Rigging
Rigging is the art of creating a skeletal structure for a 3D model, permitting the model to be animated like a 3D puppet. Rigging is vital for our 3rd year animation and VFX students as they embark on the VFX Project, where students join forces to create a VFX short film, many of which have gone on to win awards at international festivals.
