Overview: These Maya classes focus on dynamics and general principals.
Prerequisite: Level 2: Intermediate Maya or prior Maya experience is necessary. Students are to complete our Level 1: Introduction to Maya training
Topics:
Maya dynamics is a specialized course where the utilization of Maya dynamics and related Maya tools for working with rigid bodies, dynamic constraints, control particle renderings, and intense geometry with particle motion. Students learn to optimize and troubleshoot dynamic scenes and use Maya Artisan functionality in conjunction with dynamics.
- Dynamics
- NCloth
- Maya fur
- Maya hair
- Particles and fields
- Use dynamic constraints including rigid body constraints and soft body springs
- Optimize and troubleshoot dynamics scenes
Discussions:
- Create a model and animation for rolling ball and for dominos falling
- Discus exploding objects and using gravity and a hammer with velocity to break apart a model
- Discuss using wind to push objects or to simulate acceleration or deceleration
- Learn to use cloth dynamics combined with wind to make objects flap in the wind.
- Discuss tearing objects
- Discuss using dynamics to crush complex objects
