shhLIFE!

Hi,
Is it possible to make available “Integrating a Creature Rig Withing a Production Pipeline” dvd as a separate download… it would be more useful to me…. thanks in advance and thanks for your great DVD’s.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Visited the above link… but its a buy DVD page. couldn’t find any downloadable option. want a downloadable option because the trackable shipping charges is around 100$ (more than twice the charge of DVD) which is high for me from India. Is there any downloadable link…

heya!

ah, I see what you’re saying.. make the integration dvd downloadable as well! right now only the bundle is downloadable.

I can look at doing that.. I would have to find the original disk image, but let me look into it.

Okay, I’ve added a downloadable option for the integrating dvd.. it turns out it’s cheaper for ya, too!

Wow thanks a lot… going to buy it soon… expecting your new DVD’s soon….

Aha…. finally purchased the download and went through it… surely felt that have missed it for a long time… the auto clavical rig solution was one which i was looking for a long time… thanks a lot… any plan for new series.. eagerly waiting for it…

and could you just do a favour in your free time.. the below is a link to a small clip that myself and my colleagues two of them did.. we want your valuable comments to improve our quality… leave a comment or mail me to pjarunpragash@yahoo.com…

Hi, is there a preview or an index of the topics in this DVD? Is it generally rigging or especially characters/humans? Thanks

Hiya simon!
I’ve an example of the documentation for part of it available here:

http://www.lulu.com/items/volume_66/976000/976270/2/preview/integrating_demo.pdf

I’ll see if I can get one for the fast animation rigs, too!

it’s based on characters & humans, but the techniques can be extended to all types of rigging.

Hi Jason,

I couldnt figure out what are exactly the topics of the rigging bundle. This looks like a presentation layout. So i ask you concretely: I want to build a human rig.
1. I want realistic skin deformations so think about using maya muscle on top of normal skin clusters.
2. techniques like locked wrist/foot in world space while the body move (might be not too advanced, but i want to get sure if intermediate stuff is also covered in the topics)
3. User interface for facial expressions
4. Squash and stretch
5. perhaps things like bird wings or similar stuff

Im a noob not a TD and i learn by myself
Thank you very much
