This course teaches you how to create 3D models and animations in Maya 2024, a popular 3D software used in film, motion graphics, and game design. The course is project-based, meaning you’ll learn by working on real-world examples. You’ll start with the basics of customizing the interface, selecting and manipulating objects, and organizing scenes, then move on to polygonal modeling, sculpting, and smoothing. You’ll also learn how to apply materials to surfaces and add cameras, lighting, and depth-of-field effects using the Arnold for Maya renderer. Finally, you’ll learn how to animate your work using Maya’s built-in animation tools.
