Hey, quick follow up. Sphere seems to have unparented to the bone or something, because when I try to move it in pose mode the sphere just moves and the lampshade does not rotate. It was working before- just not sure what happened. Any ideas?

Is your IK constraint still there? Normally the top bone before the sphere would be yellow if it was.

Do you use object-bone tracking of some sort?

My top bone here has IK constraints, but when I move the sphere in pose mode the bone does not move with it. Confused, but sure there is an answer. Thank you!

Oh, you’re using auto ik. You should use the ik constraint for more control. But first of all make sure you have the right parenting going on. The sphere should be cleared of parents and the other bones should be connected in the order of the blue arrows.
When the parenting is correct you can add an IK constraint to the bone next to the sphere.
In the IK constraint, select the armature as the target and input the sphere as the bone, add a chain length of 3.
This should all be explained in the course. But hope this helps.

Thanks a ton! Yea, I followed the course precisely but I must have cleared constraints or something for some reason. Problem solved.
