bro - you're really good at this. It's not easy to be knowledgeable, informative, affable and perfectly paced all at the same time. I'd almost suspect you're a trained actor working as a teacher. well done mate.

Thank you for this! Really helpful! However I am confused to when to press 's' to set a keyframe. Don't I have to press it after my pose is done? Otherwise my progress is lost when I change keyframes, right?

@3dcoach937 2 жыл бұрын

You're right: If you don't have auto-keyframe on then you should create your pose and then hit 's' to Set a keyframe.

@samtoney2904 2 ай бұрын

im interested in learning maya particularly for animation, do you think it would be wise to learn other things like modelling too?

@3dcoach937 2 ай бұрын

It all depends on what you want to do/achieve. If it's to bring your own ideas to life then you'll have to become more of a generalist and learn a lot of stuff (modelling, sculpting, rigging, animation, surfacing, rendering). If you're looking to get into the animation industry then specializing in one particular thing (but knowing HOW to do the other things even if they're not your strength) would be more useful.

@bloodorangee Жыл бұрын

Awesome tutorial! I have a question though, I tried to set my keyframes but when I playback my animation nothing moves, it just stays in the last position I set it in. Any idea why this is happening?

@3dcoach937 Жыл бұрын

I'm using something called "Auto-Key" here. You may not have that on which means that you need to press 'S' every time you set a pose (otherwise it'll snap back to your previous pose). The "auto-key" toggle is in the lower-right corner of my screen, highlighted red, and kinda looks like the recycling logo.

Also how do you add texture

@3dcoach937 Жыл бұрын

Can you clarify the question? If you want to rotate you select a control curve and then select the rotation tool or press 'E' which is the hotkey for rotation.

@3dcoach937 Жыл бұрын

@@DiverseCuriosities If the rig was referenced correctly you should be able to hit the '6' key on your keyboard to view textures.
