Apple Motion is a motion graphics and compositing application developed exclusively for macOS. It is designed to work hand‑in‑hand with Apple’s professional video editing software, Final Cut Pro. With Motion, you can design animated titles, build custom transitions, apply visual effects, and create dynamic 2D and 3D animations that can be used directly within Final Cut Pro projects.
Instead of manually setting keyframes for every movement, Motion provides over 230 "behaviors." These are pre-made animations that can be applied to text, objects, or particles to simulate natural motion, such as gravity, orbit, or throw. This is a massive time-saver for creators who need complex animation without complex manual rigging.
