I'm Val Head, and I'll be leading you through this course on CSS animation. As a designer and animation consultant, I help my clients make web animation work for them and get their brand in motion in a meaningful way. I'm the author of The Pocket Guide to CSS Animation and co-host of the Motion and Meaning Podcast.
I'm excited to introduce you to the world of CSS animation. This course is for web designers and developers who have some experience with CSS and want to take their understanding of CSS animation to the next level. This course is designed as a comprehensive look at how to animate with CSS and which common web design tasks CSS animation is best for.
