About the Book

Maya is state of the art 3-D animation software, used extensively in the film industry for both complex computer graphics (particularly digital characters, elements like dinosaurs and tornados) and the generation of storyboards for complex motion sequences. Maya was the key tool used not only in creating the creatures of The Lord of the Rings and Stuart Little, but is also heavily used in television to create 3D graphics for advertising and promo spots. Video games also use Maya extensively to create convincingly violent motion in 3D animations. Maya is leading software tool in this space.The Maya Ultimate Workshop -- covering up through Maya 5 Complete and Unlimited -- allows even a novice animator to build up skills – from basic polygon assembling to sophisticated characters and fluid dynamics – by doing, rather than just reading. 18 in-depth workshops put readers through the paces of creating professional-level Maya animations, illustrating all the major techniques taught in the text.Computer graphics animation is one of the fastest growing career fields in Hollywood – the The Maya Ultimate Workshop gives aspiring animators the hands-on skills they need to break into the market.
