The Motion Design industry is incredibly inspiring. For me, it's the best of the best - fantastic design paired with motion and pacing that brings it to life. This resource is really for me, but I thought I'd share it on here so other's can see it too. Looking for motion inspiration? Forget Insta, go direct to the agencies sites (they often have great websites too)
