Key Frame, Mocap, Basic Rigging

General

Animation has weaved its way in and out of my career.  It has been a cornerstone of my skillset and something that I have always enjoyed.  All of my experience in college was with key frame or hand drawn animation.  Then, after being hired as an Unreal Cinematic Artist, I worked my way into a Mocap Animator Position at Pendulum Studios.

I ended up spending the majority of my time at Pendulum working on Data Cleanup, Retargetting, Blending Mocap Takes, Fixing Motion, Finger/Facial Key Framing.

Following that, my time at Epic was spent honing my skills with Animation Systems and Cinematic Tools.  A good bit of rigging came with the territory as well.

Simple Prototyping Rig (Expand for Info)

Description:
This is a brand new rig (as of May 2014) that I have created simply for prototyping purposes.  More functionality will be added as needed(finger, toe, facial controls).  Some basic gameplay animations will be made as well.

Note:  I did not capture painting weights
