Hey everyone, I pondered on whether or not to post this on here, or my personal blog, but I hoped this would give me the most responses. Correct me if wrong, but as of Friday, 1st, 2nd and 3rd years all came to the end of their projects. Now, after a much needed 12 hour sleep, I've found today rather slow and it almost seems weird not to be panicking or staying up until birds chirp. What I want to ask, how does anyone manage to keep up the momentum that you build up towards the end of a project, and carry it on into the next? I enjoyed the hustle and bustle of a sharp deadline and don't want to 'forget' what it was like due to a week off. Any thoughts welcome. Thanks. Elliot.

Hi guys, I have been revisiting the rigging tutorials that we did way way back when, seeing as I avoided rigging like the plague I thought I had better brush up. When we went through the tutorials with Alan we sometimes got one or more of the spinal joints snapping 90 degrees into another axis when setting up the controls for the rig. I'll be damned if I can remember the remedy, I probably jotted it down somewhere, in a book, in a bag, now in the bin. I'm sure some of the younger fresher minds amongst you can give the old noggin a kick start.
