Last weekend I’ve been in a character setup workshop conducted by the great Daniel M. Lara (a.k.a pepeland) in PepeSchoolLand.

He teached all of us a lot of improvements and tricks to make a rig as simple and efficient as it could be. Because lots of times we (rigger-wannabes) pretend to do rigs with as much automatisms as we can, and those rigs so overloaded affect directly to the viewport’s performance when animators are testing animations in viewport.

I also have to announce that my 2006 rigging reel is going to be offline as of today, because I am working right now on my 2008 reel (actually both of them), I hope it will be finished for late 2009.
