Final thoughts on Maya Fundamental

The course is awesome.

My brain is in for a great exercise. All those nodes make me think so hard that it felt so good.
Buzz is a hard maker, you'll fail if you can't follow instruction and the last 4 projects are hard. That is why this course is high in quality, that's why I love study with Buzz.

Everytime I finish one task, I hunger for more. I gain not only knowledge but confidence, motivation, and most importantly, I believe I'll have a good future in 3D animation.

I really like Buzz/Zak's humour. They are so so funny. I love those sound effects they make, wonder if they practice it everyday :)

This is an amazing journey, it just started. I can't wait for the next class.

Highly recommend anyone to join this class.

PS. Yes, it possible to complete this course in 4 weeks.

Buzz extend it 3 weeks but i didn't make use of it because I was away from my computer.

Maya Fundamental course Reflection - Final

I'm waiting for my Maya fundamental certificate....
YES, that mean I have complete the course...

The course is amazing...

The first project is relatively simple. It was designed to let us familiar with the workflow and interface. Buzz introduce deformer, collision and basic shader.

The second project quickly move you up to another. Complex shading network, character rigging, and expression will WOW you. I am amaze by each frame i animated. The final render leave me speechless.

The third project is HUGE... you get to create your own interface, extremely complex shading network with nodes. Best of all, snow, fire, explosion, smoke... The final result is stunning.

Maya Architecture is the best part of all in the course. Buzz/Zak will put maya in the palm of your hand and pouring knowledge into your brain.

Triangle Wave WHAT?

I'm almost finish everything except the last assignment Triangle wave and selective visibility.

The logic behind visibility seems confusing ... I'm stuck halfway through..

Almost complete project 3

Haven't update for a while, so here ya go.

yep.. I passed Project 2.... and the first part of project 3.
Now i'm working on animatic.

The alien abduction render is stunning, I'm so proud of the result.

Texturing in prj 3 is so great, I love it. It's boring anyone to watch but pretty fun to do.

This fundamental class is amazing. The stuff that i thought i could never learn are being taught in this fundamental class.

Ah, gotta get back to work.

No update

I took a long 3 days break. Just getting back 2 maya today. Almost finish all the shading.

Advance shading is really really interesting. Hope I can start rigging tomorrow.

Batman Begins? it borings.
I'm glad the city goes back to it original form, away from fantasy style.
Some action in the beginning is cool. But other than that, the movie is pretty dull.
