I actually hate rigging in 2D, it always results in characters looking stiff and unnatural, you can tell right away when rigging is used, the characters are always in the same angles, doing the same motions, heh, reminds me of an old filmation cartoon. I prefer to just place the cutoffs by hand in every frame, it is arguably more time consuming, but you can still get some shortcuts to cut time; and I get 100% control over the character and I can get the exact feel for the motion I want, instead of being at the mercy of the boundaries the rigging sets.
I agree. A rigged character means a tough tradeoff between low cost animation footage and moving images. I have to keep my eye on productions that do 2D rigging well because, as you've said low effort work just results in unappealing, cheap looking motion.
@@RigTheory have you seen da' hallow on netflix? Deres an interestin' trade between puppet and unique frames, and it makes da' stiff puppet rig shots seem more a decisive/ stylistic choice vs just low cost.
Wonderful work here; Law!
Thank you!
@@lawjackson7376 Anytime; Law! Keep at it!
Not a lot of actual information about the tool here.
