Learn the same techniques, technology, and approaches used to create advanced character setups such as skin and muscle deformation and intuitive animation controls just like those used in big-budget Hollywood films. This book skillfully addresses advanced techniques for character rigging and deforming without regard to a particular software package, which should increase readership by including users of all digital effects programs. This book is a great companion/follow-up to "Inspired 3D Character Setup" (1-931841-51-9), which introduces the concepts of this craft. "Inspired 3D Advanced Rigging and Deformations" takes this difficult and sought-after skill and provides deeper explanations and techniques.
