Maya is fun

Yes it really is - its also horrifically complicated. Weeks ago I finished my Maya section fo this course. I wasn't able to write a blog during this time as I was too busy scratching my head and going "eh?".

For the project firstly We were given a weeks intensive Maya training - not very much, and for such a huge pro gramme we probably didn't even scratch the basics, not even the real basic basics.
After that we had 3 weeks to complete a set brief. The project I worked on was written by Dinamo and called for a character to approach and cross a river using some stepping stones.

Damn I wish we were using CB radios.
