Who is Sergey Designer?
Sergey Designer is the brand of Serhii Dovhyi, a Senior Motion Designer & Web Animation Specialist based in Dnipro, Ukraine. He works with SaaS, fintech and startup teams in the US, Europe and Australia.
How much does Lottie animation cost?
A Lottie icon starts at $120, a web animation set at $500, and an onboarding set at $2,000. A 60-second explainer video starts at $1,200. The final quote depends on scope and is agreed before production.
How quickly can you deliver?
A single Lottie icon typically has a first preview in 24–48 hours. A 60-second explainer usually takes around 10 days. Sets, onboarding and complex product animations receive a schedule with the quote. Timing depends on scope and feedback.
Will the animation work in my product?
Deliverables are prepared for the agreed target: Web, iOS or Android. We confirm the player, supported features, file-size budget and integration requirements in the brief. The showroom demonstrates browser playback; native compatibility is checked for your target implementation.
What is included, and how do revisions work?
We agree on creative direction, deliverables, revision rounds, milestones and timeline before production. You review the direction before final delivery. Lottie JSON, source files, video previews and integration support are scoped to the project.
Can I work with you outside Upwork?
Yes. Use the project brief on this website, email sergey@sergeydesigner.pro, or message on Telegram. If your team prefers Upwork, that option is available too.

BEFORE WE START
A clear agreement.
Fewer open questions.
Payment, confidentiality and handoff are discussed in your proposal. Here are the options we can confirm together.
Current time in Dnipro:
How can we arrange payment?
Pay safely via Upwork escrow, Wise, Payoneer or invoice—ask which option is available for your project. Upwork protection is subject to its terms; direct payment methods and a 50/50 or milestone schedule are confirmed in your written proposal before booking.
Can I request an NDA?
Yes—request an NDA before sharing confidential material. We review and agree the terms before exchanging protected project information.
Will I receive source files and usage rights?
Your proposal can include After Effects (.aep), Lottie JSON or .lottie, and SVG source deliverables as appropriate to the production workflow. Full rights to newly commissioned original work can be assigned after final payment under the agreement; third-party assets remain subject to their own licences. Confirm the exact source files and rights in the scope.
How many revision rounds are included?
The fixed-scope sprints include two consolidated revision rounds that refine the approved direction. Other projects specify their revision allowance in the proposal. A new visual direction, additional scenes or extra deliverables are discussed as a scope change before production continues.
What about time zones and communication?
I’m based in Dnipro, Ukraine. Meeting overlap with EU and US East teams is arranged when we agree the schedule. Include your time zone and deadline in the brief so we can plan reviews and response expectations together.
