TED-ED: Making a TED-Ed Lesson: Animating zombies

The video tutorial, led by educators Brad Voytek and Tim Verstynen, uses a zombie model to explore neurological conditions and animation techniques. It covers puppet animation, designing a 2-D zombie puppet, rigging, and kinematics. The tutorial also delves into animation methods like straight-ahead and pose-to-pose, and introduces cut-out animation, emphasizing the importance of anatomy and rigging in creating realistic movements.

Explain the difference between forward kinematics and inverse kinematics.
