Animation Principles for Beginners

Core Animation Principles

• Timing - controls the speed of actions
• Easing - makes movement feel natural
• Anticipation - prepares viewers for action

Getting Started

Start simple with basic shapes and movements. Master the fundamentals before attempting complex animations.

/* CSS Animation Example */
.bounce {
  animation: bounce 2s infinite;
}

@keyframes bounce {
  0%, 100% { transform: translateY(0); }
  50% { transform: translateY(-20px); }
}
