3D Medical Animation in Autodesk Maya

If you learn best with projects and have always been interested in 3D animation, this is the course for you. If you're also in the medical field then this course will be even more beneficial. This course is geared toward the beginner but there's something for everyone in this course including fairly advanced material.

It's the kind of course you could start with and return to as you progress in your understanding of 3D. I will not just show you what buttons to press but I explain why we're pressing them. We'll create a plan of attack for the most complex series so we understand why we're taking the approach we are and how other approaches wouldn't work and why.

I've divided the course into four sections (with a bonus section):Cell DivisionWe'll create one cell dividing into two, and these two divide againChromosomesModel in a modular way so we can leverage Maya's MASH motion graphics toolsDNAThere is a beginner and advanced section so we can show a simple and more complex approachBloodflow (and heart bonus)Control a particle system with fields and animate blood flowWe will also dive deeper into fields with a bonus series on creating the iconic heart shape with red blood cellsThis is my most ambitious course I've made so far and I hope you enjoy it. I learned things creating it so I know you'll get something out of it as well. Who Am I.
