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。

Digital-Tutors Quick Start to Rigging in Maya Volume 4
Welcome to Volume 4 of the a Quick Start to Rigging in Maya, a series of specially constructed courses meant to be followed in sequence and interspersed with valuable exercises to reinforce learned concepts.
In this volume, we’ll build on the concepts covered in volume 3. We’ll start by learning how to create a facial skeleton with a dual jaw for more flexibility. We’ll learn how to work with Maya’s lattice deformer to achieve very organic deformations. We’ll even learn how to design our own fleshy eye rig to simulate skin-sliding effects around the eyelids. Overall, we’ll focus on building an animator-friendly facial rig.
These courses are designed to be taken in sequence so we really encourage you to start with Volume 3 before continuing with this section. We also encourage you to take advantage of the assignments that follow each volume. These assignments will allow you to take what you’ve learned and apply those tools and techniques to your own projects.
