| If you want to animate your 3D model, you can use bones and animate them to make the 3D model move. Each bone has a limited amount of influence on the 3D model and it pivots on one end, just like most of our bones do too. | If you want to bring your 3D model to life, you can use bones and animate them to make the 3D model move.

| This method of 'rigging' (creating a skeleton to animate your object) is super fast and easy, but it has it's limitations. It's based on a great and funny [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icqLFiwpNlM&list=PL4Dq5VyfewIxxjzS34k2NES_PuDUIjRcY&index=3|tutorial]] by Ian Hubert. | This method of 'rigging' (creating a skeleton to animate your object) is super fast and easy.

| - When adding separate bones (''shift + a'') parent them to the other bones . Choose ''with offset'' when you want empty space between them, or choose ''connect'' when you want them to mesh together. | - When adding separate bones (''shift + a'') parent them to the other bones .
