“Simplified� Reverse Foot
Construction:
- World space foot control object
- Elevation proxy parented to foot control
- Same pivot
- Only 1 DOF – counter-rotates against elevation of foot control
- Pivot proxies parented to elevation proxy
- Elevation only
- Elevation slaved to foot control via constraint or driver
- Heel, ball, toe, ankle
- Effector control parented to elevation proxy
- Located at ankle
- Point & orient constrained by all pivot proxies
- Constraint weight handoff via expression
Issues:
- Eulerization
- Foot control pivot issues
- Ambiguities in position
