AI Avatar: Interactive Character for EdTech Startup

An interactive AI avatar character designed and animated for an EdTech startup. The avatar serves as the face of the platform, responding to user interactions with expressive animations.

I used Midjourney to explore initial character design concepts, then refined the chosen direction in Adobe Illustrator before bringing it to life in Rive. The Rive runtime allows the avatar to react in real-time to user input, creating a more engaging and personal learning experience.

The character needed to feel approachable and intelligent, balancing friendliness with the credibility expected from an educational platform.
