Magic Bench - Responsible for all rigging
As a rigger for Disney Research, I had the opportunity to create the character rigs used in this augmented reality experience. The characters consisted of an array of anthropomorphic animals, and their rigs were built primarily from scratch. With Unity as the project's platform, I needed to ensure that the rigs performed properly within the game engine.
