Verified Purchase. Switching over from Lightwave 3d to Autodesk Maya was proving to be a daunting task at best I know one review here is recommending the video over the book but after having gone halfway through this book and also having the video mentioned This program is so in depth and can do so much, don’t do yourself the injustice of thinking you’re going to get everything out of a single video or book for that matter.

And, for what it’s worth, this is one of those times that the Kindle version of a book doesn’t appear to have any issues, so far so good. Update: Having completed this book, I can say Definitely one of the best ways to get started with Maya I’m already modeling, rigging, texturing, and animating and now know what specific areas I need to focus on to move forward.

Highly recommend this book. I bought this to give to a 9th grade student working on an animation competition.

It seems to have given this newbie all he needed to get started. The chapters guided him through making a solar system step by step. The other chapters continue in that fashion teaching new content step by step. He doesn’t get stuck or confused when using the book so I can spend time helping him think of his entry for the competition. For total beginners which my students generally are , this book is not well designed.

In the first section of Chapter 2 on navigation, the author describes selecting and deselecting objects I haven’t gotten to much further, I admit, but this minor oversight could lead to a beginner’s major headache.

So far, Lance Flavell’s ‘Beginning Blender’ has one of the best introductory texts for students new to 3D modeling; it builds skills and information in a logical well-paced way, balancing difficult challenges with easier ones. I really with the ‘Introducing Autodesk Maya’ series where the equivalent of Flavell’s book for Blender. I’ll keep going through it and hopefully I can revise this review later, but so far, this book is really best for someone already at least a little familiar with 3D software.

One person found this helpful. Good for total beginners in Maya, but as a user of several years, I was hoping for some in-depth tutorials. Full skeletal rigs including clavicles, blend shapes for facial expressions, xGen hair systems, more exploration of gravity fields and related dynamics, and maybe importing of sound could’ve improved the book.

Also, colored photos would’ve been much easier to follow over the black and white ones used, and using bold text for listed commands and operations would’ve helped likewise.
