“There is this art of technology in the field of 3D animation films.When the characters and the world come to life on the screen, there are lots of people behind the scenes. Modelers create the flesh, and look, riggers then create skeletons, muscles and brains for animators to bring character to life. I work and study rigging and creating scripts for creating rigs and helping animators. I find beauty and fun in creating control and allowing the movement of a character, it feels as if I am giving life to characters. This exploration in rigging always presents itself with challenge, but those are chances for me to explore and study techniques, and looking deeper into real life form that I never notice before.”
