Descriptions
Maya for Beginners: Complete 3D Animation Masterclass. In this foundation course, we’ll learn the fundamentals of character animation and game development. (specifically for the Unreal engine, but this method works for other game engines like Unity too). Learn everything you need to learn character animation with Autodesk Maya, taught by a AAA game professional with accredited university-level teaching! We’ll cover the basics, starting with the ball bounce and pendulum, and how to apply the 12 principles of animation to the human form. We’ll apply all the fundamental aspects to create sophisticated animations in-game: idle, walk, run, jump, and more. Autodesk Maya is the industry-standard 3D animation software. Understanding the concepts in this course will help you land a job in the gaming, film, TV, or music industries. In this course, you’ll learn how to animate your custom-created character from scratch.
The course does NOT include a custom character mesh. This course includes ART Tools V1 Zip, including Mannequin Mesh/Rig, which can be used to animate all animations and lessons without mesh or completing a custom rig. The course solely shows the process of animating a character of your choice (you can follow all animation concepts and apply them to any character rig, not just the Unreal Mannequin rigs), for ANY character, regardless of software or rig limitations. ART Tools require Python 2 support. Maya 2022 for Mac OS (PC/Linux Maya 2022 both currently support Python 2) currently only supports Python 3; the Art Tools require Python 2, which is currently only supported in Maya 2020 on Mac OS.
