In three years, I went from having absolutely no experience in 3D Animation to working at DreamWorks Animation Studios teaching just about all of the 3D software used to make movies! After 2 years there, I left to try freelance / independent content creation on KZfaq for awhile, before I head back to Feature Film!
This is my journey- the entire process from when I decided I wanted to be an animator until I eventually get there, and everything along the way that will make it possible.
Whether you're chasing a similar dream, or just interested to see where mine takes me, subscribe to follow along with the incredible journey that it takes to become an animator!

The first one shouldn't even be a tip. It should be the first thing to be taught in a Maya class. Also you don't need to set the project once you have created the new one. Maya sets it there automatically. What you should do instead, is close Maya and open it again, in order for it to maintain the new project for the next time. Set project is useful for when you need to change from your current one to another. Setting/creating a project is crucial, because it makes your Maya project portable, and also it tells the software where to retrieve textures and all the assets connected to the scenes you're working on. I would say that setting the project is mandatory. Great video and great tips! Your contents are always top notch!

Yooooo Sir Wade, great seeing you buddy. Dont know if you remember me, Luis Alcala, I was at DreamWorks when you guys were working on Trolls. You taught me a lot about Linux and the software used there. I left with Dramworks Nova where Archie Donato was my boss. Anyway, glad you are doing well. Great video man. Keep it up.

@gercektaskala2275 5 жыл бұрын

Hey Sir Wade this was good, even though the most of them I already knew. Could you do these type of videos also about Animation Layers. It is not a problem to find tutorials about this but to find someone who speaks well and precisely is rare. It could also be a basic or also a intermediate explanation of animation Layers. And my opinion is that sometimes the backgorund music is too loud. You have a good voice and not hearing it is bad. Greetings from Cologne/Germany

@Mikaelj 5 жыл бұрын

haha good one. Tho two or 3 tips will fix itself when you work in studio environment and pipeline. When we open a scene in maya, the browser automaticly sets the project for you. And we have a playblast script that always blast the .mov or png(if you want blast with alpha) in the right folder with comment and uploads it into shotgun In the hidden menu i was expected the space hotbox or the shift/ctrl rightclick :)

@MauroSanna 5 жыл бұрын

That's because your company has a subscription to Shotgun, which makes everything automated, even the naming convention. His video is for those who work freelance or do not work at all and trying to learn the software.

Hi. Is there any free auto lip sync for maya? The only one i could find was in Advanced Skeleton plugin. But the problem is that it only supports a given number of languages. So it does not allow my country language. I know other softeare such as iclone which supports automatic lip sync from any voice file regardless of the language. I hope there is a free plugin to do aunatic lip sync in maya.

I have a question sir wade. I am currently a undergraduate in my gaming artist major at my community college in Boston and I am set to graduate next year in spring 2020 and I still don't know which school to apply to. My dream is to one day move out to Cali and work in a big gaming studio like naughty dog or anywhere at a place where I can make a good living doing what i love. I feel kinda lost in life and I've asked a lot of people such as my professor and other graduates that have finished my program on where to go. one graduate from my school said that I should invest in animation mentor and pay the $2000 but I want to also go to school and finish with my 4 year degree and go on with my life. your videos really have been my go to's when it comes to animating and i really am grateful for your content. I was just hoping if you could recommend something or anything man please. I'm really feeling lost on what to do but I like animating.

Btw, I want to know about how to work with play bust and why sometimes perspective viewport getts sputtered when after playing animation (sometime actually) and when after playbust I saw it plays smoothly .. so, why it sluttered when it's playing on the perspective viewport? Will u please make a video on it ... Please

@takahashierik 5 жыл бұрын

You're asking why your animation stutters when watching in the viewport? That's because Maya is playing your animation in real time, that is, calculation every image as it plays. If your scene is heavy your viewport playback will be slower. In playblast the video is already rendered so it can play in real speed
