Follow along and make your own bike riding character rig!

Here are couple of suggested ways to follow my class, Path 1 is easier but I think the rewards in Path 2 would be greater!

Path 1 - follow me step by step, I’ve included my bike and character models in the class materials to use for rigging the bike and attaching the pre-rigged character to it.
Path 2 - what might be more fun is designing your own bike. Following my process plus a bit of self discovery should get you there. You'll have you're very own animatable character on a bike you can call your own and the lessons should also stick better! If you also made your own character in my previous rigging class then you get two gold stars!!

If you need help with rigging a character you can check out my previous class 'Animation Fundamentals: Rigging Your First Character in Cinema 4D' here.

Please share your own versions! If you made your own bike riding character it would be amazing to see it, I'd even love to see some techy screen shots of your rigs! Best of all would be your own animations made with your rigs! I’d also love to see anything else you’re making if my techniques have helped you, share your journey!

For a bonus video attached to this class where I commentate over a time lapse of my animation process of the puddle-swerving cycling promo animation, check it out here on my YouTube channel.
