- Introduction to MAYAThis comprehensive course in Autodesk Maya is designed to build a strong foundation in 3D modeling, animation, lighting, texturing, and rendering. Widely used in film, gaming, and advertising industries, Maya equips students with the skills required to bring imagination to life through professional-level animation4
- Modeling BasicsThis course is designed to introduce students to the world of 3D modeling using Autodesk Maya, one of the industry’s leading software tools used in animation, VFX, gaming, and digital design. Whether you're an aspiring 3D artist, animator, or game designer, this course will equip you with the technical skills and creative understanding needed to model complex 3D assets.6
- Texturing & UV Mappinghis course is designed to equip students with in-depth knowledge and practical skills in texturing 3D models using Autodesk Maya. You will learn how to create realistic surface details, UV unwrap complex models, and apply high-quality textures for game assets, animations, and film projects. From understanding different materials and shaders to using advanced techniques like bump, normal, and displacement mapping — this course builds a strong foundation in texture art. What You Will Learn: Introduction to Texturing in Maya Role of textures in 3D modeling and animation Understanding shading networks and materials UV Mapping Techniques UV unwrapping methods (Automatic, Planar, Cylindrical, etc.) Layout organization and UV distortion fixes Working with Materials & Shaders Standard Surface Shader Lambert, Blinn, Phong, and Arnold Materials Understanding PBR (Physically-Based Rendering)5
- Lighting & RenderingThis course provides a comprehensive understanding of lighting techniques in Autodesk Maya. Students will explore the artistic and technical aspects of lighting 3D environments, characters, and scenes for animation, games, and VFX. The course emphasizes both natural and artificial lighting setups, mood creation, and industry-standard rendering workflows.5
- RiggingThis course is designed for aspiring 3D animators, rigging artists, and technical directors who want to master the art of character and object rigging using Autodesk Maya. You will learn the fundamental principles and technical workflows of rigging, enabling you to create functional rigs for both stylized and realistic characters, props, and mechanical objects.5
- AnimationThis comprehensive course introduces students to Autodesk Maya, a leading 3D animation software used in film, television, gaming, and advertising industries. Learners will gain hands-on experience in 3D modeling, rigging, texturing, lighting, animation, and rendering, developing industry-ready skills to create high-quality 3D animations and visual effects.5
- Dynamics and EffectsThis course is designed to provide learners with an in-depth understanding of the dynamic simulation and visual effects tools available in Autodesk Maya. Students will explore particle systems, soft and rigid body dynamics, fluid effects, cloth simulations, Bifrost, and nParticles. The course emphasizes real-world project creation and cinematic FX shots to build industry-ready skills.4
- Project Work & Final OutputThis capstone segment of the Maya course is designed to provide learners with hands-on industry-oriented experience through the execution of a complete 3D project from concept to final output. It integrates all the key aspects of Autodesk Maya—modeling, texturing, lighting, animation, rendering, and post-production—into a cohesive production pipeline. Students will work individually or in teams to plan, design, and develop a portfolio-ready animated sequence or 3D scene, simulating real-world production environments.3
