Would this be the Jason Osipa setup?

Same base idea, however I did this in 3dsmax, while Jason Osipa's method is for Maya. You have to go through a LOT more crap, to get it to work in max, and I really had to just come up with it on my own. I wrote a tutorial for it, actually. [link]

Omgomgomgomgomg! Thank you SO MUCH for putting together that Luffy Facial Rig tutorial. O___O I was at a loss on how to do it in Max, but knew the ways of Maya Facial Riggin.

Not too bad, though doing all his range of emotions from the show would be nearly impossible.

Probably not. I don't think I'll have the freetime to do it.

Combination of self-exploration, a few (mostly useless) web tutorials, and a training DVD that they got for me at work since I needed do some a rather complex face rig for our cinematic characters.

whow where do YOU work at and what do you do there? the company? and if i have questions will you answer them(for the future)? because i know that people that do that stuff and work for companies are usually stuck up and wont help people, for competition perposes.

I work for Sony. Recent published titles include Logan's Shadow for PSP, and Combat Ops for the PSP download-only store.

I'm a character artist, the studio's rigger, and during character downtime, a fill-in level artist.

I've got no problem answering questions when I've got the freetime.

Alot of rediculously complicated reaction manager and wiring.

I've had to do this sort of rig for work several times so I've gotten fairly fast at it - hah. But it's a real pain in the ass.

awesome stuff. Do you use morph to use those face rig controllers thing?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Athey In reply to vegnadragon [2007-10-28 17:01:24 +0000 UTC]

Yup. Tons of morph targets, all controlled through reaction manager with the controller shapes I made. Some wiring, and a little scripting is used to setup the initial controller, and then all reaction manager stuff to attach the morphs to the controllers.
