Toova, Rigged for you to pose to Perfection.
I have always wanted to create a Live character that I can pose in real time. Rive has given me the ability to explore this.
This is my Submission to the Rive character challenge. Unfortunately, I joined quite late in 3days, but I am really happy I pushed beyond my capabilities, especially figuring out how I could move the whole character while still maintaining its interaction, like walking.
When the character is walking, you can interfere and move the legs and body, and it doesn't stop the character from walking, and when you achieve the same pose, the walk cycle looks true.
With this same idea, i was able to build the mouth rigs and have the character talk while still maintaining it mouth poses.
i will still go ahead to refine this character even further and make it more blast.

Wow, congratulations on your latest milestone, more to come! 🚀 Cranking out a fully rig-to-pose live character build in just 3 days for the challenge is wild. The responsiveness and fluid control map perfectly.
Thanks for your kind words. 3 days was too short really. But my end goal was met. I was not focused on the character design as it was not part of the points to win this challenge but the interaction which Is live.

Hi everyone! 👋
I built a Men's Single Sculls Live Score Concept for the @Rive × @Contra Broadcast & Livestream Challenge.
The idea was inspired by the atmosphere of the FIFA World Cup and the energy of Norwegian rowing fans cheering their athletes down the course. I wanted to bring that same excitement into a live broadcast experience for rowing.
Built with Rive Scripting, Data Binding, and nested View Models, the interface reacts instantly to live race data without manual animation.
Would love to hear what you think! 🚣👇
Lovely! 👏🏼
Got an Honorable Mention in the Rive x Contra Interactive Character Challenge 😍
Not sure how Bob feels about this, but I'm so happy to have been part of it and grateful for all the love from the community. Huge thanks to the Rive and Contra teams, and congrats to everyone who submitted, the bar was seriously high.
Already looking forward to the next character challenge to justify my need to keep producing silly content 😂

Congrats Manu! Bob was really a great kind of submisson!
Yo! I recreated a Duolingo-inspired animation in Rive, and it turned out to be one of my most challenging projects so far
I rebuilt the scene from scratch, refined the character movement and timing, and added interactivity using Rive’s tools. There was a lot of experimenting and rebuilding along the way, but I learned a lot and I’m genuinely proud of the final result
I’m available for new Rive projects feel free to reach out on any convenient platform
Would love to hear what you think!
