E. Sauzier developed advanced 3D animation and rigging automation for the rubikaY3 repository, focusing on streamlining character setup and animation workflows in Maya. Over four months, Sauzier engineered Python and MEL scripts to automate rig generation, procedural scene population, and facial control systems, reducing manual steps and improving pipeline consistency. The work included building modular rig architectures, dynamic visibility controls, and specialized tools for animation baking and breathing rigs. By integrating PyMEL and Maya scripting, Sauzier enabled scalable asset management and expressive character animation, demonstrating depth in both technical implementation and workflow optimization for asset-scale production environments.

Apr 1, 2025April 2025 monthly summary for danielkenobi3d/rubikaY3: Delivered a streamlined animation pipeline and expanded facial rig capabilities to speed up iteration cycles and enhance character expressiveness. Implemented animation workflow automation with bake_anim.py and get_animation.py, expanded facial rigs (goatee, beard, eyebrows), and introduced a half-closed eye blend shape to refine eye animations. Refactored rig build order to simplify initialization, integrated eyebrow rig creation into the main rig step, and extended controls (mouth/teeth/tongue) with improved visibility categorization. Introduced a breathing rig system (breath.py) enabling a single-joint rig driven by controls with skin cluster loading support for breathing animation on specified geometries. These changes reduce setup time, improve rig reliability, and enable more nuanced performance capture. Notable bug fix: eye animation flicker resolved through the eye fix commit.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025 performance review for danielkenobi3d/rubikaY3: Focused on elevating asset rigging fidelity and production readiness. Delivered major enhancements to Bradley asset rigging and eye visualization tooling, establishing a scalable foundation for expressive characters and faster iteration cycles. The Bradley Facial Rigging System Overhaul introduces a new build-config option, expanded facial control definitions, refined geometry and constraints, and a structured rig architecture to support advanced expressions and animations. Eye Visualization Enhancement adds scripting-driven eye state controls (shineA/shineB/shineC/heart/heartSideBroken) with visibility toggles and corresponding build-config updates. These changes improve realism, reduce rigging time, and set the stage for future feature toggles and asset-scale production support.

Dec 1, 2024December 2024 — RubikaY3: Delivered automation and procedural generation enhancements that accelerate 3D scene setup, improve consistency, and scale content creation in Maya using Python and PyMel. Implemented: locator-to-cube replacement to streamline scene cleanup; FK rig automation from locators to generate joints, control curves, and parent constraints; and expanded procedural generation for staircases, random cube placements, and scene population. These changes reduce manual steps, enforce repeatable workflows, and improve maintainability across 3D workflows.
