How to Create Animated Designs in Your Browser
A practical guide to browser-based motion design — keyframes, easing, motion presets and motion paths — using JTDesigner Animation Studio.
Published September 16, 2026 · JTDesigner
Motion design has traditionally meant a dedicated desktop app and a steep learning curve. A browser-based animation editor with a real keyframe timeline changes the entry point, if not the underlying skill.
Keyframes on a real timeline
In JTDesigner's Animation Studio, every element on the canvas gets its own animation track. You set keyframes for position, scale, rotation, opacity, size and color, and the timeline interpolates between them. A dedicated graph editor lets you shape the curve between two keyframes precisely, rather than only picking from a dropdown.
Easing
Built-in easing curves cover linear, ease in/out/in-out, bounce, elastic and more, or you can draw a fully custom cubic-bezier curve for exact control over acceleration and deceleration.
Motion presets
If you don't want to hand-key every animation, Animation Studio includes 67 built-in motion presets across entrance, exit, emphasis, text and image categories. Applying a preset still leaves it fully editable afterward on the timeline — it's a starting point, not a locked black box.
Motion paths
Elements can travel along a defined path — straight, arc, circle, or S-curve — with an option to auto-rotate the element to follow the path's direction as it moves.
Exporting your animation
Export to WebM or MP4 video, an animated GIF, or a PNG image sequence. Free exports up to 720p; 1080p, 2K, 4K and 2× resolution are part of the Pro plan.
Where JTDesigner fits
Animation Studio shares the same canvas and element engine as Design Studio, so a design you've already built can move directly into Animation Studio to be animated, without rebuilding it from scratch.
