Tools — Figma, After Effects

Synopsis — An exploration of user interface and interaction micro-animations through a vibrantly glowing DJ setup.

full layout

wobbl is an (imaginary) immersive, digital experience for DJs, music enthusiasts, and remixers of all ages and skill levels. This page is a compilation of all micro-animations in the design.

There are three sections:

Each section demonstrates functionality in (somewhat crunchy, sorry) animated GIFs. For a closer, crisper look at the designs and process, you can view the process deck here.

buttons & toggles

sliders & multimodes

radio-ish buttons, checkboxes, & toolbar

radio button gif

These "radio-ish" buttons serve as an active-vs-queued system: one current song, and one queued song.

Click once to queue (and it will start immediately if no current song; otherwise it will start playing after the current song finishes). Click another to replace the queued song. Click a queued song a second time to start playing immediately.

checkboxes gif

In this context, checkboxes function as saving tracks to—or removing tracks from—the liked songs (hearted) tab. Swipe right to add; swipe right again to remove.

Because this is a hidden animation triggered by a gesture on a frequently interacted-with component, there are no visual queues (and will instead be discovered through something like a tips dialogue).

toolbar gif

The user can easily find songs by selecting a different genre tab on the toolbar. There is also a tab for the liked songs, as implemented in checkboxes.
