Brian Collins - Making the familiar, surprising.
Months in Motion is a creative deep dive into the evolving world of motion design, branding, and storytelling. Each episode, we sit down with leading voices from across the design, technology, and creative industries to explore how movement, identity, and innovation are shaping the brands and experiences of tomorrow.
In our first episode, Jimmy sits with Brian Collins, CCO & Co-Founder of COLLINS Design and Transformation agency. During our conversation, Brian talks on the importance of well thought out motion design becoming integral to brand behaviour. How motion design can be elevated through becoming a master of understanding rhythm, timing and playing with people’s expectations. We also discuss Collins work for Disney Freeform and San Francisco Symphony and how their team utilised typographic motion to push boundaries. With it being 2025, we also couldn’t avoid the topic of AI. Brian states the need for designers to become familiar with it, as it’s here to stay and will enable some incredible work to emerge.
