Creature Rigging with Softimage|XSI®, part of the Noesis Interactive™ MOD Your World™ training series, teaches you how to Structure Your Character by demonstrating techniques used by professional rigging artists.

Working in Softimage|XSI®, youll start with the basics of bones, joints, and hierarchies as you set up an animation rig for a biped skeleton character. Then learn how to create a shadow rig and envelope the character model to it. Next, youll see the character guides and rigs that are already included in Softimage|XSI® and learn how to modify them to fit your own needs. Finally, youll go through the entire process of creating a skeletal rig for a quadruped dragon character, ready to export to the Source™ engine.

DVD topics covered include:

* Overview of a Rig

* Creating basic skeletons and controls

* Applying constraints

* Mesh Deformation
