Student Review:  Terence Kent

      “Excellent course about the different fluids and rigid body dynamics in Maya.

        Really helped me to understand the basics, I’m now really comfortable using these in my projects.”

Maya is a standard 3D Application tool used widely in Visual Effects studios to create 3D models,game assets, smoke,fire and dust etc…

Learning Maya is challenging for beginners,that’s why I created this course to cover all the techniques,we are going to start supper simple and gradually we’re going to create more advanced effects.

What you will Learn:

Quick dive into Autodesk Maya.

3D modeling fundamentals.

You will Understand how the 2D and 3D containers work.

Complete nParticles section.

Expressions.

How to use Maya fields.

Creating Helicopter Landing dust effect.

Creating Torch Fire.

Creating rain effect.

Rigid Bodies.

Creating Wheel burnout.

Water effect.

Dust effect.

Rocket smoke.

Bifrost

and much more…

So enroll now and I promise you won’t be disappointed.
