ABSTRACT
109SOONER OR LATER every animator must have a character interact with a prop, and that means we need to work with constraints. They can seem a tad complicated at first, but once you understand how they work, you can design a constraint system that is simple and flexible. The next few cheats will tell you what you need to know about constraints as an animator. Then we’ll look at some tools that will make constraining a breeze. I’ve also included some in-depth video tutorials on the DVD, as the easiest way to learn constraints is to observe them in action.
