Modeling Interior Environment Using Maya Part 1/3

April 05, 2009
Category: 3D Modeling

Video Time: 9:24

In this first part of three series Modeling Interior Environments using Create breathtaking 3D and meet production demands with Maya, I cover the following:

- Fundamental principles of how I plan the project
- Setting deadlines and planning your work on day by day basis
- Importance of deadlines and why you should set them
- Reference and Research
- What you would want to learn when working on a new project you set for yourself

Second Part we will begin to set up a new scene in Maya, building a new modeling shelf, setting up a new project and setting proper scale.

Then we will begin to build the walls, windows, ceiling and the overall foundation of the environment.

Sounds cool. Sure you can break away from programming. Just do it a little at a time. Are you going to school for programming? or learning on your own? I am on 3dbuzz. I love that place. Thats where I discovered my passion and beginning of my knowledge of 3d. I am 'kgb' on there. What is your name on there? KeithG 05 Apr 2009, 18:10 ALEX /bow Congrats on the narration.
