      You talk about these things as if you’ve teached them already? I know this is an “Advanced” tutorial, but these two terms seem to be referring to animation, so I would assume they get explained in this course! I know I could just ignore that and keep on going with the tutorial, but I want to UNDERSTAND everything, not just remember what to do.

        This lesson explains IK vs FK:

        If you want to learn more about all the ins and outs of animation I highly recommend checking out the Animation Learning flow, which goes through all this terminology and techniques in high detail from beginner to pro.

          I see, I went straight to this course, because I’m making an FPS, but I guess it makes sense to take a more general course first. Thanks.
