Mathias Røyrvik / NINJA THEORY

Rigging Techniques: Cartoon to Realistic

Mathias Røyrvik started out as a runner at Framestore London before he joined MPC London as a rigger and worked his way up to become a lead rigger. He’s currently working at Ninja Theory as a Senior Technical Artist with a focus on rigging. While at MPC he would often spend time teaching new artists the pipeline, tools and general Maya/rigging ideas, something that led to him officially working on rigging documentation and training new hires.
