Thanks everyone,
Really helpful – thanks for the recommendations. I think the mentoring route is
the going to be beneficial – I have a ton of questions, so it would be cool to
speak to someone about process and get some feedback on my rigs – I think I’ll
try Rigging Dojo and speaking to Dave at Animschool.
Thank again!

Maybe these 4 Masterclass docs from Jason Schleifer can help.

Yeah i have been looking for some time at Animschool for a rigging course, was
even once going to ask if they also did it for Softimage... but now Maya it
is... thing is.. im pretty sure Maya will change a lot in a so not distant
future or that other solutions might appear... should I be investing time, lots
of effort (and money) to learn how to properly rig the old in Maya? Im not
really interested in learning Maya and thankfully i only have to animate on
it... but i feel a complete stranger (and junior) now that Soft is no more...

AnimSchool is awesome ;)
iAnimate is more geared toward gaming, if that's relevant for you.

Hi all,
I’m trying to get my head around the rigging tools in Maya, and need a quick
boost in terms of knowledge - I need to support a ton of rigs my students are
creating after Christmas. Any recommendations? I would prefer not to have a
course aimed at beginners, just something that can introduce some mid/high
level concepts and techniques. Having said that, as I need to learn an entire
new toolset it’s probably wise to start with the basics (as long as it moves
quickly into other areas). Has anyone taken the iAnimate course?

Animschool also allows you to take a single class via its express option as
well -

Any help, opinions or guidance much appreciated…
