Built For Developers

Most animators stop at motion. I build Rive characters as product systems: states, triggers, inputs, naming, runtime logic, and implementation notes.

State machines

Clean transitions for idle, thinking, loading, success, error, talking, and custom product states.

Triggers & inputs

Named triggers and inputs your developer can connect to product events and app data.

Runtime-ready naming

Predictable names for artboards, states, triggers, inputs, and handoff notes.

Developer handoff notes

Implementation notes for Flutter Rive animation, React Native Rive, and web runtimes.

rive.fireState("thinking");
rive.fireState("success");

rive.setInput("mood", "error");
rive.setInput("isLoading", true);

FAQ

How much does a Rive mascot animation cost?

Rive mascot animation starts from $250 when you provide artwork. If you need a mascot, one custom mascot design is included free with a $650+ package. Advanced projects with 8+ states, triggers, inputs, and interactive logic start from $1,200.

Do you deliver the .riv file?

Yes. You receive the Rive file, organized states, triggers/inputs when needed, and implementation notes for your developer.

Can the mascot react to product data?

Yes. Rive inputs and state machines can be planned so the mascot reacts to loading, success, error, empty, thinking, and other product states.

Can you work with Flutter or React Native?

Yes. I can prepare the Rive file and developer handoff for Flutter Rive animation, React Native Rive, and web runtimes.

Can you add lip sync or viseme mouth shapes?

Yes. Viseme lip-sync setup can be added for talking characters and starts as an add-on in the pricing calculator.
