations using LottieFiles β from animating vectors to exporting production-ready code ready for developer handoff.
βThe workshop is led by Jaime Creixems, Motion Design Strategist at LottieFiles, who brings more than 20 years of experience in motion and product design.
βBy the end of the session, youβll have a working Lottie animation built from your own Figma assets and a practical Figma-to-Lottie cheat sheet that guides you step by step to create high-quality animations.
βπ§ What You'll Learn
βHow to create animations directly from your existing Figma vectors using the LottieFiles plugin.
βHow to convert Figma prototypes into animations without rebuilding anything from scratch.
βHow to use AI to animate SVGs quickly and with greater control.
βHow to use motion presets and tokens for consistent, scalable motion design systems.
βHow to publish animations into production-ready HTML code ready for developer handoff.
βπ Agenda
βAnimating Figma vectors (10 mins): Get your first Lottie animation running directly from Figma using the LottieFiles plugin.
βConverting Figma prototypes into Lottie animations (5 mins): Turn existing Figma prototype interactions into Lottie-ready animation files without starting from scratch.
βAnimating SVGs using AI (20 mins): Use AI-powered tools inside Lottie Creator to animate SVGs faster, with more flexibility and less manual effort.
βMotion presets and tokens for design systems (10 mins): Use Lottie Creator's Motion presets and tokens to build and maintain consistent motion across an entire product.
βPublishing animations into code (HTML) (5 mins): Export your animations into production-ready HTML, ready to hand off to engineering without back-and-forth.
βQ&A (10 mins): Open floor to ask Jaime anything from workflow questions to how motion fits into your specific design context.
