What is Euler Rotation and How to Avoid Gimbal Lock

If you're wondering what Euler rotations are, or heard the words gimbal lock but not quite understood what it is, or if you've already encountered gimbal lock and are wondering how to avoid or fix it, then here's my gift to you- this video explaining what euler rotations, rotation hierarchy and rotation order is, gimbal lock and ways to avoid gimbal lock or fix it if you've already gotten stuck with it. This demonstartion is done in Blender and does also talk about the Euler filter or discontinuity filter in Blender, but the explanations and suggestions apply to any 3d animation software. 0:00 - Intro 0:11 - What is a gimbal? 0:39 - What is gimbal lock? 01:32 - Euler rotation 01:32 - The 6 possible rotation modes / hierarchies 02:31 - Parenting / rotation hierarchy 04:32 - How to avoid Gimbal lock 06:54 - Quaternion Rotation 07:48 - How to fix gimbal lock 08:13 - Discontinuity Euler filter in Blender https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd4tG1v5ii8z9IG1i9SI_Tw?sub_confirmation=1 My social media: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/RobynOArt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/robyno_art/ Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/RobynO.Art Twitter: https://twitter.com/RobynOArt Video effects templates: https://aejuice.com/product/i-want-it-all-bundle-lifetime/?ref=robyno Some of the links in this description are affiliate links.
