As I said, this video is fantastic and should be probably everybody's first Maya project. You can achieve the same result with another style. This a step-by-step tutorial showing how to use Maya, for absolute beginner students who might think Maya is a complex software and who want to learn the modeling. ( Some features are not available on older Maya such as the Workspace: Maya Classic )ģ) Maya Basic Chapter 3 threw me off completely because using a human model to explain the basic was a bit overdone. You need the latest Maya software to get it. You can change it to inches and etc.Ģ) Arnold Renderer is part of Maya as of last year so there might be some customers that will be wondering why that renderer is there. That being said, there are some things that have not been inform to the viewer (being nit picky) :ġ) The instructor did not give a proper explanation of the grid and how does 1 square is represent. You could give this video with someone who has no knowledge in 3D and still achieve the same exact results.

I know about 40-60% of Maya and after finishing this course, the instructor really break down the most fundamental knowledge of the software.
