Intro to Maya
The module is dedicated to an introduction to professional Maya software and insights into 3D modelling, texturing, lighting, rendering and animation. Participants will get a sense of the dimensions and possibilities of 3D design and its practical use. The module will prepare you for basic artistic and technical challenges in creating accurate and attractive 3D images. During the module, you will work on practical examples to strengthen your knowledge of Maya and 3D design.
Modeling
This course teaches to model more complex assets such as cartoon aeroplanes, musical instruments, or electronic devices. Modul introduces essential tools and principles of hard surface modeling with Polygons and smooth preview. Throughout the module, you will become familiar with the techniques from box modelling to sculpting and resurfacing, moreover, you will try to achieve photo realism of models and create them in real-life dimensions. In the module's scope, we will create up to five complex 3D objects.
Texturing
Texturing is among one of the most important aspects of 3D. Applying materials and making textures is an integral part of computer graphics. You will learn how to use Adobe Substance 3D Painter. A brief overview of surfacing and texturing workflows. Using techniques such as premade textures, textures made from scratch and using procedural tools to achieve realistic or non-realistic materials. This will help you gain basic knowledge of how materials work in virtual worlds.
Animation
In the animation module, we will look at the basics of animation in Autodesk Maya. The module will slowly introduce principles and fundamentals of animation. Since rigging is a vital part of animation, you will also discover how to set up custom rigging systems and bind them to any 3D mesh. Building upon those basics, the module will steadily advance towards more complex animation techniques and tools, concluding the classes with the principles of biped animation. Leaning on diverse and exciting weekly exercises, you will achieve an understanding of animation in Autodesk Maya, including all the necessary production workflows and pipelines.
