I was part of the Rigging Team for BigRock’s short film “Above”; I worked on the body mechanics of the main character, part of the facial rig (mouth+cheeks), and created additional controls for the clothes. I also worked on the technical cleanup of some of the animated shots.
The whole project was completed by our masterclass in six weeks.
Mouth and Cheeks Rig
Facial Rig animation test
Rig turnaround
Body rig in motion (animated by BigRock's masterclass Animation team)
Stretchy legs with standard IK setup and double joint for the knee
Hand setup with knuckle joints & extra joints in the arm for better wrist twist
Torso and arms are all stretchable and with IK/FK switches. Crossed scapula joints for optimal deformation; neck twist joints.
