This is a project-led introduction to Autodesk Maya, built around a Dia de los Muertos scene with an animated skeleton. The early lessons cover the interface and modeling, then move through shading, UV layouts, texturing and lighting before rendering.
Later sections take on rigging a character for animation, keyframe motion, the MASH motion graphics toolkit, and simulated cloth and smoke. Downloadable project files for each step let you check your work against the instructor's version as you go.
At 25+ hours it is a long course, so plan to work through it in stages. Building the skeleton scene from start to finish gives you a finished piece for your portfolio by the end.
