New to rigging. Where to start?


#1

I want to dive into rigging. The only starting point for reference I have are the CG Toolkit book series “The Art of Rigging”. The series appears to be from 2008. Is this a good place to start learning how to rig, or are there newer reference materials I should look at?

Thanks!

An excellent rigging reference is the “Animator Friendly Rigging” series by Jason Schleifer. There are 4 main parts (you can buy them one at a time or bundled), and you go from simple to really advanced. Plenty of examples along the way. Much more than just a step by step.

These dvds do sound pretty decent. Can anyone share some insight if they have watched them before as to how long it took to complete, or how they thought it is useful to the production?
