For the modelling pipeline, we will be covering polygonal modeling, texturing, and UV mapping as we get our feet wet with some of these introductory-level tools. Next, we will dive right into some of the tech art and animation tools as we discuss various topics related to both character rigging and animation. And to put a final touch on the basics, we will then give an overview on the rendering within Maya. From there, we will move on to some of the more advanced and newer features of Maya 2017.
