Hi, I'm not a fan of transformers, but this videos are really interesting and inspiring. Here is the animator talking how he made the transitions between robots and vehicles (or dinosaurs).
It's interesting to see how he works with the weight and how he switches from one rig to a different one, making the transformation fluid and believable. I think this point is specially important for us, as we are animating with 2d rigs, complex animations need more than one rig for the same character.
