Bind Curves in the T pose / pref pose to an animated character

• Skin mesh in bind pose
• curves in bind pose
• curve is treated as non deforming
• root point of the curve is welded / constrained to a point on the skin

• primvars are created on the curves so that if an animated mesh is supplied, the rigid curves can be transformed

• Two parts
  • bind
  • deform
• Issues
  • long curves don’t deform naturally
  • no motion in the curves
