Ce include acest curs?
You will begin knowing the surroundings of Maya and discover the tools that Pablo Emmanuel de Leo uses to work. In addition, it will teach you how to structure and name the files to work in an orderly and effective way in the world of animation.
Once you are familiar with the work environment, you will learn how to perform the optimal topology for rigging and work with the references.
You will learn how to use the IK and FK systems, the Quick Rig and the HumaniK. You will create a rig of eyes, hands and accessories, as well as a facial rig with Blendshapes.
Pablo will teach you, too, to use the Skin and Pose Deform, to make a Proxy Rig and give a few small brushstrokes of programming with Python.
To finish, you will make five different poses of your characters and you will do the render to present your work.
