Life at Kaviyan

34 people in nine countries, one shared timeline.
Shoreditch studio, London
01The role

As Senior Motion Designer at Kaviyan Studio you will lead motion on two or three engagements at a time, working remotely from Europe. You turn brand identities into systems of blocks that whole teams reuse, then prove the rules in real edits.

Your first three months

Demand for Motion Systems doubled this year. In your first quarter you will take over two engagements from Victor Lim, run Discover with each brand team and hand over a first block library.

Who you work with

Each engagement has a producer, an engineer, a fixed scope and a Friday review. Flow, our motion agent, handles routine titles, so your time goes into the system.

  • Define principles, easing curves and timing for each motion system
  • Design and build blocks for type, logo, transitions and lower thirds
  • Brief Flow, the motion agent, so it applies each system on its own
