Animated logo maker

Give your logo a launch, a pulse and a personality.

Upload your logo mark. You get a launch intro that ends on your resting logo, a calm idle loop and reactions for success, loading and attention — as a Rive file for your site and app, transparent video for overlays, MP4 for socials and GIF for email signatures.

Loops

Play once

This is the actual .riv our engine delivers, playing in your browser — the same state machine you drive from your app with one number input and a trigger per one-shot.

Can AI animate my logo without changing its design?

Yes, if the tool rigs your logo rather than regenerating it. Rig-based tools move your own pixels or traced shapes, so the design stays identical; generative video models redraw every frame and can alter details. Charmotion uses AI only to find the logo's parts, then animates your exact artwork.

How to Animate a Logo From a PNG or AI Image

One logo, every placement

Where	Use	File
Website header and hero	launch once, then idle	.riv or transparent WebM
App launch	LaunchStateMachine	.riv, or HEVC-alpha MOV on iOS
Loading and success states	loading, success	.riv triggers
Email signature	wave or happy	GIF
Social posts, Stories, Reels	launch, happy	MP4, 9:16 MP4
Keynote and video edits	any	transparent MOV

Which logos animate best

Logo marks and characters

Symbols, emblems, app icons and logos with a face animate fully. Nova, the blob in the demo above, started as a flat logo mark. 3D and gradient logos keep their exact pixels in Motion mode.

Wordmarks

A text-only logo gets the same motion — bounce, tilt, launch — but no character acting, and letters are not animated one by one. For a kinetic typography reveal, a motion designer is the better route; see our guide on animating a logo from a PNG.

pip.riv · 40 KB

CharacterStateMachine: number input mood
0–9: idle, happy, wave, thinking, sad, loading, listening, talking, sleeping, attention
triggers: success · error · yes · no · enter · exit
LaunchStateMachine: launch → idle, plays once

Rive state machine Studio

One tiny vector file instead of 17 videos. It’s what powers the demo at the top of this page.

import { useRive, useStateMachineInput } from "@rive-app/react-canvas";

export function Pip({ mood = 0 }) {
  const { rive, RiveComponent } = useRive({
    src: "/pip.riv",
    stateMachine: "CharacterStateMachine",
    autoplay: true,
  });
  const input = useStateMachineInput(rive, "CharacterStateMachine", "mood");
  if (input) input.value = mood; // 0 idle · 1 happy · 2 wave · 3 thinking · 4 sad · 5 loading …
  return <RiveComponent style={{ width: 320, height: 320 }} />;
}

Paste-ready code Studio

Pick the formats you need.

For a site header or app launch you want the .riv or transparent WebM — that's Studio ($29/month). Starter ($4.99/month) gives MP4, GIF and the 9:16 video for socials and email. Prices in USD; tax is calculated at checkout by Polar.
