LottieFiles' motion design skill encodes when and how to animate: functional feedback timing, brand motion identity, Disney animation principles for storytelling, and the 1/3 rule for choreographing multi-element scenes. The decision tree routes each request to the right animation discipline instead of defaulting to decorative motion.
