Description: Rigging doesn’t have to be intimidating. In this lesson, we break down how to rig a bouncing ball in Blender from scratch, and along the way you’ll learn the core concepts that apply to every rig you’ll ever build.
What you’ll learn in this video:
– How bones and armatures work in Blender
– The difference between control bones and deformation bones
– How to create custom bone shapes (widgets)
– Using the Stretch To constraint for squash and stretch
– Setting up a proper rig hierarchy
– Bone Collections for a clean, animator-friendly rig
This is Lesson 1 from the Beginner section of the Ultimate Rigging Course, currently launching on Kickstarter. If you want the full structured path from beginner to technical artist, including facial rigs, Python tools, and professional add-ons, the link is below.
