designed for the absolute beginner, and even if you have never worked in
Maya before you will quickly understand and become familiar with the
basics of Maya.
In this video tutorial, you
will learn the basic concepts of modeling, animation and rendering in
Maya 2014. We will not only shows you how to access the tools in the
Maya interface, but also how to apply them. You will learn how to create
models using different tools and techniques, how to texture or shade
your models, how to rig them and how to animate your models.
Once you have completed this Autodesk Maya 2014 video tutorial, you

Autodesk
Maya commonly shortened to Maya, is a 3D computer graphics software
that runs on Windows, OS X and Linux, originally developed by Alias
Systems Corporation and currently owned and developed by Autodesk, Inc.
It is used to create interactive 3D applications, including video games,
animated film, TV series, or visual effects. The product is named after
the Sanskrit word Maya the Hindu concept of illusion
Maya
was originally a next-generation animation product based on code from
The Advanced Visualizer by Wavefront Technologies, PowerAnimator by
Alias Research, Inc., and Alias Sketch!. The code was ported to IRIX and
animation features were added; the porting project codename was Maya.
Walt Disney Feature Animation collaborated closely with Maya's
development during its production of Dinosaur. Disney requested that the
User interface of the application be customizable so that a
personalized workflow could be created. This was a particular influence
in the open architecture of Maya, and partly responsible for it becoming
so popular in the industry
What are the benefits of using Maya?
Individuals
who work in or are currently pursuing careers in the 3D animation,
character modeling, visual effects, and other animation fields will
discover many benefits of using Maya. The scene assembly and accelerated
modeling workflows built into Maya not only maximize productivity but
also help to streamline your design experience, putting creativity back
at your fingertips while increasing efficiency. Complex animation tasks
that are nearly impossible to construct by hand are easily created using
Maya's robust tools. The grease pencil, automatic joint centering,
camera sequencer, and weight distribution tools are just a few of the
features that Maya offers to help animators focus more on the workflow
and express more creatively. With Maya's enhanced Viewport 2.0 and
DX11Shader (DirectX 11) rendering engine, blurred reflections and shader
effects, as well as translucency, substance textures, and many other
features can be worked with directly within the Maya viewport. 3D models
and visual effects are rendered in real-time, allowing artists to work
in an environment that nearly matches final output. Large and complex
worlds are easily created and managed with Maya's Open Data platform,
which handles production assets as discrete smart data elements and
enables artists to quickly test different representations for the best
result. Maya offers many other tools and features that can enhance
productivity such as Volume Attributes, Paint Effects Surface, Clip
Matching, URI Support, File Path Handling, PySide Pythod Qt Binding,
Inline Help, and much more
