Rigging Consultant ~ Puppeteer Lounge.
Recently at Puppeteer Lounge we have started a totally new genre of online learning platform through our Online Character Rigging Consultant service.
Basically the consultant service is similar to the online workshop, however with consultant service you get to learn with your team on production related task at your studio or company. The consultant service goes over review, mentor-ship, guidance and supervision with artist working at studio and production house.
It’s our great pleasure to teach rigging team from studio around the world 🙂
For more info, check out the Puppeteer Lounge’s Rigging Consultant page!
