Lego like app
App
The product
Most people love Legos unless you step on one of them. Focusing on our love of Legos and having as a reference one of the most famous of their movies, “The Lego Movie”, I and some friends started looking into creating something just for fun.
Discovery
We had the main idea for the app from the beginning, but while brainstorming, we found many things to do; some didn’t exist, and some already existed and could be improved.
We didn’t have much time, so we focused our effort on the character creation feature part of the app.
This feature idea already existed and has been researched by others, but we wanted to focus on creating a good UX/UI, animation, and 3D models as close as possible to those in the movie.
UI design
The design is as minimalistic as possible for a character creator, using the primary colors that come to mind when thinking about Legos. The Lego Minifigure is the main character on the screen, so it was essential to have good contrast between the background, the figure, and the UI and not very much going on while building the Minifigure so the user could focus on one animated part at the time of selecting the piece.
Character creation feature
The cherry on the top was the combination of the UI and a neat animation of one of the features working using Cinema 4D, After Effects, and the UI.
The animation style is base on the one we can see in “The Lego Movie”.
