2022 Nickelodeon Animation
Lead Character TD
I contributed to Rugrats as a Lead Character TD mainly focusing on xgen hair rigging and character rigging.
XGEN PROCESS
The xgen process was very time consuming so I created a 3 step process to speed this up for future rigging artists coming onto the project:
- Generate blendshapes for all hair curves
- Bind same joints from hair locks to closest joints
- Transferring weights from each hair lock geometry onto the bundle of hair curves
