whats the deference in all this bunch of softwears .

blender , C4d , XSI , Maya , xna , mari , modo , etc and etc ...

if they can all do exactly the same stuff and no one of them is better than the other ...

[MrAnimeAdam]

I am in my first year of university and I'm studying Digital Animation. I will be on completion putting all my animations onto Youtube. Even though I only have Animation created on Maya so far there are more coming.

I would really appreciate if people would subscribe to my channel or even just give me some constructive comments about them so i am able to enhance my skills.

[PorchGlider]

once again maya creates something great that is not complete !!

you should be able to bring in trax clips and poses directly into the Camera sequencer....Basically what I"m saying is the Camera sequencer and Trax should be one complete system so you can truly work in a non linear way !! C'mon Autodesk stop teasing me and fix trax and integrate it with the camera sequencer

[mitchrichie]

Are the source files for this sequence available? I'd like to play with this scene.

[nestorreviews]

Cool video. Check out my channel for very cool product reviews that can help your business go viral. Get more views, friends, and subs. Explode your channel!!!

[PorchGlider]

It is very unfortunate that it appears the Camera Sequencer and Maya's Trax editor are not integrated. ....Maybe I'm wrong about this.

It seems to me the camera sequencer is a great feature but you should be able to put your character clips and poses on the same timeline and work together.

Please Autodesk make this possible your so close but still to far with this.

[seriousinjury07]

Thank you for responding back. When you have the time can you do a tutorial on how to create a human character and show how to rig it.

[ak23funsizd]

it sucks that I can't use it 

[seriousinjury07]

how do you add sound to your maya scene

[kiashadowwave]

@seriousinjury07 i don't believe it's possible to add sound to a maya scene

[yksnimus]

how to mirror a pose? (not copyng, just mirroring )

[Dariusc123456]

Nice Animation. Was that live rendering or was it just the software rendering (no render effects)?

[chipsunlimited]

Very good toturial to discover the new features of maya 2011!

[FMC19]

It seems Maya 2011 got few Bug's ?????

[HANGER187]

@FMC19 when does it not?

[RoadRunnerMusic]

I'm selling this product for 90 dollars. Message me for more information.

[ErrorrPerfect]

@RoadRunnerMusic its over 3,800$ why would you sell it? you must have paid alot to begin with :D

[Nantchev]

Really, really good animation.

I have no idea how you get the engine smoke and fire animation, would you please mind informing how you did that?

[ErrorrPerfect]

@Nantchev he used a fluid container and some particle effects its not easy but its hell fun

[SUPERCR0WL]

@Manifest222 & @Xytos

Stfu. You are both amateur.

[THExSCARFACExSOCIETY]

3ds max is waaaayayayayayaayayayay better

[ErrorrPerfect]

@THExSCARFACExSOCIETY How :D

[THExSCARFACExSOCIETY]

@ErrorrPerfect fuck you it just is now stfu

[ErrorrPerfect]

@THExSCARFACExSOCIETY soooo? your saying it wasent before but it is now hmmmm well ill never touch that waist of hard drive space in 7 lifetimes Maya ftw

[Manifest222]

How would you go into a mesh, and duplicate an edge, or a loop of edges?

[Xytos]

@Manifest222 noob

[Manifest222]

@Xytos Hahaha. Considering I've used Blender for two years, and have made even WoW-like environments in real time thanks to uv map textures, I'm probably farther down the spectrum than you my friend. The only reason I was asking was because I was trying to switch over to Maya, because I heard it was a bit better or something. Also, I figured out the solution in like, 2 minutes after I posted the comment. Figure out more information before you initiate your insecurity.

[Xytos]

@Manifest222 stupid noob trying to cover up for a lack of knowledge. how embarrassing.

[Manifest222]

@Xytos Hahaha, your calling someone a noob. That's just ridiculous, you don't even have any logic in your argument. This is just sad, your just cornering yourself more and more. You completely started this argument the wrong way, there for, because of you, it will end the wrong way. Again, you really should learn to not corner yourself so much. Later in life, like when you actually grow up, it'll screw you up and down and all around. I feel sorry for you.

[Xytos]

@Manifest222 dumb noob

[Manifest222]

@Xytos Now your just messin with me xD

[Xytos]

@Manifest222 newbie

[Manifest222]

@Xytos :D I just got a new mouse :D

[TheRealAuxiliary]

@Manifest222 agreed

[sureshutubr]

very nice and more helpful for the composting work. 

[mdupre0423]

this is going to help streamline things alot!

[BharadwaD]

hey dude i love this video

[Ragnarosofdarkness]

this a good animation program? if not than can any1 point me out some program where i could make a character n like animate it to make it move n do all sorts of stuff

[Domenicozzo]

@Ragnarosofdarkness

This is a huge professional animation 3d editor.

[Ragnarosofdarkness]

so like i could use it in videos or games?

[Domenicozzo]

@Ragnarosofdarkness

Yes, Maya is one of the most complete 3d programs out there, check autodesk website out, they also have 3D Studio Max, an other great 3d program.

[Continuum7]

dang I have been using maya for years, seeing it with a dark interface is really strange. Is there an option in preferences to put it back to classic?

[ErrorrPerfect]

@Continuum7 there should be some custom UI tutorials on the-area website i love the Dark ui it feels better on High contrast lcd screens and realy smooth but it has many flaws with most objects IN maya being dark themselvs going unnoticed and buttons not being seen really weird

[FMC19]

Very Nice video Guys!! But will Maya 2011 work on windows 7 with 32 / 64 ?

[jazzerako]

@FMC19 yes man :) just got this software yesterday. Works on my windows 7 64-bit flawlessly :)

[Quizcos]

@FMC19 I run it on Windows 7 64bit at it works perfectly.

[itchycitizen]

They stole Cinema 4D's material editor and the UI looks like C4D too !

but i love the way it looks and works now, about time !!

[DiegoArmandoJimenez]

Just as a note, for your possible response: I have tryied the different video formats on my machine (Inteli i7, 16Gb RAM, NVidia XFX 6500, Windows 7 64-bits) I don't know if that matters

[DiegoArmandoJimenez]

Hey, can you tell me which formats does Maya supports in the Camera Sequencer? 'Cause I've been trying a lot of different video formats and it doesn't work. Please respond.

Thanx

[ALink2theHonest1]

Maya is so kewl!

I want to learn all about this.

[glideordie]

I really wish I continued studying Maya since college (in 2003). Oh well, I am inspired to re-learn with every new release!

[Pakawee]

So when do they usually release?

[thewolfinc]

I wished they put an option of having bright UI as well, I myself hate the new UI, it is very confusing. If some of you loved it, good for you, but how about us who didn't like it? Shouldn't autodesk put an option for their users?

[letmego11]

@dangraphic No I am talking about windows and menus colors. Is it possible to change the the windows color back to the bright gray color? I don't think so!!

[letmego11]

@dangraphic I didn't get what u mean, add -style Cleanlooks where? to what?

and also please be polite, saying moron to someone you don't know is not appropriate.

[tweekskratch]

@letmego11 the old gray is ugly as crap.

[casunshine84]

@tweekskratch the new grey and dark writing is ugly as crap and idiotic. how about white background black letters so we can read without squinting.

[casunshine84]

@tweekskratch old grey and black lettering is idiotic. also sad how they have not bothered to increase the framerate of the viewport animation so it doesnt look sucky and jittery lol.

[AndrewCurrieArt]

Agreed - SO excited to finally have a nice-looking interface. This camera-sequencing feature could be really cool to play with edits right in the software and interact with animations as clips.

[MotherRat]

Will Maya 2011 actually have Snow Leopard support...?

[jaminunit]

I just wan better text tools! I work in TV and the most thing we do is type! Please better beveling options! more text stuff!

[SuperKingJoseph]

were can i go to buy this

[sushilkthakur]

Whoa~! look at the sys req. of maya 2010......

Intel® Pentium® 4 or higher proc.

2k ram

win 7 or win vista or win XP sp2.

4 GB free HDD space.

and a GFX card.....

It's going on and on and on........

I remember when I got maya 4.0. it's was using as low system as a flash player uses now.

come-on I still have a faster P.C. then your req. run autodesk run. for a i7 and 16GB ram with 2Gb gfx card.

LOLz

[TheMWGriffin]

OMG!!! Maya's new UI kicks ass! I've been waiting for this for soooooo long. Thank you autodesk!!!!

[VisionHD]

@TheMWGriffin Its a same UI, just dark color scheme...

[TheMWGriffin]

@VisionHD Sorry bro but youit is most definitely not the same GUI as previous versions. The GUI for Maya 2011 is based on Nokia's QT framework unlike previous versions. You can not only tell that it is significantly different just by looking at it, but you can also read Autodesk's press release that states that that is the case.

[murohazzard]

I love how Maya FCP integration now ! Good move Autodesk!

[sengstation]

NICE ! ! l love maya 2011^^

[p44v9n]

woah, forget accelerated 3D.... MAYA'S NOT UGLY ANYMORE :)

dockable panels <3

[scotthyldahl]

@bittergourd72 I hope that it's as simple as just being able to run it in 64 bit. Finally. Anybody from autodesk following this and can offer some insight?

[Autodeskarama]

@scotthyldahl - Hi from Autodesk. Yes, we're monitoring this thread and yes to @bittergourd72, it is "as simple as just being able to run Maya in 64 bit".

[scotthyldahl]

Can you give me any other details as to what the specs of the machine are that are running this tutorial? Like graphics card for instance? Thanks for your reply.

[Autodeskarama]

Sure, the demo was created on a 2.8ghz MacPro computer and the video card is a nVIDIA GeForce 8800.

[bassMacko]

@scotthyldahl system requirements can be found at autodesk(dot)com/maya

[scotthyldahl]

@ElfenLiedd i'll admit macs have their strengths and weeknesses, but obviously it's possible to get them not to suck, as is demonstrated here. I'm starting to believe it's a lack of good software development, not inferior hardware.

[bharathi3d]

This is grt feature...like the luk n feel. after long time Maya interface is change a lot. feel fresh and its luking a bit like cinema 4d...

[scotthyldahl]

I noticed that this demo is given on a Mac.  I've never seen an official demo of Maya given on a mac. Being a maya on mac user, i've always been frustrated at the slower performance and lack of professional graphics card options. But this demo machine seems to perform extremely well, with high quality hardware rendering in the viewport, lighting and shadows even. What are the specs on this mac that are providing such fantastic performance results?! Anybody know? I need a setup like this.

[bittergourd72]

@scotthyldahl I think it would be the 64-bit nature of Maya that's giving it the performance boost more than anything else.

[bassMacko]

@bittergourd72 64bit lets you access more memory but doesn't necessarily make things faster

[ElfenLiedd]

@scotthyldahl true, macs suck!

[Autodeskarama]

@scotthyldahl - Thanks for the compliment. I wanted to respond to your post and give you this feedback from our in-house Autodesk guy who built the demo content: "There is nothing special about my Mac it is running a relatively inexpensive nVidia 8800. When I build my demos I approach it kind of like doing a game. For this demo I baked all of the lighting into the textures, set up some real-time shadows under the spaceMan, and added a little hardware fog to the environment."

[LeFrok]

About time that we can use multiple audio files...

[kogi04]

"Hotride" Prodigy soundtrack? You've got good taste in music :)
