• The differences between FK (Forward Kinematics) and IK (Inverse Kinematics)
• Setting up the correct object hierarchy for rigging
• Introduction to the IK Tag and IK Goals & Poles
• Learning about Freeze Transformations & Reset PSR
• Using the Constraint Tag 'Up Vector' option
• Utilizing the Protection Tag to prevent unwanted movements

the best cinema 4d tutorial on youtube. i cannot emphasize my gratitude enough for offering these free resources of learning new things, you are awesome!
That 'Constraint - Spring' Trick is a huge life (and time) saver, thanks for another awesome tutorial!
eyedesyn is the only tutorial channel with real quality
No. 1 Cinema 4D tutorial channel on KZread. Keep up the great work! :)
Great to learn about the constrain tag's spring option! Thankyou!
Thanks! Always good to review the IK system. I especially loved the spring constraint which for some reason I've never used. Yes, more IK!
finally!!, this kind of tutorials are very rare to find. Thank you very much man :D
I took your Cinema 4D basecamp from School of motion...and mannnn.... it's amazing!!!! I learned so much!!:)
please continue with this IK type tutorials
Another quality tutorial, you have taught me so much E.J, thank you.
Excellent tutorial, EJ.. That constraint tag is a handy little devil.
First time that I understand how inverse kinematics work. You make it look very simple! Thank you!
Thanks, I'm needing IK to finish a proj. I've been in a hurry today, I'm going to watch this one again. Thnx!
Love it! Thanks for the tutorial. But I actually had a problem with setting up constraint tag on hand, something went wrong with my axes so I've made a target cube on top of the composition and told constraint tag to look at it. Worked well.
Awesome tutorial EJ! Very well put together. Trying to get back into learning more rigging, so I'm looking forward for the next one
This is so awesome, EJ thanks very much for this! Was racking my brain to try and figure out how to do this in our studio for a client. You helped us out heaps!
i never thought mac from its always sunny in philadelphia would make such a GREAT cinema 4d tutorial 🔥🔥🔥
Very nice!! I didn't know about that Constraint Spring mode! Really useful! I always missed something like that (like the overshoot expressions in After Effects!) Thanks a lot!!
Wow! a really cool tutorial, thanks EJ !
