Motion Designer Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’m applying for [Company Name] because I’ve found the kind of motion work you publish aligns with how I approach storytelling through visuals. In my last role, I led a sequence that used a tight 6-week timeline to develop 3 animated explainers, finishing with clean, camera-ready files and a compact package for social and long-form content. The project ended up reaching a wider audience than we expected and I knew we hit the right tone when a reviewer asked if we could apply the same approach to another campaign. I’m comfortable across After Effects, Cinema 4D, and Premiere, with a focus on clean pipelines and reusable templates. I work well with editors and sound designers, translating briefs into motion that supports narrative without getting in the way. I’ve built and maintained motion libraries, implemented colour workflows, and kept file organisation tight so teams can iterate quickly. One memorable job involved a product launch where I coordinated with a small team to visualise complex data into a narrative sequence. We used a modular approach to switch out product variants and update visuals with minimal re-editing. The result was a smooth delivery across social, web, and broadcast, and the client noted that the visuals significantly improved user comprehension and engagement. I’m available to chat and can bring a practical, steady presence to your studio. If you’d like, we can schedule a time to discuss how my workflow and design sensibilities could fit at [Company Name]. Kind regards, [Your Name]
