❤❤❤❤❤

I miss your videos my friend. A big hug!

very useful

man after 10 years

Still useful 12 years later!

Even though this tutorial was done 9 years ago, the process still works! I am using an old version of Maya (2017). The one thing I’ve found is that whatever mesh you decide to rebind to the skeleton and then import the weight maps, make sure that the mesh has the same name as the mesh that was used when the weights were exported. Otherwise, the old weights maps won’t “attach”.

Talk me bro

Bt kro

10 years later this tutorial is saving my life rigging a shark in game dev class :) thanks so much!

The best animations are always the quickest and most efficient ones. Godsent tutorial for my first ever chracter idle animation in job.

hey dude, where is your UV mapping Video. That was the best video tutorial I ever saw in my life. Cant seem to find it now.

Are you Daniel Zeni from gnome? Zbrush master?

That is an excellent rig.

This is unbelievably helpful. Thank you so much!

damn nine years and this video is till very much helpful.... you're the best 👍👍👍👍

I really like your video and you have a cool personality. I think it's pronounced twinning - like twins. 😊😊

So you animate the hips first, then add the constraints?

Damn. Alvin really going all-out on this guy.

Dude, I almost want to punch my monitor hearing you say group and locator so much. We get the point. Say it once.

Tnx

Fantastic tut! Thanks!

Even in my class they never thought us like you.

edutainment stonks

please tell me what if the hands are animated first to grab the box, move and then drop the box. how would the constraints be in that case?

Just starting Maya today, after 5 hours trying to figure this out, you saved me 🥲

Hi. A few years ago, you posted a video on your channel which showed your full workflow. It included acting and was set to an audio clip that included something like "I work with the customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills. I am good at dealing with people..." It seems that you have set this video to private. I used this clip in my teaching every year because it is an excellent example of all of the stages in an animation workflow. Would it be possible to make this video public again, or even just set it to unlisted so I could still get to it? Many thanks - Shane

Hey man i knew it bro. I watched you when you made your first freaking video on modeling??? If you go back to your first video and on the top comments i made a comment 7/8 years ago holy moly. It's a shame that i was never consistent. At the time I was 14 :) Time flies quick

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Man, i love your style of teaching, such an engaging way to learn please keep at it :) Love your sense of humour as well :)

I feel 10x more confident in soft soft, thanks!

Hi David, happy to Watch your new tutorial. Patrick, from africa, Cameroon

Hey cool video! I love your videos, i wish we could see more frequent uploads, you are a great teacher, keep it up! :D

I'd like to thank you for teaching me the basics of 3D animation and Maya. Unfortunately, due to all the data collection, privacy issues, frequent crashes, and things like autodesk genuine service (basically malware I can't uninstall even after uninstalling autodesk products), I'm friggin done with subscription software. I've since switched over to Linux, and have been learning the ropes around Blender and Gimp, instead of Maya and Photoshop. I'll still watch your videos though ;)

She looks like Olivia Wilde. Btw how that lip zipper motion works? blendshapes or rig based?

thanks , very helpful ❤❤

Super excellent video..

Hello, I'm trying to get the facial rigging course page but can't find it.

Great video!!! Just wanted to ask would this method be great for a skateboard animation? Would I just have to add locators to each foot?

Windows > Playblast In the Animation menu set, select Playback > Playblast

Watching this in 2022 it's amazing buddy

Excellent technique! Thanks for these videos

EXCELLENT foundational explanation of constraints, using a very professional setup. Thank you for posting this!

Thank you for the great tutorial, it's really helpful. Just one question, how do you find your key pose when you have to do a client correction in any pose in the whole body, coz you know it must be quite complicated to find the keys right for the whole body pose right, so how do you maintain it . Thanks

this video is fantastic!! ive watched countless tutorials on parent constraining and this video is the only one that makes me understand of how parenting works, your way of explaining is just so clear and makes it sooo easy to understand. thank you so so much!!!
