In this series of lessons, we will help you get a strong understanding of
Maya
and how it works. You'll get the chance to work with many of the other Maya instructors here at Digital-Tutors who will show you how to use some of the major components of Maya.
In this course, we'll start by giving you the foundational skills and vocabulary you'll need in order to move around within Maya, and then we'll jump right into the Modeling section of the course. After completing the Modeling section, you'll get the chance try your hand at Texturing, Rigging, Animation, Dynamics, and finally, Lighting and Rendering your own animation. Our goal is not to weigh you down with technical information, but rather to help you form really good habits so you can have a successful future using Maya.

在这一连串的经验教训，我们将帮助您获得较强的理解，
Maya
和它是如何工作。你会在数字导师将向您展示如何使用一些玛雅人的主要组件与许多其他玛雅教官在这里工作的机会。
在此过程中，我们先来给你的基本技能和您需要才能在玛雅人中, 移动的词汇，然后我们会跳进建模部分课程的权利。在完成建模部分之后, 你会机会尝试你的手在纹理、 索具、 动画、 动力学，和最后，灯光和渲染自己的动画。我们的目标是不你压垮的技术信息，而是要帮助你养成真的好习惯，这样你可以有一个成功的未来使用玛雅人。
