Rigging

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

Nothing interesting to report today, but I decided I would anyhow (sorry).

I spent a few hours watching some videos on basic rigging (in Maya), even though I’m not really ready for that yet. Tutor jsut thought it would be good to get my mind off of modeling for a short time as it is causing me so many headaches.

While I will probably have to watch the videos again before I actually try anything serious, it was interesting, and a break from my dino, which looks like a hippo. What did I pick up? Well there is a lot to it, if the bones are straight IK won’t know which way to go, and natuarally they aren’t real bones, so don’t put them all in. I suspect it will come a lot more clearer when I finish the videos and maybe give it a quick try.
