Gnomon: Introduction to Maya: Maya Interface and Workflow

by Nguyen Trung Hoa Sun 22 Aug 2010, 3:52 am

Over the past many years, Maya has become the leading 3D application used

in the film, broadcast and game industries. Hailed for its diverse

toolset, Maya excels due to its integration, flexibility and performance

in regards to modeling, texturing, lighting, rendering, animation, rigging

and effects. Designed for the individual new to Maya, this DVD contains

over five hours of lecture. The essential UI (user interface) is

discussed, focusing on the work- flow of an experienced user. Learn how to

efficiently create, manipulate and organize hierarchies, objects,

components and cameras. Many concepts are introduced including the use of

Polygons versus NURBS, tesselation, antialiasing, UV Layout, projects,

preferences and MEL scripts. Customization of the UI is also addressed in

order to dramatically improve efficiency and workflow.

I converted this to one movie in DIVX home theater profile
because the original was too big for 1 dvd and I can watch
this on my HD TV with my upconverting DIVX compatible
DVD player while working on my computer. Quality is great.
