Oatmeal Dad. He’s enthusiastic, a little chaotic — and when he eats different foods, you can literally see how his body (which is made of oatmeal) reacts. Lingo is a glucose monitor that shows how different foods affect your body (which can be a little hard to explain). Make something technical, feel a bit more human… because honestly, we’ve all been Oatmeal Dad at some point.

Those tiny moments of learning that show up exactly when you need them. We’ve built dozens of hover animations for Adobe to make sure each tool is easy to understand.
