Built 6 expression states for one interactive character in Rive — small shifts in mood and reaction that make a product feel responsive, not robotic.

Each expression is driven by a single parameter in a state machine, so designers can adjust it and developers just plug in a number — no animation logic buried in code.

This is the kind of detail that turns a static UI into something users actually remember.

Available for interactive Rive animation work for SaaS and app products — reach out if you're exploring something similar.

Every interaction on Rime is intentional. The waveform moves with purpose, not decoration. That's the difference between animation and motion design. https://www.rime.ai/
