There’s probably better tools, but I use Keynote and Figma. With a bit of creativity, simple animation effects like “wipe” and “magic move” can go a long way.

There’s probably better tools, but I use Keynote and Figma. With a bit of creativity, simple animation effects like “wipe” and “magic move” can go a long way.
Figma only does the equivalent of “magic move,” but it’s better than Keynote’s. I’ve used it to make sophisticated animations. See my Yow! presentation “Evolutionary Design Animated” for an example.
Prior to making that presentation, I looked at a variety of 2D animation tools, but they were meant for artistic animation and had so much power and flexibility that Figma was easier and faster.
- evek 5y ago+1 for Figma. Smart animate with proper transition duration and a trigger can do wonders.
- ekrebs 5y agoAnother +1 for Figma. I use a plugin called Motion (https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/889777319208467032 https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/889777319208467032). I've not animated diagrams, but no reason you couldn't. Here's a gif loader I created for my web app with Figma and Motion. https://images.usercontent.bryteagent.com/queue-loader.gif https://images.usercontent.bryteagent.com/queue-loader.gif
- pbowyer 5y agoThanks, I hadn't thought of using Figma for this. That might be enough...
