RigTips ~ Setting up a Wrist Watch
It’s been a while since I created a rigging demo! This time the video goes over some of the tips and techniques that can be used to create a flexible yet simple wrist watch setup or similar accessories on a character body.
Initially a query from one of my student over at Puppeteer Lounge I thought of creating a video tutorial for the procedure being applied for everyone to look at. So here you go, hope you find it useful. Cheers 🙂

Check out this interesting serpentine setup and animation. Cool stuff!
The animator could have animated the upper half of the body hand keyed and the lower half procedurally driven.
One of my student, Mr. Jimmy Gunawan shared this video to me. He stated “Often if character have costume or accessories or other props, the rig gets more interesting.” which is true =)
