Exploring 3D at Nossi
Intro
Motion graphics is graphic design that changes over time—type, shapes, images, and sound working together to communicate fast. At Nossi, Byron Raphael teaches students how to make motion feel natural with clear typography, purposeful timing, and clean handoffs for production. The focus is practical: ideas you can publish, skills teams can use.
How Byron Teaches Motion Graphics
Early projects build confidence quickly: a short informational social video by week three, then concept-driven assignments that scale. Students learn the habit that makes work look professional—easing (smooth starts and stops)—along with consistent pacing and smart editing. Just as important, Byron enforces file hygiene (organized folders, named layers, packaged projects) so collaboration is painless.
“Byron brings professional standards to motion graphics—clean typography, purposeful timing, and files teams can use immediately.”
— Dr. Mark Mabry, Graphic Design Department Chair
What You’ll Make
Across the term, students create pieces that fit real briefs: brand/type animations, product/tech explainers, and music-driven sequences. The goal is clarity over chaos—work that communicates in seconds and holds up in a portfolio. Short projects lead to a focused final that shows range and readiness without overstuffing a reel.
Why It Matters
Motion graphics shows up everywhere—social, broadcast, events, product demos, and internal explainers. Finishing pieces you can actually post is the fastest way to grow. Byron’s mantra: make it exist, then iterate with feedback. Publish, learn, repeat.
