I was assigned a garden hose for rigging. In the storyboards a large bulge of water travels along the length of the hose.
My first inclination was to use a sculpt deformer, which would work quite well, but I'd been using sculpt deformers for a decade then and I wanted to see if there were other ways to achieve the same effect that would be new for me.
To credit my source, I first learned of rigging with Soft Mods when I found a website belonging to Chris Lesage, specifically this page: https://chrislesage.com/posts/sliding-bulging-effects-with-softmods/
This document will cover the basics of Rigging with Soft Mods.
