Studio Photography - The Best Softbox Ever | DIYPhotography.net
by sbrothier
This is a DIY project I have had in mind for a while now. When I purchased my studio flash heads, they came with a couple of small softboxes. Although I prefer to use translucent umbrellas whenever I can (small, light, easy to transport), there are times when a softbox is a better solution. While I could use the studio head softboxes in some circumstances with my small strobes, there was no way of effectively holding the flash in place without a lot of jerry rigging. To this end, I wanted to design a softbox that would be light, reasonably strong and durable, adaptable (double diffuser, grid attachment, barn doors etc.) at a later date and have a quick and easy way to mount the flash.

Jorge Rocha -- Rigging 1
by -Nicolas-
(via)
I intend to make a tutorial here about some tricks which can be done after the usual process of rigging a mesh to an armature. I assume you have experience with the process of skinning and assigning and editing deform weights, maybe you already have a full model, but are unhappy with some unwanted artifacts. This tutorial will not cover inverse kinematics, but the principles shown here are not incompatible or interfere with IK.
