The basic definition and usage of constraints that every animation beginner should know.
Point Constraint - Point constraint constrain an object's position to the position of one or more objects.
Eg: Constraining a button to characters shirt.
Aim Constraint - Aim constraint constrains an object's orientation so that it always aims at other objects.
Eg: Constraining eyes of a character so that they always look in a particular direction.
Orient Constraint - Orient constraint causes an object to follow the orientation f one or more objects.
Eg: A crowd scene may require all the character to look in a particular direction at the same time, to achieve this we can orient constrain all the heads to one main character.
Scale Constraint - Scale constrain causes an object to follow the scaling of one or more objects.
Geometry Constraint - Geometry constraint restricts an object to a NURBS surface, NURBS curve or polygon surface.
Eg: Constraining a drinks glass to a characters hand.
Normal Constraint - Normal constraint constrain an object's orientation so, that it aligns with the normal vectors of a NURBS or polygon surface.
Eg: Constraining a spider (your character) to a character to get it walk over the surface exactly.
Pole Vector Constraint - Pole vector constraint constrains an IK rotate plane handles.
Eg: Controlling things like knee and elbow movements.
Point Constraint - Point constraint constrain an object's position to the position of one or more objects.
Eg: Constraining a button to characters shirt.
