Learn to create an animation ready zombie character rig with Houdini.
In this course we cover the fundamentals of the role of the Technical Animator or Rigger. We will create, node by node, a game ready animation rig ready to deploy into the Unity Game Engine. Along the way we will cover the fundamental concepts of rigging inside Houdini, and create a range of reusable rigging tools using Python and Houdini Digital Assets.
After completion you will have an animation ready zombie asset – and for Houdini Indie users we will explore exporting the finalized rig into Unity for testing.
Not a single step is skipped, we go from zero to a fully rigged, skinned and animated asset, with a versatile user interface.
