Hero Motion Engagement Test

Exploring how animation could transform static hero images into engaging, compelling experiences.

About the project

Planned and storyboarded animated hero section concepts to test whether motion could improve user engagement. Led the design strategy from concept development through storyboarding and motion planning, and coordinated with cross-functional teams to execute and validate the approach.

Skills

Cross-collaboration
