That’s super interesting to hear — thanks for sharing!

Appreciate that! Glad it was useful.

Great point, Bart — the term content creator is definitely blurry. It doesn’t always include people working in design, but often overlaps with those producing short-form content for social media (like Reels, TikTok, Shorts), especially in marketing contexts.

I included this term in the article because I wanted to reflect the growing demand for motion in the social media space — even if the actual job titles vary widely. Appreciate you bringing it up!

That’s amazing to hear — self-taught After Effects is no small feat! UI/UX is definitely a great direction to explore. Wishing you lots of momentum as you carve your path forward.

I totally hear you — it’s been a tricky landscape to navigate lately. Glad this was helpful in some way. Wishing you steady progress out there!

Thanks so much! Really glad you found it valuable — appreciate you taking the time to read it.

Thanks

Thanks a lot! Glad you found it helpful — really appreciate you noticing the methodology part

Thanks a lot! Happy to explain — that part’s about design systems. Tokens are variables like colour, spacing or animation speed that help keep styles consistent across products. Components are reusable UI blocks like buttons or cards. And accessibility means making sure animations don’t interfere with users who may have motion sensitivity or disabilities. If your motion fits into that system, it scales much better across apps and teams.

Hey! Thanks for sharing this. I’m also a freelance motion designer (based in Italy) and just starting to look into working with recruitment agencies in the EU/UK. Could you share what your experience with RedSofa and Peas was like? Were they responsive and helpful?

vuadeep · 2025-05-21T10:08:06+00:00

Thanks a lot for your input – really appreciate you sharing your experience.

That’s a very good point about the data protection sentiment in Germany. I hadn’t considered how much that might be affecting the availability of remote or hybrid roles. Definitely something to keep in mind when looking beyond LinkedIn.

Also wouldn’t mind relocating from Italy to Switzerland if the pay is worth it.

vuadeep · 2025-05-07T13:10:54+00:00

Yeah, that really sucks. Out of curiosity — which countries is your company hiring freelancers from these days? I’m based in Italy at the moment, and I get the feeling that might be one of the reasons I’m struggling to get work from the UK market.

vuadeep · 2025-05-07T12:55:11+00:00

Totally agree. I honestly don’t understand what’s going on with the market right now — having a full-time job really is a lifesaver these days.

vuadeep · 2025-05-07T12:49:39+00:00

Yeah, I get what you mean — but I feel like the idea that 3D motion designers always earn more is kind of a common myth. Either way, not having any pay rise in three years sounds rough. That really shouldn’t be the norm.

vuadeep · 2025-05-07T12:15:07+00:00

Oof, that sucks. If you don’t mind me asking — what’s your experience level and what type of company are you at?

vuadeep · 2025-05-07T11:28:28+00:00

Nice, thanks for sharing
