Rive-ready scenario plan for an interactive car animation

A demo built for a specific brief. Not client work: the material shown is sample data, so what is on display is the mechanism.

I built a Rive-ready scenario plan for a placeholder car animation, with a browser mock that drives it. A 384-frame, 16 s source at 24 fps is planned as 9 named timelines that tile it with 0 gaps and 0 overlaps. All 12 transitions are measured from the car's own path: 9 join with no jump in position or heading, and 3 restarts are declared 12-frame cross-fades. A breadth-first pass proves all 3 outcomes reachable over 5 routes with 0 dead ends, and a 7-input by 9-timeline validity matrix and 3 host events are exported as one contract for app and web. In the mock a drawn car drives the same graph: it holds at each decision, branches on the inputs, skids when the rain input is on, cross-fades on every restart and reports each event as it plays; an auto tour drives all 5 routes, and one full drive is rendered to an 18.8 s MP4. No Rive file is included: the Rive file is built in the Rive editor from the client's MP4, to these same names.

A car clip planned as 9 timelines, 12 measured transitions, 7 inputs and 3 reachable outcomes, with a browser mock where a drawn car drives, branches and cross-fades, and a developer contract for app and web. Rive-ready plan; no Rive file included.
