Course Description

***This course is being added to weekly*** This is meant to be a fun, introductory course on the full 3D pipeline using Autodesk Maya, the premiere 3D content creation and animation software. This course is specifically meant for students at the high school level or above. We are going to be learning how to use Maya, we will start learning polygonal modeling, then we will learn texturing, rigging, animation, lighting and rendering. We will even be doing simple character and creature modeling & animation.

It's my goal to get you up to speed feeling the confidence to model anything you want, texture it, rig it, animate it, light and render it. You'll finish this course able to do 3d modeling of any creature or character you want for games, videos, effects, or internet memes. 3d modeling and animation will open up new worlds of creativity for you! 

Learning can be difficult. That's why I encourage my students to have fun with the process and regularly take the time to not take the difficult process of learning too seriously. If you're not having fun learning 3d it's simply not worth your time, that's why I guarantee this will be the most entertaining course on 3d animation in Maya that you'll ever take! Join me as we have a blast learning to master Autodesk Maya together!

Instructor Details

Ben Taylor

I have been studying interactive design since college. I love the challenge of teaching students everything from 3d animation to object oriented programming. My favorite subject is currently game design. I currently teach high schoolers at the prestigious Meridian Technical Charter High School. If a high school freshmen can learn to design, code, and animate, then so can you!

Yes it was great, have still hard time with the UV editor and how to cut and merge selected faces or add to the auto-selected part new sections. Some of the course material was missing like shrek shirt png.

Compared to other courses and tutorials on YoutTube it is more clearly explained , and the instructor has a methodical approach , step by step, easy to understand a complex program like Maya.

Had just finished the Materials & Texturing section and this course is already a 5 star to me! The overall pace is really nice and I really appreciate your effort in emphasizing the hotkeys. Also, it is awesome that you took time to address problems we might encounter in Maya.

The lessons are very engaging with the lecturer's presentation method. It doesn't feel boring and you can watch him tweak with different settings. I initially wanted to go through this course to get familiar with the UI since I already know some basic terms, but this course gave me a good refresh to my memory and also covered the basics that I did not learn.

By Suzie Feodoroff on 7/5/2020

At the moment, it's kind of just random skills, I think. I'd prefer to be building something with intent. I'll keep going and see if my mind changes as I progress.

By Amir Alshimi on 4/17/2020

as exploring the software and to know how the app is working , yes it is nice m but technically compared with other courses it is less. `but i enjoyed it

By Sergey Bochkarev on 11/8/2019

Excellent introduction to main instruments of 3D modeling and animation. You will not get bored during lessons at all, because tutor sounds alive and energetic witch is one of the important key to get to students.
