I went back in tv history to one of the most Iconic broadcast experiences The RCA Indian Head Test Pattern to bring it to the future with Interactive Design using rive ,for the #rivebroadcastchallenge

The Indian Head rigged and animated using rives mesh feature for micro animation of waving feathers

The test markers vectorized and animated with trims dashes and reveals using clips.

Converted a base vector trace to organized vectors then animated for use as an intro reel, tv hold, stream starting soon or end card, stinger, everyone's favorite gag: technical difficulties , among so many other use cases.

It was easier and faster in rive to animate this version than what it took to organize the vectors (sharpen an axe and all that IYKYK.) Re-creation, cleanup and organization was the heavy part to create a foundation for all future iterations using almost 100 groups organizing 400 paths ( mainly to have versions that are fills and versions that are custom strokes)

Filled shapes had to be cleaned up into only strokes With a difficulty being getting the centerline of a shape in vector software like Inkscape isn't a thing apparently, so it's manual work before the fun begins.

After that it becomes simple to take advantage of rives effect groups letting you apply specific trim effects to groups of different shapes. Then stack most in state machine layers with a BlendState instead of one single massive timeline to manage all the greebles in a FUI like design.
