Character Rigging

Character rigging is the process of creating a digital skeleton for a 3D model, such as an animated character in films or video games. This skeleton consists of joints and bones that define how the character moves. Once rigged, animators can manipulate the character's movements and poses more easily, allowing for realistic animations. Think of it as the internal structure that enables a puppet to move; without rigging, the character is just a static model. Proper rigging is essential for bringing characters to life in animation and ensuring they move fluidly and expressively.
