Welcome to the Autodesk Mayak course, we're so excited to have you here before you jump into using

00:06.390 --> 00:06.760
Maya.

00:06.780 --> 00:10.560
I want to introduce you to my amazing co instructor, Lucas.

00:10.830 --> 00:14.030
Hi, I'm Lucas Ridley and I'm the lead instructor on this course.

00:14.040 --> 00:19.350
I've been using Maya since about 2010, and I've worked as an animator on big budget Hollywood movies

00:19.560 --> 00:24.430
like Transformers Suicide Squad Ready Player one and Avengers Infinity War.

00:24.600 --> 00:27.900
I've also worked on video games like The Last of US Part two.

00:28.260 --> 00:33.880
In this course, I'm going to show you all the skills you need to get started on your career path as

00:33.880 --> 00:36.860
a professional 3D artist in the game or film industry.

00:36.960 --> 00:43.230
We design this course to take you from absolute beginner with no experience using Maya to advanced user

00:43.230 --> 00:48.360
feeling comfortable and confident using this application to create your own animations.

00:48.760 --> 00:54.300
I've included downloadable project files in each section so you can follow along and see how I design

00:54.300 --> 00:56.550
and animate the project that you'll be working on.

00:57.060 --> 01:03.600
This project is inspired by Pixar Skoko and it will leave you truly inspired and confident as a 3D animator.

01:03.990 --> 01:07.800
If you ever get stuck, please leave a question comment.

01:07.800 --> 01:11.430
Send me a message and we will get back to you as fast as we can.

01:11.940 --> 01:14.450
I'm excited to dive right in, so let's get going.
