I am super excited to announce that The Motion Awards 2021 is officially OPEN for submissions, celebrating the biggest achievements in Motion Design from 2020.

WHY SHOULD YOU SUBMIT

For us, By us

There’s no better reward for your hard work than recognition from your peers. The Motion Awards by Motionographer is the only awards show that celebrates the full breadth of Motion Design. We are joined by the most diverse group of thought leaders, creators, and Motion Designers, from across the world, to weigh in on a broad range of categories.

Only Big Returns

Become part of Motion Design history. Winners will be added to the permanent online archive of The Motion Awards and Motionographer. Winners will also get invited to become a part of the prestigious group of judges for next year’s Motion Awards.

For The Greater Good

Just by entering, you’re fueling the future. Proceeds from The Motion Awards will go back into Motionographer and The Motion Awards, funding the development of new content, tools, and resources for the Motion Design community at large.

Distinct and Inclusive

Just being nominated for a Motion Award is a feat worthy of a grandiose celebration. Winning, an epic one. We have over 200 judges from countries worldwide that represent the upper echelon of talent in design, animation, and visual storytelling.
