  Linking Objects via Expressions

  Posted by Brian Smith on May 5, 2007 at 6:57 am

  I have an object I modeled with a whole bunch of moves. i did a 4 point lighting scheme with “lights w/ targets”. the problem is that there are some fairly drastic moves, and it tends to move in and out of the light. there are a lot of dark, extremely reflective surfaces that are just disappearing. how would i go about linking the light targets to the anchor point of the object?

  or is there a better way?! i am still quite new, i’m getting the modeling down fairly well, but the animating still needs some work.

  thanks guys!!

  You could use xPresso or SetDriven/Set Driver (the easy way in) but it’s probably easier just to set the various light’s targets to be the object you are trying to follow and just dump the target nulls entirely.
