3D Buzz Mastering Maya: The Fundamentals

3D Buzz Mastering Maya: The Fundamentals

Categories: Tutorials » Art, Drawing, Painting

Learn at your own pace as we guide you step-by-step through the process of growing from a Maya beginner into a true Maya master!

Within these discs you will find over eighty two hours of the finest introductory Maya training ever compiled. Whether you are a complete stranger to the world of Maya, are self-taught, or have already received formal education, prepare to receive a training experience unlike anything you've ever seen, and a level of self-confidence you would have never thought possible! Immerse yourself in nearly 400 videos, covering topics ranging from introductions to 3D space, to modeling, animation, lighting, rendering, scripting, and so much more! As you progress through three highly varied and intensive projects, each focusing on different areas of the program, and carefully designed to bring your skills to a professional level in a smooth, flowing manner. Virtually every aspect of the program is explained and made clear, keeping the beginner skill set in mind.

Project 1: The Talented Ball
This project serves as a way to get your feet wet with Maya. This project expands upon the introductory videos by showing you how to construct, animate, and render your own digital scenes! The project focuses on every animator's rite of passage, a bouncing ball. However, instead of simply bouncing the ball across a basic scene, you'll spice things up by treating the ball as if it were a character performing for a talent show!

Project 2: The Abduction
The second project kicks things into a higher gear as you learn how to handle larger scenes that cover multiple shots, and include more complex objects, more detailed textures, and advanced lighting systems. You'll model, texture and animate an extraterrestrial invader as he sneaks into a moonit suburb to abduct a very unlikey subject. This project focuses very highly on animation workflow, showing you many techniques to simplify your animations while providing you with maximum control over your scenes

Project 3: When Mechs Attack
In this, the most technical of the three projects, you will learn how to handle vast scenes comprised of many different and highly advanced components. You'll take a deeper look at modeling, shading, and special effects as you create a scene that includes a towering battle robot that marches across a snowy landscape, destroying a building with a single blast from its mighty cannon. This project will introduce you to Maya's powerful particle system, enabling you to create a blustery snowstorm, along with your own pyrotechnic effects such as smoke and fire
