Official Rive expert ⭐️ Looking for someone who knows their way around motion magic? I'm your person! I create unique vector characters (Sketch), Rive character animations, lip-sync, splash screens, logos, buttons, and icons - basically, all the eye candy your project needs. (Psst... wanna know a secret? Almost any UI element can be animated - and yes, I can do that too). I'm also diving into the latest Rive Data Binding features: super cool stuff. Oh, and if you need a full UI design for your mobile app or game, I'm all in (using Sketch, of course). Let’s make something awesome together! So, I am available to assist you by providing: ・Unique vector characters created from scratch ・2D animations for games, applications, and websites (Rive app) ・Interactive fully controlled mascot animation ・Talking characters with full lip-sync ・Interactive Icons and Buttons animation ・Customisable character's animation ・Logo creation, redesign, and animation ・Splash screen animation ・Onboarding animation ・Advertisement animation ・Short animated movies for YouTube ・UI/UX design for games and apps ・Redesign of existing UI, awarding it a modern look ・Control of UI design implementation and communication with developers Usually, I start my work with a paper sketch, and once approved, I create a vector picture of the character within the Sketch app. After that (if necessary), I create for my characters a set of facial expressions and body positions that helps a lot to animate them. The deliveries at this step will include original vector images (usually SVG) and, if necessary, any raster formats such as png or jpeg. Next, I import a vector image to the Rive app to animate it. I create animations of any complexity in Rive: from simple idle animations of icons and loaders to complex ones, including walking cycles and whole scene animation. In my work, I use the full range of features provided by Rive: bones, constraints, state machine, data binding. Also, I can make the animations fully interactive by using Rive listeners. The Rive app is something like SVG animation but more advanced and friendlier. It's easy to integrate Rive animations into Flutter mobile applications, iOS, Android, React Native, Web, React, Vue, and Angular. The Rive app native format is .riv, an animated vector image file, which can be integrated into the app or game using Rive's free runtimes. I can also export to animated gifs, .webM, .mov, .mp4, or other desired formats, so my animations can be used everywhere: websites, videos, games, and apps. It is also possible to animate your existing vector artwork if you have it. In case you have a raster image, I also offer a service of manual vectorisation and animation. I show some of my works in Upwork Portfolio, and here are just a few examples of mobile games I've created UI design, app icons, and promotional materials for: Solitaire Classic Klondike from IGC Mobile - 10,000,000+ (Google Play store statistics) FreeCell Solitaire from IGC Mobile - 1,000,000+ installs Hearts Deluxe from IGC Mobile - 100,000+ installs Spider Solitaire from IGC Mobile - 10,000+ installs I'm responsible for my work and try to achieve the best result. I follow modern design trends and also study the art of famous artists and animators from Disney and DreamWorks studios, draw sketches, and create watercolour and oil paintings.

At A Glance: 2D Designers
A great deal of focus today is put on the cutting edge of design, with 3D designs and 3D printers bringing everything to life in multiple dimensions. But this doesn’t mean that the world of 2D designs is dead, because there is still a huge demand and use for these simpler, easier-to-work-with design styles. Think about blueprints and maps, for starters, as well as schematic diagrams and even simple pictures. 2D still has a valuable place in the design field, and when you want the best quality and most effective 2D creations, hire freelance 2D designers such as those found on Upwork to create the image for you.
2D design programs are generally less complicated than some computer-aided design programs, but this doesn’t mean that anyone without training and experience can get the best out of them. One level where 2D is very popular is in comprehensive schools where there is great demand for this type of design. Used in presentations, drawing sheets, graphic presentations, and more, these 2D visuals are easy for children to grasp and aren’t too complex that the core of the lesson is spent trying to understand what they are seeing rather than what it represents. Many graphic designs use 2D programs for a number of applications, such as bitmap images, font characters, and image textures or patterns. All of these projects and many more are best handled by an expert who can work with the software and create the perfect 2D designs regardless of what they are needed for.
