Maya 是目前世界上最为优秀的三维动画的制作软件之一,主要是为了影视应用而研发的,所以在出世后不久就在《精灵鼠小弟》、《恐龙》等这些大片中一展身手。除了影视方面的应用外Maya在三维动画制作,影视广告设计,多媒体制作甚至游戏制作领域都有很出色的表现。初识Maya 是目前世界上最为优秀的三维动画的制作软件之一,它是Alias|Wavefront公司在人人素材论坛1998年才推出的三维制作软件。虽然相对于其他老牌三维制作软件来说Maya还是一个新生儿,但Maya凭借其强大的功能,友好的用户界面和丰富的视觉效果,一经推出就引起了动画和影视界的广泛关注,成为顶级的三维动画制作软件。
Modeling Rigging & Animating Vehicles in Maya With Jahirul Amin
This tutorial will run through modeling a classic car, I namely a Sunbeam Rapier Mark IV, while focusing on hard-surlaoe modelling techniques. Throughout the process we’re going to stick to basic modelling theories such as using quads and achieving evenly spaced faces. The latter enables sculpting in Mudbox or ZBrush if you need to, while also reducing the risk of stretching textures. There will also be an insistence on creating plenty of bevelled edges. This is in order to stick closely to real-world examples and avoid a flat CG version of reality. I also used an Oxford Diecast model to have a physical reference, as well as numerous images and videos I’ve found online to help me piece the model together. The more information you gather, the less guesswork you have to do inside Maya. To briefly explain the process, we’ll first draw over the reference to get a basic topology before hitting CG. This is mainly preparatory work that will stand you in good stead later on. In this tutorial the draw-overs provide the image planes in Maya and act as a rough guide as you block out the model. The further we progress, the more we have to rely on our wits and intuition to get a good edge flow. Just as with a drawing or painting, we’ll block out the major forms to provide a solid foundation before going anywhere near finer detail. The elements of the car are all modelled separately, as they would be in the real world, which makes it easier to rig for animation if needed. The good news here is that you only have to model half a car, as you can mirror it over. One piece of advice that I’ll leave you with is not to be afraid to abandon ship. By this I mean that if something isn’t working, don’t be scared of scrapping it, putting the kettle on and starting again. The time lost trying to rework and tweak a section that’s got off to a bad start can be huge and soul-destroying, whereas second-time-around edits can be quicker.
