Digital Tutors - Character Rigging for Production in Maya 2011 English | VP6F 782x646 | MP3 96 Kbps | 2.86 GB Genre: eLearning
In this course, we will cover tools and techniques for setting up character rigs in Maya.
Step by step, we'll construct a control rig that is robust and animator-friendly. We'll learn everything from proper joint placement and techniques for correcting a joint's orientation to learning fun ways we can preserve volume as our mesh deforms and how to make our controls efficient and easy to comprehend. We'll also learn how to build some fun MEL tools that will help speed up our workflow, bringing that time back into constructing our control rigs with the best methods.
