I'm responsible for all aspects presented here: modeling, rigging, animation and rendering/compositing.

Unique features(in order):

Imp: IK/FK bendy limbs, with stretch and volume control. The chest can also switch to IK, and has a space switch on it to freeze it in place so the lower body can move independently. Both the tail and the wings have a Dynamic/FK switch, so they can be either fully dynamic or fully FK. Moving the FK controls drive the curve the dynamic joints are weighted to, so you can still get some nice follow-through and movement out of them when fully dynamic. The tail has a sine wave that can be altered in the X, Y and Z axis' of the controls.

Worm: The entire spine is an FK/Dynamic system much like the Imp's tail. It isn't demonstrated in the video, but the ribbon dynamics allow the spine to twist with a lot more integrity than the usual Dynamic set-up allows.

Insect: The legs stretch, and the antennae have the same Dynamic/FK system as the Imp's tail.

Dynamics tool: This works by selecting the first joint in a chain, and it iterates down the line, setting up a set of Dynamic/FK chains whose dynamic attributes are controlled by a single control. I created this tool to rig geometric strands of hair simultaneously(which is why there's only one control to tweak the Dynamics attributes with). At the end of each strand is a control that can be switched from Dynamic to pure FK, leaving it up to the animator whether they want the simulated follow-through or not.
