Fisher pelican example project
I need to make an animation similar to string in this example:
Spine Tips: 15 fisherpelican
Can I download that project somewhere? I don't understand how it's possible to bend string that smoothly using just two bones.
Our very own Erika recorded rigging that project here:

I know these kinds of video recordings are very loooong, but see the links in the video description to jump to specific topics.
The pelican fisherman project files from that video are here:

I see Nate already replied, but if after viewing the video something is still unclear, I'm happy to clarify!
Specifically, the part that should interest you is around here and lasts around 10 minutes:

The timestamps:
01:54:55 Generating the mesh for the fishing pole
01:55:45 Fishing rod bones creation
02:00:10 Fishing wire mesh and bones
02:12:20 Wire IK constraint
