As a course gives you an amiable complete introduction to the software mentioned and ways to implement this knowledge to create amazing content in 3D. In my case, Maya and Mudbox were the options choosen for 3D Creation. I really recommend this.

Fue muy bueno, aunque esperaba aprender un poco más de animación en 3DsMax, pero para un principiante está bastante bien.

it wasn't good match of what i was looking for, i was looking for more about 3DSMax, but in this videos i saw a lot about Maya which is not use full for me. i think this class just for Maya, and 3DSMax & Mudbox just as an bonus i guess so far... well this is not Master Class to me. i just west my time for nothing, hope i could find something better from you guys... Thank you for make easy life.

The videos are based on MAYA 2015 but nowadays Autodask only provides 2018-19-20 editions for trial or student copy. I downloaded 2020 edition and following the lecture was difficult for me because of the differenceses between 2015 and 2020 editions. Also it did not mentioned on the Description or Requirements sections that lectures were following through the MAYA 2015 version. I'm so dissappointed about it and sorry for the UDEMY.

The course content is seems decent enough for a beginner but doesn't see, great for advanced learners. The explanation of the tools is somewhat lacking. I found myself often wanting to know more about a tool and it's full capabilities. Also the videos are hard to follow because the cursor and window text are hard to see. It might be easier to see what's happening if there was a 1080p option. The volume of the voice recording is really low so you really have to turn it up, which causes an annoying buzzing sound. As a presentation, I think it could have been done a lot better. I'm sure you could learn a lot if you go through the whole course but I'm finding it very frustrating to just watch it, so I'll will try to find an alternative course.

I think this tutorial is very good. I was focus on Maya only, I love the spider which is cool but I was disappointed that they don't included animate for the little guy,the rest of parts pieces. (the legs) but the rest I enjoyed. By the way is there any chance to include the little guy?

1) general: Needs to explain in more depth some functions and why. e.g. what we save/explain files/why/what not to do to lose data. 2) I am looking how to just copy a model/sculpt and then place them on separate layers - so as to manipulate or paint other versions (if any existing way) without affecting the rest of the multiples. As they all change altogether unless I find how to duplicate and paste on a new level! 3) There was nothing AT ALL about pose and ringing and if we animate in MUDBOX or better to do all in Maya/other?? How to import, export, what kind of files and other software is compatible to jump and interact as well to use same file (and which file appropriate do work well with each other)?? So far, all I watched only the things that I discovered in 24 hours, you should see my models ..... the tool is soooo MUD!! 4) But I was hoping you will teach as the difficult bureaucratic parts of files and jumping from software to software or ring and animate. I do hope you mention ? in Maya. Otherwise, is only what I already know. The fun parts. 5) How big the file not to crash if you want to animate the models, all these painful things are missing from the tutorial. Thank you

I would only suggest that tutorials for the latest version of software should be on sale, not the ones from 3+ years ago :)

Yeah! At first I had no idea how to do drag my polygons unto the grid, but with the previous questions and answers by past students and Instructor respectivley, I was able to discover I just had to change my setting! Then I had a blast!

I feel like it's a very straightforward explanation of Maya's interface. Great for beginners, as I have no experience with this program specifically.

This guys whistling S's are killing me, and his voice is a bit too much for me. Not sure how to describe it. Other than that, he is fantastic!

So far the teaching is good. He is in a little bit of a hurry and he is working in version 2015. I may have miss read but I thought this was covering 2018. Not a big deal.
