Course Description
In this Maya animation tutorial we will learn about the intuitive and fun animation tools of Maya. We'll learn everything from how to set up animation preferences and create key frames, to learning how animation can be modified from Maya's Timeline and Graph Editor. We'll learn how to animate objects along a path, how to work non-linearly and non-destructively with the help of the Trax Editor and animation layers. We'll learn how to animate with constraints and even cover helpful tips on how to improve your productivity. Software required: Autodesk Maya 2013.
