What is a 2d animation rigging?

A 2D Animation Rigging job involves creating digital skeletons for characters, props, and objects to allow smooth movement in animation. Rigging artists design and implement control systems using bones, joints, and deformers to help animators manipulate characters efficiently. They work closely with animators to ensure rigs are functional, flexible, and meet the project's artistic and technical requirements. Strong knowledge of rigging software like Toon Boom Harmony or Adobe After Effects is essential. This role is crucial for streamlining animation production and ensuring fluid, consistent motion.
