- Stay updated on the latest AI visual tools and trends for continuous creative improvement.
- Motion Graphics & Animation:
- Design and animate custom motion graphics (titles, infographics, transitions, etc.) to visualize complex ideas or data.
- Use tools like Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar to create visually engaging motion sequences.
- Ensure animations are smooth, modern, and aligned with the channel’s branding.
