Behind the Magic

What Is Prop Rigging?

Think about animating a sword the old-fashioned way — you'd have to move every single vertex, frame by frame. Exhausting, right? That's exactly why prop rigging exists.

We create a digital skeleton inside your 3D prop — like giving your object bones and joints. This lets you control movement through simple, intuitive handles. Want a door to swing open? Just rotate the hinge. Need a gun's slide to move back? Pull the slider. It's that magical.

Smooth deformation at any angle

Easy-to-use controls for any skill level
