RIGGING

A technique used in skeletal animation for representing a 3D character model using a series of interconnected digital bones.

• Rigging

• Scaling

• Constraining

• Kinematics

This is the process of binding a modeled surface to a skeleton.

• UV Mapping

• Inverse Kinematics

• Creating Joints

• Skinning

The _________ is the interface for your character, dictating how the character moves.

• Joint

• Rig

• Constraint

• Timeline

A _________ is basically a marker used to specify an object's position and attributes at a given point in time.

• Timeframe

• Spacing Frame

• Keyframe

• Scene Frame

After you create a skeleton, you bind it with the character’s surface so that the surfaces move with the skeleton during animation. The character’s surface after binding is called a ______.

• Skin

• Constraint

• UV Map

• Texture

These are the building blocks of skeletons and their points of articulation; they have no shape and therefore can not be rendered.

• Workspace

• Nodes

• Rigs

• Joints

What is 3D Rigging?

• The process of setting lighting into a 3D scene.

• The process of producing 3D objects from primitive objects such as Cube

• The process of assembling joints and controllers into 3D characters or 3D models.

• The process of incorporating materials and textures into 3D characters or 3D models

Explain the function of aim constrain.

• Attach to the movement of the first thing we selected

• Attach the rotation from first object to second object

• Make the second object that we selected will follow the movement of the second object

• Point the second object to the first object that we selected

Which of the following statements does NOT correctly describe the function of the controller in the animation process?

• Works to simplify the process of returning the joint to its default position joint

• Works as a history saver in the Modeling process

• Functions as a substitute for moving joints

• Function as a place to save animated keys

Which is the correct root joint definition?

• Root joint can only move one joint

• Root joint is a joint / bone that controls the entire joint hierarchy

• Root joint is a joint that is not connected to each other

• Root joint only controls some joints
