Rigging is the unsung hero of Character Animation
Character Animation takes a lot of know-how and practice no matter how you dp it. But if you’re working with 2D or 3D animation software, great character animation also takes something else: a well-built rig. A bad rig makes animation difficult, inefficient, and limits your range of movement. A good rig will give you a greater range of motion, but more importantly make the animation process easier and more intuitive allowing the animator to focus on the most important thing – the character’s performance.
