WEBVTT 00:00.450 --> 00:02.140 Welcome suppose mode. 00:02.430 --> 00:05.790 In this video you will be introduced to the pope's mode. 00:05.790 --> 00:11.730 Understand that we use this mode to test our models movement know that this is the best mode to be in 00:12.000 --> 00:17.490 to parent mess shop gics to individual bones and to make alterations. 00:17.520 --> 00:20.000 So let's go explore this in blender. 00:21.060 --> 00:26.340 Okay so we've got our base we've got our stem and we've got our first lower arm and we've got our two 00:26.340 --> 00:27.950 bones in place at the moment. 00:28.140 --> 00:33.170 And the first thing that we realize is that the bones are this first one is too low down. 00:33.270 --> 00:38.020 So it may be you may want to select the armature and go into edit mode. 00:38.020 --> 00:40.820 I mean this is my first gut reaction when I started doing this. 00:40.920 --> 00:45.290 I just pulled the armature all the way up to roughly the right location there. 00:45.570 --> 00:46.650 And there we go. 00:46.660 --> 00:47.880 Stum perfect. 00:47.910 --> 00:52.380 And when we go into object mode our model shifts about lots. 00:52.380 --> 00:58.350 So one of the first things to make sure is that you position things correctly before you link to the 00:58.350 --> 01:01.270 bones which I haven't done in this case. 01:01.380 --> 01:03.210 So I'm going to undo what I've just done. 01:03.240 --> 01:09.290 Now PPO's mode I'm going to introduce you to that mode you have to have the armature selected. 01:09.390 --> 01:14.910 And if we go where it says object mode now we've got something in there called post mode and if we go 01:14.910 --> 01:23.070 to that it allows us to grab how our model and start moving it and because it's linked it actually controls 01:23.070 --> 01:23.760 with the rest of it. 01:23.760 --> 01:26.320 Now of course we will want to. 01:27.120 --> 01:31.550 Lool that's that's looking a bit funny that I think that's just updating the mirror object. 01:31.560 --> 01:34.980 Now we will want to constrain these later on. 01:34.980 --> 01:37.530 But at this point in time it's just to show you. 01:37.550 --> 01:40.210 That's how we can move our model about. 01:40.710 --> 01:45.900 Okay so I'm going to come out of that for the moment and undo those changes that I made. 01:45.910 --> 01:51.540 Now what we're going to need to do in order to reset this because if we try moving any of these bits 01:51.570 --> 01:54.340 it's just going to screw up our model. 01:54.450 --> 01:59.910 So we need to um parent our mesh and we can do that very quickly in the outline and we've got the lower 01:59.910 --> 02:01.530 arm here and the stem. 02:01.530 --> 02:07.470 If you've not got the your rig your armature expanded You will want to do so so you can see these two 02:07.470 --> 02:08.400 things. 02:08.430 --> 02:13.200 And we simply click on it and drag it to the left and we can drop to clear parent and we can do the 02:13.200 --> 02:15.670 same thing with the lower arm. 02:15.720 --> 02:20.420 Once we've done that we can actually start remaking our parenting now. 02:20.420 --> 02:24.020 First thing we're going to do of course is go back to the armature itself. 02:24.270 --> 02:31.080 Go into edit mode and just shift this one here all the way up and as I say I've got my 3D cursor in 02:31.080 --> 02:33.670 roughly the right place anyway which is great. 02:33.760 --> 02:36.180 And that's better luck and judgment. 02:36.210 --> 02:40.860 Now when we use the tab key you'll notice it goes from edit mode to post mode. 02:40.860 --> 02:44.230 If we're in object mode it goes from object mode to edit mode. 02:44.250 --> 02:48.360 So depending on which one you're in the tab key will toggle you between the two. 02:48.360 --> 02:55.320 Now if we're reimpose mode we can now select both the mesh and the bone with the shift key one after 02:55.320 --> 02:57.810 the other and we can see the bone is highlighted in blue. 02:57.900 --> 03:03.120 If we were doing a similar thing in object mode the whole armature get selected. 03:03.120 --> 03:06.130 And that doesn't give us the degree of control that we want. 03:06.240 --> 03:12.330 And it also causes your geometry to bounce about if you're unlucky enough to not have things perfectly 03:12.330 --> 03:13.250 aligned. 03:13.320 --> 03:20.430 So make sure you reimpose mode selects the object you want to be parents hold down Shift select the 03:20.460 --> 03:25.760 parent object which in this case is our bone and we use control and P. 03:26.530 --> 03:33.910 And I want to select the set the parent to bone and I'm going to do the same thing with our lower arm 03:33.940 --> 03:36.100 under the shift click. 03:36.850 --> 03:42.360 This top bone here and then control P bone. 03:42.570 --> 03:47.850 And we can very quickly check that this is working by grabbing it and rotating it round. 03:47.860 --> 03:50.380 Yeah that's working absolutely fine there. 03:50.470 --> 03:55.740 And this one through here if we rotate that round it's starting to look pretty good. 03:55.830 --> 04:00.370 I wrote that to the z axis because that's what we do in data sets a good representation of what's going 04:00.370 --> 04:01.350 on. 04:01.360 --> 04:02.410 Perfect. 04:02.500 --> 04:03.850 It's Challenge time. 04:03.850 --> 04:10.250 I'd like you to move the stem bones tail so um parent the stem bone from the stem mesh. 04:10.440 --> 04:14.630 Is it the stem bone and move its tail to the correct location. 04:14.800 --> 04:16.370 And then finally enter a pair. 04:17.360 --> 04:22.190 Then finally enter post mode and repair and to the mesh objects. 04:22.190 --> 04:26.550 Then finally of course you can play about with it and see how it all moves about. 04:26.900 --> 04:29.650 So pause the video now and give that a go. 04:32.340 --> 04:33.170 Okay guys. 04:33.240 --> 04:34.260 Welcome back. 04:34.260 --> 04:39.360 Let's hop straight on over into blender so we're going to now go through the process that we've just 04:39.360 --> 04:40.410 been through in fact. 04:40.410 --> 04:42.100 And just recap on it. 04:42.120 --> 04:48.300 So first of all I'm going to unp parent our lower arm and our stem. 04:49.200 --> 04:55.470 And then get a hop into edit mode and just this tail piece of our STEM bone because it's the stem bone 04:55.500 --> 04:58.770 over here in the right hand side in the properties. 04:58.950 --> 05:04.620 And I'm going to hop over to the left view and literally move it up so it's almost on top of my 3-d 05:04.620 --> 05:05.700 cursor. 05:05.700 --> 05:06.810 Perfect. 05:06.810 --> 05:11.490 Now I'm just going to go around and make sure that it's aligned and I've not moved out of alignment. 05:11.490 --> 05:12.720 That looks great. 05:12.720 --> 05:17.670 Finally I'm going to hop into object mode and then switch to pose mode. 05:17.670 --> 05:26.550 Now I can click our STEM at the bottom shift and select the lower bone here and go control P bone up 05:26.550 --> 05:28.440 here I can do the same thing. 05:28.710 --> 05:33.180 Control P bone and I'm now just going to check the mesh objects. 05:33.180 --> 05:37.140 I'm going to make sure I'm on the mesh properties here or the object properties and just go down here 05:37.140 --> 05:40.820 where it with the lamp ragers the parent will connect to the lower arm. 05:40.820 --> 05:42.030 That's correct. 05:42.030 --> 05:46.170 We go to the stem again it's going to be the lamprecht that's the parent and it connects to the bone 05:46.170 --> 05:47.720 which is the stem bone. 05:47.730 --> 05:48.930 Perfect. 05:48.930 --> 05:49.920 Great guys. 05:49.920 --> 05:53.820 Please share in the discussions and I will see you in the next lecture.
