This book is split into three modules that are subsequently divided into chapters. The first module is the foundation module: in this module you'll cover, among other topics, the 12 cardinal principles of animation with reference to classic real-world examples and famous movies\/animation shots. Using these, the further chapters explore using key frames and graph editors to obtain fluid motion in your animations. Practical examples are used to better explain which feature suits a particular scenario. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second module, called the backbone module, introduces you to deformation tools and their use for character animation. Further chapters cover driven animations, constraints posed by bones, bipeds, and the CAT tools available in 3ds Max 2019. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe final module, the lifeline module, encourages you to bring your character to life by applying principles learnt in the previous modules. Here you will be guided on how to retarget animations from one character to other characters or rigs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn completing \u003ci\u003eCharacter Rigging and Advance Animation\u003c\/i\u003e, you will be able to create character rigs for bipeds and quadrupeds with ease, animating them with life-like motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat You Will Learn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand the 12 principles of animation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet up an animation-ready character rig from scratch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster the deformation tools available for animation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWho This Book Is For\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders who are familiar with 3ds Max at a basic level and are looking at getting into character rigging and animation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Purushothaman Raju\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1484250362\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781484250365\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apress\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/26\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.62d","brand":"Purushothaman Raju","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43936140558591,"sku":"9781484250365","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_521f3df8-c341-4a39-9d4c-4e756651efae.jpg?v=1681423819","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/character-rigging-and-advanced-animation-purushothaman-raju-9781484250365","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
