When I started freelancing in 2015, I was frustrated by the lack of resources for freelance motion designers around the business side.
No one spoke about what they charged.
Motion designers had no specific advice on how to get and retain clients effectively.
With my team at Motion Hatch we create tools I wish I had when I started freelancing.
My mission is to make it easy to run your motion design business so you can create a sustainable business and work on fun and creative projects.
Motion Hatch is an online school for freelance motion graphic designers and animators. We offer courses, resources, a community forum and a bi-weekly podcast and a YouTube channel discussing the ins and outs of the business side of motion design.
