VFXlearning - Maya Dynamics Level 1 & 2

English | 24 hours | AVC1 1280x720 29.970 fps | AAC 160 Kbps 44.1 KHz | 6.86 GB
Genre: eLearning | Level: Intermediate

 

In this training series we will explore the main areas of the Mayas dynamics engine. We will begin with basic particle emission and we will build up week after week working on more elaborate setups that will showcase the power and versatility of effects animation within Maya. The focus of this course is to teach our students how to analyze a particular effect and determine the most time/cost effective way to achieve it.


Topics Covered:
Particle Emission Fundamentals
Fields & Simulation Fundamentals
Geometry Replacement (Instancing)
Particle Caching
Effects Menu
Particle Render Types
Particle Goals & Collisions
Soft & Rigid Body Effects
Dynamic Constraints
Baking simulations
Particle Rendering Techniques

 

Level 2

 

MEL Scripting a fundamental area of effects animation will be covered and this will open a new world of possibilities for controlling and adapting simulations. We will learn to use MEL to create dynamic rigs and to help deal with repetitive tasks. As with any course in VFX Learning we will analyze effects sequences from films study them and determine the most cost effective way to achieve similar looks. At the end of this level students will have a broad knowledge of the dynamics engine in Maya and overall FX procedures and techniques.


Topics Covered:
nParticles
Nucleus Solver
nCloth
Maya Fluids
Different Applications of Fluids
MEL Scripting
Creating Dynamic Rigs
Thinking like an FX TD
