Video сourse: Skillshare – Maya for Beginners: Dynamic FX

In this final section of the “Maya for Beginner” series we will cover how to create interesting animated dynamic effects through simulations. You can start with this section if you like but I highly recommend taking one of the other sections first as this is a more advanced topic for a true beginner and I would recommend the order: modeling, texturing, rigging, animation, and then this course.

We will cover:

Bullet Physics for Rigid Body Simulations
Shattering Objects for Simulating
nHair Rope Dynamics
nCloth Dynamics
MASH Dynamics (Maya’s motion graphics tools)
Bifrost Dynamics (Liquid and Smoke)

This section will give you a very broad introduction to what’s possible in Maya for simulating different types of effects.

There are several mini-lessons throughout the course but we will be mainly focusing on creating a large animated scene that I will provide the character animation for and it will be up to you to create all the dynamic effects in the shot.
