Direct skinning methods
 
 
 

The direct skinning methods include smooth and rigid skinning.

Smooth skinning

Smooth skinning provides smooth, articulated deformation effects by enabling several joints to influence the same deformable object points (CVS, vertices, or lattice points). For more information, see Smooth skinning.

Rigid skinning

Rigid skinning provides articulated deformation effects by enabling joints to influence sets of deformable object points. For more information, see Rigid Skinning.
