Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

twist deformation...

I need help. I can't seem to get this prop fin to twist. I want to know how to use the twist deformer to twist this. When I create the twist deformer and change the angles, nothing happens. Why not???

you more than likely do not have the divisions in the geometry necessary for a twist. This has been mentioned in a few other posts as well.
