Magic Animator Skill
Magic Animator enables designers to add life to static designs in seconds using AI-driven motion, transforming flat UX into premium, dynamic experiences.
Context
This skill is essential for improving UX and engagement through high-quality motion. It works best for animating brand assets, interface elements, and micro-interactions.
When to Use
Trigger this skill when:
Adding life to a static logo or brand mark to make it memorable.
Enhancing website/app UI with loaders, animated widgets, or smooth transitions.
Animating icons or micro-interactions to guide user behavior with flair.
Execution Workflow
Select Asset: Identify the static design element (SVG, PNG, or Figma layer) to animate.
Choose Preset/Category: Select the appropriate domain (Logos, UI, Icons, Social Media) to ensure the motion curves match the context.
Animate: Use the AI Animation Assistant via chat-based prompts to request specific, premium motion (e.g., "Make it feel like a high-end luxury brand reveal" or "Give it a kinetic, elastic pop").
Refine: If available, edit keyframes for further polish, ensuring easing curves feel natural and high-end.
Export & Integrate: Export the final animation as Lottie (JSON) for web/mobile performance, or GIF/MP4 for social.
Strict Rules
Use only when motion serves the requested product and chosen tools; respect existing design conventions and reduced-motion preferences. Do not force hosted generation, effects or new packages.
Purposeful Motion: Every animation must feel deliberate and premium. Avoid chaotic or overly fast motion that distracts from the core UX.
Format Discipline: Choose a supported format based on measured size, renderer compatibility and accessibility; Lottie is not always smaller or fully compatible.
Example
User request:
Add life to a static logo or brand mark to make it memorable.
Limitations
Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
Verify current product/tool/export availability, asset licenses and provider data/cost authorization. Inspect generated SVG/Lottie content, bound asset size, and test fallback, keyboard interaction and reduced motion. An animation service is not bundled here and output quality is not guaranteed by the guide.
