INSTRUCTOR POST - Mixamo Fieldtrip Tomorrow (Tuesday) night.

Sorry for the sudden notice - Just got the word from Brent now.

Field Trip to Miximo will be from 6:00/6:30 - 10pm. on Tues Oct 25th
2415 3rd St #239
San Francisco, CA 94107

There is no shuttle, so you'll need to get yourselves there. (you can use the comments field in this post to co-ordinate carpooling)

This field trip will account for our missed class at start of term. Be sure to come with questions.

Heriyanto - Dino Rigs

I'm still deciding between the 2 dino rigs that I've found.

First one is the raptor, which can be found on creative crash.

The other one is the one I got from 3D World magazine.



Few small problems with this one is there is not individual toe controls, and the fingers controls are not very flexible.

Alvin___TF2 model rigged

I used this rig for 6 months now, quite nice to use especially for parkour and body mechanic stuff. but sadly no facial rig, but well who need facial expression in parkour :p

Gabriel Tovar--red fox progress

my progress so far. i've re-proportioned the rig, with only a few issues, which are mainly a weird wrinkle i cant iron out behind the knee and around the elbow. after converting to quicktime, i've noticed a pop in the rising of the front legs, which shall be fixed.

I'm now officially the full-time Animation Coordinator, (huzzah!) which means I have office hours starting next week. You can make an appointment with Monica or Brian in the office on the 3rd floor. If you make an appointment with me, be sure to have the following:

• a written list of what you want to discuss.
• paper and pen to write down what I tell you.
