Apple MOTION NOTES
When delivering album motion artwork, keep these common rejection reasons in mind:
- Typography. Text/title are required to be in the safe area outlined in Apple’s templates.
- Looping Motion Artwork. Full animation sequence must be in a seamless loop.
- Frame Edge. Motion cover art must not have a frame/border.
For full and up-to-date specifications regarding Apple Album Motion asset types, refer to the Apple Music Album Motion Guidelines.

Once Apple Motion asset is created and finalized, please co-ordinate with your UMG Label representative for the delivery of final asset.
