Learn Maya - A Beginners guide to Creating Realistic Scenes (Udemy.com)

As a complete newbie to modelling, I really enjoyed this course. The part about the car did not excite me (it's true), but the first two projects were quite easy. Accessible explanations and a good approach. I started watching another course before this one and gave up. Because they kept skipping everything and saying: "Well, you've got it, do the rest yourself". It was not very interesting, especially if you don't know the basic things. So, thank you very much for this course. Now I have a clearer idea in my head of what I did and how it was done.

Bhaumik's approach to teaching is a spiral curriculum - going through the entire pipeline of modeling to final render in basic detail and then around and around again in increasing depth; this is not a criticism of the approach but if you are the type who learns best from writing out notes, beware - this course will leave you with the introduction to a tool on one page and the details of the tool's settings and uses spread out three pages later. I have learned a huge amount of tips and more-hidden features of Maya from this course and would honestly recommend it highly, but I would hesitate to call it a beginner course. Although it does cover the most basic of tools, it also delves into quite complicated concepts right away. I came to this course with a decent understanding of Maya already, but if this were my first introduction and I was faced with isoparms within my first hour with the programme, I think it would have been too daunting. This is particularly true now that we're so many versions of Maya ahead of Maya 2016 which was the focus of most of the course, so you really want to have a grasp of what features have changed or moved since then before you'll be able to really follow the videos. If this is your first time opening Maya, maybe try another tutorial first, but if you want to really understand the programme and figure out all the different options and settings of the tools you already have a basic grasp of, no other tutorial I have followed has gone into such depth and detail. For the pre-intermediate learner more than the total beginner, I give this course a strong recommendation.

Very good course, sometimes a little bit fast and u need to go back to check what is he doing. but overall very good, could learn a lot of things.

Really filled in many of the gaps I had. Thank you!

niceeee !

I think the course is very good, however, I have been using the opensource application Blender 3D for the last year and I have to say that this course is not very friendly for people like myself who are not used to industry level applications such as Maya. I really like the instructor, he is very descriptive but I would warn off students who are of the beginner category as they will certainly struggle.

Se fue un poco rpido pero entendimos lo necesario

I did this course after taking an introductory Maya course at my university. This class covered everything and more than I had learned from university. I recommend it to all my peers.

Explaining every Detail step by step

I realy think this professor made Maya by himself, he deserves like 100 stars

I went through a few Maya courses in college, but always felt like I was missing out on some of the advanced toolsets. This course is a very good thorough overview of Maya functionalities.

I like the lesson and the speed he taught is good and full info he's giving is good , no unwanted talks which makes the video too large is good .
