Instancing

Instancing lets you create mass duplication of objects in a scene, with very little overhead. Previously, you would simply run out of memory.

lightwave 10 ALien Rigging Tips

 

Still pretty complicated.  Watch the end for exporting into a scene, and also

how he uses the spreadsheet editor and groups to reset the mouth area or eyelds.

I think the next step is to make motion mixer mouth poses etc.

Very interesting reference video of how a differential works in a car.

This is basically a very well explained concept video.
You can use it sort of to deal with car wheels in your videos.
Simple expressions can help do this in lightwave.
Anyone have a link to one?
