WEBVTT 00:00.180 --> 00:04.860 In this lesson, we're going to follow the same procedure we just did for the spine and we're going 00:04.860 --> 00:09.650 to do that for the shoulders here as well as each one of the fingers. 00:10.140 --> 00:20.070 So let's create icons for the shoulder and we can create a another circle that's vertex, snap it to 00:20.070 --> 00:26.490 the joint, holding down the middle mouse drag and let's turn on the polygon so we can kind of see where 00:26.490 --> 00:33.240 the model is so we can make sure that we are going to put this in a place that we can actually select 00:33.240 --> 00:33.390 it. 00:34.410 --> 00:45.840 So let's hide the polygons again real quickly and let's turn on the component mode here and let's move 00:45.840 --> 00:51.750 this over and actually let's rotate it before we do the component mode so that we can make sure that's 00:51.750 --> 00:52.950 in 90 degrees. 00:53.430 --> 00:59.100 So let's go to ninety degrees and now let's go into component mode and just move all of these over because 00:59.100 --> 01:02.940 we want to leave the pivot and the same place for the shoulder. 01:03.810 --> 01:09.480 But we we don't we want to be able to select the conn over here. 01:09.870 --> 01:12.450 So let's turn back on that. 01:12.990 --> 01:17.000 And we can kind of get an idea of maybe where the shoulder corn should be. 01:17.610 --> 01:18.780 So that looks pretty good. 01:19.200 --> 01:27.210 And I'm going to go back to object mode and then I'm going to duplicate this and then turn off Polygon 01:27.210 --> 01:32.580 so that I can vertically snap it to the joint, holding down the middle mouse, drag on to rotate this 01:32.580 --> 01:34.110 around in 180 degrees. 01:35.160 --> 01:36.330 So it's in the same place. 01:36.690 --> 01:39.010 Then I'm to freeze the transformation's on both of these. 01:39.030 --> 01:41.490 I'm going to go to modify freeze transforms. 01:41.760 --> 01:48.870 It's like the other one G and I'm going to rename this shoulder left shoulder. 01:51.430 --> 01:51.970 Con. 02:01.940 --> 02:02.280 Cool. 02:02.420 --> 02:08.450 Now we can constrain these joints to the cons themselves, so let's select the con and it's like the 02:08.450 --> 02:16.670 joint and go to the constraint menu over here and let's parent it to the same thing for this one. 02:18.200 --> 02:21.460 So now when we rotate this, the shoulders should follow. 02:21.860 --> 02:28.190 We could also move it around if we wanted to, but we probably won't do that very much since that's 02:28.430 --> 02:32.960 anatomically inaccurate unless your shoulders out of socket. 02:32.990 --> 02:37.340 So let's do the drawing overrides very quickly. 02:38.150 --> 02:41.690 Let's make the blue and we'll make this one red. 02:46.570 --> 02:51.140 And let's make sure it's following the rig, so let's go down to these cons, let's first put it in 02:51.140 --> 02:56.110 the con group and then let's move the cog here. 02:56.550 --> 02:56.920 Yep. 02:56.920 --> 02:58.270 And I can see it's not following. 02:58.270 --> 03:06.850 So we wanted to follow this topmost one here so we can actually just put both of these and a group together 03:06.850 --> 03:10.240 since they're going to kind of both follow that top spine. 03:10.660 --> 03:19.900 So I'm going to command group those and I'll call that shoulder con group and I'll select this top joint 03:20.230 --> 03:25.720 con here and then I'll command click the shoulder con group and let's just parent constrain that. 03:25.750 --> 03:32.350 So now when we rotate this, the shoulder cons should follow along with the top spine. 03:33.040 --> 03:33.420 Cool. 03:33.430 --> 03:36.040 So let's do the same thing for some of the fingers over here. 03:37.060 --> 03:43.000 The fingers are going to be a little more unique in that if we try to constrain a con to it, we're 03:43.000 --> 03:44.410 going to get negative values. 03:44.740 --> 03:47.310 So let's just do that real quick to show you what I'm talking about. 03:47.320 --> 03:52.360 I'm going to turn off the polygons so we can vertex snap this nerve's curve there. 03:52.360 --> 03:56.620 We're going to do what we've been doing, where we modify Free's transformations, and then we're just 03:56.620 --> 04:01.830 going to constrain constrain the joint to the curve. 04:02.710 --> 04:07.510 So when we do that now, when we rotate the curve, you can see we're getting negative values. 04:08.140 --> 04:09.590 And why is that? 04:09.970 --> 04:20.430 Well, it's not actually the axes of the of the curve is not correct relative to the joint orientation. 04:20.920 --> 04:29.200 So if we look at the joint and we delete this constraint from the outliner that we just made, we can 04:29.200 --> 04:31.510 see that it rotates in the positive axis. 04:31.930 --> 04:36.900 So we need to figure out a way to transfer this position to the curve. 04:37.270 --> 04:40.300 So let me show you one way that I found to do that. 04:40.630 --> 04:45.190 If you're not worried about having negative values, then that's fine. 04:45.200 --> 04:52.180 This is kind of like a very particular thing to want to make sure is correct. 04:52.450 --> 04:53.950 It's not all that important. 04:53.950 --> 04:58.930 But, you know, as we're learning, we might as well try to dive a little deeper into this stuff. 04:58.930 --> 05:02.080 So I'm just going to hit Kamandi without anything selected. 05:02.320 --> 05:05.260 It's going to create an empty group, which is going to be called a null. 05:05.770 --> 05:12.250 Let's constrain that group without an offset so it jumps over to this joint. 05:12.400 --> 05:13.150 I'll hit apply. 05:13.900 --> 05:19.420 And now you can see that we have all of these values of the joint in that group. 05:19.990 --> 05:28.360 So if we delete that constraint now and we create a curve and just for speed sake, let's do the same 05:28.360 --> 05:32.530 thing, let's get the curve over there without an offset, will constrain it and then we'll delete that 05:32.530 --> 05:33.130 constraint. 05:35.510 --> 05:42.200 Now, watch what happens when we parent this curve into that group that has the same values, so I'm 05:42.200 --> 05:47.870 going to minimize drag it in and now you can see without doing anything at zero and everything out over 05:47.870 --> 05:57.080 here because they're sharing the same value and a child of an object is thinking, I'm at zero wherever 05:57.080 --> 06:01.370 I'm parented because, you know, I'm going to follow my parent. 06:01.370 --> 06:02.510 I'm not following the world. 06:02.840 --> 06:09.410 So if this parent has a bunch of world values in it, then it's going to zero out the curve. 06:09.800 --> 06:13.830 So because they're in the same place, the child is going to be zeroed out. 06:14.360 --> 06:20.230 So now when we do this, we're going to get positive values in the nervous curve. 06:21.050 --> 06:22.010 So that works. 06:23.120 --> 06:27.760 Now, all we have left to do is just to make this curve look nice. 06:28.130 --> 06:34.640 So we're going to control vertices and I'll turn off select joints so that I can select the curves and 06:34.640 --> 06:37.610 I'll make this into something that's a little bit more useable. 06:37.850 --> 06:42.890 So we'll rotate it kind of in line with a joint, scale it down and move it above the joint so it's 06:42.890 --> 06:43.880 easy to select. 06:48.630 --> 06:58.460 Now I can constrain the joint to the curve, I'll turn back on joint selection and I'll click parent. 06:58.500 --> 07:02.640 I'll make sure the maintain offset is on, but it shouldn't matter because they're in the same position 07:02.640 --> 07:02.870 now. 07:02.880 --> 07:08.200 So if I had appli without maintain, offset or not, that shouldn't really matter. 07:08.550 --> 07:14.820 So now when we rotate, we have these positive numbers in the direction that we would typically be rotating 07:14.820 --> 07:15.260 this in. 07:15.840 --> 07:21.420 So let's do that for the rest of the cons and I'll see in one second. 07:34.170 --> 07:41.550 So now we've made this other con and it's now going positive, we need to parent it under this one because 07:41.550 --> 07:44.440 now that we rotate this first one, it doesn't follow. 07:44.790 --> 07:52.320 So let's parent this whole group under this con so that now when we rotate this con, you'll move the 07:52.320 --> 07:53.310 rest of the finger. 07:56.830 --> 07:57.170 Cool. 07:57.550 --> 08:04.330 So let's also do that for the rest of the fingers and the other hand, and then we would group all of 08:04.330 --> 08:12.790 these fingers together and then constrain them to the con here so that now when we rotate, the fingers 08:12.790 --> 08:13.750 would follow as well. 08:14.320 --> 08:19.600 So I just quickly wanted to take a look at the right hand, because if you if we take a look at the 08:19.600 --> 08:23.430 joints themselves and rotate them down and see, we actually have negative values over here. 08:23.740 --> 08:28.560 So our tactic isn't really going to work that we used previously. 08:28.570 --> 08:30.520 So we need to adjust it just slightly. 08:30.940 --> 08:35.830 So what I've done is set up the same situation here. 08:35.830 --> 08:38.530 So we have the con and all that kind of stuff. 08:38.530 --> 08:41.340 And when I rotate it down this way, we can see it's negative. 08:41.740 --> 08:47.440 So the simple solution to that is actually to just rotate the group above it 180 degrees. 08:47.830 --> 08:52.260 So we're just spinning it around so that it is rotating and the positive now. 08:52.660 --> 08:57.400 So let's take a look at the thumb, because that's actually, you know, 180 degrees is easy when it's 08:57.790 --> 08:59.830 very straight along this axis. 08:59.830 --> 09:05.560 But when it's off to the side like this, how do we flip around this group by 180 degrees? 09:05.560 --> 09:06.520 Because we've take a look at it. 09:06.910 --> 09:10.140 The Y is at twenty seven point some odd crazy number. 09:10.600 --> 09:14.230 So what we can do is actually take advantage of a little kind of expression here. 09:14.230 --> 09:17.410 We can say plus equals 180. 09:20.240 --> 09:24.090 And hit enter and just going to add 180 degrees to whatever value is there. 09:24.470 --> 09:27.800 So now this should be in the positive as well. 09:28.010 --> 09:33.830 And this cool, I'll see in the next lesson where we will continue creating the rig and make a new space 09:33.830 --> 09:34.730 for this hand control. 09:34.790 --> 09:35.540 Thanks for watching.
