SAN FRANCISCO - eTradeWire -- Tangens today announced the launch of ShortMotion, a mobile‑first motion graphics app designed to strip away the complexity of traditional animation tools and make professional‑looking motion graphics accessible to everyone.

For decades, Adobe After Effects has been the industry standard for motion graphics, powering everything from intros and logo animations to product reels and transitions. But for beginners and small businesses, the steep learning curve, keyframing, masking, timelines, rotoscoping, has kept motion graphics out of reach.

ShortMotion solves this problem by rethinking the workflow from the ground up:

• Mobile‑first design: Built for iPhone, with Android on the way, ensuring accessibility for the widest audience.
• Simplified timeline: One timeline per selected element, eliminating clutter and confusion.
• Block‑based animations: Drag‑and‑drop modules that can be resized, stacked, and moved like LEGO pieces.
• Preset animations: Curated options that remove the need for complex keyframes or graphs.
• Native performance: Developed with Swift, UIKit, and SceneKit for seamless Apple integration.

"Motion graphics shouldn't require years of training," said Amritpal Sandhu, founder of Tangens. "With ShortMotion, we've taken the power of After Effects and made it radically easier, so anyone can become a motion designer."
