Gaming & Entertainment Animation Principles
Apply Disney's 12 principles to create immersive, exciting experiences that maximize engagement and emotional impact.
The 12 Principles Applied

- Loot Boxes: Dramatic build-up before reveal
- Level Start: Countdown with escalating energy
3. Staging
- Hero Content: Full-bleed featured media
- Now Playing: Center stage with ambient effects
- Notifications: Attention-grabbing without blocking content
4. Straight Ahead & Pose to Pose
- Gameplay: Fluid continuous animation (straight ahead)
- Menu Navigation: Snappy defined states (pose to pose)
- Cutscenes: Choreographed sequences
5. Follow Through & Overlapping Action

- Loading Screens: Engaging animated loops
7. Arc
- Particle Effects: Natural curved trajectories
- Swipe Gestures: Smooth arcing card movements
- Projectiles: Physics-based arc paths
8. Secondary Action
- Background Animations: Ambient movement always present
- Achievement Pop: Sparkles while badge animates
- Score Update: Effects while numbers climb
9. Timing
- Fast & Responsive: 100-200ms for game feel
- Dramatic Moments: Slow to 500-800ms for impact
- UI Feedback: Instant 50-100ms responses
10. Exaggeration

Industry Timing Standards
| Action | Duration | Easing |
