The brief

one app, four shapes.

Stop motion on a phone that folds. The camera half stands, the flat half takes the hands, and nothing you touch while shooting sits on the half that moves. Every screen also had to work on a plain iPhone.

Four flows

from first frame to film.

The icon

The clay ball.

The mascot from the onboarding pictures, redrawn in vectors: the ball mid-hop with two onion-skin ghosts behind it. Built in layers for Icon Composer, with a tinted version that keeps the ghosts.
