Fundamentals of Rigging – Learn How to Rig Anything in Blender

Chapter 1: Intro Chat
This is a quick introduction to what we will be learning in this course, plus a quick video showing the settings I use for my version of Blender. This will help explain those few instances where you push the same button as me and Blender does something different.

Chapter 2: What is a Rig
Let’s begin at the start and learn all about rigs/armatures, bones/controls.

Chapter 3: Main Concepts of Rigging
In this chapter you will learn all the main concepts of rigging. Grab a pen and paper, and bring your thinking cap.

Chapter 4: Constraints Explained
In this chapter we will look at nearly every one of the bone constraints. Although we won’t be using every one in this course, it’s important to at least have an understanding of what each one can do.

Chapter 5: Weight Painting
This chapter is all about weight painting.

You will learn all the tools and settings, the dos and don’ts plus you’ll get to do some actual weight painting.

Chapter 6: Bendy Bones and Constraint Practice
It’s time to get some practical experience with these things called constraints!

Plus you will learn all about those famous Bendy Bones!

Chapter 7: Rigging Projects
You are now at the pointy end of this course. Let’s practice what we have learned and build 4 usable rigs.
