cmiVFX Blender Massive Mammoth Masterclass Rigging V1
It’s been about 2 years now since the frost Blender Mammoth training came into the world during the release of Blender 2.49. A lot has changed and it’s a new era, the age of Blender 2.5! That’s why we are stepping up and finally bringing the Mammoth to life! This resurrection will happen in a series of videos, recorded by some the most talented and famous Blender Artists around. That’s why we are extremely proud to introduce the Massive Mammoth Masterclass!

The first, dual video kit, will cover rigging and weighting and will be presented by Nathan Vegdahl, the lead rigger of the Blender Foundation’s open movies Big Buck Bunny and Sintel. In over 6 hours you will learn the secrets of perfect weighting, efficient control rigs and shape keys. This is the perfect foundation for the upcoming sequels of this tutorial series, which will cover animation and scene-setup.
