Wood Box tutorial

Description Tutorial

 

Key concepts we'll be working on today :

 

I’ll show you and give access to a script which will do for you the first step of the hierarchy for a production rig.

Then, we'll place all the elements needed to rig the different parts of the box, enable the color code of the different controls.

Show how to have a mirror behavior on some controles, then lock all what need tobe lock.

At the end, we'll finalize the rigging process by creating a set containing all the animation controls and lock the model and joints so we will only have access to the controls (for animation).

This is not a too hard one with the next following we will upgrade slowly to some more complex props rig step by step but do not hesitate to share a comment on subject you would like to see or work on.

 

Today we're going to rig a little box.
