Description

Hi everyone welcome to Maya 2019 beginners course my name is Vito and i’m going to be your instructor throughout this course.This course is for those with no prior experience in Maya or 3D Modeling in general. Not only you’ll learn Maya but you’ll be introduced to fundamentals of 3D Modeling which will help you work with any 3D Modeling application. This in-depth 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 program. During the course of these lessons, you'll have a chance to learn about different aspects of Maya. In the first portion of this course, you'll get familiar with the fundamental skills that you'll need in order to begin moving around and working in Maya. From there, you'll move into exploring some of the modeling features found in Maya, From there, you go through the entire process of creating materials and textures. Then, you'll see the process of uv unwrapping. Finally, you'll discover how to add lights, shadows, and how to render your final animated sequence. This course is designed for new Maya users, so its goal is to help you form some really good habits and workflows, allowing you to see the entire start-to-finish pipeline, and by the end of this Maya course, you'll be at a point where you can feel very comfortable using the software. So let's go ahead and get startedNote: This course was recorded using Maya 2019, but since there are no major changes in the UI or functionality of the software. Course is fully relevant.
