UI Micro interactions & Motion Design (created with Rive)

One question I’m often asked is: “Why does your portfolio primarily feature character animation? Where are the UI microinteractions?”

The answer is simple: I create those too and I love bringing interfaces to life. For example, while working on https://www.igdetective.com/, I designed and implemented multiple Rive animated user-analysis flows. Rather than presenting users with a static loading screen, I transformed the analysis process into a dynamic visual experience that keeps users engaged while providing meaningful feedback. These animations combine:

Dynamic icon animations

Rich background visual effects

Smooth state transitions

ViewModel-driven logic

Data Binding integration for reactive, data-aware experiences

The result is a set of polished micro interactions that transform awaiting screen into a compelling, visually engaging experience while clearly communicating system activity and progress to the user. For me, effective UI animation is more than visual polish. It's storytelling, feedback, and user experience working together. As usual, I use Sketch to create vector graphics.
