In this collection of lessons we will use a project-based approach to learn about modeling tools and techniques in Maya. 

“In this course, we will get an introductory look at the modeling process in Maya. We will use a project-based approach as we cover the basics of modeling, look at commonly used tools, and talk about some time-saving tips and techniques gleaned from production experience. We will begin by looking at the various types of geometry available to you and how you can actually convert between those different types. You will learn how to organize your model into hierarchies and keep your scene clean and efficient. We will also take a look at several modeling tools, including polygonal tools like extrude and the insert edge loop tool for adding resolution, NURBS tools like loft and extrude to create smooth surfaces, and a few subd tools as well. We will take a look at using a smoothing or subdivision workflow and use deformers to help shape our models. We are going to take a slightly different approach to this introduction course, in that we are not going to talk about all of the Maya modeling tools, but rather focus on the tools that you are going to find most useful as you begin the modeling process. Once you have a better understanding of how these tools work together, you will be able to create your own modeling solutions and really come up with a workflow that is comfortable to you.”

  4. I’m not trying to belittle the uploader effort or smth, but DT is retarded. Intro to modeling in Maya 20XX, Max 20XX, etc. For every new version of every software they make a new intro.
    I guess the fools are those who buy their shit.

    • actualy i got that legaly. but i have to wait 2 weeks for delivery..
      and you should keep in your mind, this is made for noobs which do need intors. lol.

  6. I’m thinking of subbing to dt to learn maya and watch all tutorials. My isp gave me a warning for dl-ing illegal stuff. They can catch you for dl-ing stuff of the internet unless you’re in a 3d world country. :)

  8. dude digital tutors tuts are not shit they are they only who produce update traning kit every month according to the new features of software whaether it can be dynamic modeling riging or rendering i know their tuts are not great butbut they give u the enough knowledge about the new tools and becaus of that i know software much better in certain they produce powerful and knowledgeable tuts

  9. “Project Files Included” should be considered as a sort of a joke
    There is no “image plane”. So you can not follow the lessons without it.

    • download it from http://cgpeers.com/torrents.php?id=4027&torrentid=4024 it has project files correctly
