Thanks, everyone.

I'm going to sit with the designers and the brand team at the client and
make some recommendations, including a tool to switch off transitions and
animations (though this won't affect the YouTube videos they'll have).

I'm also going to start doing some deeper work on motion design to see what
guidance can be given more widely to minimise (hopefully eliminate) the
impact the transitions could have.

Thanks again :)
