MAYA Basics Training

Create 3D worlds and animations with MAYA

Autodesk MAYA is the market leader in the creation of 3D content for advertising and film post production and has been used in blockbusters such as Jurassic Park and Avatar. In the meantime the field of application of 3D software has also become indispensable in many other areas such as productive visualization. In automotive advertising, vehicles are often used as 3D graphics, as are product prototypes from everyday use such as razors and cream pots. In our basic course you will learn basic working methods and functions. Then you will be able to create your own photorealistic 3D visualizations.

For further information, we recommend our advanced levels. We are also happy to offer you an individual MAYA training.
