The presence of the Rigger profile in the entertainment industry is increasing exponentially. And it is expected to continue to do so, to the extent that content viewing platforms or video game sagas, among other sectors, do. It is therefore essential to learn limb movement techniques as a fundamental part of the rigger's role.
The postgraduate diploma in Advanced Limb Rigging allows you to identify the possibilities offered by the FK and IK systems when animating. We will go deeper into how to create a Rig from the combination of both, so that the animator can activate one or the other according to the convenience of the character's action. In addition, to develop it in an ideal way, the creation and addition of custom attributes and parameters in the Control Rig elements will be discussed in depth.
On occasion, the animator may also require that the torso and head rig system be configured to perform certain movements that a basic rig does not provide. Therefore, it is necessary to know its limitations and the problems it can cause to the animator in his work. Consequently, we will propose an advanced and professional control system that will provide automatisms and a great freedom of movements to our character, avoiding these limitations and making easier the work of animating.
The final module, on the other hand, will address certain special needs. For example, flexing the limbs as if they were made of rubber to emphasize the style of the work. This will be done through the Stretch & Squash, Bendy and Twist systems. Also, a topic has also been reserved for the optimization of the models with Proxy, which allow the animator to work more fluently.
This training will be carried out in a 100% online mode, without timetables and with all modules available from day one. In this way, the student can work according to his or her own schedule and ensures an adequate conciliation with the personal and work environment.
Do you know the Stretch & Squash, Bendy and Twist systems? The program of this qualification has reserved a specific topic in which all its keys are explained"
This postgraduate diploma in Advanced Limb Rigging contains the most complete and up-to-date program on the market. The most important features include:
- The development of case studies presented by experts in Body Rigging
- The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
- Practical exercises where the self-assessment process can be carried out to improve learning
- Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies
- Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
- Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection
The market requires Riggers who adapt their work to the needs of the animator. With TECH, you will learn the most appropriate ways to do it”
The program includes, in its teaching staff, professionals from the sector who bring to this program the experience of their work, in addition to recognized specialists from prestigious reference societies and universities.
The multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.
This program is designed around Problem-Based Learning, whereby the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise throughout the program. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts.
Thanks to TECH, you will be able to apply low performance proxy systems to your projects and work more smoothly"

Enroll and learn how to generate realistic cinematics applicable to movies, series or video games"
Objectives
To bend a knee or an elbow requires the assimilation of a large number of concepts and tools. Graduates of this postgraduate diploma will learn, for example, how to set up a hybrid FK and IK system for a character, how to use the Node Editor tool and even how to create custom tools with Python. The objective: to internalize all the rigging processes necessary to give movement to the different parts of the body.
