Maya Course - Lectures on YouTube

Today I uploaded the first three lecture chunks (for lack of a better word) of the course I taught this spring on YouTube free for anyone to watch.







The course was offered through the Masters of Science in Biomedical Communications program, the Master's program that I completed two years ago. It covers intermediate and advanced Maya topics, or more specifically, pretty much everything that isn't modelling and texturing.

The recorded lectures are largely Maya demonstrations, tutorials, and explanations that focus on the application of a Maya toolset or technique for biomedical content. Admittedly some of the demos are less biomedical and more "let's use some spheres because it's simpler to demonstrate". They assume some prior knowledge of Maya and a decent understanding of the interface and modelling tools.

Lecture topics (that I will be posting regularly) include Animation, Rigging, nParticles, Optimization, nHair, nCloth, Fluids, Motion Tracking and Compositing with AE, and MEL scripting. I very much hope that you will subscribe to my YouTube channel to view the tutorials as soon as they are posted. There will be 35 videos of varying lengths in the series, so lots of content to come.

Thanks for checking them out! I hope they are informative and useful, and if so, please share them around.

Later,
Stuart
