Here at Puppeteer Lounge, we worked on an experimental in-house project to re-create one of the famous battle scene from the movie 300. This is purely a fan work!
Enjoy 🙂

It is always great to hear from your student’s progress and feedback! Here is what one of my star student at Puppeteer Lounge has to say about our training workshops 🙂
Student Feedback:
William Esteban MĂ©ndez (Costa Rica) ~ “I`m very happy with my experience in Puppeteer Lounge because I learned how to make a entire rig with a world-class quality being sure that’s going to be friendly with any animator. Also, with the rigging workshops you become more than a simple rigger, you understand and apply all the additional areas which help to make you a good rigger and better artist, as anatomy, sculpture, logical thinking and more. All the investment that you make on PL really worth it.”

Rig demo of Puppeteer Lounge’s latest character AXE. The rig’s deformation is based on multiple corrective shapes. There are no muscle objects. Joint Puppeteer Lounge’s Training Workshop program to learn to model, rig and animate a similar character.
At Puppeteer Lounge we worked on all of the character rig for the TV series production by Frogtale Studio.
If you like the demo and would like to learn a similar setup, feel free to check out Puppeteer Lounge Rigging Workshop.

Here is what one of my student have to say and share through his Facebook post:
Hola personas! Desde hace bastantillo me propuse hacer un portafolio de rigging (una rama de Animacion Digital, ) para poder trabajar algun dia en eso. Ya he llevado 2 cursos y ya estoy en el tercero de una escuela llamadaPuppeteer Lounge, la cual recomiendo montones, el segundo de los cursos que he llevado era de rigging anatomico, un reto bastante importante porque habia que entrarle bonito a la anatomia, entenderla y esculpir montones. De hecho tambien lleve un curso de escultura anatomica que valio montones la pena, aunque me sigue costando.En fin, el video del link, para los entusiastas del CG, es un reel de un rig anatomico, con estudio de anatomia previo, MayaMuscle, WrinkleMaps y lo que aprendi a usar.
Para los no entusiastas, es un video de un bicho verde moviendose, y se mueve porque yo configure para que se pudiese mover, aunque son otras personas las encargadas de darle la actuacion especifica, esas personas se llaman animadores de personajes y en este caso fueron la gente de Puppeteer Lounge. En los comentarios voy a dejar el reel del curso de rig toon que hice antes de este.
