This is my attempt at rigging. I started to do it in Blender but I was running into issues with the auto-generation so I decided to try it out in Maya. I got a lot of help from my friend Erika and watching YouTube tutorials by Dikko. (Blender Rig) This was the ChatGPT response to the question, "detailed steps for the rigging process of a character in maya" Sure, here are the detailed steps for rigging a character in Maya: "1. Plan the rig: Before you begin rigging, it's important to plan the rig by deciding on the rigging style, the level of detail, and the control mechanisms. You can sketch out your ideas on paper or use digital drawing software. 2. Model the character: The first step is to create the 3D model of the character. You can use Maya's modeling tools to create the character or import it from another software. 3. Create the skeleton: Use the Joint tool to create the bones for the skeleton.

This is my first blog post. Essentially the point of this blog for at least the next 11 weeks is to work on a project for my DIGM 540 class. Some ideas that I had: Idea 01: Essentially I want to work on my master thesis and use this blog as a way to organize my thoughts. In addition, I believe getting my teacher and peer input could be very beneficial, especially considering the premise of my thesis is about game design education. Idea 02: I am currently taking an independent study course with Kathleen Martin in order to understand and how to execute the character pipeline. I'm hoping to learn how to sculpt characters, implement Clo / Marvelous Designer for the character's clothes, and then be able to fully render it out into a game engine like Unreal Engine 5.
