Car Rig

Hi guys in this assignment I rigged a cartoon car which is modelled by  my friend VJ,  it was very much fun to rig it I really enjoyed working on this assignment.

Rig requirements:

*Movement of doors, both front and back deck,staring rotation.
* Body vibration and suspension.
* Body stretch and squash and bend
*COG control



Firstly I used joints and Ik handle to get the suspension and the created the curve and constrained the ik handle so that we can control the suspension through that curve.



Then I used an expression to create the vibration of the body and connected it to an attribute of the COG control so that we can on/off the body vibration.


Then for the automatic rotation of the wheels as we move the car I used an another expression using a if condition so that it can also linked to an attribute.


Then I created curves for doors, decks and staring and orient constrained in their respective axis except for the doors because for doors I used set driven method for interactive control

Then I added squash and bend deformers and linked them to an attribute of  a control that I created for the body deformation using node editor.

Fainally at the end my outliner was quite big :



I performed a rig test also here is the video:





Thank You

Blend Shape Deformer

Hi guys , it is a small activity we got after we learnt blend shape deformer , we created a plane and did only half if the expression i=of the face then  used wrap and blend deformer again to get the symmetrical another half then blended both of them with master face to get both side of expressions. And here is the video,

Global Light Rig Setup

Image
Hi everybody in this assignment we setup a global light rig which will be very helpful to present models and add related shots. This rig is really awesome it  gives amazing output in software render with all the soft shadows and the model looks really fantastic, I never thought software render can give such a beautiful output.  And its portable also. The light rig will have two sets of directional lights, one set on the top which behaves as a sunlight and another set act as ground light.  The direction of directional lights can be controlled by their respective controls. And the intensity of the lights can also be controlled by the attribute given in the master light rig control I used node editor to get this connection. I have downloaded a model from -https://free3d.com   Model credits: https://free3d.com Here is the diffrence between various render outputs: 1) With only directional light 2)  With only Light Rig( 0.1 intensity ) 2)  With only Light
