3D Animation With Maya > Rigging in MAYA

Basics of IK,FK and Constraints in MAYA

25.3k

To refresh your memory, FK stands for forward kinematics. To put it another way, you rotate the joints to get them into place. IK, on the other hand, allows you to simply move an end effector and have the joints align with it.

This allows us to employ IK when we want to plant our feet (Standing/Attacking) and FK when we don't (Knocked Down/Jumping).

You manipulate an IK handle to pose a whole joint chain with inverse kinematics (IK). An IK handle is a selectable and moveable item that affects the joints to which it is allocated. See the overview of IK handles. An IK chain is a joint chain that has an IK handle.
