Welcome to General Motion.

Hi, I’m John Eickholt, an independent motion designer with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in crafting creative motion design and animation solutions for video games, film, TV, live events, exhibits, UI/UX, and other interactive experiences.

My goal is simple: to create clear, resonant visuals that communicate your message, inspire action, and leave a lasting impression.

Born and raised in Minnesota, I embrace it all—lake days, snow days, and everything in between.

clear thinking → vision → planning → momentum → make it real
