CG 5153D Animation Workshop

The course fully explores Maya’s animation capabilities and directs students from concept understanding to hands-on experimenting through the entire process of Maya’s animation operations. Students gain a thorough understanding of all of the components of Maya’s animation process and the state-of-the- art 3D computer graphics technology of its animation system. For every topic covered by the lecture, there are corresponding in-class demonstrations to ensure that students learn to undertake the work on their own. Three projects are designed to mark the learning stages accomplished, as students are required to utilize class learning in their projects.
