The details always make the difference ✨.

I’m working on some text animations (these are just examples) for a 3D design agency, and they’ve always told me they like how I animate text in different projects.

I think I still have a lot to learn and several techniques to master. But I’ve always believed that animations should look as close as possible to how things appear in real life.

When you animate, don’t just show the content; try to guide the viewer to the next frame as naturally as possible, to the next key point. The goal is for your animations to feel like a smooth flow—not chaotic—so viewers don’t get tired or lose their way.

What's your style? 🙌

Hey everyone, Emrah here, with one last entry for #ImpossibleUIwithRive in Contra, before we leave for the weekend. Just to mention, everything is done in Rive, to explore my limitations with it, this is also my learning process of the software.

This is the final piece I’m adding to my S·PEN. In this part, I explored a live terrain-like data visualization system, built entirely in 2D but driven by three different real-time data sources. By layering and synchronizing these feeds, the system creates a pseudo-3D surface that reacts dynamically on screen.

To achieve this, I built three separate logic systems to control dot-based animations at different scales, each contributing to depth, motion, and distortion. The result is a constantly evolving surface that feels spatial, alive, and slightly unpredictable.

This addition pushes the project further into what I was aiming for from the start:

"something visually precise, but intentionally difficult to implement"

Between: *multi-layered time-based animations *pseudo-3D anatomical visuals *and this live data terrain system The whole experience leans into controlled chaos. Just wanna also thx to whole Rive community, while I'm still learning the software, they help me to solve my issues and answer my questions when I stucked in technical aspects.
