In Week 8 during our Lecture for our Animated Narratives module, we continued work on more detailed rigging techniques, this time using a robot model to parent a model to a rig using empty shapes and vertex groups to get better animation quality. I found this lesson to be engaging and I was able to understand the content well.
Below is the robot model I had finished rigging with coloured empty armatures for each body part, along with a posed version that I had created to test out my practice rig.
