CAT - Rigging - Adjustments

Summary
"We constructed the lower body armature, added IK constraints, and weight painted it. Next we'll tweak the rig to make it easier to control."
____________________________________________________

"In this section, we'll make some final adjustments to the rig to make it easier to control. Specifically, we'll add:
  • a master bone so we can move the entire character at once.
  • knee-lock targets so we can control where the knees point.
  • an eye target bone so we can easily change which direction the eyes are looking."

Eye tracking: Z points up, Y points backwards, so -Y points towards eye the newly created eye bone.
