MOVEMENT MEETS MEANING
Hi, I'm Omer a motion designer at Google Waze
I create clear, engaging designs that combine motion and functionality to enhance user experiences and deliver better results.

Driving Smarter with Waze InSight
Waze InSight is the new alerts experience built to show exactly what matters on the road. It provides drivers with a clear view of what’s ahead, how long an event lasts, and when it ends. By reducing unnecessary alerts on familiar routes and delivering more clarity when the route is new, InSight balances focus with awareness. Drivers also get a bigger picture by seeing multiple alerts at once — creating a safer, more intuitive, and distraction-free driving experience.
From Concept to
Final Animation
I led the creative development of the Waze InSight launch video — from shaping the initial concept to designing the storyboard and bringing it to life through motion. I collaborated closely with product and marketing teams to ensure the story aligned with the feature’s value, and worked with the motion design team to craft the final animation.
Thanks for watching
Raycast Motion Concept
I was really inspired by Raycast’s clean visual language, so I decided to create my own
motion concept based on their interface.
This personal project was a way for me to explore how animation can enhance clarity, guide attention, and bring a familiar product to life through movement —while translating it into my own motion style and developing a more intentional approach.

Veo 3 Porsche
Commercial Concept
I’ve always been inspired by Porsche’s dramatic commercial aesthetic, so I created a personal cinematic concept for the 911 using Google’s Veo 3 focusing on full control over lighting, angles, and the overall visual atmosphere.
This personal project was my way of crafting a sequence of high-end, advertising-style shots: dramatic studio lighting, clean silhouettes, and controlled camera moves that highlight the car’s form without unnecessary flashiness — shaping everything into a cohesive, cinematic commercial flow.

Hi, I’m Omer. I’m a motion designer at Waze.
I focus on creating clear and functional animations that help products feel simple, friendly, and intuitive.
I come from a background in visual design, and along the way I fell in love with the world of motion. These days I get to combine both worlds and work closely with different teams to bring ideas to life in
a way that supports the product and adds a bit of magic. I’m constantly growing, enjoying the journey, and always aiming to make complex ideas
feel simple and accessible.
