Built with Rive

Rive - AI Robot Mascot Animation

Karina ✨

About

This is a personal passion project born from the simple wish of having a cute AI bot to assist with everyday tasks.
It was created purely for fun as a space to explore animation and interaction possibilities using Rive.
I designed the bot to have a playful, sassy personality so it feels more expressive and less rigid than typical AI assistants.
The interaction includes cursor tracking and a five-prompt menu, where each selection triggers a unique animation and response.

Process

The project began with a rough sketch, which I then developed in Adobe Illustrator.
During this stage, I planned out the prompts, drafted poses and expressions, and organized all artwork layers to be optimized for animation in Rive.
Once imported into Rive, I refined the character further by adding glow effects to enhance lighting and create visual depth beyond flat vectors.
I also added a bottom ring light to make the bot feel more alive.
Throughout the animation process, I continuously tweaked the design and timing to better match the vision in my head.
Each prompt required its own animation, so I made sure that each transitions return smoothly to the idle state for a seamless user experience.
