Instructor’s Welcome Note:

(chimes) – Hi, I’m George Maestri and welcome to Up and Running with Maya LT. In this short course we’re going to give you a brief overview of Autodesk’s Maya LT software, which is a game asset creation package that is a subset of Autodesk’s popular Maya software. We’re going to go over the basic interface, as well as how to select and manipulate objects. Then we’re going to go ahead and create some polygonal models.
We’re going to texture them, apply materials, and then just do a little bit of animation. And finally, we’re going to export our assets into Unity. So, let’s get started with Up and Running in Maya LT.
