Planting Feet - Toon Boom Harmony Tutorial #21

UPDATE 10/19/17:
Now that Harmony 15 Premium is public, the new Constraint Nodes do a lot to help with this issue in a much more efficient way. And they're great! However, for those still using 14 and under, this is still a fine way of tackling this issue.

In this Toon Boom Harmony Tutorial, I discuss how to create a multi-pose deformation rig in the legs to help keep our characters' feet firmly planted on the ground plane.

While the process is slightly more automated in Premium, I show how to apply the concepts for Advanced and Essentials users as well.

You can find this Harmony scene at my Gumroad store here:

Frank Summers Animation is home to my professional 2D character animation work, demo reel, and expanded clips of work done for hire. It also features the Wednesday Lunch Live Sketch where I pick a topic and draw for 25 minutes during my lunch break. Sometimes I even eat my sand which while drawing. It's quite a hoot. My Youtube channel also features a line of Toon Boom Harmony Tutorials that is centered around the transitioning Flash animator. Finally, I always have ideas of different types of animation that tickles my fancy so I try to upload those whenever I can. Keep your peepers peeled!
