Stories in Motion

We started with a simple belief: motion graphics should tell stories that matter. Six years later, we're still teaching students in Taiwan how pixels become poetry and timelines turn into narratives.

2019

The Beginning

Started in a small studio in Keelung with three computers and endless curiosity about what makes animation feel alive. Our first students were local artists who wanted to add movement to their work.

Finding Our Voice

Developed our signature teaching approach: start with story, then build the technical skills. Students began creating work that wasn't just polished—it had personality and purpose.

2023

Growing Impact

Expanded to serve Taiwan's growing creative industry. Our graduates started landing positions at animation studios, advertising agencies, and launching their own creative ventures.

What's Next

Building on six years of teaching experience, we're launching advanced programs that blend traditional animation principles with emerging technologies and interactive storytelling.

How We Actually Teach

Most programs start with software tutorials. We start with why your animation should exist in the first place. Technical skills follow naturally when students understand the story they're trying to tell.

  • Story-first approach means every project begins with narrative purpose before opening After Effects
  • Small cohorts allow personalized feedback on individual creative development
  • Real client projects provide authentic experience with deadlines and revisions
  • Portfolio development focuses on work that demonstrates both technical skill and creative vision

What We Actually Do

Six years of teaching motion graphics has taught us what works and what doesn't. Here's what makes our approach different.

Animation Fundamentals

Timing, spacing, and the principles that make movement feel natural. We spend weeks on basics because everything else builds from here. Students learn why twelve frames per second feels different from twenty-four.

Visual Storytelling

Every animation tells a story, even a logo reveal. We teach students to think like directors: What emotion should this evoke? What should the audience understand? How does motion serve the message?

Industry Integration

Taiwan's creative industry has specific needs and workflows. Our curriculum reflects real agency environments, client expectations, and the kind of work that actually gets produced locally.

Creative Development

Technical skills are just tools. We focus on developing each student's creative voice and helping them understand what kind of motion graphics work excites them most.

The People Behind CastNeuron

We believe great motion graphics education comes from instructors who are still actively creating. Our team splits time between teaching and professional projects, keeping curriculum current with industry practice.
