This Maya course is designed to help you get a solid understanding of the core features found in Maya and help you to ease your transition into this very powerful software. During the course you will have a chance to learn about different aspects of Maya from Autodesk Certified Instructor. We will be giving you the structured, well-rounded, and easiest-to-follow Maya training.
In the first part of this course, we will be getting you familiar with some of the vocabulary and foundational skills that you will need to begin moving around and working in Maya and CGI. From there, we will move into exploring modeling features found in Maya, and we will begin building the 3D scene that will be our central project for the remainder of this course. From there, we will take you through the entire process of adding textures and materials to the 3D Models, adding animated movement and animation controls, adding dynamics, and finally, we will learn how to add lights, shadows, and output our final animated sequence. This course is designed for new Maya users, so our goal is not to weigh you down with a lot of technical information. Instead, we want you to form some good habits and workflows, allowing you to see the entire start-to-finish pipeline for this project, and by the end of this Maya course, we want you to be at a point where you can feel very comfortable using the software.
