Facial Rigging in CINEMA 4D
In this set of CINEMA 4D tutorials, we will learn how to set up a face for animation in CINEMA 4D. Software required: CINEMA 4D R13.
What you'll learn
In this set of CINEMA 4D tutorials, we will learn how to set up a face for animation in CINEMA 4D. Throughout the tutorial, we'll focus on providing animators with the control they need to create believable expressions with a control rig that computes quickly. We'll also creatively explore several techniques and tools that can be used to create natural deformations. Step by step, we'll make a facial rig that is robust and animator-friendly. We'll learn everything from how to set up pose morphs to learning a technique that simulates fleshy eyes. We'll learn how to pin objects to a deforming surface, how to set up Priorities for the rig to evaluate properly, and we'll also become familiar several of CINEMA 4D's rigging tools. By the end of this tutorial, you'll have the knowledge you need to create facial rigs that produce natural and entertaining expressions. Software required: CINEMA 4D R13.
