About Us
If you’re building a product that needs motion that’s not just pretty , but functional, lightweight, and developer-friendly , you’re in the right place. I design Rive animations that fit into your product, not just on top of it. Whether you need quick micro-interactions, complex onboarding flows, or animated UI states that respond to users in real time, I can help you bring your ideas to life — without bloated assets or complicated handoffs.
My Rive Animation Process
⚡️ Plan – Laying the Groundwork
Every great animation starts with a solid plan. We’ll go over your budget, timeline, and project scope to make sure everything feels right from the start. Motion design takes time and care, so planning helps avoid surprises and ensures we create something you’re proud of.
This is a collaborative process — I want to hear your ideas, and I’ll share mine. Whether you’re a developer, designer, or founder, we’ll shape the right approach together. Already have a mood board or brand assets? Perfect. If not, I’ll help you set the creative direction before we animate anything.
What’s included:
- Timeline & budget discussion
- Animation concept consultation
- Mood board & motion direction setup
- Review of visual assets or help preparing them
✍️ ✍️ Animate – Bringing Ideas to Life
Using Rive’s editor, I create animations that truly feel alive — from small UI interactions to full-screen transitions. As a Rive animator and Rive expert, I handle everything: state machine logic, vector animation, and .riv file creation that’s lightweight, scalable, and ready for your app or website.
Don’t have visuals yet? I can help design them. Once the look is locked in, I’ll share playable previews so you can test the motion and give feedback before we finalize.
What’s included:
- Looping, triggers, and event logic
- Clean riv file creation
- Custom vector animation or imported assets
- State machine & transitions setup
- Preview demos for feedback
🚀 Deliver
Once you approve, I’ll prepare your animations for launch. Whether your team uses React, Flutter, iOS, or plain HTML, I’ll make sure the Rive animations fit seamlessly. You’ll get clean, final .riv files, and if needed, I can assist with runtime integration or even implement it myself.
I don’t just hand off files and disappear — I offer follow-up support for tweaks, edits, and updates. Think of me as your Rive animator and partner in motion, here to keep your product’s animations looking sharp.
What’s included:
- Revisions & polish
- Final riv export
- Developer-ready setup
- Integration support or direct help
- Friendly post-launch support
