Utahraptor

This dinosaur model was made for the Novel: "Out of Time." It will be used for promotional animation.

The rigging video is sub-par at best. I recorded three times, straight through, no notes. I go off tangent a lot, but it's a pretty basic rig. The main highlights of the video are 1. why rotate joint ends before binding. 2. the order in which I parent objects. 3. nullifying previous translation and rotation data so that there is no double transform when moving the controls. 4. Also, this allows for joints to be constraint to the controls without the rig exploding (double transform). If anyone knows a better way to rig, lmk.
