Chad Morgan & Dylan Jones - Mechanical Rigging Evolved

1 Part one – biped Wanzer (by Chad Robert Morgan)
   a. Defining the problem
      i. Human vs. robot – defining the pivot points and separation of rotations
      ii. Simple control rig vs. intricate bind skeleton
   b. Setting up the clavicle
      i. Isolating the clavicle’s Y rotations
      ii. Isolating the clavicle’s Z rotations
   c. Setting up the shoulder
      i. Isolating the shoulder’s X rotation
      ii. Isolating the shoulder’s Y rotation
      iii. Isolating the shoulder’s Z rotation
2 Part two – complex Wanzer leg set-up (by Dylan Jones)
   a. Defining the problem
      i. Real-world mock-up
      ii. Defining problem – multi-joint control rig
      iii. Defining the pivot points and separation of rotations
   b. 1st layer - Control structure
      i. Initial ik set-up
      ii. Ankle driver
      iii. Plane driver
      iv. Creating controllers
   c. 2nd layer – procedural controls
      i. Piston set-up example
      ii. Isolating hip rotate X rotations
      iii. Isolating hip rotate Y rotations
      iv. Isolating hip rotate Z rotations
      v. Attaching 2nd layer to 1st layer
