INTRODUCTION OF MAYA

It is 3D computer graphics software that runs on Microsoft Windows, Mac

OS and Linux, originally developed by Alias Systems Corporation (formerly Alias|

Wavefront ) and currently owned and developed by Autodesk, Inc .Maya 1.0 was

released in February 1998. Following a series of acquisitions, Maya was bought by

Autodesk in 2005. Under the name of the new parent company, Maya was renamed

Autodesk Maya. However, the name "Maya" continues to be the dominant name

used for the product. It is used to create interactive 3D applications, includingvideo games, animated film, TV series, or visual effects. The product is named

after the Sanskrit word Maya (my), the Hindu concept of illusion. Users

define a virtual workspace (scene) to implement and edit media of a particular

project. Scenes can be saved in a variety of formats, the default being .mb (Maya

Binary). Maya exposes a node graph architecture. Scene elements are node-based,

each node having its own attributes and customization. As a result, the visual

representation of a scene is based entirely on a network of interconnecting nodes,

depending on each other's information. For the convenience of viewing these

networks, there is a dependency and a directed acyclic graph. Alongside its more

recognized visual workflow, Maya is equipped with a cross-platform scripting

language, called Maya Embedded Language. MEL , is provided for scripting and a

means to customize the core functionality of the software, since many of the tools

and commands used are written in it. Code can be used to engineer modifications,

plug-ins or be injected into runtime. Outside these superficial uses of the language,

user interaction is recorded in MEL, allowing even inexperienced users to

implement subroutines. Scene information can thus be dumped, extension .ma,editable outside Maya in any text editor.

Features of Maya

Autodesk Maya 2013 software delivers practical toolsets to help create and

maintain the modern, open pipelines you need to address todays challenging 3Danimation, visual effects, game development, and post production projects.

Powerful new toolsets for dynamic simulation, animation, and rendering offer newlevels of creativity, while everyday productivity enhancements help you finish

faster. In addition, the Open Data initiative introduced in Maya 2013 offers tools tohelp facilitate parallel workflows and better complexity handling.

Expt 1

Create canonical tower using NURBS modeling and do its rendering.

Steps:-

1.Select modeling from main menu bar

2. Click create NURBS PRIMITIVE Cylinders.

3. Click create NURBS PRIMITIVE Cone.

4. Click create NURBS PRIMITIVE Cube.

5. Press 5 to solidify the primitives.

6. Place Cone above the Cylinder so that both axes comes along together.

7. Use rotate tool and place the cube above the cone so that its vertex touch the

Cone.
