In this lesson we will learn how to use a motion path to drive a sled's animation in Maya.

This is a great exercise in stacking deformers. This candy cane is all procedures and deformers!

In this lesson we will learn how to transfer a UV set between two polygon objects that do not have the same number of points.

Topics covered in this tutorial:, Hiding geometry, Refining the selection, Working with SubTool visibility, Various attributes of the Extract command.

Topics covered in this tutorial: Drawing an action line, Using a topological mask, Working with transpose to re-pose a model, Softening and hardening a mask

In this tutorial we will learn how to use Maya's Level of Detail feature to speed up our renders.

Landscapes need some randomness for them to look real. One way to do this is using dynamics to mold the terrain. This can create a random landscape, but is difficult to control. Fortunately, the Transform Component tool is a fast way to move points irregularly, creating the same effect but faster.

In this lesson we will learn how to create a simulated explosion using the input bias as a way to adjust the color in the 2D container.

Because the UV Texture Editor lays each UV layout one on top of the other, by drag-selecting you select every edge or face from the selected objects. Remember the UV Texture Editor if you need to change duplicated objects quickly!

In this lesson we will learn how to connect Fluids to shader nodes to create some really interesting shaders. The fluids can mix and react all while being projected onto a surface. This can be a great tool for creating things like transforming textures in X-Men.
